Ligands: ZN Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function [LMBD2_REOVD] Outer capsid protein involved in mRNA capping. Catalyzes the last 3 enzymatic activities for formation of the 5' cap structure on the viral plus-strand transcripts, namely the RNA guanylyltransferase, RNA-7N- and RNA-2'O-methyltransferase activities. [SIGM2_REOVD] Inner capsid (core) component. [LMBD1_REOVD] Inner capsid (core) component. Displays NTPase, RNA 5'-triphosphatase (RTPase) and RNA helicase activities and probably participates in transcription of the viral genome. Helicase activity might be involved in unwinding or reannealing dsRNA during RNA synthesis. RTPase enzymatic activity represents the first step in RNA capping, which yields a 5'-diphosphorylated plus-strand RNA. Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMed The reovirus core is an assembly with a relative molecular mass of 52 million that synthesizes, modifies and exports viral messenger RNA. Analysis of its structure by X-ray crystallography shows that there are alternative, specific and completely non-equivalent contacts made by several surfaces of two of its proteins; that the RNA capping and export apparatus is a hollow cylinder, which probably sequesters its substrate to ensure completion of the capping reactions; that the genomic double-stranded RNA is coiled into concentric layers within the particle; and that there is a protein shell that appears to be common to all groups of double-stranded RNA viruses.
