TEV Protease, His
Domain
Helper component proteinase
The N-terminus is involved in interaction with stylets. The central part is involved in interaction with virions and the C-terminus is involved in cell-to cell movement of the virus.
Function
Helper component proteinase
Required for aphid transmission and also has proteolytic activity. Only cleaves a Gly-Gly dipeptide at its own C-terminus (PubMed:2656254). Interacts with virions and aphid stylets (PubMed:9880030). Acts as a suppressor of RNA-mediated gene silencing, also known as post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS), a mechanism of plant viral defense that limits the accumulation of viral RNAs (PubMed:11414807). May have RNA-binding activity.
Cytoplasmic inclusion protein
Has helicase activity. It may be involved in replication.
6 kDa protein 1
Indispensable for virus replication (By similarity). Reduces the abundance of host transcripts related to jasmonic acid biosynthesis therefore altering the host defenses (By similarity). In order to increase its own stability, decreases host protein degradation pathways (By similarity).
6 kDa protein 2
Indispensable for virus replication.
Viral genome-linked protein
Mediates the cap-independent, EIF4E-dependent translation of viral genomic RNAs (Probable). Binds to the cap-binding site of host EIF4E and thus interferes with the host EIF4E-dependent mRNA export and translation (By similarity). VPg-RNA directly binds EIF4E and is a template for transcription (By similarity). Also forms trimeric complexes with EIF4E-EIF4G, which are templates for translation (By similarity).
Nuclear inclusion protein A
Has RNA-binding and proteolytic activities.
Nuclear inclusion protein B
An RNA-dependent RNA polymerase that plays an essential role in the virus replication.
Capsid protein
Involved in aphid transmission, cell-to-cell and systemis movement, encapsidation of the viral RNA and in the regulation of viral RNA amplification.
Post-translational modifications
Viral genome-linked protein
VPg is uridylylated by the polymerase and is covalently attached to the 5'-end of the genomic RNA. This uridylylated form acts as a nucleotide-peptide primer for the polymerase (By similarity).
Genome polyprotein
Potyviral RNA is expressed as two polyproteins which undergo post-translational proteolytic processing. Genome polyprotein is processed by NIa-pro, P1 and HC-pro proteinases resulting in the production of at least ten individual proteins. P3N-PIPO polyprotein is cleaved by P1 and HC-pro proteinases resulting in the production of three individual proteins. The P1 proteinase and the HC-pro cleave only their respective C-termini autocatalytically. 6K1 is essential for proper proteolytic separation of P3 from CI (By similarity).
Sequence Similarities
Belongs to the potyviridae genome polyprotein family.
