The RanGTP gradient depends on nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of Ran and its nucleotide exchange in the nucleus. Here we show that hyperosmotic stress signaling induced by sorbitol disrupts the Ran protein gradient and reduces the production of RanGTP. Ran gradient disruption is rapid and is followed by early (10-20 min) and late (30-60 min) phases of recovery. Results from SB203580 and siRNA experiments suggest the stress kinase p38 is important for Ran gradient recovery. NTF2 and Mog1, which are transport factors that regulate the nuclear localization of Ran, showed kinetics of delocalization and recovery similar to Ran. Microinjection of a nuclear localization signal reporter protein revealed that sorbitol stress decreases the rate of nuclear import. Sorbitol stress also slowed RCC1 mobility in the nucleus, which is predicted to reduce RCC1 dissociation from chromatin and RanGTP production. This was tested using a FRET biosensor that registers nuclear RanGTP levels, which were reduced in response to sorbitol stress. Although sorbitol alters nucleotide levels, we show that inverting the GTP/GDP ratio in cells is not sufficient to disrupt the Ran gradient. Thus, the Ran system is a target of hyperosmotic stress signaling, and cells use protein localization-based mechanisms as part of a rapid stress response.
