Model depicting the proposed role of SUN1 phosphorylation in mRNA export. SUN1 binds mRNP/NXF1 complexes at the nuclear envelope (NE). Upon an unidentified signal, SUN1 is phosphorylated at S113 by a PKC. This reduces the NXF1 affinity and the complex then binds to NUP153 which is also associated with SUN1 at the NE. The mRNP is targeted to the nuclear pore and exported.
