Importin α/β mediates nuclear import of individual SUMO E1 subunits and of the holo-enzyme

SUMOylation is an essential modification that regulates predominantly nuclear proteins. Here we describe two pathways for the generation of nuclear SUMO E1 enzyme, import of individual subunits, and transport of the holo-enzyme. The NLS in Uba2 is required for transport of the complex; the c-Myc–like NLS in Aos1 functions only in the free subunit
