Supplementary information

HCoV-OC43 Nucleoprotein also known as OC43 N protein is a major structural component of the HCoV-OC43 coronavirus. This nucleoprotein has a mass of approximately 50 kDa. It is expressed within the infected host cells mainly in the cytoplasm where it plays an integral role in viral replication and assembly. The HCoV-OC43 Nucleoprotein ensures encapsidation of the viral RNA genome forming the ribonucleocapsid which is critical for protecting the viral RNA and aiding in its functionality within the cell.
Biological function summary

The HCoV-OC43 Nucleoprotein participates in forming complexes with viral RNA and other viral proteins. These interactions facilitate the replication cycle of HCoV-OC43 by regulating RNA transcription and synthesis. Additionally it is known to induce host responses influencing cellular processes and immune evasion mechanisms. This interaction with the host's cellular machinery enables the virus to establish infection and maintain its replication efficiency.

Pathways

HCoV-OC43 Nucleoprotein participates in essential viral life cycle pathways specifically in the replication and transcription complex formation. This protein associates with other viral entities like the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase and matrix protein M. Together they ensure the synthesis of subgenomic mRNA and full-length genomic RNAn important for the successful production of new virions. Understanding these pathways helps clarify how coronaviruses like HCoV-OC43 propagate and sustain infection within host cells.

HCoV-OC43 Nucleoprotein associates with respiratory infections including common colds and occasionally severe lower respiratory tract diseases. It plays a role in modulating host immune responses that contribute to disease severity. It often connects with host protein interactions such as those involving the immune modulator protein interferon which can either bolster or subvert immune defenses. Studies of HCoV-OC43 and its Nucleoprotein provide insight into coronavirus pathogenicity and potential therapeutic targets for viral respiratory illnesses.

Target data

Packages the positive strand viral genome RNA into a helical ribonucleocapsid (RNP) and plays a fundamental role during virion assembly through its interactions with the viral genome and membrane protein M. Plays an important role in enhancing the efficiency of subgenomic viral RNA transcription as well as viral replication. Attenuates the stress granules formation by reducing host G3BP1 access to host mRNAs under stress conditions (PubMed : 36534661).
