Summary
NUP160 (nucleoporin 160, HGNC:18017) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 11p11.2, encoding Nuclear pore complex protein Nup160 (Q12769). Functions as a component of the nuclear pore complex (NPC). It is a common-essential gene (DepMap: required in 94.2% of cancer cell lines).
A structural constituent of nuclear pore. Involved in mRNA export from nucleus and nephron development. Located in kinetochore and nuclear envelope. Part of nuclear pore outer ring. Implicated in nephrotic syndrome type 19.

Literature-anchored findings (GeneRIF, showing 12)
- Nup107-160 complex is dynamic in mitosis and that it promotes spindle assembly in a manner that is distinct from its functions at interphase nuclear pores. (PMID:16807356)
- phosphorylation does not affect interactions within the Nup107-160 subcomplex, but regulates the association of the subcomplex with the NPC and other proteins (PMID:17360435)
- These data thus provide the first molecular clues underlying the function of the human Nup107-160 complex at kinetochores. (PMID:17363900)
- Data show that structure-guided sequence comparison of Nup160 and Saccharomyces cerevisiae Nup120 strongly suggests that both proteins adopt the same unique fold despite a low sequence identity of 10%. (PMID:19576787)
- A major function of the Nup107 complex in mitosis is to ensure the proper localization of the chromosome passenger complex at the centromere. (PMID:19864462)
- Data show that Nup107-160 promotes spindle assembly through Ran-GTP-regulated nucleation of microtubules by gamma-TuRC at kinetochores, and reveal a relationship between nucleoporins and the microtubule cytoskeleton. (PMID:20081840)
- The interactions of Nup160 with Pom121 and are predicted to assist in the formation of the nuclear pore and the anchoring of the Nuclear pore complexes to the pore membrane. (PMID:20974814)
- The SUMO-specific isopeptidase SENP2 associates dynamically with nuclear pore complexes through interactions with karyopherins and the Nup107-160 nucleoporin subcomplex. (PMID:22031293)

Function. Functions as a component of the nuclear pore complex (NPC). Involved in poly(A)+ RNA transport.
Subunit / interactions. Part of the nuclear pore complex (NPC). Forms part of the NUP160 subcomplex in the nuclear pore which is composed of NUP160, NUP133, NUP107 and NUP96. This complex plays a role in RNA export and in tethering NUP98 and NUP153 to the nucleus.
Subcellular location. Nucleus. Nuclear pore complex.
Disease relevance. Nephrotic syndrome 19 (NPHS19) [MIM:618178] A form of nephrotic syndrome, a renal disease clinically characterized by severe proteinuria, resulting in complications such as hypoalbuminemia, hyperlipidemia and edema. Kidney biopsies show non-specific histologic changes such as focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and diffuse mesangial proliferation. Some affected individuals have an inherited steroid-resistant form that progresses to end-stage renal failure. NPHS19 is an autosomal recessive, steroid-resistant form with onset in the first or second decade of life, resulting in chronic kidney disease. The disease may be caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 171 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.
