NMD3 (Nuclear Messenger 3)
NMD3 (Nuclear Messenger 3) is a protein involved in the production of ribosomes, which are essential for protein synthesis in cells. Specifically, NMD3 acts as a transport factor that helps export the large subunit of the ribosome from the nucleus (where ribosomes are assembled) to the cytoplasm (where they function). It ensures that mature ribosomes are correctly assembled and reach their site of action. Proper functioning of NMD3 is crucial for efficient protein production, impacting cell growth and overall health.
