Biological function summary
Nucleoprotein acts as an essential component in the viral lifecycle by aiding in the protection and packaging of viral RNA. It typically associates with other viral proteins to form a ribonucleoprotein complex which is necessary for viral replication and transcription. This complex ensures the encapsidation of the viral genome protecting it from nucleases and allowing proper assembly into new virions. Additionally nucleoprotein has been found to modulate host immune responses potentially aiding viral evasion of host defense mechanisms.
Pathways
Nucleoprotein participates in viral replication and transcription pathways particularly within the context of the host-virus interaction. It is associated with the replication machinery of the virus where it interacts with the polymerase complex which includes proteins such as polymerase basic 1 (PB1) and polymerase basic 2 (PB2). This interaction facilitates the synthesis of complementary RNA strands necessary for viral propagation and the production of viral proteins.

General info
Function
Encapsidates the genome, protecting it from nucleases. The encapsidated genomic RNA is termed the nucleocapsid (NC). Serves as template for viral transcription and replication. The increased presence of protein N in host cell does not seem to trigger the switch from transcription to replication as observed in other negative strain RNA viruses. Through the interaction with host IKBKE, strongly inhibits the phosphorylation and nuclear translocation of host IRF3, a protein involved in interferon activation pathway, leading to the inhibition of interferon-beta and IRF3-dependent promoters activation. Encodes also a functional 3'-5' exoribonuclease that degrades preferentially dsRNA substrates and thereby participates in the suppression of interferon induction.
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the arenaviridae nucleocapsid protein family.
