Abstract

In metazoa, nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are assembled from constituent nucleoporins by two distinct mechanisms: in the re-forming nuclear envelope at the end of mitosis and into the intact nuclear envelope during interphase. Here, we show that the nucleoporin Nup153 is required for NPC assembly during interphase but not during mitotic exit. It functions in interphasic NPC formation by binding directly to the inner nuclear membrane via an N-terminal amphipathic helix. This binding facilitates the recruitment of the Nup107-160 complex, a crucial structural component of the NPC, to assembly sites. Our work further suggests that the nuclear transport receptor transportin and the small GTPase Ran regulate the interaction of Nup153 with the membrane and, in this way, direct pore complex assembly to the nuclear envelope during interphase.

C

To confirm the direct membrane binding of full-length Nup153, we turned to the human ortholog, due to the low expression yield of the Xenopus Nup153. Human Nup153 possesses 42% amino acid identity and 55% similarity with the Xenopus protein. The fluorescently labeled human Nup153 efficiently bound GUVs ( Figure 1G). The corresponding membrane-binding-deficient mutation (V47E in the human protein) abrogated the membrane interaction.
