While Nup60 is the unique target of genotoxic stress within the nuclear basket that probably belongs to the SUMO-mediated DNA damage response pathway, both Nup2 and Nup60 show a dramatic increase in SUMOylation upon osmotic stress, with Nup2 SUMOylation being enhanced in Nup60 SUMO-deficient mutant yeast strains.

Preferred Names: nucleoporin NUP2

NP_013439.1

Nucleoporin involved in nucleocytoplasmic transport; binds to either the nucleoplasmic or cytoplasmic faces of the nuclear pore complex depending on Ran-GTP levels; also has a role in chromatin organization; involved with Nup60p in nuclear basket remodeling during meiosis; Cdc5p-mediated phosphorylation of Nup60p leads to detachment and reattachment of nuclear basket
