Function

Functions in nuclear protein import as nuclear transport receptor. Serves as receptor for nuclear localization signals (NLS) in cargo substrates. Is thought to mediate docking of the importin/substrate complex to the nuclear pore complex (NPC) through binding to nucleoporin and the complex is subsequently translocated through the pore by an energy requiring, Ran-dependent mechanism. At the nucleoplasmic side of the NPC, Ran binds to the importin, the importin/substrate complex dissociates and importin is re-exported from the nucleus to the cytoplasm where GTP hydrolysis releases Ran. The directionality of nuclear import is thought to be conferred by an asymmetric distribution of the GTP- and GDP-bound forms of Ran between the cytoplasm and nucleus (By similarity). Mediates the nuclear import of UBC9, the RBM8A/MAGOH complex, PAX6 and probably other members of the paired homeobox family. Also mediates nuclear export of eIF-1A, and the cytoplasmic release of eIF-1A is triggered by the loading of import substrates onto IPO13.

Activity summary

Importin 13 also known as IPO13 is a karyopherin with a molecular mass of approximately 100 kDa. This protein shuttles cargo between the cytoplasm and nucleus facilitating the nuclear import of various proteins and some RNAs. It expresses in many tissues with higher levels observed in brain testes and heart. Importin 13's transport function plays a significant role in regulating nuclear-cytoplasmic trafficking which is critical for cellular function and communication.

Biological function summary

The role of Importin 13 extends beyond simple transportation. It interacts with other proteins to regulate transcription and is sometimes part of a larger protein complex. Importin 13 helps in the import of transcription factors and other regulatory molecules into the nucleus influencing gene expression that affects cell differentiation and development. Its activity contributes to maintaining proper cellular states and transitions impacting processes such as neurogenesis and spermatogenesis.

Pathways

Importin 13 is intimately involved in the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway which determines cell growth and differentiation. It closely interacts with proteins like ERK2 facilitating their correct localization and function within the cell. These interactions ensure the precise regulation and execution of signaling events within the pathway enabling cells to respond correctly to extracellular signals. Additionally Importin 13 participates in the Wnt/β-catenin pathway further affecting cellular growth and development.

Associated diseases and disorders

Importin 13's dysfunction connects to neurological disorders and cancer. Abnormal expression or mutations can contribute to developmental brain disorders due to its impact on neurogenesis. It has associations with cancer especially through pathways involving ERK2 and β-catenin where improper localization and activation might lead to uncontrolled cell growth. Studying Importin 13 offers insights into these conditions prompting potential therapeutic interventions.
