Mitotic regulator protein RCC1 is complexed with a nuclear ras-related polypeptide.
Open accessAbstract
We previously reported the purification of a complex of two proteins from human chromatin, consisting of a 47-kDa component called RCC1, which is a negative regulator of mitosis, and a 25-kDa protein. Here we show that the 25-kDa protein has a ras-related sequence. It binds guanine nucleotides, and excess Mg2+ and GDP or GTP dissociate the complex. Immunofluorescence studies and biochemical properties indicate that this polypeptide, in contrast to most members of the Ras family, is present in the nucleoplasm as a soluble monomer, in 25-fold excess over the complexed form. We designate this polypeptide Ran, for ras-related nuclear protein.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
