'''Nucleoporin GLE1''' is a [[protein]] that in humans is encoded by the ''GLE1'' [[gene]] on [[Chromosome 9 (human)|chromosome 9]].<ref name="pmid9618489">{{cite journal | vauthors = Watkins JL, Murphy R, Emtage JL, Wente SR | title = The human homologue of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Gle1p is required for poly(A)+ RNA export | journal = Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A | volume = 95 | issue = 12 | pages = 6779–84 | date = Jul 1998 | pmid = 9618489 | pmc = 22633 | doi = 10.1073/pnas.95.12.6779 }}</ref><ref name="pmid18204449">{{cite journal | vauthors = Nousiainen HO, Kestilä M, Pakkasjärvi N, Honkala H, Kuure S, Tallila J, Vuopala K, Ignatius J, Herva R, Peltonen L | title = Mutations in mRNA export mediator GLE1 result in a fetal motoneuron disease | journal = Nat Genet | volume = 40 | issue = 2 | pages = 155–7 | date = Jan 2008 | pmid = 18204449 | pmc = 2684619 | doi = 10.1038/ng.2007.65 }}</ref><ref name="entrez">{{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: GLE1L GLE1 RNA export mediator-like (yeast)| url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=2733| accessdate = }}</ref>

== Function ==

This gene encodes a predicted 75-kDa polypeptide with high sequence and structure homology to yeast Gle1p, which is nuclear protein with a leucine-rich nuclear export sequence essential for poly(A)+RNA export. Inhibition of human GLE1L by microinjection of antibodies against GLE1L in HeLa cells resulted in inhibition of poly(A)+RNA export. Immunoflourescence studies show that GLE1L is localized at the nuclear pore complexes. This localization suggests that GLE1L may act at a terminal step in the export of mature RNA messages to the cytoplasm. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.<ref name="entrez" />

== Clinical significance ==

A genome-wide screening and linkage analysis assigned the disease locus of [[lethal congenital contracture syndrome]], one of 40 [[Finnish heritage disease]]s, to a defined region of 9q34, where the GLE1 gene is located.<ref name="makela">{{cite journal | vauthors = Mäkelä-Bengs P, Järvinen N, Vuopala K, Suomalainen A, Palotie A, Peltonen L | title = The assignment the lethal congenital contracture syndrome (LCCS) locus to chromosome 9q33-34 | journal = Am.
