Gene:
exportin, tRNA (nuclear export receptor for tRNAs)
Gene ID:
207403
Symbol:
XPOT
Species:
1000
Description:
This gene encodes a protein belonging to the RAN-GTPase exportin family that mediates export of tRNA from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. Translocation of tRNA to the cytoplasm occurs once exportin has bound both tRNA and GTP-bound RAN.
