Nup43 activators encompass a range of chemicals known to modify key cellular processes, which can, in turn, influence the function or status of Nup43 within the nuclear pore complex. Some of these chemicals, such as Forskolin, modify intracellular signaling cascades like the cAMP pathway, which plays fundamental roles in numerous cellular processes, including those that could intersect with NPC function.
Phosphorylation, a primary mechanism by which protein function can be modified, is a recurrent theme among the suggested activators. Chemicals such as Okadaic acid, PMA, and Calyculin A exert their influence through the modulation of protein kinases and phosphatases, thereby affecting the phosphorylation status of nucleoporins, possibly including Nup43. This demonstrates the intricate connection between broader cellular signaling pathways and the specialized function of nuclear transport mediated by the NPC. Similarly, chemicals like U0126, MG132, and the PI3K inhibitors Wortmannin and LY294002 further emphasize the diverse signaling pathways that can potentially interact with NPC components.
