TPR

This gene encodes a large coiled-coil protein that forms intranuclear filaments attached to the inner surface of nuclear pore complexes (NPCs). The protein directly interacts with several components of the NPC. It is required for the nuclear export of mRNAs and some proteins. Oncogenic fusions of the 5' end of this gene with several different kinase genes occur in some neoplasias. [provided by RefSeq]

translocated promoter region (to activated MET oncogene)

Component of the nuclear pore complex (NPC), a complex required for the trafficking across the nuclear envelope. Functions as a scaffolding element in the nuclear phase of the NPC essential for normal nucleocytoplasmic transport of proteins and mRNAs, plays a role in the establishment of nuclear-peripheral chromatin compartmentalization in interphase, and in the mitotic spindle checkpoint signaling during mitosis. Involved in the quality control and retention of unspliced mRNAs in the nucleus; in association with NUP153, regulates the nuclear export of unspliced mRNA species bearing constitutive transport element (CTE) in a NXF1- and KHDRBS1-independent manner. Negatively regulates both the association of CTE-containing mRNA with large polyribosomes and translation initiation. Does not play any role in Rev response element (RRE)-mediated export of unspliced mRNAs. Implicated in nuclear export of mRNAs transcribed from heat shock gene promoters; associates both with chromatin in the HSP70 promoter and with mRNAs transcribed from this promoter under stress-induced conditions. Modulates the nucleocytoplasmic transport of activated MAPK1/ERK2 and huntingtin/HTT and may serve as a docking site for the XPO1/CRM1-mediated nuclear export complex. According to some authors, plays a limited role in the regulation of nuclear protein export (PubMed:22253824 and PubMed:11952838).
Also plays a role as a structural and functional element of the perinuclear chromatin distribution; involved in the formation and/or maintenance of NPC-associated perinuclear heterochromatin exclusion zones (HEZs). Finally, acts as a spatial regulator of the spindle-assembly checkpoint (SAC) response ensuring a timely and effective recruitment of spindle checkpoint proteins like MAD1L1 and MAD2L1 to unattached kinetochore during the metaphase-anaphase transition before chromosome congression. Its N-terminus is involved in activation of oncogenic kinases.

Detected as discrete intranuclear foci with IFI204 (By similarity).
In interphase, localizes to the nucleoplasmic side of the nuclear pore complex (NPC) core structure, forming a fibrous structure called the nuclear basket. Detected exclusively to the cytoplasmic margin of NPC (PubMed:7798308).
Docking to the inner nucleoplasmic side of the NPC is mediated through binding to nucleoporins. Anchored by NUP153 to the NPC. The assembly of the NPC is a stepwise process in which Trp-containing peripheral structures assemble after other components, including p62. Detected as filaments that emanate from the nuclear basket of the NPC and extend to the nucleolus to delineate a chromatin-free network extending from the nuclear envelope to the perinucleolar region. Detected in diffuse and discrete spheroidal intranuclear foci. Nucleocytoplasmic shuttling protein imported into the nucleus in a XPO1/CRM1- and Importin alpha/Importin beta receptor-dependent manner. Remains localized to the nuclear membrane after poliovirus (PV) infection. During mitosis, remains associated with the nuclear envelope until prometaphase. Associated with the mitotic spindle from late prometaphase until anaphase. Reorganized during mitosis in a viscous and dynamic nuclear-derived spindle matrix that embeds the microtubule spindle apparatus from pole to pole in a microtubule-independent manner. Recruited to the reforming nuclear envelope during telophase and cytokinesis. Detected at kinetochores during prometaphase (PubMed:18981471).
Colocalizes with MAD2L1 in the spindle matrix but not at kinetochore (PubMed:19273613).
Colocalizes with dynein, dynactin, tubulin at kinetochore during the metaphase-anaphase transition. Colocalizes with DYNLL1 at the mitotic spindle.

A chromosomal aberration involving TPR has been found in papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTCs). Intrachromosomal rearrangement that links the 5'-end of the TPR gene to the protein kinase domain of NTRK1 forms the fusion protein TRK-T1. TRK-T1 is a 55 kDa protein reacting with antibodies against the carboxy terminus of the NTRK1 protein.
Involved in tumorigenic rearrangements with the MET.

Phosphorylated. Phosphorylation occurs on serine and threonine residues (comprised in the C-terminal region) by MAPK1/ERK2 and stabilizes the interaction between these two proteins.
Proteolytically degraded after poliovirus (PV) infection; degradation is restricted to its unfolded C-terminal tail domain whereas its coiled-coil domain containing NCP- and NUP153-binding domains withstand degradation.
