AGFG1, HRB, RAB, RIP, Arf-GAP domain and FG repeat-containing protein 1, HIV-1 Rev-binding protein, Nucleoporin-like protein RIP, Rev-interacting protein, Rev/Rex activation domain-binding protein

The protein encoded by this gene is related to nucleoporins, a class of proteins that mediate nucleocytoplasmic transport. The encoded protein binds the activation domain of the human immunodeficiency virus Rev protein when Rev is assembled onto its RNA target, and is required for the nuclear export of Rev-directed RNAs. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
