We are excited to share the revised version of our preprint elucidating the role of Annulate Lamellae in the assembly of Nuclear Pore Complexes #NPCs during early interphase.
Big thanks to Junyan Lin and all collaborators for their fantastic work! 🙏🎉

RanBP2-dependent annulate lamellae drive nuclear pore assembly and nuclear expansion
Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) enable nucleocytoplasmic transport. While NPCs primarily localize to the nuclear envelope (NE), they also appear in cytoplasmic endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membranes calle...

We are very excited that our work on Torsins, dystonia and NE membrane fusion is out on bioRxiv: doi.org/10.1101/2025...
Fantastic collaboration with Madhav Jagannathan and the labs of Gautam Dey and Stefano Vanni!

Dystonia-associated Torsins sustain CLCC1 function to promote membrane fusion of the nuclear envelope for NPC biogenesis
DYT1 early-onset dystonia is a severe, incurable disorder of the central nervous system caused by mutations in the gene encoding Torsin1A (Tor1A, DYT1). Torsins are ER-resident AAA+-ATPases implicated...
