Then the vector was used to transfect the MRC-5 cells to observe the subcellular signal localization of green fluorescence protein (GFP).We successfully constructed the expressing vector of NLS (ING1)-GFP fusion protein. After transferring the fusion expressing vector into MRC-5 cells, we observed that green fluorescence signal located in the cell nucleus. However, the green fluorescence signal located in the cytoplasm in MRC-5 cells transfected with pEGFP-C1 control only expressing GFP.In living cells, physiologically p33 ING1b locates absolutely in nucleus. The p33(ING1b) NLS plays a decisive role in the transporting process of subcellular localization.Read More
