Abstract excerpt
In breast cancer cells, cytoplasmic localization of the estradiol receptor alpha (ERalpha) regulates estradiol-dependent S phase entry. We identified a nuclear export sequence (NES) in ERalpha and show that its export is dependent on both estradiol-mediated phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT activation and chromosome region maintenance 1 (CRM1). A Tat peptide containing the ERalpha NES disrupts ERalpha-CRM1...
