| UniProt functional annotation for Q99257 | |||
| UniProt code: Q99257. |
| Organism: | Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain ATCC 204508 / S288c) (Baker's yeast). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Fungi; Dikarya; Ascomycota; Saccharomycotina; Saccharomycetes; Saccharomycetales; Saccharomycetaceae; Saccharomyces. | |
| Function: | Involved in the export of mRNA from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00611, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9214641}. | |
| Subunit: | Interacts with nucleoporin complex NUP84 and MTR2. Interacts with MIP6. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12835756, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9214641}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Note=Localizes at both the nuclear and cytoplasmic site of the pores. Shuttles between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. | |
| Domain: | The leucine-rich repeats and the NTF2-domain are essential for the export of mRNA from the nucleus. {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Domain: | The NTF2 domain heterodimerizes with MTR2. The formation of this heterodimer is essential for mRNA export and binds to all of the nucleoporin-FG-repeats. | |
| Domain: | The RNA-binding domain is conserved in most NXF proteins but may be absent in yeasts. | |
| Miscellaneous: | Present with 2830 molecules/cell in log phase SD medium. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14562106}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the NXF family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
