Nxf1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable mRNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in poly(A)+ mRNA export from nucleus. Predicted to act upstream of or within RNA export from nucleus. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm; nuclear inclusion body; and nuclear speck. Predicted to be part of nuclear RNA export factor complex; nuclear pore; and transcription export complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human NXF1 (nuclear RNA export factor 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Nxf1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
