Abstract excerpt
Proteins in the importin α (IMPA) family play pivotal roles in intracellular nucleocytoplasmic transport. Arabidopsis thaliana possesses nine IMPA members, with diverse tissue-specific expression patterns. Among these nine IMPAs, IMPA1, IMPA2, and IMPA4 cluster together phylogenetically, suggesting potential functional redundancy. To explore this redundancy, we analyzed single and multiple T-DNA mutants for these...
