NUP98

Domain

Contains G-L-F-G repeats. The FG repeat domains in Nup98 have a direct role in the transport.

Function

Plays a role in the nuclear pore complex (NPC) assembly and/or maintenance. NUP98 and NUP96 are involved in the bidirectional transport across the NPC (PubMed:33097660). May anchor NUP153 and TPR to the NPC. In cooperation with DHX9, plays a role in transcription and alternative splicing activation of a subset of genes (PubMed:28221134). Involved in the localization of DHX9 in discrete intranuclear foci (GLFG-body) (PubMed:28221134).

(Microbial infection) Interacts with HIV-1 capsid protein P24 and nucleocapsid protein P7 and may thereby promote the integration of the virus in the host nucleus (in vitro) (PubMed:23523133). Binding affinity to HIV-1 CA-NC complexes bearing the capsid change Asn-74-Asp is reduced (in vitro) (PubMed:23523133).

Involvement in disease

Chromosomal aberrations involving NUP98 have been found in acute myeloid leukemia. Translocation t(7;11)(p15;p15) with HOXA9 (PubMed:8563753). The chimera includes NUP98 intrinsic disordered regions which contribute to aberrant liquid-liquid phase separation puncta of the chimera in the nucleus. This phase-separation enhances the chimera genomic targeting and induces organization of aberrant three-dimensional chromatin structures leading to tumorous transformation (PubMed:34163069). Translocation t(11;17)(p15;p13) with PHF23 (PubMed:17287853).

A chromosomal aberration involving NUP98 has been found in M0 type acute myeloid leukemia. Translocation t(4;11)(q23;p15) with RAP1GDS1.

A chromosomal aberration involving NUP98 has been found in T-cell acute lymphocytic leukemia. Translocation t(4;11)(q23;p15) with RAP1GDS1.

A chromosomal aberration involving NUP98 has been found in M5 type acute myeloid leukemia. Translocation t(11;12)(p15;p13) with KDM5A.

Chromosomal aberrations involving NUP98 have been found in childhood acute myeloid leukemia. Translocation t(5;11)(q35;p15.5) with NSD1. Translocation t(8;11)(p11.2;p15) with WHSC1L1.

Chromosomal aberrations involving NUP98 have been found in M7 type childhood acute myeloid leukemia. Translocation t(11;12)(p15;p13) with KDM5A.

A chromosomal aberration involving NUP98 is found in a form of therapy-related myelodysplastic syndrome. Translocation t(11;20)(p15;q11) with TOP1.

A chromosomal aberration involving NUP98 is found in a form of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). Translocation t(3;11)(q12.2;p15.4) with LNP1.

A chromosomal aberration involving NUP98 is associated with pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with intermediate characteristics between M2-M3 French-American-British (FAB) subtypes. Translocation t(9;11)(p22;p15) with PSIP1/LEDGF. The chimeric transcript is an in-frame fusion of NUP98 exon 8 to PSIP1/LEDGF exon 4.

A chromosomal aberration involving NUP98 has been identified in acute leukemias. Translocation t(6;11)(q24.1;p15.5) with CCDC28A. The chimeric transcript is an in-frame fusion of NUP98 exon 13 to CCDC28A exon 2. Ectopic expression of NUP98-CCDC28A in mouse promotes the proliferative capacity and self-renewal potential of hematopoietic progenitors and rapidly induced fatal myeloproliferative neoplasms and defects in the differentiation of the erythro-megakaryocytic lineage.

Post-translational modifications

Isoform 1 to isoform 4 are autoproteolytically cleaved to yield Nup98 and Nup96 or Nup98 only, respectively (PubMed:10087256, PubMed:12191480, PubMed:18287282, PubMed:20407419). Cleaved Nup98 is necessary for the targeting of Nup98 to the nuclear pore and the interaction with Nup96 (PubMed:12191480, PubMed:20407419).

Proteolytically degraded after poliovirus (PV) infection; degradation is partial and NCP- and TPR-binding domains withstand degradation.
