Document Summary

Mf, mt, and if = attach to nucleus. Change in shape of these can pull the nucleus open. The nucleus has a lipid bilayer made up of hydrophobic and hydrophilic portions. The outer membrane is continuous with the endoplasmic reticulum which is important for protein synthesis. If and actin help bind the nucleus to the plasma membrane. In order to enter the nucleus they have to have specific key to get through the membrane. W/o it the protein can not enter the nucleus. Nuclear matrix: fibrous network in nucleus that helps provide shape and is where chromosomes attach. The matrix is made out of lamins, an if. Histones help change chromatin into what its supposed to be (expressed or not expressed) In situ hybridization: determines location of certain sequences. Use probe with complementary strand of dna to see where sequences are. The nls sequence is added near the c terminus and helps target protein back into nucleus.
