Book Chapter
Kiseleva, E., Richardson, A. C., Fiserova, J., Strunov, A. A., Spink, M. C., Johnson, S. R., & Goldberg, M. W. (2014). Imaging Yeast NPCs: From Classical Electron Microscopy to Immuno-SEM. In Nuclear Pore Complexes and Nucleocytoplasmic Transport - Methods (59-79). Elsevier/Academic Press. https://doi.org/10.1016/b978-0-12-417160-2.00003-5

Electron microscopy (EM) has been used extensively for the study of nuclear transport as well as the structure of the nuclear pore complex (NPC) and nuclear envelope. However, there are specific challenges faced when carrying out EM in one of the mai... Read More about Imaging Yeast NPCs: From Classical Electron Microscopy to Immuno-SEM.

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...
