CC -!- FUNCTION: GTP-binding protein involved in nucleocytoplasmic CC transport. Required for the import of protein into the nucleus and CC also for RNA export. Involved in chromatin condensation and CC control of cell cycle (By similarity). CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the small GTPase superfamily. Ran family.
