recombinant mouse importin α3/Qip1.

Biochem/physiol Actions

The gene KPNA4 (karyopherin subunit α 4) encodes a 16kDa protein, also referred to as importin α 3 belonging to the family of karyopherins (designated KPNA1 to KPNA4), that participates in the recognition of NLS (nuclear localization signal) sites and dock NLS-containing proteins destined for transport into the nuclear pore complex. It binds to translocon and participates in the sorting of INM (inner nuclear membrane)-directed integral membrane proteins. It associates with nucleoporins and functions in cargo-translocation across the nuclear membrane.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, and 15 mM sodium azide.

It is well established that mutual relations exist between the oxidative status of a cell and the ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS). Oxidation of proteins leads to misfolding and thus claims a higher proteolytic activity of the UPS to dispose these
