Comments
Fibroblast growth factor-1 (FGF-1) is affiliated with numerous cellular functions such as differentiation, proliferation, and migration. Exogenous FGF-1 can be recruited into the cytosol and nucleus of cells expressing appropriate receptors, and phosphatidyl 3-kinase activity and transmembrane electrical potential have been known to be required for FGF-1 translocation. Arriving first in the cytosol, FGF-1 is shuttled into the nucleus by nuclear localization sequences found within the protein. FGF-1 is rapidly exported out of the nucleus upon phosphorylation of Ser130 by PKCδ using the CRM1 pathway. FGF-1 is dephosphorylated in the cytosol following nuclear export. The hydrophobic amino acids are crucial for active nuclear export as well as for the proliferation of NIH/3T3 cells stimulated with FGF-1.
Doubts about NES: The proposed NES failed to bind CRM1 in GST-pulldown assay (Chook Lab, unpublished results).

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.
