Abstract

In this issue, the discovery by Yang et al. (https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202308013) that foldedWWdomains of YAP1 and other proteins bind to Impα introduces a new class of globular NLS, contrasting with the extensively studied linear NLS motifs. This finding underscores the versatility of importins in recognizing their cargo proteins.
