Uniprot Id

O75694

Target Species

Human

Target Name

NUP155

Target Full Name

Nuclear pore complex protein Nup155

Target Function

Essential component of nuclear pore complex. Could be essessential for embryogenesis. Nucleoporins may be involved both in binding and translocating proteins during nucleocytoplasmic transport.

Target Involvement

Atrial fibrillation, familial, 15 (ATFB15)

Target Subcellular Location

Nucleus, nuclear pore complex. Nucleus membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Nucleus membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Nucleoplasmic side.

Target Protein Families

Non-repetitive/WGA-negative nucleoporin family

Target Tissue Specificity

Expressed in all tissues tested, including heart, brain, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas.

Target Synonyms

155 kDa nucleoporin; ATFB15; D930027M19Rik; KIAA0791; mKIAA0791; N155; NU155_HUMAN; Nuclear pore complex protein Nup155; nucleoporin 155kD; Nucleoporin Nup155; Nup155

Target Background

Nucleoporins are proteins that play an important role in the assembly and functioning of the nuclear pore complex (NPC) which regulates the movement of macromolecules across the nuclear envelope (NE). The protein encoded by this gene plays a role in the fusion of NE vesicles and formation of the double membrane NE. The protein may also be involved in cardiac physiology and may be associated with the pathogenesis of atrial fibrillation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants of this gene. A pseudogene associated with this gene is located on chromosome 6.
