The NUP98 gene (chromosome 11p15) encodes a nucleoporin protein, which is part of the nuclear pore complex which regulates nucleocytoplasmic transport of protein and RNA. NUP98 fusion proteins involve the N-terminal portion of NUP98 and the C-terminal portion of the fusion partner. These fusion partners consist of homeodomain proteins, which are transcription factors, and non-homeodomain proteins, which are thought to play a role in transcriptional or epigenetic regulation.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":1">{{Cite journal|last=Bertrums|first=Eline J.
