Background Information

KPNA4, also named importin subunit alpha-3, karyopherin-alpha4, is a cytoplasmic protein that recognizes nuclear localization signals (NLSs) and dock NLS-containing proteins to the nuclear pore complex. Nuclear import, mediated in part by karyopherin-α (KPNA)/importin-α subtypes, regulates transcription factor access to the genome and determines cell fate. KPNA4-mediated nuclear transport of Ras-responsive element-binding protein (RREB1), which sustains Ras/ERK pathway signaling through repressing miR-143/145 expression (PMID: 31822798). KPNA4 is one of the main isoforms that is activated in many human cancers. KPNA4 expression was elevated in head and neck of squamous cell carcinoma (PMID: 33188837).
