Using in vitro and in vivo binding assays we identified that HIF-1α interacts with importin-α5 and importin-α7 in prostate cancer cells but only importin-α7 interacts with SEPT9_i1.
Using in vitro and in vivo binding assays we identified that HIF-1α interacts with importin-α5 and importin-α7 in prostate cancer cells but only importin-α7 interacts with SEPT9_i1.
In this study, we found that karyopherin α6 (KPNA6; also known as importin α7) was required for the optimal replication of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) and Zika virus (ZIKV), which are positive-sense, single-stranded RNA viruses replicating in the cytoplasm.
In particular, adaptation to human importin-α7 mediates elevated virus replication in the mammalian lung, which might have contributed to ARDS observed in H7N9-infected patients.
