mislocalized protein during vegetative growth increased punctate nuclear protein localization increased protein localization to nuclear puncta FYPO:0005116 A cell phenotype in which a protein is localized to discrete regions in the nucleus, visible as foci or dots by microscopy, to a greater extent observed than in normal (wild type) cells. increased punctate nuclear protein localisation increased punctate nuclear protein localization during vegetative growth 2015-12-08T16:21:53Z This term can be used for protein that do not normally localize to discrete nuclear regions, or for proteins that do normally show punctate localization but with such localization increased in a mutant. We recommend noting which protein(s) were used in the assay when annotating to this term. midori increased punctate nuclear protein localization during mitotic cell cycle
