Function
R1A_IBVM The papain-like proteinase (PL-PRO) is responsible for the cleavages located at the N-terminus of replicase polyprotein. Activity of PL-PRO is dependent on zinc (By similarity). The main proteinase 3CL-PRO is responsible for the majority of cleavages as it cleaves the C-terminus of replicase polyprotein at 11 sites. Recognizes substrates containing the core sequence [ILMVF]-Q-|-[SGACN]. Inhibited by the substrate-analog Cbz-Val-Asn-Ser-Thr-Leu-Gln-CMK. Also contains an ADP-ribose-1-phosphate (ADRP)-binding function (By similarity). The peptide p16 might be involved in the EGF signaling pathway (By similarity). Nsp7-nsp8 hexadecamer may possibly confer processivity to the polymerase, maybe by binding to dsRNA or by producing primers utilized by the latter (By similarity). Nsp9 is a ssRNA-binding protein (By similarity).
