NPIPB3
Description
The NPIPB3 (nuclear pore complex interacting protein family member B3) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 16.
The NPIPB3 gene, located on chromosome 17, encodes the NPIPB3 protein, which is involved in various cellular processes, including transcription regulation, signal transduction, and cell cycle control. NPIPB3 interacts with PPARα, a nuclear receptor involved in lipid metabolism and inflammation, and contributes to the regulation of gene expression. Furthermore, NPIPB3 interacts with proteins involved in cell cycle progression, suggesting its role in cell growth and proliferation.
NPIPB3, also known as Nuclear Protein Interacting with PIP Box 3, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NPIPB3 gene. This gene is located on chromosome 17 and has been identified as a potential target for therapeutic intervention in various diseases. The NPIPB3 protein is involved in diverse cellular processes, including transcription regulation, signal transduction, and cell cycle control. Specifically, it interacts with the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα), known to play a role in lipid metabolism and inflammation. Through its interaction with PPARα, NPIPB3 contributes to the regulation of gene expression, affecting various metabolic pathways. Furthermore, NPIPB3 has been implicated in the modulation of cell growth and proliferation, as it interacts with other proteins involved in cell cycle progression. The precise role of NPIPB3 in various biological processes is still under investigation, but its involvement in various pathways highlights its potential significance in human health.
NPIPB3 is also known as KIAA0220L, NPIP, NPIPB, NPIPB5, NPIPL3.
