Comments
Scr is a homeodomain-containing transcription factor critical for developmental regulation. Duffraisse et al. found that Scr also contains a putative NES similar to Ubx (entry 395), but it follows conventional class 1a pattern including the W-containing HEX motif. HEX motif is known to be critical for binding to co-factors for DNA-binding. Interaction with drosophila CRM1 Embargoed is illustrated by biomolecular fluorescence complementation and in vitro pull-down, where HEX mutations affected the observed interaction (but only in the cytoplasm - signal increased in the nucleus). Co-expression with Emb also caused cytoplasmic accumulation of Scr which is dependent on intact HEX motif. The putative NES fused to nuclear protein Dronpa caused cytoplasmic accumulation of Dronpa, suggesting that the NES can function in peptide level.

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.
