A model for W7-mediated changes in Ku mobility. Binding of InsP6 to Ku leads to a change in conformation that destabilizes association of Ku with protein factors, such as nuclear matrix. W7 depletes inositol phosphate levels, leading to a locking of Ku in the matrix-bound conformation, and a corresponding decrease in the mobile fraction in the nucleus.
