[Progress on the subcellular localization of Daxx].

As a highly conserved nuclear protein, death domain-associated protein(Daxx) plays an important role in transcriptional control, carcinogenesis, resistance to virus infection, and so on. Daxx can be localized in promyleocytic leukaemia protein oncogenic domains, nucleoplasm, nucleolus, cytoplasm, and heterochromatin. The subcellular localization of Daxx can be changed by modification or interacting with other proteins. Under cellular stress, Daxx can interact with many kinds of molecules, and thus affect its downstream signaling pathway. The purpose of this review was to discuss Daxx's subcellular localization in different conditions and its translocation between subcellular compartments.
