Nuclear import of Pik1 requires importin-β, but not importin-α. (A) An importin-α (kap60 ts) mutant (YTS0012 srp1-31 ts) and its otherwise isogenic KAP60 + parent (W303-1a) carrying pTS7 were grown in SCRaf-Trp at 26°C to A600 nm ≈ 0.7, and a portion of each culture was shifted to 37°C. After 1 h, expression of GFP-Pik1 was induced by addition of galactose, and the cells were incubated for an additional 2 h at the indicated temperature before being inspected by fluorescence microscopy. (B) The identical experiment described in A was performed with an importin-β (kap95 ts) mutant (SWY1313 rsl1 ts) and its otherwise isogenic parent strain (SWY1312) carrying pTS7, except that, after galactose induction, the cells were incubated for 3 h at the indicated temperature before inspection.
