摘要

Macromolecules are transported between the cytoplasm and the nucleoplasm of eukaryotic cells through nuclear pore complexes (NPCs). Large (more than ≈ 40 kDa) transport cargoes imported into the nucleus typically form a complex with at least one soluble transport cofactor of the importin (Imp) β superfamily. Many cargoes require an accessory cofactor, Imp α, which binds to Imp β and to the nuclear localization sequence on the cargo. We previously reported the use of narrow-field epifluorescence microscopy to directly monitor cargoes in transit through NPCs in permeabil-ized cells. We now report an expanded approach in which single-molecule fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) is used to detect the disassembly of Imp α/cargo complexes as they transit through NPCs. We found that CAS, the recycling cofactor for Imp α. and RanGTP are essential for this dissociation process. After Imp α/cargo complex dissociation, most Imp α and cargo molecules entered the nucleoplasm. In contrast, the majority of Imp α/cargo complexes that did not dissociate at the NPC in the presence of CAS and RanGTP returned to the cytoplasm. These data are consistent with a model in which Imp α/cargo complexes are dissociated on the nucleoplasmic side of the NPC, and this dissociation requires both CAS and RanGTP.
