<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Karyopherin alpha 2 (KPNA2) and karyopherin beta 1 (KPNB1) constitute nuclear transport protein complexes involved in nuclear import and are significant in tumor progression. Although high KPNA2 expression was associated with poor prognosis in solid tumors, the relationship between KPNA2 and KPNB1 ...

Malfunction of nuclear-cytoplasmic transport contributes to many diseases including cancer. Defective nuclear transport leads to changes in both the physiological levels and temporal-spatial location of tumor suppressors, proto-oncogenes and other macromolecules that in turn affect the tumorigenesis process and drug sensitivity of cancer cells.

A karyopherin acts in localized protein synthesis [PDF]
Multiple mechanisms are in place to regulate adequate synthesis of proteins, ranging from ways to ensure sequence fidelity, polypeptide folding and protein modification, to control of amounts and subcellular localization of the molecules. Some of these mechanisms act at the level of mRNA export and mRNA targeting.

Targeting nuclear transporters in cancer: Diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic potential [PDF]
The Karyopherin superfamily is a major class of soluble transport receptors consisting of both import and export proteins. The trafficking of proteins involved in transcription, cell signalling and cell cycle regulation among other functions across the ...

Adjunct Duties for Karyopherins: Regulating Septin Sumoylation [PDF]
Karyopherins are shuttling transport receptors regulated by the small GTPase Ran, which move cargo between the nucleus and cytoplasm by passing through the nuclear pore complexes. A recent paper in Journal of Cell Biology (Makhnevych et al., 2007) highlights an additional role for karyopherins during mitosis, in regulating the sumoylation status of the

This study aimed to determine whether serum karyopherin alpha 2 levels can be used as a diagnostic biomarker for epithelial ovarian carcinoma. Karyopherin alpha 2 protein was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in serum samples from 162 ...

Higher nucleoporin-Importinβ affinity at the nuclear basket increases nucleocytoplasmic import. [PDF]
Several in vitro studies have shown the presence of an affinity gradient in nuclear pore complex proteins for the import receptor Importinβ, at least partially contributing to nucleocytoplasmic transport, while others have historically argued against the

Intracellular Wolbachia bacteria manipulate arthropod reproduction to promote their own inheritance. The most prevalent mechanism, cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI), traces to a Wolbachia deubiquitylase, CidB, and CidA.
