Most cancner tissues displayed weak to moderate nuclear positivity. Few cases of ovarian and colorectal cancers showed strong immunoreactivity. Many cases of lymphomas and gliomas were negative.

Description
NSA2 ribosome biogenesis homolog (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a nucleolar protein involved in cell cycle regulation and proliferation. This gene was identified based on sequence similarity to a highly conserved Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene encoding a pre-ribosomal protein, which is involved in large ribosomal subunit biogenesis. The encoded protein is found at elevated levels in diabetic nephropathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Several related pseudogenes have been identified.
