TLDR
Fusion proteins consisting of maltose binding protein (MBP) and nucleolin are constructed and nuclear targetting of MBP by the bipartite nuclear localization signal of nucleolin became significantly more efficient after addition of either CK2 sites or cdc2 sites to the MBP-NLS construct.

Structure and functions of nucleolin

TL;DR: The involvement of nucleolin at multiple steps of this biosynthetic pathway suggests that it could play a key role in this highly integrated process of ribosome biogenesis.

Molecular dissection of nucleolin’s role in growth and cell proliferation: new insights

TL;DR: Nucleolin is a major nucleolar protein of exponentially growing eukaryotic cells, which is directly involved in the regulation of ribosome biogenesis and maturation, and is a target for regulation by proteolysis, methylation, ADP‐ribosylation, and phosphorylation by CKII, cdc2, PKC‐ξ, cyclic AMP‐dependent protein kinase, and ecto‐protein kinase.

Nucleolin expressed at the cell surface is a marker of endothelial cells in angiogenic blood vessels

TL;DR: Results show that cell surface nucleolin is a specific marker of angiogenic endothelial cells within the vasculature and may be a useful target molecule for diagnostic tests and drug delivery applications.

Antiproliferative Activity of G-rich Oligonucleotides Correlates with Protein Binding *

TL;DR: A series of guanosine-rich phosphodiester oligodeoxynucleotides that strongly inhibit proliferation in a number of human tumor cell lines are described and represent a new class of potentially therapeutic agents with a novel mechanism of action.
