FAMILY
  • oligoademylate synthase family
  • 2-5A synthetase family essential for innate immune response against viral infection

    basic FUNCTION
  • mediating resistance to virus infection, control of cell growth, differentiation and apoptosis
  • plays a central role in the cellular innate antiviral response
  • is one of the major interferon-inducible proteins and a critical component of the host defense system against viral infection
  • potential role of OAS1 polymorphisms in respiratory infection
  • recognizes double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) using a previously uncharacterized protein/RNA interface that forms via a conformational change induced by binding of dsRNA
  • CELLULAR PROCESS cell life, differentiation
    cell life, cell death/apoptosis

    Susceptibility
  • host susceptibility to viral infection
  • to multiple sclerosis (MS)
  • to prostate cancer
  • to Sjögren's syndrome (SS)
  • Variant & Polymorphism SNP , other
  • influencing host susceptibility to viral infection
  • association between rs10774671 and MS
  • significant association was observed between the rs2660 genotype (A/G) and prostate cancer
  • is a risk locus for SS and support a potential role for defective viral clearance due to altered IFN response as a genetic pathophysiological basis of this complex autoimmune disease
