Colin Dingwall

Colin Dingwall is a British biochemist and cell biologist. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Biology and a Life Member of Clare Hall, Cambridge UK. Working with Ron Laskey and John Gurdon he identified the bipartite nuclear localization sequence which is the major signal for protein entry into the nucleus.
