Structural highlights
FunctionPOLG_AIVA8 Required for viral RNA replication and viral RNA encapsidation (PubMed:14512530). Does not have any proteolytic activity (PubMed:14512530).[1] Forms an icosahedral capsid of pseudo T=3 symmetry with capsid proteins VP0 and VP3 (PubMed:27681122, PubMed:27595320). Together they form an icosahedral capsid composed of 60 copies of each VP0, VP1, and VP3 (PubMed:27681122, PubMed:27595320). All the three latter proteins contain a beta-sheet structure called beta-barrel jelly roll (PubMed:27595320).[2] [3] Forms an icosahedral capsid of pseudo T=3 symmetry with capsid proteins VP1 and VP3 (PubMed:27681122, PubMed:27595320).

All the three latter proteins contain a beta-sheet structure called beta-barrel jelly roll (PubMed:27595320).[6] [7] Required for viral RNA replication (PubMed:18653460). Does not have any proteolytic activity (PubMed:18653460).[8] Affects membrane integrity and causes an increase in membrane permeability. Induces and associates with structural rearrangements of intracellular membranes. Displays RNA-binding, nucleotide binding and NTPase activities. May play a role in virion morphogenesis and viral RNA encapsidation by interacting with the capsid protein VP3.[UniProtKB:P03300] Serves as membrane anchor via its hydrophobic domain. Plays an essential role in viral RNA replication by recruiting PI4KB at the viral replication sites, thereby allowing the formation of the rearranged membranous structures where viral replication takes place (PubMed:22124328, PubMed:24672044, PubMed:27989622, PubMed:30755512, PubMed:22258260). Stimulates the enzymatic activity of PI4KB, this activation is sensitized by ACBD3 (PubMed:24672044, PubMed:27989622).[9] [10] [11] [12] [13] Forms a primer, VPg-pU, which is utilized by the polymerase for the initiation of RNA chains.[UniProtKB:P03304] Cysteine protease that generates mature viral proteins from the precursor polyprotein (By similarity). In addition to its proteolytic activity, it binds to viral RNA, and thus influences viral genome replication. RNA and substrate cooperatively bind to the protease (By similarity).[UniProtKB:P03304][UniProtKB:P12296] Replicates the genomic and antigenomic RNAs by recognizing replications specific signals (By similarity). Performs VPg uridylylation (By similarity).[UniProtKB:P12296] Publication Abstract from PubMedHemihedral twinning is a crystal-growth anomaly in which a specimen is composed of two crystal domains that coincide with each other in three dimensions. However, the orientations of the crystal lattices in the two domains differ in a specific way. In diffraction data collected from hemihedrally twinned crystals, each observed intensity contains contributions from both of the domains. With perfect hemihedral twinning, the two domains have the same volumes and the observed intensities do not contain sufficient information to detwin the data. Here, the use of molecular replacement and of noncrystallographic symmetry (NCS) averaging to detwin a 2.1 A resolution data set for Aichi virus 1 affected by perfect hemihedral twinning is described. The NCS averaging enabled the correction of errors in the detwinning introduced by the differences between the molecular-replacement model and the crystallized structure. The procedure permitted the structure to be determined from a molecular-replacement model that had 16% sequence identity and a 1.6 A r.m.s.d. for C(alpha) atoms in comparison to the crystallized structure. The same approach could be used to solve other data sets affected by perfect hemihedral twinning from crystals with NCS. The use of noncrystallographic symmetry averaging to solve structures from data affected by perfect hemihedral twinning.,Sabin C, Plevka P Acta Crystallogr F Struct Biol Commun. 2016 Mar 1;72(Pt 3):188-97. doi:, 10.1107/S2053230X16000923.
