Selective Transport of Proteins to and from the Nucleus
{"Image DocumentName": "Selective Transport of Proteins to and from the Nucleus", "Image ImageDescription": "Nuclear transport receptors are proteins that recognize nuclear localization signals and mediate transport across the nuclear envelope. Karyopherin is a nuclear transport receptor. Importins transport macromolecules to the nucleus from the cytoplasm. Exportins transport macromolecules from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. How do the nuclear localization sequences serve to send a protein into the nucleus? They are recognized by proteins that function as nuclear transport receptors. Most of these receptors belong to the Karyopherin protein family. -Members of the Karyopherin family can function as importins that transport substances into the nucleus or exportins that transport molecules out of the nucleus. -After binding to these Karyopherin receptors, the are then transported through the nuclear pore complex.", "Image XResolution": "37", "Image YResolution": "37", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Centimeter", "Image Software": "SlidePlayer", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered"}
