Abstract excerpt
Nuclear import of the two uracil-rich small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (U snRNP) components U1A and U2B" is mediated by unusually long and complex nuclear localization signals (NLSs). Here we investigate nuclear import of U1A and U2B" in vitro and demonstrate that it occurs by an active, saturable process. Several lines of evidence suggest that import of the two proteins occurs by an import mechanism different to...
