Protein detail:


Protein name Fusion protein
Uniprot protein ID P03420
Protein length 574 amino acids
Protein description F protein is a class I fusion protein composed of 574 amino acids (AA). With a molecular weight of a 50 kDa C-terminal fragment F1 and a 20 kDa N-terminal fragment F2, the protein acquires a trimer of heterodimers. At AA positions 109 and 136, two furin cleavages take place. This feature releases a glycopeptide and thus reveals the hydrophobic site at F1 fragment. F1 and F2 are linked by a cysteine-rich region at two positions: between AA70 and AA212, and between AA37 and AA439. Other Frelated features involve N-glycosylation in F1 at AA position 500, and in F2 at AA positions 27 and 70. F protein is highly conserved, with only 25 AA differences between RSV subtypes A and B.

Title Mechanism of Cross-Resistance to Fusion Inhibitors Conferred by the K394R Mutation in Respiratory Syncytial Virus Fusion Protein
Author Wei Tang,Yueyue Li,Qiaoyun Song,Ziqin Wang,Manmei Li
Evidence We found that fusion activity and syncytia numbers in K394R-transfected cells were increased compared to those in Fwt-transfected cells (Fig. 5A and B), indicating that the K394R mutation enhanced the membrane fusion activity of F protein, whereas the V20
