Abstract excerpt
Dlk (also termed ZIP kinase) is a novel serine/threonine kinase with a unique C-terminal domain that is rich in arginine and contains three putative NLS motifs and a functional lecuine zipper. Dlk is indeed localized in the nucleus where it shows a speckled distribution. To elucidate the biological functions of Dlk, we wanted to identify the signals relevant for nuclear transport and further the nuclear...
