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.
控制细胞核内生物分子凝聚物的形成对基因组功能至关重要。在本期杂志中,Xu等人(https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202401036)报道,KPNA3通过将NPAT导入细胞核并防止NPAT在细胞质中不当凝聚,促进组蛋白基因座体的形成和复制依赖性组蛋白基因的表达。
