| Research Abstract |
In fission yeast, a phenomenon functionally equivalent of nuclear envelope breakdown (virtual nuclear envelope breakdown: V-NEBD) occurs in meiosis to increase nuclear envelope permeability with maintenance of nuclear envelope and nuclear pore structure. To understand the function of nuclear pore complex on the V-NEBD, about 30 proteins composing nuclear pore complex were characterized by their localizations and expression levels. These analyses suggested the unique composition of nuclear pore complex in fission yeast. In addition, gene disruption analysis of the nuclear pore complex genes revealed a gene that regulates the timing of V-NEBD.
