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 Comprehensive analysis of genomic diversity of SARS-CoV-2 in different geographic regions of India: an endeavour to classify Indian SARS-CoV-2 strains on the basis of co-existing mutations
Author Rakesh Sarkar, Suvrotoa Mitra, Pritam Chandra, Priyanka Saha, Anindita Banerjee
Evidence To identify mutations in the SARS-CoV-2 genome accumulating through natural selection, we performed whole-genome sequence analysis of 837 Indian SARS-CoV-2 strains that had been deposited in the GISAID repository (Supplementary Fig. 1). A total of 33 different mutations were found in the 837 Indian isolates in comparison to the prototype strain Wuhan-Hu-1 (only those that were found in at least five isolates were considered).
