17
Q

Inner membrane contains several integral proteins

18

Diseases of nuclear Lamina

20
Q

Nuclear pores

A

Around the nuclear envelope

21
Q

Nuclear pores provides communication

A

Between nucleoplasm and cytoplasm

22
Q

Nuclear proteins are synthesized on

A

Free ribosomes and released into the cytoplasm

23
Q

Protiens entering the nucleus contain signals

24
Q

NLS

A

One or two short amino acid sequences
Rich in lysine and arginin

25
NLS are recognized by
Importin
26
Nucleoporins contain amino acid richin
Phenylalanine and glycine (fg repeats)
27
Fg repeats serve as
Binding sites for import receptor
28
GAP
Converts ran GTP → ran GDP
29
GEF
GDP → GTP
30
