I just found that ... as my english not very good is... can
someone translate the general meaning of it???

Menin, the product of the MEN1 gene, is a nuclear protein.

Research Institute, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda,

The MEN1 gene, mutations in which are responsible for
multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1), encodes a
610-amino acid protein, denoted menin. The amino acid
sequence of this putative tumor suppressor offers no clue to
the function or subcellular location of the protein. We
report herein, based on immunofluorescence, Western blotting
of subcellular fractions, and epitope tagging with enhanced
green fluorescent protein, that menin is located primarily
in the nucleus. Enhanced green fluorescent protein-tagged
menin deletion constructs identify at least two independent
nuclear localization signals (NLS), both located in the
C-terminal fourth of the protein. Among the 68 known
independent disease-associated mutations, none of the 22
missense and 3 in-frame deletions affect either of the
putative NLS sequences. However, if expressed, none of the
truncated menin proteins resulting from the 43 known
frameshift/nonsense mutations would retain both the NLSs.
The precise role(s) of menin in the nucleus remain to be
understood.

Well the record label isn't Men1, it's men. men1 was the
cat. number for the single, i believe...
