A gradient of matrix-bound FGF-2 and perlecan is available to lens epithelial cells (2014)
Journal Article
Wu, W., Tholozan, F., Goldberg, M., Bowen, L., Wu, J., & Quinlan, R. (2014). A gradient of matrix-bound FGF-2 and perlecan is available to lens epithelial cells. Experimental Eye Research, 120, 10-14. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.exer.2013.12.004

Fibroblast growth factors play a key role in regulating lens epithelial cell proliferation and differentiation via an anteroposterior gradient that exists between the aqueous and vitreous humours. FGF-2 is the most important for lens epithelial cell... Read More about A gradient of matrix-bound FGF-2 and perlecan is available to lens epithelial cells.

Entry into the nuclear pore complex is controlled by a cytoplasmic exclusion zone containing dynamic GLFG-repeat nucleoporin domains (2014)
Journal Article
Fiserova, J., Spink, M., Richards, S., Saunter, C., & Goldberg, M. (2014). Entry into the nuclear pore complex is controlled by a cytoplasmic exclusion zone containing dynamic GLFG-repeat nucleoporin domains. Journal of Cell Science, 127, 124-136. https://doi.org/10.1242/jcs.133272

Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) mediate nucleocytoplasmic movement. The central channel contains proteins with phenylalanine-glycine (FG) repeats, or variations (GLFG, glycine-leucine-phenylalanine-glycine). These are ‘intrinsically disordered’ and oft...
