Supplementary information

Influenza A Polymerase basic protein 2 also known as PB2 protein plays an important mechanical role in the viral RNA polymerase complex which is necessary for viral replication. This protein has a molecular mass of approximately 87 kDa. PB2 is expressed within infected host cells and is a component of the influenza A virus polymerase complex along with PA and PB1 proteins. The PB2 target is essential for the transcription and replication phase in the viral lifecycle allowing the virus to hijack the host cell machinery for viral propagation.
Biological function summary

PB2 protein is part of the heterotrimeric RNA polymerase complex which is critical for the influenza virus's ability to replicate. The polymerase complex includes PA PB1 and PB2 proteins where PB2 protein plays a role in cap-snatching a mechanism to steal host mRNA caps for viral mRNA synthesis. This enables the influenza virus to synthesize its own proteins in the host cytoplasm facilitating efficient viral replication and protein expression.

Pathways

The PB2 protein functions prominently within the viral replication cycle of the influenza A virus. It is intricately linked with the host's mRNA processing pathways as it engages in the cap-snatching mechanism necessary for viral mRNA transcription. PB2 protein works closely with PB1 in the replication pathway where PB1 acts as the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase in conjunction with activities of PB2.

PB2 protein plays a significant role in the pathogenicity of influenza A virus infections in humans and animals. Its interactions are pivotal for the adaptation and virulence of the influenza virus leading to significant morbidity during outbreaks. Mutations in the PB2 gene can relate to species adaptation and increased virulence and the protein's function is important for the virus to overcome host defense mechanisms frequently. PB2 interacts with host proteins to moderate host immune responses making it a target for antiviral drug development and treatment strategies.

Target data

Plays an essential role in transcription initiation and cap-stealing mechanism, in which cellular capped pre-mRNAs are used to generate primers for viral transcription. Recognizes and binds the 7-methylguanosine-containing cap of the target pre-RNA which is subsequently cleaved after 10-13 nucleotides by the viral protein PA. Plays a role in the initiation of the viral genome replication and modulates the activity of the ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex. In addition, participates in the inhibition of type I interferon induction through interaction with and inhibition of the host mitochondrial antiviral signaling protein MAVS.
