OverviewNCBI Gene

Nuclear pore complexes regulate the transport of macromolecules between the nucleus and cytoplasm. They are composed of at least 100 different polypeptide subunits, many of which belong to the nucleoporin family. Nucleoporins are glycoproteins found in nuclear pores and contain characteristic pentapeptide XFXFG repeats as well as O-linked N-acetylglucosamine residues oriented towards the cytoplasm. The protein encoded by this gene has three distinct domains: a N-terminal region containing a pore targeting and an RNA-binding domain domain, a central region containing multiple zinc finger motifs, and a C-terminal region containing multiple XFXFG repeats. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants of this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads NUP153 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against NUP153 could matter depends on whether native NUP153 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

NUP153 is annotated as predominantly intracellular. Intracellular proteins are common autoantibody markers, becoming visible to the immune system after cell injury or altered processing, but are usually markers of disease rather than direct drivers.

Annotation status

The present source text does not explicitly label NUP153 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
