Co-localization

Interaction inferred from two proteins that co-localize in the cell by indirect immunofluorescence only when in addition, if one gene is deleted, the other protein becomes mis-localized. Also includes co-dependent association of proteins with promoter DNA in chromatin immunoprecipitation experiments.

Publication

ARM domain-dependent nuclear import of adenomatous polyposis coli protein is stimulated by the B56 alpha subunit of protein phosphatase 2A.

Galea MA, Eleftheriou A, Henderson BR

Inactivating mutations in the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene correlate with progression of colon cancer and familial adenomatous polyposis. The APC tumor suppressor contributes to chromosome segregation and turnover of the oncogenic transcriptional activator beta-catenin, and these activities are impaired by truncating cancer mutations. APC was recently identified as a shuttling protein whose subcellular distribution is regulated by two nuclear ... [more]

Throughput

  • Low Throughput

Additional Notes

  • B56 alpha increased the nuclear localization of mutant and wild-type APC. The minimal B56 alpha-responsive sequence mapped to APC amino acids 302-625; its ability to shift APC to the nucleus was independent of phosphatase activity
