Structural requirements for pre-microRNA binding and nuclear export by Exportin 5.
The biogenesis and function of mature human microRNAs is dependent on the nuclear export of pre-microRNA precursors by Exportin 5 (Exp5). The precursor for the human miR-30 microRNA, which is a 63 nt long RNA hairpin bearing a 2 nt 3' overhang, forms a specific complex with Exp5 and the Ran-GTP cofactor. Here, we have examined the structural requirements for pre-microRNA binding by Exp5. Our da...
متن کاملMicroRNA precursors in motion: exportin-5 mediates their nuclear export.
The discovery of microRNSs (miRNAs) has changed the paradigm of gene regulation, leaving us with numerous exciting questions regarding what these molecules do and how they originate. A model for miRNA biogenesis has emerged recently, yet several key factors--including the identity of the miRNA nuclear export receptor--remained unknown. However, recent studies have shown that exportin-5 (Exp5), ...
متن کاملExportin 5 is a RanGTP-dependent dsRNA-binding protein that mediates nuclear export of pre-miRNAs.
microRNAs (miRNAs) are widespread among eukaryotes, and studies in several systems have revealed that miRNAs can regulate expression of specific genes. Primary miRNA transcripts are initially processed to approximately 70-nucleotide (nt) stem-loop structures (pre-miRNAs), exported to the cytoplasm, further processed to yield approximately 22-nt dsRNAs, and finally incorporated into ribonucleopr...
متن کاملExportin-5 mediates the nuclear export of pre-microRNAs and short hairpin RNAs.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are initially expressed as long transcripts that are processed in the nucleus to yield approximately 65-nucleotide (nt) RNA hairpin intermediates, termed pre-miRNAs, that are exported to the cytoplasm for additional processing to yield mature, approximately 22-nt miRNAs. Here, we demonstrate that human pre-miRNA nuclear export, and miRNA function, are dependent on Exportin-5....
متن کاملExportin-5 mediates nuclear export of SRP RNA in vertebrates
The signal recognition particle is a ribonucleoprotein complex that is essential for the translocation of nascent proteins into the endoplasmic reticulum. It has been shown that the RNA component (SRP RNA) is exported from the nucleus by CRM1 in the budding yeast. However, how SRP RNA is exported in higher species has been elusive. Here, we show that SRP RNA does not use the CRM1 pathway in Xen...
