NPM1: a nucleolar protein associated with nucleolar ribonucleoprotein structures and that binds single-stranded nucleic acids. Is a major component of template activating factor (TAF)-III. It plays a role in controlling centrosome duplication, and may function in the assembly and/or transport of the ribosome. Two alternatively spliced isoforms have been described.
