Exportin-5 (XPO5) is a protein that, in humans, is encoded by the XPO5 gene.[5][6][7] In eukaryotic cells, the primary purpose of XPO5 is to export pre-microRNA (also known as pre-miRNA) out of the nucleus and into the cytoplasm, for further processing by the Dicer enzyme.[8][9][10][11] Once in the cytoplasm, the microRNA (also known as miRNA) can act as a gene silencer by regulating translation of mRNA. Although XPO5 is primarily involved in the transport of pre-miRNA, it has also been reported to transport tRNA.[12] [from: Wikipedia contributors. (2019, February 11). XPO5.
