GeneID: 191



Names

Common Name: NOM1 Type: Gene
Chromosome: 7 (NC_000007.14) Locus: N/A
HUGO Symbol: NOM1 Full Name: nucleolar protein with MIF4G domain 1
Exons: 11 Introns: 10

Description:
The NOM1 gene encodes a protein that contains MIF4G and/or MA3 domains. Proteins with these domains function in translation, cell growth, proliferation, transformation and apoptosis. NOM1 (nucleolar protein with MIF4G domain 1) interacts with members of the EIF4A family of ATP-dependent DEAD box RNA helicases that function in translation and nonsense-mediated decay. NOM1 interacts with protein phosphatase 1 (PP1), a serine/threonine kinase required for diverse cellular processes, including cell division, signalling and metabolism. The NOM1 RVXF motif is required for binding to PP1, while the amino terminus of NOM1 is necessary for its nucleolar localization. A polymorphism in this gene associated with HbF response to hydroxyurea in patients with sickle cell disease, while the cellular mechanism involved is currently unknown.
