NSP1 (rotavirus)

NSP1, the product of rotavirus gene 5, is an nonstructural RNA-binding protein that contains a cysteine-rich region and is a component of early replication intermediates. RNA-folding predictions suggest that this region of the NSP1 mRNA can interact with itself, producing a stem-loop structure similar to that found near the 5'-terminus of the NSP1 mRNA.[1]

The carboxyl-half of the rotavirus nonstructural protein NSP1 is not required for virus replication.[2]

NSP1 could play a role in host range restriction.[3]

The cysteine-rich region of NSP1 is not considered essential for genome segment reassortment with heterologous virus.[4]

NSP1 interacts with IRF3 in the infected cell. NSP1 is an antagonist of the IFN-signaling pathway.[5]

Interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3) is a key transcription factor involved in the induction of interferon (IFN) in response to viral infection. NSP1 binds to and targets IRF3 for proteasome degradation early post-infection. IRF3 degradation is dependent on the presence of NSP1 and the integrity of the N-terminal zinc-binding domain, coupled with the regulated stability of IRF3 and NSP1 by the proteasome, collectively support the hypothesis that NSP1 is an E3 ubiquitin ligase.[6]

NSP1 could mediates the degradation of IRF3, IRF5, and IRF7 by recognizing a common element of IRF proteins, thereby allowing NSP1 to act as a broad-spectrum antagonist of IRF function.[7]

NSP1 also inhibits activation of NFkappaB[8]

NSP1 inhibits cellular apoptosis by directly interacting p85 subunit of PI3K and thus activating PI3K/Akt survival pathway during early stages of rotavirus infection.[9][10]
