Figure 7. Nuclear localization of CbfA-CTD.

Figure 7

(A) Schematic presentation of the CbfA protein. CbfA (1000 amino acids) contains the following domains: JmjC: jumonji domain; ZF: zinc fingers; NRD: asparagin-rich domain; AT: AT-hook; CTD: carboxy-terminal domain. GFP-CbfA724–998 represents a protein expressed from plasmid pPT132-CTD. The amino acid sequence surrounding the AT-hook is indicated. The AT-hook itself is indicated by the red box. Amino acids contributing to nuclear localization are written in red color and bold. Mutations introduced into the GFP-CbfA724–998 protein to test for nuclear localization and in vivo function of the AT-hook, respectively, are indicated below the arrows (see text for details). (B) Shown is the expression in JH.D cells of GFP-CbfA724–998 wildtype protein and mutants GFP-CbfA724–998(R812A), GFP-CbfA724–998(K799N/R800G), GFP-CbfA724–998(P801K), and GFP-CbfA724–998(P801K/R812A). Cells were fixed and analyzed by confocal laser scanning microscopy. Scale bar is 10 µm.
