Protein detail:


Protein name Nucleocapsid Phosphoprotein
Uniprot protein ID P0DTC9
Protein length 419 amino acids
Protein description The Nucleocapsid Phosphoprotein has a modular organization which can be divided into intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) and conserved structural regions according to the sequence characteristics. The IDRs include three modules: N-arm, central Ser/Arg-rich flexible linker region (LKR), and C-tail, while the conserved structural regions including two modules: N-terminal domain (NTD) and C-terminal domain (CTD). In the primary structure, NTD and CTD are connected by LKR and are usually flanked by N-arm and C-tail. The nucleocapsid phosphoprotein is a structural protein that binds to, protects the viral RNA genome and is involved in packaging the RNA into virus particles. The N protein has been suggested as an antiviral drug target.

Evidence A total of 3,919 mutations were detected across the 2,731 Brazilian genomes and only 354 (12.96%) occurred in >5 sequences, 44 (1.61%) in > 50 genomes, and 38 (1.39%) in > 100 sequences (Fig. 2 , Table 1 ). Twenty-five (65.79%) of these 38 mutations were non-synonymous. Of these, 11 (44.0%) were in the spike protein, 5 (20.0%) in the nucleocapsid protein, and 5 (20.0%) in the ORF1ab polyprotein (Table 1).
