Key constituents of the mRNA export machinery

Yeast Human Function
Mex67•Mtr2 NXF1•NXT1 (TAP•p15) Principal export receptor for bulk mRNA export
In the nucleus
Sub2 UAP56 DEAD-box ATPase that remodels nuclear mRNP, component of the TREX complex
Yra1 ALY (REF, THOC4) Adaptor for the export receptor, component of the TREX complex
THO THO A multi-subunit complex, component of the TREX complex
Nab2 ZC3H14 Poly(A) RNA binding protein
TREX-2 TREX-2 A multi-subunit complex that targets actively transcribed genes to the NPC
At the NPC cytoplasmic face
Dbp5 DDX19 DEAD-box ATPase that remodels mRNP at the cytoplasmic side of the NPC
Gle1 GLE1 Activator of Dbp5/DDX19, requires IP6 for mRNA export
Nup42 NUP42 (hCG1) FG-Nucleoporin to which Gle1/GLE1 binds
Nup159 NUP214 (CAN) FG-Nucleoporin to which Dbp5/DDX19 binds
Nup116 NUP98 FG-Nucleoporin, binds to the export receptor
Gle2 RAE1 mRNA export factor, binds to Nup116/NUP98
