| Abstract | Ran is a small GTPase required for nuclear transport in eukaryotic cells [Gorlich, D. & Mattaj, I. W. (1996) Science 271, 1513-1518]. Mutants in Ran also show defects in mRNA processing, cell cycle regulation, and other aspects of nuclear function [Rush, M. G., Drivas, G. & D'Eustachio, P. (1996) BioEssays 18, 103-112; Sazer, S. (1996) Trends Cell Biol. 6, 81-85]. In an effort to understand the role of Ran in these diverse processes, we previously characterized 10 Ran interacting proteins (Rips) from Xenopus egg extracts. In this report, we present further characterization of a complex containing three of these Rips: p340(RanBP2), p88, and p18. We have cloned the Xenopus homologue of RanGAP1, and we show here that p88 is a modified form of this protein. In RanGAP assays, the p340(RanBP2)-p88-p18 complex contains GTPase-activating protein activity, indicating that RanGAP1 is not inactivated by modification. Rather, modification of RanGAP1 appears to be linked to its association with p340(RanBP2) because we did not observe unmodified RanGAP1 in p340(RanBP2) immunoprecipitates. We have also characterized p18, and we found that it is the Xenopus homologue of Ubc9p, an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme that is required for cell cycle regulation [Seufert, W., Futcher, B. & Jentsch, S. (1995) Nature (London) 373, 78-81]. Using antibodies directed against Xenopus Ubc9p, we have confirmed that Ubc9p associates with p340(RanBP2) in Xenopus extracts. These results suggest Ubc9p's role in cell cycle regulation may involve either modification of nuclear transport substrates or the nuclear transport machinery. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
