Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable histone deacetylase binding activity; nuclear import signal receptor activity; and nuclear localization sequence binding activity. Predicted to be involved in NLS-bearing protein import into nucleus. Predicted to act upstream of or within import into nucleus. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of NLS-dependent protein nuclear import complex. Predicted to be active in nuclear membrane. Orthologous to human KPNA2 (karyopherin subunit alpha 2).
