Nestin — P48681 (reviewed: P48681)
All UniProt accessions (1): P48681
UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. Required for brain and eye development. Promotes the disassembly of phosphorylated vimentin intermediate filaments (IF) during mitosis and may play a role in the trafficking and distribution of IF proteins and other cellular factors to daughter cells during progenitor cell division. Required for survival, renewal and mitogen-stimulated proliferation of neural progenitor cells.
Subunit / interactions. Forms homodimers and homotetramers in vitro. In mixtures with other intermediate filament proteins such as vimentin and alpha-internexin, tis protein preferentially forms heterodimers which can assemble to form intermediate filaments if nestin does not exceed 25%. Interacts with FHOD3.
Tissue specificity. CNS stem cells.
Post-translational modifications. Constitutively phosphorylated. This increases during mitosis when the cytoplasmic intermediate filament network is reorganized.
Similarity. Belongs to the intermediate filament family.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 121 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.
