- Background
- Nuclear pore complex protein Nup98-Nup96 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NUP98 gene. This gene is one of several genes located in the imprinted gene domain of 11p15.5, an important tumor-suppressor gene region. NUP98 is a peripheral nucleoporin located at both the cytoplasmic and nuclear sides of the central channel of the NPC. NUP98 phosphorylation is critical for NPC disassembly at the onset of mitosis. It also plays roles in gene expression, mitotic checkpoint, and pathogenesis. Ligand blot analysis suggested that NUP98 can function as a docking protein for cytosol-mediated docking of import substrates. In addition to that, NUP98 is a target of the vesicular stomatitis virus M protein-mediated inhibition of mRNA nuclear export.

- Immunogen
- E.coli-derived human NUP98 recombinant protein (Position: H549-F880) . Human NUP98 shares 95% and 94% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with mouse and rat NUP98, respectively.
- Clonality
- Polyclonal
- Tissue Specificity
- The expression of isoforms 1 and 2 does not seem to overlap. Isoform 1 is expressed by the blood vessels of different tissues. In the developing embryo it is found predominantly in the nervous system. In adult tissues, it is highly expressed in heart and placenta; moderately in lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas; and low in adult brain. Isoform 2 is found in liver hepatocytes, kidney distal and proximal tubules.

- Subcellular Location
- Nucleus. Nucleus membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Nucleoplasmic side. Nucleus, nuclear pore complex. Nup96 is localized to the nucleoplasmic side of the nuclear pore complex (NPC), at or near the nucleoplasmic basket. Dissociates from the dissasembled NPC structure early during prophase of mitosis. Colocalized with NUP153 and TPR to the nuclear basket of NPC. Detected in diffuse and discrete intranuclear foci. Remained localized to the nuclear membrane after poliovirus (PV) infection.
