    text
  • direct pore membrane binding of NUP155 is critical for Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) formation
  • basic FUNCTION
  • involved in the bidirectional trafficking of molecules, especially mRNAs and proteins, between the nucleus and the cytoplasm
  • may act as a key upstream gene that causes atrial fibrillation by regulating the expression of downstream genes by controlling mRNA nucleocytoplasmic export
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS cellular trafficking transport

    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    constituent of the nuclear pore complex involved in cellular nucleo-cytoplasmic transport
    a component
  • NPC subcomplex containing NUP93, NUP155, and NUP205
  • NUP155, GLE1, and nucleoporin NUPL2 form a heterotrimeric complex
  • formation of a NUP35-NUP155 complex plays a critical role in the processes of nuclear envelope (NE) and nuclear pore complexes assembly
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • interaction with GLE1 (GLE1 association may represent a step in the GLE1-mediated mRNA export pathway)
  • interact with NUP93, NUP35 and NUP205
  • N terminus of POM121 directly binds the beta-propeller regions of NUP155 and NUP160
  • NUP155 is an HDAC4-interacting protein (NUP155-mediated localization was required for HDAC4 effect on gene expression)
  • interaction of NUP35 and NUP155 has a crucial role in NPC formation as the main determinant of recruitment of NUP155 to the assembling pore
  • negative regulatory loop within the nuclear pore complex (NPC) controlling the chromatin attachment state, in which NUP155 and NUP93 recruit NUP62 to suppress chromatin tethering by NUP155
  • self-interaction between the N- and C-terminal domains of NUP155 has an auto-inhibitory function that prevents interaction between the N terminus of NUP155 with the C-terminal region of NUP35
