FIGURE 1:

Localization of membrane-embedded reporter proteins encoding mammalian NLS sequences. (A) N-terminal GFP fusions of (putative) NLS regions of Sun2, Lem2, LBR, or Lap2β, the intrinsically disordered linker region (L), and first transmembrane segment (TM) of Heh2 localize to the NE-ER network, like the TM of Heh2 (GFP-TM), and do not mediate nuclear accumulation like the NLS of Heh2 (GFP-h2NLS-L-TM). (B) Whereas a C-terminally GFP fusion of a TM localizes to the NE-ER network (TM-GFP), fusion of this TM to the ID linker region of Heh2 and the NLS regions of Heh2 or Pom121 (TM-L-h2NLS-GFP and TM-L-P121NLS290-484-GFP, respectively) results in strong NE accumulation of the protein. This accumulation is lost in the conditional Kap95 knockout. Scale bars, 5 μm.
