• See "News and Views" commentary by Rexach: "identifies a cellular protein that recognizes inner nuclear membrane (INM) targeting signals. This finding provides the missing link for the transport of large inner nuclear membrane proteins as they travel from the cytosolic face of the endoplasmic reticulum to the INM."



• Mechanism of Trafficking of Integral Proteins from the Endoplasmic Reticulum to the Inner Nuclear Membrane



• BV/ODV E26 Exhibits Bi-directional Trafficking



• Identification of the Accessory Proteins Involved in Protein Trafficking

• Sorting of Nuclear Envelope - Targeted Proteins at the ER Membrane
