RETRACTED: Phosphatase and Tensin Homologue Deleted on Chromosome 10 (PTEN) Has Nuclear Localization Signal–Like Sequences for Nuclear Import Mediated by Major Vault Protein

Abstract

Although phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) localization in the nucleus and cytoplasm is established, the mechanism is unknown. PTEN is a tumor suppressor phosphatase that causes cell cycle arrest and/or apoptosis. Nuclear-cytoplasmic compartmentalization may be a novel mechanism in regulating these events. PTEN does not contain a traditional nuclear localization sequence (NLS); however, we identified putative NLS-like sequences, which we analyzed by site-directed mutagenesis and localization studies in MCF-7 cells. Two double site mutations exhibited nuclear localization defects. Furthermore, unlike wild-type PTEN, double NLS mutant PTEN did not interact with major vault protein (MVP), a previously hypothesized nuclear-cytoplasmic transport protein. We conclude that these two NLS-like sequences are required for PTEN nuclear import that is mediated by MVP. Further, we show that this MVP-mediated nuclear import is independent of PTEN phosphorylation and of the lipid and protein phosphatase activities of PTEN.

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.
