Nusap1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable microtubule binding activity. Predicted to be involved in establishment of mitotic spindle localization; mitotic chromosome condensation; and mitotic cytokinesis. Predicted to act upstream of or within mitotic sister chromatid segregation and positive regulation of mitotic nuclear division. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and microtubule. Predicted to be active in mitotic spindle and nucleolus. Orthologous to human NUSAP1 (nucleolar and spindle associated protein 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Nusap1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
