Comments
Paxillin is an adaptor protein that is a major component of the focal-adhesion network. It plays a critical role in embryonic development, cell attachment, spreading and mobility. Paxillin is a Group 3 LIM-containing protein. Dong et al. showed that paxillin shuttles and LD4 domain at the N-terminal is necessary for nuclear export function. Ser272 phosphorylation within LD4 blocks the export activity. The NLS was not mapped. When translocated into the nucleus, Paxillin promotes DNA synthesis of H19.

User Input
Accurate identification of NESs is difficult because many sequences in the genome match the NES consensus. Therefore, some published NESs may be mistakenly identified. Please help us improve the accuracy of NESdb by providing either a positive or negative flag for the NES in this entry. Supporting comments are required to process the flag.
