Abstract excerpt
Nuclear migration plays a prominent role in a broad range of developmental processes. We have cloned a Drosophila gene, DnudC, encoding a protein that is evolutionarily conserved between humans and fungi. The Aspergillus homolog, nudC, is one of a group of genes required for nuclear migration. DnudC encodes a 38.5-kDa protein, and the carboxy terminal half of the protein shares 52% amino acid identity with...
