Popis: | As a major protein of cypovirus capsid shell,VP5 performs as the clamp protein to stabilize the capsid shell structure (Yu et al.,2008).And as a part of viral RNA (vRNA) replication machinery,VP5 has been found to possess an ATP-independent RNA chaperoning activity (Yang et al.,2014).Here,we report that VP5 also has the nucleoside triphosphatase (NTPase) activity,which can hydrolyze all kinds of NTPs and dNTPs.Thus,our finding reveals that VP5 is a multifunctional protein that may be involved in diverse processes during cypoviral life cycle. |
