Invitrogen™ Human NUP210L (aa 1646-1727) Control Fragment Recombinant Protein

Nup210L (nuclear pore membrane glycoprotein 210-like) is a 1,888 amino acid single-pass membrane protein that belongs to the NUP210 family. The gene that encodes Nup210L consists of approximately 162,432 bases and maps to human chromosome 1q21.3. Chromosome 1 is the largest human chromosome spanning about 260 million base pairs and making up 8% of the human genome. There are about 3,000 genes on chromosome 1, and considering the great number of genes there are also a large number of diseases associated with chromosome 1. Notably, the rare aging disease Hutchinson-Gilford progeria is associated with the LMNA gene which encodes lamin A. When defective, the LMNA gene product can build up in the nucleus and cause characteristic nuclear blebs. The MUTYH gene is located on chromosome 1 and is partially responsible for familial adenomatous polyposis. Stickler syndrome, Parkinsons, Gaucher disease and Usher syndrome are also associated with chromosome 1.
