Summary
NUP88 (nucleoporin 88, HGNC:8067) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 17p13.2, encoding Nuclear pore complex protein Nup88 (Q99567). Component of nuclear pore complex. It is a common-essential gene (DepMap: required in 98.7% of cancer cell lines).
The nuclear pore complex is a massive structure that extends across the nuclear envelope, forming a gateway that regulates the flow of macromolecules between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. Nucleoporins, a family of 50 to 100 proteins, are the main components of the nuclear pore complex in eukaryotic cells. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the nucleoporin family and is associated with the oncogenic nucleoporin CAN/Nup214 in a dynamic subcomplex. This protein is also overexpressed in a large number of malignant neoplasms and precancerous dysplasias. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.

Disease relevance. Fetal akinesia deformation sequence 4 (FADS4) [MIM:618393] A clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of disorders with congenital malformations related to impaired fetal movement. Clinical features include fetal akinesia, intrauterine growth retardation, polyhydramnios, arthrogryposis, pulmonary hypoplasia, craniofacial abnormalities, and cryptorchidism. FADS4 inheritance is autosomal recessive. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Disease mechanism likely includes impaired formation of the neuromuscular junction. NUP88 silencing in vitro results in reduced levels of rapsyn, a key player in clustering of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) at the neuromuscular junction. Decreased rapsyn levels have also been observed in a patient muscle biopsy.

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.
