Transportin-SR2 mediates nuclear import of phosphorylated SR proteins.
Serine/arginine-rich proteins (SR proteins) are a family of nuclear factors that play important roles in both constitutive and regulated precursor mRNA splicing. The domain rich in arginine/serine (RS) repeats (RS domain) serves as both a nuclear and subnuclear localization signal. We previously identified an importin beta family protein, transportin-SR2 (TRN-SR2), that specifically interacts w...
متن کاملTransportin-SR, a Nuclear Import Receptor for SR Proteins
The SR proteins, a group of abundant arginine/serine (RS)-rich proteins, are essential pre-mRNA splicing factors that are localized in the nucleus. The RS domain of these proteins serves as a nuclear localization signal. We found that RS domain-bearing proteins do not utilize any of the known nuclear import receptors and identified a novel nuclear import receptor specific for SR proteins. The S...
متن کاملTransportin-mediated Nuclear Import of Heterogeneous Nuclear RNP Proteins
Heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) A1 is an abundant nuclear protein that plays an important role in pre-mRNA processing and mRNA export from the nucleus. A1 shuttles rapidly between the nucleus and the cytoplasm, and a 38-amino acid domain, M9, serves as the bidirectional transport signal of A1. Recently, a 90-kD protein, transportin, was identified as the mediator of A1 nuclear i...
متن کاملTransportin regulates nuclear import of CD44.
CD44 is a facultative cell surface proteoglycan that serves as the principal cell surface receptor for hyaluronan (HA). Studies have shown that in addition to participating in numerous signaling pathways, CD44 becomes internalized upon engagement by ligand and that a portion of its intracellular domain can translocate to the nucleus where it is believed to play a functional role in cell prolife...
متن کاملThe nuclear pore component Nup358 promotes transportin-dependent nuclear import.
Nup358 (also known as RanBP2), a component of the cytoplasmic filaments of the nuclear pore complex, has been implicated in various nucleocytoplasmic transport pathways. Here, we identify Nup358 as an important factor for transportin-mediated nuclear import. Depletion of Nup358 resulted in a strong inhibition of nuclear import of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) Rev protein. HIV-...
