Abstract excerpt
In eukaryotes, reversible shuttling between the nucleus and cytoplasm is an important regulatory mechanism, particularly for many kinases and transcription factors. Inspired by the natural system, we recently developed a technology to control protein position in budding yeast using a chemical inducer of dimerization (CID). In this method, a nuclear export or localization signal is reversibly appended to a protein...
