Protein detail:


Protein name Envelope Protein
Uniprot protein ID P0DTC4
Protein length 75 amino acids
Protein description The SARS-CoV-2 envelope (E) protein is a small structural protein involved in many aspects of the viral life cycle. The E protein promotes the packaging and reproduction of the virus, and deletion of this protein weakens or even abolishes the virulence.

Title Differential mutation profile of SARS-CoV-2 proteins across deceased and asymptomatic patients
Author Rezwanuzzaman Laskar, Safdar Ali
Evidence A total of 372 variants were observed in 332 SARS-CoV-2 sequences with several variants being incident in multiple patients accounting for a total of 1596 incidences. The distribution of variants across different proteins of SARS-CoV-2 have been shown in Fig. 1 , Table 1 and Supplementary file 2.
