Description

NDC1 (NDC1 transmembrane nucleoporin) encodes a transmembrane protein that localizes to the nuclear pore complex (NPC). It is essential for NPC assembly and maintenance, anchoring the NPC to the nuclear envelope. NDC1 interacts with other nucleoporins and is required for proper nucleocytoplasmic transport and cell cycle progression.

Disease Associations

Protein Summary

NDC1 is a 674-amino acid transmembrane nucleoporin with multiple membrane-spanning domains. It is an integral component of the nuclear pore complex, anchoring the NPC to the nuclear envelope. NDC1 interacts with other nucleoporins such as NUP93 and NUP188, and is required for NPC assembly and maintenance. The protein is essential for proper nucleocytoplasmic transport and cell cycle progression.
