Protein Domain : Polyomavirus agnoprotein IPR002643

Type  Family
Description  This family consists of the DNA-binding protein or agnoprotein from various polyomaviruses. This protein is highly basic and can bind single stranded and double stranded DNA [ ]. Mutations in the agnoprotein produce smaller viral plaques, hence its function is not essential for growth in tissue culture cells but something has slowed in the normal replication cycle []. There is also evidence suggesting that the agnogene and agnoprotein act as regulators of structural protein synthesis [].
