Crystal structure of Kap121p bound to Ste12p
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23541588
Function
[IMB3_YEAST] Involved in the nuclear import of ribosomal proteins. Binds to nucleoporins and the GTP-bound form of GSP1 (Ran). Plays a role in protein secretion. [STE12_YEAST] Binds to the DNA sequence mediating pheromone induction (called the pheromone response element = PRE) which is found in the upstream control region of several a-, alpha- and haploid-specific genes. Involved in mating of haploids and in pseudohyphae formation in diploids.
