Abstract
|
 |
|
Kapbeta2 (also called transportin) recognizes PY nuclear localization signal
(NLS), a new class of NLS with a R/H/Kx((2-5))PY motif. Here we show that
Kapbeta2 complexes containing hydrophobic and basic PY-NLSs, as classified by
the composition of an additional N-terminal motif, converge in structure only at
consensus motifs, which explains ligand diversity. On the basis of these data
and complementary biochemical analyses, we designed a Kapbeta2-specific nuclear
import inhibitor, M9M.
