UPF1

This gene encodes a protein that is part of a post-splicing multiprotein complex involved in both mRNA nuclear export and mRNA surveillance. mRNA surveillance detects exported mRNAs with truncated open reading frames and initiates nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). When translation ends upstream from the last exon-exon junction, this triggers NMD to degrade mRNAs containing premature stop codons. This protein is located only in the cytoplasm. When translation ends, it interacts with the protein that is a functional homolog of yeast Upf2p to trigger mRNA decapping. Use of multiple polyadenylation sites has been noted for this gene. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014]

Interaction

Found in a post-splicing messenger ribonucleoprotein (mRNP) complex (PubMed:21419344). Associates with the exon junction complex (EJC) (PubMed:11546874, PubMed:16452507). Associates with the SGM1C complex; is phosphorylated by the complex kinase component SGM1 (PubMed:19417104). Part of a complex composed of SMG1, DHX34 and UPF1; within the complex DHX34 acts as a scaffolding protein to facilitate SMG1 phosphorylation of UPF1 (PubMed:26841701). Interacts with UPF2 (PubMed:11163187, PubMed:11073994, PubMed:11113196, PubMed:19556969). Interacts with UPF3A and UPF3B (PubMed:11163187). Interacts with EST1A (PubMed:12554878). Interacts with SLBP (PubMed:16086026). Interacts (when hyperphosphorylated) with PNRC2 (PubMed:19150429). Interacts with AGO1 and AGO2 (PubMed:17932509). Interacts with GSPT2 (PubMed:18447585). Interacts with isoform 1 and isoform 5 of ADAR/ADAR1 (PubMed:18362360). Interacts with SMG7 (PubMed:15721257). Interacts with ZC3H12A; this interaction occurs in a mRNA translationally active- and termination-dependent manner and is essential for ZC3H12A-mediated degradation of target mRNAs (PubMed:26000482). Interacts with CPSF6 (PubMed:19864460). Interacts with MOV10; the interaction is direct and RNA-dependent (PubMed:24726324). Interacts with SHFL; the interaction increases in the presence of RNA (PubMed:27974568). Interacts with UPF2 and DDX4; interactions are mediated by TDRD6 (PubMed:25220460). Interacts with DHX34 and PABPC1/PABP1; the interactions are RNA-independent (PubMed:25220460). (Microbial infection) Interacts with human T-cell leukemia virus 1/HTLV-1 protein Tax; this interaction inhibits the host nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).
