Published: December 2023

The TREX-2 protein complex is the key complex involved in the export of mRNA from the nucleus to the cytoplasm through the nuclear pores. Previously, a joint protein complex of TREX-2 with ORC was isolated in D. melanogaster. It was shown that the interaction of TREX-2 with ORC is necessary for efficient mRNA export from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. In this work, we showed that the TREX-2-ORC joint complex is also formed in human cells.

ENY2 is an evolutionarily conserved multifunctional protein and is a member of several complexes that regulate various stages of gene expression. ENY2 is a subunit of the TREX-2 complex, which is necessary for the export of bulk mRNA from the nucleus to the cytoplasm through the nuclear pores in many eukaryotes. The wide range of ENY2 functions suggests that it can also associate with other protein factors or complexes.

Article Synopsis
  • Influenza A viruses contain eight genomic RNAs that are transcribed in the host cell nucleus, with two undergoing alternative splicing to produce M1 and M2 mRNAs.
  • The NS1-BP protein helps facilitate the splicing of M1 to M2 mRNA by competing with the viral NS1 protein, which normally inhibits mRNA export.
  • The research suggests a mechanism where spliced M mRNAs are exported from the nucleus despite NS1's inhibitory effects, crucial for the production of viral proteins needed for replication and virus release.

The TREX-2 complex of eukaryotes is responsible for the export of a wide range of mRNAs from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. Previously, we showed that a subunit of the D. melanogaster TREX-2 complex, the PCID2 protein, has a domain that specifically interacts with RNA.

The PCID2 protein is a component of the eukaryotic TREX-2 complex, which is responsible for mRNA export from the nucleus into the cytoplasm. We have previously shown that Drosophila melanogaster PCID2 is involved in specific mRNA recognition and identified the key amino acids responsible for its interaction with the ras2 RNA. In this work, point mutations of the amino acids were shown to disrupt the PCID2 interaction with cell RNAs and to distort the export of polyA-containing mRNAs from the nucleus into the cytoplasm in Drosophila cells.

Perturbation of genes is important for somatic hypermutation to increase antibody affinity during B-cell immunity; however, it may also promote carcinogenesis. Previous studies have revealed that transcription is an important process that can induce DNA damage and genomic instability. Transciption-export-2 (TREX-2) complex, which regulates messenger RNA (mRNA) nuclear export, has been studied in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae; however, recent studies have started investigating the molecular function of the mammalian TREX-2 complex.
