  • two conserved RecA-like domains that adopt different open structures in the absence of nucleic acid and a closed structure when bound to RNA and ATP
  • a C terminal RNA helicase domain

    text
  • nuclear rims, localized to the cytoplasmic fibrils of the nuclear pore complex
  • concentrated and locally activated at the cytoplasmic side of the nuclear pore complex, predominantly cytoplasmic, with a fraction enriched at the nuclear envelope
  • present mainly in the cytoplasm and is enriched at the cytoplasmic side of nuclear pore complexes (NPCs), suggesting that it acts in the late part of mRNP export (Zhao 2002)
  • basic FUNCTION
  • RNA-dependent ATPase and ATP-dependent RNA-unwinding activities
  • essential role for nucleocytoplasmic transport of mRNA-protein (mRNP) complexes
  • recruited to the nuclear pore complex and participating in the export of mRNA from the nucleus
  • central player in the terminal and directional release of mRNA at the cytoplasmic side of the nuclear envelope
  • plays an essential role in the nuclear export of mRNA
  • crucial role for mRNA export, and having remodeling activity toward the displacement of the RNA binding protein NAB2
  • functions in mRNA export and is thought to remodel mRNPs at the nuclear pore complex (NPC)
  • recruited to the cytoplasmic filaments of the nuclear pore complex that is mediated by the nucleoporin NUP214
  • enriched at the cytoplasmic face of the nuclear pore complex and may play a critical role in the mRNA-protein complex rearrangement observed on cytoplasmic entry
  • playing a role with GLE1 in translation termination
  • ATP-dependent RNA binding protein that dissociates from RNA on each hydrolysis event
  • CELLULAR PROCESS nucleotide

  • protein
  • bound to the cytoplasmic nucleoporin NUP214 (NUP214 decreases both the RNA binding and ATPase activities of DDX19B)
  • binds to GLE1, components of the cytoplasmic filaments of the nuclear pore complex (GLE1 activate DDX19B ATPase activity and could provide critical spatial regulation of DDX19B activity)
