'''Crystal structure of HEAT repeats (1-11) of importin b bound to the non-classical NLS(67-94) of PTHrP'''
===Crystal structure of HEAT repeats (1-11) of importin b bound to the non-classical NLS(67-94) of PTHrP===




==Overview==
<!--
Nuclear import of proteins containing a classical nuclear localization signal (NLS) involves NLS recognition by importin alpha, which associates with importin beta via the IBB domain. Other proteins, including parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP), are imported into the nucleus by direct interaction with importin beta. We solved the crystal structure of a fragment of importin beta-1 (1-485) bound to the nonclassical NLS of PTHrP. The structure reveals a second extended cargo binding site on importin beta distinct from the IBB domain binding site. Using a permeabilized cell import assay we demonstrate that importin beta (1-485) can import PTHrP-coupled cargo in a Ran-dependent manner. We propose that this region contains a prototypical nuclear import receptor domain, which could have evolved into the modern importin beta superfamily.
