Description

AGFG1 (ArfGAP With FG Repeats 1) encodes a protein that contains FG (phenylalanine-glycine) repeats characteristic of nucleoporins and an ArfGAP domain. It functions as a component of the nuclear pore complex, facilitating nucleocytoplasmic transport, and is known to bind the HIV-1 Rev protein, playing a role in viral RNA export. The gene is located on chromosome 2q11.2 and is expressed in multiple tissues.

Protein Summary

The AGFG1 protein (UniProt P52594) is a 563-amino acid nucleoporin with an N-terminal ArfGAP domain and C-terminal FG repeats. It localizes to the nuclear pore complex and mediates the nuclear export of HIV-1 Rev-bound RNA. The protein also interacts with small GTPases and is involved in cellular trafficking.
