Kinetic Characterization of the Human Retinoblastoma Protein Bipartite Nuclear Localization Sequence (NLS) in Vivo andin Vitro
1 Aug 1997
Abstract excerpt
The retinoblastoma (RB) tumor suppressor is a nuclear phosphoprotein important for cell growth control and able to bind specifically to viral oncoproteins such as the SV40 large tumor antigen (T-ag). Human RB possesses a bipartite nuclear localization sequence (NLS) consisting of two clusters of basic amino acids within amino acids 860-877, also present in mouse and Xenopus homologs, which resembles that of...
