Three leucine-rich sequences mediate cytoplasmic localization of MoKA. (A) At the top is a schematic representation of MoKA protein structure showing the relative locations of the three putative leucine-rich NESs identified by sequence homology. Below is the amino acid alignment of the four NES-like motifs. (B) Schematic representation of the MoKA-Flag mutants without NES-like sequences (ΔNESs). (C) Illustrative confocal images showing indirect immunofluorescence of COS7 cells transiently expressing MoKA-Flag wild-type (WT) and MoKAΔNESs-Flag fusion proteins. The bar graphs on the right summarize the individual N/C ratios of full-length MoKA-Flag (WT) and of various MoKAΔNESs-Flag fusion proteins.
