    Summary
    This gene encodes a transmembrane protein that localizes to the inner nuclear membrane and forms a core component of the nuclear pore complex, which mediates transport to and from the nucleus. The encoded protein may anchor this complex to the nuclear envelope. There are multiple related genes and pseudogenes for this gene on chromosomes 5, 7, 15, and 22. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been observed. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
    Annotation information
    Note: POM121 (Gene ID: 9883) and POMZP3 (Gene ID: 22832) share the POM121 symbol/alias in common. POM121 is sometimes used as an alternative name for POM121 and ZP3 fusion, which can be confused with the official symbol for POM121 transmembrane nucleoporin (POM121). [05 Jul 2018]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
