Abstract Nucleo-cytoplasmic transport of RNA is one of many cellular pathways whose illumination has progressed hand in hand with understanding of retroviral mechanisms. A recent paper in Cell reports the involvement of an RNA helicase in the pathway by which HIV exports partially spliced and unspliced RNA out of the nucleus. This suggests the ubiquity of RNA helicases in RNA export from the nucleus and has novel mechanistic implications. HIV must export to the cytoplasm not only full length genomic and structural gene-encoding RNA species but also partially and fully spliced RNAs which code for a variety of overlapping structural and accessory genes. Whereas the fully spliced HIV RNA species readily exit the nucleus and undergo translation the partially spliced and unspliced species require the interaction of the HIV-1 Rev protein with the cis-acting viral RRE Rev responsive element for expression. Simpler retroviruses such as the type-D Mason-Pfizer monkey virus MPMV solve a similar problem by encoding a cis-acting constitutively active CTE constitutive transporter element in the 3 UTR of the viral genome which uses a distinct pathway 1 2 . Of less clear significance is the existence of CRM-1 dependent .
