Abstract excerpt
Nucleostemin (NS), a nucleolar guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-binding protein, plays significant roles in cell cycle progression and ribosomal biogenesis. Drosophila Nucleostemin 2 (NS2), a member of the Drosophila NS family, regulates early eye development and is essential to cell survival in vivo, but the underlying mechanisms have yet to be clarified. Biochemical analysis using the recombinant NS2 protein...
