Nucleoporins (Nups) are important components of nuclear pore complexes (NPCs). NPCs
control gene expression, cells proliferation and differentiation by mediating exchange of
cellular signal molecules on both nuclear and cytoplasmic sides. Using subtractive
screening, 3'end fragment of Nup 93 from the testis cDNA library of the rice field eel was
obtained. Full-length cDNA of the gene was further cloned by degenerate PCR and 5'RACE
methods. Sequence analysis indicated that the homology of the rice field eel Nup 93 were …
