Nup155 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to be a structural constituent of nuclear pore. Predicted to be involved in RNA export from nucleus; protein localization to nucleus; and transcription-dependent tethering of RNA polymerase II gene DNA at nuclear periphery. Predicted to act upstream of or within with a positive effect on miRNA processing and protein localization to nucleus. Predicted to act upstream of or within atrial cardiac muscle cell action potential; mRNA export from nucleus; and nuclear envelope organization. Located in nuclear envelope. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in familial atrial fibrillation. Orthologous to human NUP155 (nucleoporin 155). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 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 Nup155 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
