Protein detail:
| Protein name | ORF4a protein |
| Uniprot protein ID | K9N4V0 |
| Protein length | 109 amino acids |
| Protein description | ORF4a protein is one of the non-structural protein of MERS-CoV. ORF4a protein plays a role in the inhibition of host innate response. Suppresses host PACT-induced activation of DDX58 and MDA5 and thereby circumvents the production of type I inteferons. Prevents also the activation of host NF-kappaB. |
