    Description: Gene-specific transcription factors (GSTFs) control gene transcription by DNA binding and specific protein complex recruitment, which regulates promoter accessibility for transcription initiation by RNA polymerase II. Mutations in the GSTFs Suppressor of Mothers Against Decapentaplegic 2 (SMAD2) and SMAD4 are frequently associated with colon and rectal carcinomas. These proteins play an important role in bone morphogenic protein (BMP) and transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) signaling pathways controlling cell fate and proliferation. To study the protein interactome of the SMAD protein family we generated a quantitative proteomics pipeline that allows for inducible expression of GFP-tagged SMAD proteins followed by affinity purification and quantitative mass spectrometry analysis. Data are available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD004529. The nuclear importin IPO5 was identified as a novel interacting protein of SMAD1. Overexpression of IPO5 in various cell lines specifically increases nuclear localization of BMP receptor-activated SMADs (R-SMADs) confirming a functional relationship between IPO5 and BMP but not TGF-β R-SMADs. Finally, we provide evidence that variation in length of the lysine stretch of the nuclear localization sequence is a determinant for importin specificity.
