Abstract excerpt
We have identified a temperature-sensitive allele of the yeast divergent actin gene ACT2, act2-1, which displays defects in nuclear pore complex (NPC) structure and nuclear import at the restrictive temperature. Although defective in nuclear import, act2-1 cells still selectively retain reporter proteins in the nucleus, and by indirect immunofluorescence the actin cytoskeleton appears normal. Previous studies in...
