        Args:
          format (string):
            The format to use for wrapping the key:

            - *'PEM'*. (*Default*) Text encoding, done according to `RFC1421`_/`RFC1423`_.
            - *'DER'*. Binary encoding.
            - *'OpenSSH'*. Textual encoding, done according to OpenSSH specification.
              Only suitable for public keys (not private keys).

          passphrase (string):
            (*For private keys only*) The pass phrase used for protecting the output.

          pkcs (integer):
            (*For private keys only*) The ASN.1 structure to use for
            serializing the key. Note that even in case of PEM
            encoding, there is an inner ASN.1 DER structure.

            With ``pkcs=1`` (*default*), the private key is encoded in a
            simple `PKCS#1`_ structure (``RSAPrivateKey``).

            With ``pkcs=8``, the private key is encoded in a `PKCS#8`_ structure
            (``PrivateKeyInfo``).

            .. note::
                This parameter is ignored for a public key.
                For DER and PEM, an ASN.1 DER ``SubjectPublicKeyInfo``
                structure is always used.

          protection (string):
            (*For private keys only*)
            The encryption scheme to use for protecting the private key.

            If ``None`` (default), the behavior depends on :attr:`format`:

            - For *'DER'*, the *PBKDF2WithHMAC-SHA1AndDES-EDE3-CBC*
              scheme is used. The following operations are performed:

                1. A 16 byte Triple DES key is derived from the passphrase
                   using :func:`Cryptodome.Protocol.KDF.PBKDF2` with 8 bytes salt,
                   and 1 000 iterations of :mod:`Cryptodome.Hash.HMAC`.
                2. The private key is encrypted using CBC.
                3. The encrypted key is encoded according to PKCS#8.

            - For *'PEM'*, the obsolete PEM encryption scheme is used.
              It is based on MD5 for key derivation, and Triple DES for encryption.

            Specifying a value for :attr:`protection` is only meaningful for PKCS#8
            (that is, ``pkcs=8``) and only if a pass phrase is present too.

            The supported schemes for PKCS#8 are listed in the
            :mod:`Cryptodome.IO.PKCS8` module (see :attr:`wrap_algo` parameter).

          randfunc (callable):
            A function that provides random bytes. Only used for PEM encoding.
            The default is :func:`Cryptodome.Random.get_random_bytes`.

        Returns:
          byte string: the encoded key

        Raises:
          ValueError:when the format is unknown or when you try to encrypt a private
            key with *DER* format and PKCS#1.

    Args:
        rsa_components (tuple):
            A tuple of integers, with at least 2 and no
            more than 6 items. The items come in the following order:

            1. RSA modulus *n*.
            2. Public exponent *e*.
            3. Private exponent *d*.
               Only required if the key is private.
            4. First factor of *n* (*p*).
               Optional, but the other factor *q* must also be present.
            5. Second factor of *n* (*q*). Optional.
            6. CRT coefficient *q*, that is :math:`p^{-1} \text{mod }q`. Optional.

        consistency_check (boolean):
            If ``True``, the library will verify that the provided components
            fulfil the main RSA properties.

    Raises:
        ValueError: when the key being imported fails the most basic RSA validity checks.

    Returns: An RSA key object (:class:`RsaKey`).
