Facts about Nuclear mitotic apparatus protein 1.
Plays a role in the creation of the mitotic spindle orientation during metaphase and elongation during anaphase in a dynein-dynactin-dependent manner (PubMed:23870127, PubMed:24109598, PubMed:24996901, PubMed:26765568). In metaphase, part of a ternary complex composed of GPSM2 and G(I) alpha proteins, that regulates the recruitment and anchorage of this dynein-dynactin complex in the mitotic cell cortex regions situated above the two spindle poles, and thus regulates the appropriate oritentation of the mitotic spindle (PubMed:23027904, PubMed:22327364, PubMed:23921553).

Cytoplasm, cell cortex. Cell membrane; Lipid-anchor; Cytoplasmic side. Lateral cell membrane. Mitotic cell cycle-dependent shuttling protein that relocalizes from the interphase nucleus to the spindle poles and cell cortex (PubMed:1541636, PubMed:10811826). The localization to the spindle poles is regulated by AAAS (PubMed:26246606). In interphase, resides in the nuclear matrix (PubMed:1541630, PubMed:1541
