TATA-box DNA binding activity and subunit composition for RNA polymerase III transcription factor IIIB from Xenopus laevis.

abstract：:Proteins destined for the nucleus contain nuclear localization sequences, short stretches of amino acids responsible for targeting them to the nucleus. We show that the first 29 amino acids of GAL4, a yeast DNA-binding protein, function efficiently as a nuclear localization sequence when fused to normally cytoplasmic ...
