Protein Domain : Non-structural protein 3c (NS3c), bat coronavirus HKU4-like IPR044319

Type  Family
Description  This entry represents the accessory protein 4b, ORF4b (also called NS3c protein) of Tylonycteris bat coronavirus HKU4 and related bat coronaviruses including Tylonycteris pachypus bat coronavirus HKU4-related.ORF4b/NS3c plays a role in the inhibition of host innate immunity by inhibiting the interaction between host IkappaB kinase epsilon (IKBKE or IKKE) and mitochondrial antiviral-signalling protein (MAVS). In turn, this inhibition prevents the production of host interferon beta. Additionally, it may also interfere with host antiviral response within the nucleus. ORF4b/NS3c proteins in this subgroup are similar to the MERS-CoV ORF4b (also known as MERS-CoV 4b) which has been shown to interfere with the NF-kappaB-dependent innate immune response during infection, as well as antagonizing the early antiviral alpha/beta interferon (IFN-alpha/beta) response, which may significantly contribute to MERS-CoV pathogenesis [ , , , ].
