Background

The nuclear pore complex (NPC) is a multi-subunit protein channel that spans the nuclear envelope and is responsible for the nucleocytoplasmic trafficking of RNA, proteins, and ribonucleoproteins (1,2). Nucleoporin 153 kDa (NUP153) protein functions as a scaffolding element that recruits other proteins to form the “nuclear basket” on the nuclear side of the pore complex. NUP153 is essential for normal nucleocytoplasmic transport of proteins and mRNAs and is critical for the quality control and retention of unspliced mRNAs in the nucleus (1,2). NUP153 is a potential DNA-binding subunit of the NPC and is important for proper regulation of embryonic stem cell pluripotency and differentiation (1,3). Depletion of NUP153 leads to derepression of developmental genes and induction of early differentiation. NUP153 binds to Nucleoporin-Associated Regions (NARs) that are found near the transcriptional start sites of developmental genes and mediates recruitment of polycomb repressor complex 1 (PRC1) to repress transcription in embryonic stem cells (3).

Species Reactivity

Species reactivity is determined by testing in at least one approved application (e.g., western blot).

Western Blot Buffer

IMPORTANT: For western blots, incubate membrane with diluted primary antibody in 5% w/v BSA, 1X TBS, 0.1% Tween® 20 at 4°C with gentle shaking, overnight.
