The adapter importin-α provides flexible control of nuclear import at the expense of efficiency

Although there exists a large family of nuclear transport receptors (Karyopherins), the majority of known import cargoes use an adapter protein, Importin-alpha (Impalpha), which links the cargo to a karyopherin, Importin-beta (Impbeta). The reason for the existence of transport adapters is unknown. One hypothesis is that, as Impalpha re-export is coupled to GTP hydrolysis, it can drive a higher...
