CC -!- FUNCTION: Retroviral replication requires the nuclear export and
CC translation of unspliced, singly-spliced and multiply-spliced
CC derivatives of the initial genomic transcript. Rec interacts with a
CC highly structured RNA element (RcRE) present in the viral 3'LTR and
CC recruits the cellular nuclear export machinery. This permits export to
CC the cytoplasm of unspliced genomic or incompletely spliced subgenomic
CC viral transcripts (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Forms homodimers, homotrimers, and homotetramers via a C-
CC terminal domain. Associates with XPO1 and with ZNF145 (By similarity).
CC {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. Nucleus, nucleolus
CC {ECO:0000250}. Note=Shuttles between the nucleus and the cytoplasm.
CC When in the nucleus, resides in the nucleolus (By similarity).
CC {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Despite functional similarity, Rec shares almost no
CC sequence homology with HIV-1 Rev and HTLV-1 Rex.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: ERVK-21 has a type 2 genome. The HERV-K(HML-2) family
CC contains type 1 and type 2 genomes depending on the absence or presence
CC of 292 nucleotides at the 5'-end of the env gene. Rec proteins are
CC translated from a doubly spliced transcript expressed exclusively by
CC HERV-K(HML-2) type 2 proviral genomes. The first exon comprises the 87
CC N-terminal amino acids of the HERV-K(HMLM-2) type 2 envelope protein.
CC The second exon (18 amino acids) is positioned in the 3' part of the
CC proviral genome.
