OverviewNCBI Gene
The nuclear pore complex (NPC) is found on the nuclear envelope and forms a gateway that regulates the flow of proteins and RNAs between the cytoplasm and nucleoplasm. The NPC is comprised of approximately 30 distinct proteins collectively known as nucleoporins. Nucleoporins are pore-complex-specific glycoproteins which often have cytoplasmically oriented O-linked N-acetylglucosamine residues and numerous repeats of the pentapeptide sequence XFXFG. However, the nucleoporin protein encoded by this gene does not contain the typical FG repeat sequences found in most vertebrate nucleoporins. This nucleoporin is thought to form part of the scaffold for the central channel of the nuclear pore. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2013]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads NUP188 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against NUP188 could matter depends on whether native NUP188 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
NUP188 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 NUP188 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
