Protein existenceEvidence at protein level

General annotation (Comments)

Function

Required for nuclear protein import and mediates docking of import substrate to distinct nucleoporins. Serves a receptor for nuclear localization signals. Mediates the nuclear import of histones H2A and H2B. Ref.6

Subunit structure

Forms a complex with importin alpha subunit.

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm By similarity. Nucleus envelope By similarity.

Miscellaneous

Binds to nucleoporin FxFG but not GLFG repeat regions. Ran-GTP can disrupt the karyopherin heterodimer by binding to the beta subunit and releases both subunits from the docking site.

The stoichiometric complex between the beta subunit and Ran-GTP renders the latter inaccessible to Ran-specific GTPase activating protein (Ran-GAP) thereby inhibiting GTP hydrolysis stimulated by Ran-GAP.

Present with 51700 molecules/cell in log phase SD medium. Ref.7

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the importin beta family.

Contains 8 HEAT repeats.

Contains 1 importin N-terminal domain.
