Comments
Cyclin B1/Cdc2 complex is critical for regulating cell mitosis. Cyclin B1 translocates from the cytoplasm to the nucleus at the onset of mitosis. It was previously found that there is a domain of Cyclin B1 (called CRS) in human that was sufficient for its cytoplasmic localization. In Xenopus, the CRS of Cyclin B1 is 61% identical to human. Yang et al. demonstrated through nuclear injection and cell contents analysis that Cyclin B1 is predominantly cytoplasmic. Cyclin B1 is actively transported out of the nucleus, and the process requires RanGTP. They further showed that aa 76-125, when fused with GST, can export the fusion protein out of the nucleus. The export is sensitive to LMB. Mutation of F112 to alanine abort both in vivo export and in vitro CRM1 binding. In addition, CRS contains four serine phosphorylation site, which are important for Cyclin B1 nuclear accumulation. Yang et al. showed that mutation of serines to Glu, which mimics constitutive phosphorylation, reduces the affinity of Cyclin B1 for CRM1.

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.
