[[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/H4_XENLA H4_XENLA]] Core component of nucleosome. Nucleosomes wrap and compact DNA into chromatin, limiting DNA accessibility to the cellular machineries which require DNA as a template. Histones thereby play a central role in transcription regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication and chromosomal stability. DNA accessibility is regulated via a complex set of post-translational modifications of histones, also called histone code, and nucleosome remodeling.
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/IPO4_HUMAN IPO4_HUMAN] Functions in nuclear protein import as nuclear transport receptor. Serves as receptor for nuclear localization signals (NLS) in cargo substrates. Is thought to mediate docking of the importin/substrate complex to the nuclear pore complex (NPC) through binding to nucleoporin and the complex is subsequently translocated through the pore by an energy requiring, Ran-dependent mechanism. At the nucleoplasmic side of the NPC, Ran binds to the importin, the importin/substrate complex dissociates and importin is re-exported from the nucleus to the cytoplasm where GTP hydrolysis releases Ran. The directionality of nuclear import is thought to be conferred by an asymmetric distribution of the GTP- and GDP-bound forms of Ran between the cytoplasm and nucleus (By similarity). Mediates the nuclear import of RPS3A. In vitro, mediates the nuclear import of human cytomegalovirus UL84 by recognizing a non-classical NLS.<ref>PMID:11823430</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
IMPORTIN-4, the primary nuclear import receptor of core histones H3 and H4, binds the H3-H4 dimer and histone chaperone ASF1 prior to nuclear import. However, how H3-H3-ASF1 is recognized for transport cannot be explained by available crystal structures of IMPORTIN-4-histone tail peptide complexes. Our 3.5-A IMPORTIN-4-H3-H4-ASF1 cryoelectron microscopy structure reveals the full nuclear import complex and shows a binding mode different from suggested by previous structures. The N-terminal half of IMPORTIN-4 clamps the globular H3-H4 domain and H3 alphaN helix, while its C-terminal half binds the H3 N-terminal tail weakly; tail contribution to binding energy is negligible. ASF1 binds H3-H4 without contacting IMPORTIN-4. Together, ASF1 and IMPORTIN-4 shield nucleosomal H3-H4 surfaces to chaperone and import it into the nucleus where RanGTP binds IMPORTIN-4, causing large conformational changes to release H3-H4-ASF1. This work explains how full-length H3-H4 binds IMPORTIN-4 in the cytoplasm and how it is released in the nucleus.
