Hypothetical model of SUN2 arrangement in the NE. (A) Standing model of SUN2 monomer inside the NE, where the KASH-lid of SUN2 is autoinhibited by α1–α3 helices, (B) Our hypothetical model of SUN2 monomer in the NE, where CC1 bends at residue E452 into two separate α-helices, CC1α1 and CC1α2. Additionally, in this model, the KASH-lid is not autoinhibited. E452 (shown in red) is involved in the monomer–trimer transition and mediates the association of the SUN domain with the CC regions of SUN2 through Ca2+ binding.
