Plays a role in virus egress via lysosomal trafficking (PubMed:33157038, PubMed:33422265). Forms homotetrameric ion channels (viroporin) localized at endosomes and lysosomes, that may induce deacidification of lysosomes thereby allowing safe virion egress through lysosomal trafficking (By similarity) (PubMed:33157038, PubMed:33422265). Also blocks formation of autolysosomes through binding and sequestering host TMUB1/HOPS on late endosomes. This prevents fusion of autophagosomes with lysosomes, disrupting autophagy and facilitating virus egress (PubMed:33422265).By similarity2 Publications

<p>The checksum is a form of redundancy check that is calculated from the sequence. It is useful for tracking sequence updates.</p> <p>It should be noted that while, in theory, two different sequences could have the same checksum value, the likelihood that this would happen is extremely low.</p> <p>However UniProtKB may contain entries with identical sequences in case of multiple genes (paralogs).</p> <p>The checksum is computed as the sequence 64-bit Cyclic Redundancy Check value (CRC64) using the generator polynomial: x<sup>64</sup> + x<sup>4</sup> + x<sup>3</sup> + x + 1. The algorithm is described in the ISO 3309 standard. </p> <p class="publication">Press W.H., Flannery B.P., Teukolsky S.A. and Vetterling W.T.<br /> <strong>Cyclic redundancy and other checksums</strong><br /> <a href="http://www.nrbook.com/b/bookcpdf.php">Numerical recipes in C 2nd ed., pp896-902, Cambridge University Press (1993)</a>)</p> Checksum:i4688E6D477E031C4
