Popis: | The biogenesis of most eukaryotic kinds of RNA requires nuclear export, which is mediated by a variety of specific nuclear transport receptors. The nuclear export receptors Exportin-t (Exp-t) and Exportin 5 (Exp5), and their homologues, are involved in the export of transfer RNA to the cytoplasm. Exp5 is further involved in additional nucleocytoplasmic transport pathways, which include nuclear export of microRNA precursors (pre-miRNAs) and pre-60S ribosomal subunits. Inactivation of Exp5 results in nuclear accumulation of pre-miRNAs and perturbation of gene expression, and its mutation was recently found in malignant diseases. Here, we compare the cellular function of Exp5 and Exp-t with focus on Exp5 substrates and its role in diseases. |
