http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/8892760http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"The CDC6 gene product from Saccharomyces cerevisiae is required for transition from late G1 to S phase of the cell cycle. We have investigated the subcellular localization of the CDC6 protein in yeast to explore where Cdc6p exerts its gene function (s). Using affinity-purified sera we localized Cdc6p to the cytoplasm and the nuclear matrix by both subcellular fractionation and indirect immunofluorescence microscopy. The nuclear localization was confirmed to be in the nuclear scaffold by the low-salt extraction method. The Cdc6p cannot be detected in the mitochondrial or plasma membrane fractions. Using indirect immunofluorescence, we found that a subpopulation of Cdc6p migrated into the nucleus after G1/S transition and diminished after M phase, suggesting its temporal role in nuclear DNA replication. The predicted Cdc6p polypeptide contains a conserved nuclear localization, 27PLKRKKL33, similar to that of the SV40 large T antigen and other nuclear proteins. To test whether this peptide segment plays a role in mediating nuclear transport, we have carried out site-directed mutagenesis to alter the conserved 29Lys to Thr and Arg. The wild-type nuclear localization signal of Cdc6p was found to mediate the LacZ reporter gene fused to CDC6 efficiently to the nucleus, but not the mutated versions of the nuclear localization motif. The results suggested that 29Lys is important in mediating nuclear localization, the 29Thr and 29Arg mutant versions of the CDC6 gene were also unable to complement the cdc6 temperature-sensitive mutant. However, when these mutants were expressed from a multicopy plasmid, the mutated genes could complement the mutation. Similar results were obtained in the cdc6-disrupted cells. Taken together, we suggest that (i) Cdc6p is predominantly located in the cytoplasm, (ii) the nuclear entry of Cdc6p is cell cycle dependent, and (iii) nuclear entry of Cdc6p is mediated by its nuclear localization signal. The presence of Cdc6p in both the nucleus and the cytoplasm suggests a model that Cdc6p exerts its gene function in DNA replication and mitotic restraint in the cell cycle."xsd:string
