Description
Importin a proteins play a pivotal role in the import of proteins from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. Importin a proteins shuttle between nucleus and cytoplasm, bind nuclear localization signal (NLS)-bearing proteins, and mediate the protein import into the nucleus with importin b. Several importin a isotypes have been identified, each exhibiting differential recognition and nuclear transport, probably via preferential binding to a particular NLS. The importin a 3 (KPNA4, Qip1) is a member of the importin a family of proteins belonging to the Qip1 subfamily. The antibody was purified from the serum-free cultured medium of the hybridoma under mild conditions by proprietary chromatography processes.
