2mm4
From Proteopedia
Structure of a Conserved Golgi Complex-targeting Signal in Coronavirus Envelope Proteins
Function
[VEMP_CVHSA] Component of the viral envelope that plays a central role in virus morphogenesis and assembly. It is sufficient to form virus-like particles. Seems to be important for creating the membrane curvature needed to acquire the rounded, stable and infectious particle phenotype. Acts as a viroporin, inducing the formation of hydrophilic pores in cellular membranes. Also induces apoptosis (By similarity).
About this Structure
2mm4 is a 1 chain structure. Full experimental information is available from OCA.
