Xpo5 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable several functions, including RISC complex binding activity; RNA binding activity; and nuclear export signal receptor activity. Predicted to contribute to pre-miRNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in pre-miRNA export from nucleus. Predicted to act upstream of or within protein export from nucleus. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of RISC complex and RNA nuclear export complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in breast cancer; gastrointestinal system cancer (multiple); lung carcinoma (multiple); multiple myeloma; and primary ovarian insufficiency. Orthologous to human XPO5 (exportin 5). [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 Xpo5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
