UV-induced nuclear import of XPA is mediated by importin-α4 in an ATR-dependent manner. [PDF]
Xeroderma pigmentosum Group A (XPA) is a crucial factor in mammalian nucleotide excision repair (NER) and nuclear import of XPA from the cytoplasm for NER is regulated in cellular DNA damage responses in S-phase.

Structural characterisation of TNRC6A nuclear localisation signal in complex with importin-alpha. [PDF]
The GW182/TNRC6 family of proteins are central scaffolds that link microRNA-associated Argonaute proteins to the cytoplasmic decay machinery for targeted mRNA degradation processes.

Identification and Characterization of Importin 13 Substrates [PDF]
Nuclear pore complexes embedded in the nuclear envelope regulate the bidirectional transport of macromolecules between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. Small molecules can rapidly move through the permeability barrier of the nuclear pore complex, whereas ...

Importin-α2 mediates brain development, learning and memory consolidation in Drosophila
Neuronal development and memory consolidation are conserved processes that rely on nuclear-cytoplasmic transport of signaling molecules to regulate gene activity and initiate cascades of downstream cellular events.

Isoform importin α molecules play a central role in the classical nuclear import pathway, that occurs through the nuclear pore complex (NPC) and typically requires a specific nuclear localization signal (NLS).

Importin α7 is essential for zygotic genome activation and early mouse development. [PDF]
Importin α is involved in the nuclear import of proteins. It also contributes to spindle assembly and nuclear membrane formation, however, the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood.
