Alignment of potential NES sequences of L-periaxin with previously characterized leucine-rich NESs.

Abstract

<p>NES sequences in mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MAPKK), zyxin, HIV.Rev, c-Abl, and LIM-kinase 1 are obtained from previous studies <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0091953#pone.0091953-Yang1" target="_blank">[22]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0091953#pone.0091953-Fischer1" target="_blank">[29]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0091953#pone.0091953-FukudaM1" target="_blank">[30]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0091953#pone.0091953-NixDA1" target="_blank">[31]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0091953#pone.0091953-Taagepera1" target="_blank">[32]</a>. Residue numbers are indicated in parentheses. Consensus sequence is shown at the bottom. Ψ indicates hydrophobic residues, which include leucine, isoleucine, valine, phenylalanine, and methionine.</p
