Abstract:
Neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease(NIID)is a progressive neurodegenerative condition characterized by eosinophilic hyaline intranuclear inclusions in neuronal and other somatic cells. Since 2011, when skin biopsy was proven to be a diagnostic tool, the incidence of NIID has been increasing. Its symptoms include dementia, muscle weakness, and sensory or autonomic disturbance. MRI shows hyperintense lesions of the subcortical white matter, especially on the U-fiber. These findings persist and continue to worsen for years.

Nuclear Protein Sorting
Proteins targeted to the nucleus carry nuclear localization signals or NLS recognized by import receptors in the cytosol. Similarly, proteins with nuclear export signals are recognized by export receptors. Import and export receptors are...
