Synonyms | TAP |
Function | Involved in the nuclear export of mRNA species bearing retroviral constitutive transport elements (CTE) and in the export of mRNA from the nucleus to the cytoplasm (TAP/NFX1 pathway) (PubMed:10924507). The NXF1-NXT1 heterodimer is involved in the export of HSP70 mRNA in conjunction with ALYREF/THOC4 and THOC5 components of the TREX complex (PubMed:18364396, PubMed:19165146, PubMed:9660949). ALYREF/THOC4-bound mRNA is thought to be transferred to the NXF1-NXT1 heterodimer for export (PubMed:18364396, PubMed:19165146, PubMed:9660949). Also involved in nuclear export of m6A-containing mRNAs: interaction between SRSF3 and YTHDC1 facilitates m6A-containing mRNA-binding to both SRSF3 and NXF1, promoting mRNA nuclear export (PubMed:28984244). |
Cellular Location | Nucleus. Nucleus, nucleoplasm Nucleus speckle. Nucleus, nuclear pore complex. Nucleus envelope. Cytoplasm. Cytoplasm, Stress granule. Note=Localized predominantly in the nucleoplasm and at both the nucleoplasmic and cytoplasmic faces of the nuclear pore complex. Shuttles between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. Travels to the cytoplasm as part of the exon junction complex (EJC) bound to mRNA. The association with the TREX complex seems to occur in regions surrounding nuclear speckles known as perispeckles (PubMed:23826332). Nucleus; nuclear rim (PubMed:25662211) |
Tissue Location | Expressed ubiquitously. |

Background
This gene is one member of a family of nuclear RNA export factor genes. Common domain features of this family are a noncanonical RNP-type RNA-binding domain (RBD), 4 leucine-rich repeats (LRRs), a nuclear transport factor 2 (NTF2)-like domain that allows heterodimerization with NTF2-related export protein-1 (NXT1), and a ubiquitin-associated domain that mediates interactions with nucleoporins. The LRRs and NTF2-like domains are required for export activity. Alternative splicing seems to be a common mechanism in this gene family. The encoded protein of this gene shuttles between the nucleus and the cytoplasm and binds in vivo to poly(A)+ RNA. It is the vertebrate homologue of the yeast protein Mex67p. The encoded protein overcomes the mRNA export block caused by the presence of saturating amounts of CTE (constitutive transport element) RNA of type D retroviruses. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
