Summary

NDE1 (nudE neurodevelopment protein 1, HGNC:17619) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 16p13.11, encoding Nuclear distribution protein nudE homolog 1 (Q9NXR1). Required for centrosome duplication and formation and function of the mitotic spindle. It is a selective cancer dependency (DepMap: 43.0% of cell lines).

This gene encodes a member of the nuclear distribution E (NudE) family of proteins. The encoded protein is localized at the centrosome and interacts with other centrosome components as part of a multiprotein complex that regulates dynein function. This protein plays an essential role in microtubule organization, mitosis and neuronal migration. Mutations in this gene cause lissencephaly 4, a disorder characterized by lissencephaly, severe brain atrophy, microcephaly, and severe cognitive disability. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Function. Required for centrosome duplication and formation and function of the mitotic spindle. Essential for the development of the cerebral cortex. May regulate the production of neurons by controlling the orientation of the mitotic spindle during division of cortical neuronal progenitors of the proliferative ventricular zone of the brain. Orientation of the division plane perpendicular to the layers of the cortex gives rise to two proliferative neuronal progenitors whereas parallel orientation of the division plane yields one proliferative neuronal progenitor and a postmitotic neuron. A premature shift towards a neuronal fate within the progenitor population may result in an overall reduction in the final number of neurons and an increase in the number of neurons in the deeper layers of the cortex. Acts as a RAB9A/B effector that tethers RAB9-associated late endosomes to the dynein motor for their retrograde transport to the trans-Golgi network.

Subunit / interactions. Homodimer. Interacts with CNTRL, LIS1, dynein, SLMAP and TCP1. Interacts with CENPF, dynactin, tubulin gamma, PAFAH1B1, PCM1 and PCNT. Interacts with ZNF365. Interacts with GTP-bound RAB9A and RAB9B; the interaction leads to RAB9-dynein motor tethering. Interacts (via C-terminus) with MCRS1 (via C-terminus); phosphorylation of NDE1 inhibits the interaction.

Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Cytoskeleton. Microtubule organizing center. Centrosome. Chromosome. Centromere. Kinetochore. Spindle. Cleavage furrow. Cytoplasmic vesicle membrane.

Tissue specificity. Expressed in the neuroepithelium throughout the developing brain, including the cerebral cortex and cerebellum.

Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylated in mitosis. Phosphorylated in vitro by CDC2. Phosphorylation at Thr-246 is essential for the G2/M transition.

Disease relevance. Lissencephaly 4 with microcephaly (LIS4) [MIM:614019] A neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by lissencephaly, severe brain atrophy, extreme microcephaly, and profound intellectual disability. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Microhydranencephaly (MHAC) [MIM:605013] A severe neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by microcephaly, severe motor and intellectual disability, spasticity, and brain malformations that include gross dilation of the ventricles with complete absence of the cerebral hemispheres or severe delay in their development. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Similarity. Belongs to the nudE family.

Enriched among interaction partners

Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 128 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
