General annotation (Comments)

Function

Binds DNA and RNA. Is one of the most abundant viral proteins present in cells late in infection. Not necessary for virus viability. Component of the HSV-1 virion, with approximately 600 to 1000 copies per virion. Binds specifically to UL34 mRNA (in vitro) and seems to regulate the expression of that gene.

Subunit structure

Associates with RNA derived from the 60S ribosomal subunits. Seems to form large heterogeneous polymers of up to 200 identical subunits in the cytoplasm.

Subcellular location

Host nucleushost nucleolus. Host cytoplasm. Note: Following infection, it is released into the cell cytoplasm.

Domain

The first 40 amino acids of the N-terminal region is an effector domain necessary for the transactivation of HTLV-1 env gene expression, which may interact with cellular proteins.

The N-terminal tetrapeptide may be responsible for virion incorporation.

The C-terminal half, rich in Arg and Pro residues, seems to be responsible for the RNA-binding activity, and for the association with ribosomes and the localization to the nucleolus. This region may adopt a poly-L-proline II helix secondary structure.

Post-translational modification

May be phosphorylated on Ser residues by host kinases. Ref.5
