Abstract excerpt
BRCA1 is a tumor suppressor with several important nuclear functions. BRCA1 has no known cytoplasmic functions. We show here that the two previously identified nuclear localization signals (NLSs) are insufficient for nuclear localization of BRCA1 due to the opposing action of an NH2-terminal nuclear export signal. In transfected breast cancer cells, BRCA1 nuclear localization requires both the NLSs and...
