HEK293T cells were transfected with empty FLAG-tag vector as a control or FLAG-Nup50 N-terminal fragment (aa 1-120 of the human sequence). 24 h post transfection cells were lysed, FLAG-tagged proteins immuno-isolated and analyzed by mass spectrometry with the Volcano blot showing the identified interactors of Nup50 (yellow, data from three independent experiments) Data points from individual experiments are indicated. KPNA2 is the gene name of importin α.
