The Nucleoporin MLP1 of the nuclear basket is essential for nuclear integrity and ploidy maintenance in Trypanosoma brucei

Akila Yagoubat, Lucien Crobu, Slavica Stanojčić, Nada Kuk, Amélie Sarrazin, Marie‐Pierre Blanchard, Patrick Bastien, Maude F. Lévêque, Laurence Berry, Yvon Sterkers

This study shows that MLP1, a nuclear pore complex protein in Trypanosoma brucei, is essential for nuclear integrity, mRNA export, and genome stability by maintaining proper chromosome segregation and ploidy.
