| UniProt functional annotation for O15504 | |||
| UniProt code: O15504. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | Required for the export of mRNAs containing poly(A) tails from the nucleus into the cytoplasm. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10610322, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16000379}. | |
| Function: | (Microbial infection) In case of infection by HIV-1, it may participate in the docking of viral Vpr at the nuclear envelope. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12228227}. | |
| Subunit: | Probable component of the nuclear pore complex (NPC). Interacts with nuclear export protein NXF1 (PubMed:10228171). Interacts with GLE1. Able to form a heterotrimer with NUP155 and GLE1 in vitro (PubMed:16000379). Interacts with XPO1 (PubMed:10358091). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10228171, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10358091, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16000379}. | |
| Subunit: | (Microbial infection) Interacts with the HIV-1 virus proteins Rev and Vpr. The interaction with HIV-1 Rev, a protein that mediates nuclear export of unspliced viral RNAs, suggests that its function may be bypassed by the HIV-1 virus. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10358091, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12228227}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Nucleus, nuclear pore complex {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12228227, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16000379}. Nucleus membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12228227, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16000379}; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12228227}. Note=Excluded from the nucleolus. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10358091}. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Ubiquitously expressed. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10358091}. | |
| Domain: | The FG repeats are interaction sites for karyopherins (importins, exportins) and form probably an affinity gradient, guiding the transport proteins unidirectionally with their cargo through the NPC. {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Ptm: | O-glycosylated. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10358091}. | |
