Summary: Predicted to be a structural constituent of nuclear pore. Involved in several processes, including establishment of mitotic spindle orientation; nuclear pore complex assembly; and positive regulation of nematode male tail tip morphogenesis. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be part of nuclear pore inner ring. Is expressed in embryonic cell. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in nephrotic syndrome type 13. Orthologous to human NUP205 (nucleoporin 205). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

NPP-3 and nucleoporins that are associated with it are lost from the nuclear envelope in the vicinity of centrosomes at the onset of mitosis.
Title: The nucleoporin Nup205/NPP-3 is lost near centrosomes at mitotic onset and can modulate the timing of this process in Caenorhabditis elegans embryos.
