MiscellaneousBinds to nucleoporin FxFG but not GLFG repeat regions. Ran-GTP can disrupt the karyopherin heterodimer by binding to the beta subunit and releases both subunits from the docking site.
MiscellaneousPresent with 51700 molecules/cell in log phase SD medium
MiscellaneousPresent with 51700 molecules/cell in log phase SD medium. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14562106}.
MiscellaneousThe stoichiometric complex between the beta subunit and Ran-GTP renders the latter inaccessible to Ran-specific GTPase activating protein (Ran-GAP) thereby inhibiting GTP hydrolysis stimulated by Ran-GAP.
