Description

NPIPB3 (Nuclear Pore Complex Interacting Protein Family Member B3) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 16p13.3. It belongs to the NPIP (nuclear pore complex interacting protein) family, which is involved in nuclear transport and cell cycle regulation. The gene is primarily expressed in testis and certain cancer cell lines. NPIPB3 has been implicated in nuclear pore complex dynamics and may play a role in spermatogenesis and tumorigenesis.

Protein Summary

NPIPB3 encodes a protein of 364 amino acids that localizes to the nuclear pore complex. It contains a conserved NPIP domain and is predicted to interact with nucleoporins. The protein may regulate nuclear transport and cell cycle progression. Expression is enriched in testis, suggesting a role in spermatogenesis.
