Protein detail:


Protein name ORF1ab polyprotein
Uniprot protein ID P0DTC1
Protein length 7096 amino acids
Protein description ORF1ab, the largest gene, contains overlapping open reading frames that encode polyproteins PP1ab and PP1a. The polyproteins are cleaved to yield 16 nonstructural proteins, NSP1-16. Production of the longer (PP1ab) or shorter protein (PP1a) depends on a -1 ribosomal frameshifting event. The proteins, based on similarity to other coronaviruses, include the papain-like proteinase protein (NSP3), 3C-like proteinase (NSP5), RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (NSP12, RdRp), helicase (NSP13, HEL), endoRNAse (NSP15), 2'-O-Ribose-Methyltransferase (NSP16) and other nonstructural proteins. SARS-CoV-2 nonstructural proteins are responsible for viral transcription, replication, proteolytic processing, suppression of host immune responses and suppression of host gene expression. The RNA-dependent RNA polymerase is a target of antiviral therapies.

Title Identification of novel mutations in SARS-CoV-2 isolates from Turkey
Author Shazia Rehman, Tariq Mahmood, Ejaz Aziz, Riffat Batool
Evidence Based on mutation analysis, 59 out of 80 isolates from Turkey contained a signature 23,403A-G (D614G) mutation in the spike glycoprotein (S), which is clearly indicative of a very frequent mutation (73%). Most samples with the D614G mutation were strongly associated with two other mutations (3037 C-T and 14,408C-T) in ORF1ab region (Table1).
