Facts about Exportin-7.
Docking of this trimeric complex to the nuclear pore complex (NPC) is mediated through binding to nucleoporins. Upon transit of a nuclear export complex into the cytoplasm, disassembling of the complicated and hydrolysis of Ran-GTP into Ran-GDP (triggered by RANBP1 and RANGAP1, respectively) trigger release of the cargo in the export receptor.

Strong expression in testis, thyroid and bone marrow, low expression in lung, liver and small intestine, no expression in thymus, and remaining tissues studied have moderate expression. Expressed in red blood cells; overexpressed in red blood cells (cytoplasm) of patients with hereditary non- spherocytic hemolytic anemia of unknown etiology.
