motifs/domains
  • a N-terminal leucine zipper motif, N-terminal transmembrane helix, amphipathic alpha-helix that is responsible for ER localization (
  • a domain associated with iron-sulfur cluster coordination
  • a middle region carrying a a CX(3)CX(2)C motif, which is conserved in the radical S-adenosyl-methionine (SAM) enzyme family
  • a highly conserved C-terminus

    basic FUNCTION
  • radical SAM enzyme activity may play a key role in the broad antiviral actions of viperin
  • is the major effector underlying the ability of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) to regulate cellular lipid metabolism
  • impaired respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) transmission by inhibiting virus filament formation, providing a basis for its anti-virus activity in RSV-infected cells
  • is an interferon-stimulated antiviral protein
  • possesses antiviral properties against a broad range of enveloped viruses
  • is antivirally active against many different viruses from different families and has been shown to inhibit several flaviviruses
  • interferon-inducible and evolutionary conserved protein that participates in the cell's innate immune response against a number of viruses
  • antiviral protein viperin controls chondrogenic differentiation by influencing secretion of soluble proteins
