The image depicts the potential mechanism of FBXO32, as well as the location and conservation of the mutated amino acid. A The different domains of FBXO32 are illustrated here. The image presents a schematic representation of the FBXO32 structure, containing the leucine zipper domain, the leucine-charged residue-rich domain (LCD), nuclear export signal (NES-like motif) in the LCD domain, 2 highly conserved nuclear localization signals (NLS), the F-Box domain (F-Box), the PDZ domain (PDZ), and the Cytochrome c-like domain (CytC). B The mechanism of the importin α3/β-mediated nuclear import of FBXO32 is depicted here. The NLS domain is bound to importin α3; then, importin β binds to importin α3 for transmission through the nuclear pore complex (NPC). C The alignment of conserved NLS residues from different FBXO32 orthologs was compared using the CLUSTALW Web Server. The lysine amino acids are shown in the box
