Nuclear pore complex interacting protein family member B9 (NPIPB9)

Nuclear pore complex interacting protein family member B9 (NPIPB9) is a protein-coding gene in humans, part of a family of genes encoding nuclear pore complex-interacting proteins (NPIP family)[4][1][3]. This protein is associated with nuclear pore structures, potentially involved in nuclear envelope organization or transport between the nucleus and cytoplasm, although its precise biological functions remain unclear[3][1]. NPIPB9 is not classified as a receptor, enzyme, transporter, or other canonical therapeutic target[4]. Genetic variants have been weakly associated with conditions such as autism spectrum disorder and oxidative phosphorylation deficiency, but its direct disease role is not well-established[4]. The NPIP family is notable for segmental duplications, complicating analysis of its members and their roles[3]. There is no known interaction with drugs, established biomarker utility, or specific safety concerns associated with NPIPB9[4][1][3].
