Alterations of the skeletal muscle nuclear proteome after acute exercise reveals a post-transcriptional influence.

Exercise plays a crucial role in promoting muscle health, but our understanding of nuclear proteins orchestrating exercise responses is limited. Isolation of skeletal muscle nuclei coupled with mass spectrometry enhanced the identification of nuclear proteins. This approach was used to investigate the effects of acute exercise, revealing changes in the muscle nuclear proteome 1-hour post-exercise, including proteins linked to post-transcriptional processing and splicing. Our findings offer insights into the exercise-induced changes within muscle nuclear proteins.
