Fig. 7. Schematic diagram of the NLS-dependent nuclear
import pathway. Yellow, importin- ; green,
importin- ; cyan,
NLS-containing cargo protein; magenta, Ran-GTP. For simplicity,
other factors involved in the pathway such as nuclear transport
factor-2, the nuclear export receptor for importin- , and
Ran-binding proteins have been omitted from the diagram.
Dissociation constants for the different binding events are
shown.
