Abstract
Controlling biomolecular condensate formation within the nucleus is critical for genome function. In this issue, Xu et al. (https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202401036) report that KPNA3 promotes histone locus body formation and expression of replication-dependent histone genes by both importing NPAT into the nucleus and preventing NPAT condensation from improperly occurring in the cytoplasm.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Cell Biology (JCB) is a comprehensive journal dedicated to publishing original discoveries across all realms of cell biology. We invite papers presenting novel cellular or molecular advancements in various domains of basic cell biology, along with applied cell biology research in diverse systems such as immunology, neurobiology, metabolism, virology, developmental biology, and plant biology. We enthusiastically welcome submissions showcasing significant findings of interest to cell biologists, irrespective of the experimental approach.
