The nuclear envelope is a membrane system which surrounds the nucleoplasm of eukaryotic cells. It is composed of the nuclear lamina, nuclear pore complexes and two nuclear membranes. The space between the two membranes is called the nuclear intermembrane space.
Involved in brain development probably by regulating asymmetric division of neuroblasts (PubMed:31735666, PubMed:30550790, PubMed:25259927). Regulates neuroblast asymmetric cell division by controlling asymmetric protein localization of Mira, Baz, Par-6 and aPKC, and spindle alignment (PubMed:31735666). Also, regulates the localization of kinase Ball during mitosis, specifically maintaining Ball in the nucleus during interphase (PubMed:31735666). Required for proper ER and nuclear envelope morphology in neuroblasts (PubMed:31735666). {Experimental EvidencePubMed:25259927, Experimental EvidencePubMed:30550790, Experimental EvidencePubMed:31735666}.
