Comments
γ134.5 Protein of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is essential for HSV to display neurovirulence in vivo. γ134.5 Protein is distributed in the nucleus, nucleolus, and the cytoplasm. AA 1-16 is required for nucleolar localization. AA 208-236 contains a bipartite nuclear localization signal, whereas aa 116-146 is required for nuclear export, which is sensitive to LMB. Although Cheng et al. pointed out the sequence aa 128-137 resembles a NES, they didn't show that it can function autonomously. However, they demonstrated that L134A/L136A mutation causes exclusive nuclear/nucleolar localization of the mutant γ134.5 Protein.

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.
