Encyclopedia
Nucleoporin 50 kDa is a protein
Protein
Proteins are biochemical compounds consisting of one or more polypeptides typically folded into a globular or fibrous form, facilitating a biological function. A polypeptide is a single linear polymer chain of amino acids bonded together by peptide bonds between the carboxyl and amino groups of...

 that in humans is encoded by the NUP50 gene
Gene
A gene is a molecular unit of heredity of a living organism. It is a name given to some stretches of DNA and RNA that code for a type of protein or for an RNA chain that has a function in the organism. Living beings depend on genes, as they specify all proteins and functional RNA chains...

Interactions

NUP50 has been shown to interact
Protein-protein interaction
Protein–protein interactions occur when two or more proteins bind together, often to carry out their biological function. Many of the most important molecular processes in the cell such as DNA replication are carried out by large molecular machines that are built from a large number of protein...

 with KPNB1
KPNB1
Importin subunit beta-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KPNB1 gene.-Interactions:KPNB1 has been shown to interact with NUP98, Karyopherin alpha 1, KPNA3, Karyopherin alpha 2, SMN1, Parathyroid hormone-related protein, Nucleoporin 62, RANBP2, Ran , RANBP1, NUP50, P53, NUP153 and...

 and CDKN1B
CDKN1B
Cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1B is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the CDKN1B gene. It encodes a protein which belongs to the Cip/Kip family of cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor proteins. The encoded protein binds to and prevents the activation of cyclin E-CDK2 or cyclin D-CDK4...
