title: Identification, nuclear localization, and DNA-binding activity of the zinc finger protein encoded by the Evi-1 myeloid transforming gene.
abstract: Activation of the Evi-1 zinc finger gene is a common event associated with transformation of murine myeloid leukemias. To characterize the gene product, we developed antisera against various protein domains. These antisera primarily detected a 145-kilodalton nuclear protein that bound double-stranded DNA. Binding was inhibited by chelating agents and partially restored by zinc ions.
