The role of Importin-7 (IPO7) during activity-dependent nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of transcription modulators in hippocampal neurons

Importin-7, a member of the importin-beta superfamily of nuclear adaptor proteins, is thought to shuttle activated MAPK into the nucleus to induce transcription-dependent encoding of long-term memories in Drosophila. However, little is known about the function of importin-7, its cellular distributio...
