A short perinuclear amphipathic α-helix in Apq12 promotes nuclear pore complex biogenesis
The integral membrane protein Apq12 is an important nuclear envelope (NE)/endoplasmic reticulum (ER) modulator that cooperates with the nuclear pore complex (NPC) biogenesis factors Brl1 and Brr6. How Apq12 executes these functions is unknown. Here, we identified a short amphipathic α-helix (AαH) in...
