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 Detection of R.1 lineage severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) with spike protein W152L/E484K/G769V mutations in Japan
Author Yosuke Hirotsu,Masao Omata
Evidence Our sequencing analysis of the SARS-CoV-2 isolates from the three family members identified the same 21 mutations in each isolate; these comprised 13 missense, six synonymous, and two intergenic variants. Among the missense mutations, four were in the spike protein (W152L, E484K, D614G, and G769V), four were in ORF1ab (T4692I, N6301S, L6337M, and I6525T), one was in the membrane protein (F28L), and four were in the nucleocapsid protein (S187L, R203K, G204R, and Q418H).
