摘要: Nuclear proteins are targeted through the nuclear pore complex (NPC) in an energy-dependent reaction. The import reaction is mediated by localization sequences (NLS) substrate which recognized heterodimeric cytoplasmic receptors. hSRP1 alpha NLS-binding subunit of human NLS receptor and complexed vivo with a second 97 kDa (p97). We show here that short amino-terminal domain necessary sufficient for its interaction p97. This conserved other SRP1-like fusion to reporter protein promote complete import, circumventing usual requirement interaction. same inhibits NLS-containing when added vitro transport assay. While full-length hSRP able leave nucleus, alone not exit. conclude functions as adaptor tether substrates machinery.
