Functions as an mRNA export adapter; component of the transcription/export (TREX) complex which is thought to couple mRNA transcription, processing and nuclear export, and specifically associates with spliced mRNA and not with unspliced pre-mRNA (PubMed:15833825, PubMed:15998806, PubMed:17190602). TREX is recruited to spliced mRNAs by a transcription-independent mechanism, binds to mRNA upstream of the exon-junction complex (EJC) and is recruited in a splicing- and cap-dependent manner to a region near the 5' end of the mRNA where it functions in mRNA export to the cytoplasm via the TAP/NXF1 pathway (PubMed:15833825, PubMed:15998806, PubMed:17190602). Involved in the nuclear export of intronless mRNA; proposed to be recruited to intronless mRNA by ATP-bound DDX39B (PubMed:17984224). Plays a key role in mRNP recognition and mRNA packaging by bridging the mRNP-bound EJC and the TREX core complex (PubMed:37020021). TREX recruitment occurs via an interaction between ALYREF/THOC4 and the cap-binding protein NCBP1 (PubMed:15833825, PubMed:15998806, PubMed:17190602, PubMed:37020021). Required for TREX complex assembly and for linking DDX39B to the cap-binding complex (CBC) (PubMed:15998806, PubMed:17984224, PubMed:37020021). Binds mRNA which is thought to be transferred to the NXF1-NXT1 heterodimer for export (TAP/NXF1 pathway) (PubMed:11675789, PubMed:11707413, PubMed:11979277, PubMed:15833825, PubMed:15998806, PubMed:17190602, PubMed:18364396, PubMed:22144908, PubMed:22893130, PubMed:23222130, PubMed:25662211). In conjunction with THOC5 functions in NXF1-NXT1 mediated nuclear export of HSP70 mRNA; both proteins enhance the RNA binding activity of NXF1 and are required for NXF1 localization to the nuclear rim (PubMed:19165146). Involved in mRNA export of C5-methylcytosine (m5C)-containing mRNAs: specifically recognizes and binds m5C mRNAs and mediates their nucleo-cytoplasmic shuttling (PubMed:28418038). Acts as a chaperone and promotes the dimerization of transcription factors containing basic leucine zipper (bZIP) domains and thereby promotes transcriptional activation (PubMed:10488337). Involved in transcription elongation and genome stability (PubMed:12438613).(Microbial infection) The TREX complex is essential for the export of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) intronless mRNAs and infectious virus production; ALYREF/THOC4 mediates the recruitment of the TREX complex to the intronless viral mRNA.

Aly/Ref also known as THOC4 is a protein that plays an important role in mRNA processing and transport. It is a member of the TREX (transcription/export) complex having a molecular mass of approximately 27 kDa. Aly/Ref is primarily expressed in the nucleus where it binds to spliced mRNAs and ensures their export to the cytoplasm. Functionally Aly/Ref interacts with mRNA export adapters attaching to the cap-binding complex at the 5' end of mRNA facilitating its journey to the nuclear pore.
Aly/Ref functions by forming tight associations with the TREX complex which includes other proteins like UAP56. It is responsible for coupling transcription with mRNA processing and export helping to maintain the integrity of gene expression. Aly/Ref directly influences the efficiency and accuracy of mRNA export impacting gene regulation by ensuring that only fully processed transcripts exit the nucleus. By doing so it helps coordinate the transcription and mRNA export processes.
Aly/Ref associates with the mRNA surveillance pathway and the RNA export pathway. Aly/Ref works closely with proteins like EJC components which are involved in checking mRNA quality before export. This participation ensures that only correctly spliced mRNAs move from the nucleus to the cytoplasm where they translate into proteins. Aly/Ref also contributes to maintaining cellular homeostasis by regulating the amount of mRNA available for translation.
Aly/Ref relates to cancer and neurological disorders. Changes in the expression or function of Aly/Ref can disrupt mRNA export leading to abnormal protein synthesis which is associated with cancer development. Furthermore Aly/Ref interacts with proteins such as NXF1 which are implicated in the onset of certain neurological disorders when mutated or misregulated revealing its broader impact on cellular health and disease progression.

IHC image of ab6141 staining in human normal skin formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section, performed on a Leica BondTM system using the standard protocol F. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab6141, 1µg/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.
For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times.
