Description

SEH1L encodes a component of the NUP107-160 subcomplex of the nuclear pore complex (NPC). The protein is involved in nucleocytoplasmic transport, mitotic spindle assembly, and kinetochore function. It is structurally related to SEC13 and is essential for NPC assembly and cell cycle progression.

Protein Summary

SEH1L is a 397-amino acid nucleoporin that forms part of the NUP107-160 complex. It contains a beta-propeller domain and localizes to the nuclear envelope. The protein is essential for NPC integrity and has been implicated in chromosome segregation during mitosis.
