Comments
p21Cip1 is a cyclin-dependent kinase involved in cell proliferation, differentiation, etc. One mechanism regulating p21Cip1 is through degradation. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) induces cytoplasmic localization via NESs. The translocation is necessary for its degradation. However, simultaneous mutation of leucines within two proposed NESs prevents us from knowing which one is functional. In addition, nuclear localization needs to proceed cytoplasmic localization in order for p21Cip1 degradation to occur.

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.
