About NASP

Cytogenetic location: 1p34.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:45,584,041-45,618,893 (from NCBI)

This gene has 25 transcripts (splice variants) and 273 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 44.0), bone marrow (RPKM 30.2) and 24 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a H1 histone binding protein that is involved in transporting histones into the nucleus of dividing cells. Multiple isoforms are encoded by transcript variants of this gene. The somatic form is expressed in all mitotic cells, is localized to the nucleus, and is coupled to the cell cycle. The testicular form is expressed in embryonic tissues, tumor cells, and the testis. In male germ cells, this protein is localized to the cytoplasm of primary spermatocytes, the nucleus of spermatids, and the periacrosomal region of mature spermatozoa. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
