FIG. 3. Analysis of the IBB-importin -PLSCR1 NLS binding interface. A, electrostatic surface potential of importin . Acidic and basic surfaces of the protein are in red and blue, respectively. The PLSCR1 NLS, in blue sticks, is docked to the importin surface. B, recognition of PLSCR1 Lys261. The conserved lysine at position P5 is sandwiched by two importin Trp184/ Trp142 (shown in yellow) and by the PLSCR1-Trp263 (in orange).
