Function

function

Plays a role in the inhibition of host immune response within the nucleus. Interacts with cellular nucleosomes and immobilizes the host immune danger signal HMGB1 on chromatin. In turn, prevents HMGB1 release out of the cell and thus decreases inflammation. Also plays a role in the wrapping and condensation of the viral DNA. May also promote viral genome import into the nucleus.

Miscellaneous

All late proteins expressed from the major late promoter are produced by alternative splicing and alternative polyadenylation of the same gene giving rise to non-overlapping ORFs. A leader sequence is present in the N-terminus of all these mRNAs and is recognized by the viral shutoff protein to provide expression although conventional translation via ribosome scanning from the cap has been shut off in the host cell.

Expressed in the late phase of the viral replicative cycle.

Keywords

Interaction

Subunit

Interacts with the core-capsid bridging protein; this interaction bridges the virus core to the capsid. Interacts with host NPM1; this interaction might play a role in placing the pre-histone-like nucleoprotein on the viral DNA or regulating viral gene expression. Interacts with host HMGB1; this interaction inhibits host immune response.
