The authors show that the localization of the osmotic stress response MAP kinase Hog1p is controlled by the activities of two importin-β-like transport factors, Nmd5p and Xpo1p(Crm1p). Hog1p phosphorylation triggers its nuclear import, whereas dephosphorylation is likely to allow its export by Xpo1p(Crm1p).

Genes Dev. 12:1998;1464-1473. The fission yeast stress-activated MAP kinase Spc1(Sty1) is shown to dissociate from its activating MAPKK Wis1 and to translocate into the nucleus in response to osmotic stress. Nuclear localization of Spc1(Sty1) also requires the transcription factor Atf1, which may serve as a nuclear anchor.

This paper demonstrates that the previously identified cytoplasmic retention signal (CRS) of cyclin B1 in fact contains a nuclear export signal (NES). Cyclin B1 injected into interphase HeLa cell nuclei was rapidly exported. This export was blocked by the CRM1 inhibitor leptomycin B, and by mutation of hydrophobic residues in the NES.

Genes Dev. 12:1998;2131-2143. The most important result of this paper is the direct binding of CRM1 to the newly identified NES of cyclin B1, and further, the finding that phosphorylation within the NES inhibits this binding. This provides evidence that cyclin B1 localization is directly controlled by phosphorylation.

Regulation of the fission yeast transcription factor Pap1 by oxidative stress: requirement for the nuclear export factor Crm1 (Exportin) and the stress-activated MAP kinase Sty1/Spc1. Genes Dev. 12:1998;1453-1463. The NES export factor Crm1 was previously shown to be a negative regulator of the oxidative-stress-responsive transcription factor Pap1. Here, the authors show that Pap1 cytoplasmic localization in the absence of stress is due to Crm1-mediated nuclear export, and that its nuclear localization in response to stress requires the MAP kinase Sty1(Spc1).

The authors demonstrate that the activity of the oxidative-stress-responsive transcription factor yAP-1 is regulated by its nuclear localization, and that this regulation requires a cysteine-rich domain at the carboxyl terminus of the protein that may serve as a sensor for the redox state of the cell.

The importin-β-like protein Pse1p(Kap121p) is identified as the nuclear import factor for the phosphate-starvation-activated transcription factor Pho4p. The authors show a direct biochemical interaction between Pse1p(Kap121p) and Pho4p, which is abolished upon phosphorylation of Pho4p.

The importin-β family member Msn5p is shown to be the export factor for the phosphate sensitive transcription factor Pho4p. Msn5p binds only to the phosphorylated form of Pho4p, thus allowing it to be exported from the nucleus under conditions of high phosphate, when Pho4p-induced transcription is not needed.

Nuclear localization of the Mig1p glucose repressor protein is shown to correlate with its dephosphorylation in the presence of glucose. This glucose-dependent localization is conferred by an internal domain of the protein that is separate from its DNA binding and transcriptional activation domains.
