Function |
Subunit of the 26S proteasome which plays a role in ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis (PubMed:15117943). Component of the TREX-2 complex (transcription and export complex 2), composed of at least ENY2, GANP, PCID2, DSS1, and either centrin CETN2 or CETN3 (PubMed:22307388). The TREX-2 complex functions in docking export-competent ribonucleoprotein particles (mRNPs) to the nuclear entrance of the nuclear pore complex (nuclear basket). TREX-2 participates in mRNA export and accurate chromatin positioning in the nucleus by tethering genes to the nuclear periphery. Binds and stabilizes BRCA2 and is thus involved in the control of R-loop-associated DNA damage and thus transcription- associated genomic instability. R-loop accumulation increases in DSS1-depleted cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15117943, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22307388, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24896180}.
