  Function in Host
Export adapter involved in nuclear export of spliced andunspliced mRNA. Binds mRNA which is thought to be transferred to theNXF1-NXT1 heterodimer for export (TAP/NFX1 pathway). Component of the TREX complex whichis thought to couple mRNA transcription, processing and nuclear export, and specifically associates with spliced mRNA and not with unsplicedpre-mRNA. TREX isrecruited to spliced mRNAs by a transcription-independent mechanism, binds to mRNA upstream of the exon-junction complex (EJC) and isrecruited in a splicing- and cap-dependent manner to a region near the5' end of the mRNA where it functions in mRNA export to the cytoplasm. TREX recruitmentoccurs via an interaction between ALYREF/THOC4 and the cap-bindingprotein NCBP1. TheTREX complex is essential for the export of Kaposi's sarcoma-associatedherpesvirus (KSHV) intronless mRNAs and infectious virus production;ALYREF/THOC4 mediates the recruitment of the TREX complex to theintronless viral mRNA. Required for TREX complexassembly and for linking DDX39B to the cap-binding complex (CBC). In conjunction with THOC5 functionsin NXF1-NXT1 mediated nuclear export of HSP70 mRNA; both proteinsenhance the RNA binding activity of NXF1 and are required for NXF1localization to the nuclear rim. Involved in thenuclear export of intronless mRNA; proposed to be recruited tointronless mRNA by ATP-bound DDX39B. Involved in transcriptionelongation and genome stability. Involved in mRNA export of C5-methylcytosine (m5C) -containing mRNAs:specifically recognizes and binds m5C mRNAs and mediates their nucleo-cytoplasmic shuttling. [1-11]
