Abstract excerpt
NF-κB is an important transcription factor involved in various biological responses, including inflammation, cell differentiation, and tumorigenesis. κB-Ras was identified as an IκB-interacting small GTPase and is reported to disturb cytokine-induced NF-κB activation. In this study, we established that κB-Ras is a novel type of nuclear-cytoplasmic small GTPase that mainly binds to GTP, and its localization seemed...
