Comments
The oncogenicity of hepatitis B virus is largely the result of HBz, whose major cellular function is its promiscuous transcriptional activation activity. The NES of HBx is located in the center region and has been shown to be necessary for HBx-induced cytoplasmic retention of CRM1, and subsequently, the nuclear translocation and activation of NFκB.

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.
