The constitutive transport element (CTE) of the simian type D retroviruses overcomes nuclear retention and allows nuclear export of unspliced viral RNAs by recruiting TAP, a host factor which is thought to be required for export of cellular mRNAs. In this report, we show that the first 372 amino acid residues of TAP, comprising a stretch of leucine-rich repeats, are both necessary and sufficient for binding to the CTE RNA and promoting its export to the cytoplasm. Moreover, like the full-length protein, this domain migrates to the cytoplasm upon nuclear co-injection with the CTE RNA. Together, these results indicate that the CTE-binding domain includes the signals for nuclear export. We also describe a derivative of TAP that bears a triple amino acid substitution within the CTE-binding domain and substantially reduces the export of mRNAs from the nucleus. This provides further evidence for a role for TAP in this process. Thus, the CTE-binding domain of TAP defines a novel RNA-binding motif which has dual functions, both recognizing the CTE RNA and interacting with other components of the nuclear transport machinery.
