Template:STRUCTURE 4ld8

Crystal Structure of Dimeric Sudan Virus VP40

Function

[VP40_EBOSU] Promotes virus assembly and budding by interacting with host proteins of the multivesicular body pathway. May facilitate virus budding by interacting with the nucleocapsid and the plasma membrane. Specific interactions with membrane-associated GP and VP24 during the budding process may also occur. The hexamer form seems to be involved in budding. The octamer form binds RNA, and may play a role in genome replication (By similarity).

About this Structure
