NUDC
Molecular classification
Other (mitotic protein, chaperone-like, spindle assembly factor; not classified as receptor, enzyme, transporter, channel, or transcription factor)
01

Overview

**Nuclear distribution protein C (NUDC)** is a conserved intracellular protein essential for correct mitosis and cytokinesis, where it is required for mitotic spindle formation, chromosome segregation, microtubule organization, and completion of cell division[1][2][3][6]. It also has documented roles in cell proliferation, neurogenesis, neuronal migration, and possibly cellular stress response and protein folding via chaperone-like activities[1][2][6]. NUDC is not a receptor, enzyme, or transporter, but rather a regulatory and scaffolding factor within the dynein motor complex and cytoskeletal processes[1][2][3][6]. Its dysfunction is linked to developmental abnormalities, such as lissencephaly, and it is under continued investigation for roles in cancer and neurodevelopmental disease[1][3].
