CC -!- FUNCTION: Import of proteins with classical NLS composed of one or two
CC clusters of basic residues is initiated by binding to the importin
CC alpha/beta heterodimer, where importin alpha acts as an adapter subunit
CC to bridge NLS cargos to importin beta, which transports the whole
CC complex through the nuclear envelope (PubMed:12684370). Involved in the
CC nuclear accumulation of the light-dependent developmental regulator veA
CC (PubMed:17163983, PubMed:19318129). Participates at different
CC regulatory stages of asexual and sexual development, being required for
CC the completion of both reproductive cycles with the formation of
CC conidiospores and ascospores, respectively (PubMed:19318129). Mediates
CC secondary metabolite gene expression with positive regulation of
CC penicillin production and negative regulation of mycotoxin biosynthesis
CC (PubMed:19318129). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12684370,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:17163983, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19318129}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Forms a complex with an importin beta subunit (By similarity).
CC Interacts with hsp70, hsp90, napB, nkuA, nudK, AN1413 and nimE
CC (PubMed:17890114). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q02821,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:17890114}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:B6HJ92}.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Leads to lethality (PubMed:19318129).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19318129}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the importin alpha family. {ECO:0000305}.
