Research Abstract |
Nucleolar protein nucleophosmin was associated with ribosomal protein RPL22 through its C-terminal region. This association was not direct but mediated by RNA. Both cellular localization nor association with RPL22 were influenced by phosphorylation on C-terminal region of nucleophosmin. However, mutant nucleophosmin found in AML patients, did not associate with RPL22.
