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 We identified 115 mutations with NRFp>0.03 (Fig. S1); this means that those mutations are estimated to be present in more than 3% of the COVID-19 cases globally. Considering that the sum of the reported cases from the 714 country-month combinations analyzed was 120,008,410 cases, an NRFp of more than 0.03 means that those mutations were present in more than 3,600,252 global COVID-19 cases.
