We have found that coilin, the marker protein for Cajal bodies
(coiled bodies, CBs), is a self-interacting protein, and we have mapped
the domain responsible for this activity to the amino-terminus. Together with a nuclear localization signal, the self-interaction domain is necessary and sufficient for localization to CBs.
Overexpression of various wild-type and mutant coilin constructs in
HeLa cells results in disruption of both CBs and survival motor neurons
(SMN) gems. Additionally, we have identified a cryptic nucleolar
localization signal (NoLS), within the coilin protein, which may be
exposed in specific coilin phospho-isoforms. The implications of these findings are discussed in light of the fact that other proteins known
to localize within nuclear bodies (e.g., PML, SMN and Sam68) can
also self-associate. Thus protein self-interaction appears to be a
general feature of nuclear body marker proteins.
