Background:
KPNA5 Antibody: Karyopherin, a cytosolic and heterodimeric protein complex consisting of alpha and beta subunits, is responsible for targeting proteins with nuclear localization signals to the nuclear pore complex (NPC) by an energy requiring, Ran-dependent mechanism. The alpha subunit and imported substrate enter the nucleus and accumulate in the nucleoplasm, while the beta subunit accumulates at the NPC. KPNA5 belongs to a subfamily within the KPNA family that also includes KPNA4 and 6 and is thought to be involved in NLS-dependent protein imort into the nucleus.
