Of the 16 non-structural proteins (Nsps) encoded by SARS CoV-2, Nsp3 is the largest and plays important roles in the viral life cycle. Being a large, multidomain, transmembrane protein, Nsp3 has been the most challenging Nsp to characterize.

Scalable Inhibitors of the Nsp3–Nsp4 Coupling in SARS-CoV-2
The human Betacoronavirus SARS-CoV-2 is a novel pathogen claiming millions of lives and causing a global pandemic that has disrupted international healthcare systems, economies, and communities. The virus is fast mutating and presenting more infectious but less lethal versions. Currently, some small-molecule therapeutics have received FDA emergency use

Predicted binding interface between coronavirus nsp3 and nsp4 [PDF]
AbstractDouble membrane vesicles (DMVs) in coronavirus-infected cells feature pores that span both membranes. DMV pores were observed to have six-fold symmetry and include the nsp3 protein. Co-expression of SARS-CoV nsp3 and nsp4 induces DMV formation, and elements of nsp3 and nsp4 have been identified that are essential for membrane disruption.

Crystal structure of the CoV-Y domain of SARS-CoV-2 nonstructural protein 3
Replication of the coronavirus genome starts with the formation of viral RNA-containing double-membrane vesicles (DMV) following viral entry into the host cell.

The nsp3 Macrodomain Promotes Virulence in Mice with Coronavirus-Induced Encephalitis [PDF]
ABSTRACT All coronaviruses encode a macrodomain containing ADP-ribose-1″-phosphatase (ADRP) activity within the N terminus of nonstructural protein 3 (nsp3). Previous work showed that mouse hepatitis virus strain A59 (MHV-A59) with a mutated catalytic site (N1348A) replicated similarly to wild-type virus but was unable to cause ...

Sequestration of G3BP coupled with efficient translation inhibits stress granules in Semliki Forest virus infection [PDF]
Dynamic, mRNA-containing stress granules (SGs) form in the cytoplasm of cells under environmental stresses, including viral infection. Many viruses appear to employ mechanisms to disrupt the formation of SGs on their mRNAs, suggesting that they represent

Rotavirus Nonstructural Protein NSP3 Is Not Required for Viral Protein Synthesis [PDF]
ABSTRACT Initiation is the rate-limiting step in protein synthesis and therefore an important target for regulation. For the initiation of translation of most cellular mRNAs, the cap structure at the 5′ end is bound by the translation factor eukaryotic initiation factor 4E (eIF4E), while the poly(A) tail, at the 3′ end, is recognized by the ...

ZAP's stress granule localization is correlated with its antiviral activity and induced by virus replication. [PDF]
Cellular antiviral programs encode molecules capable of targeting multiple steps in the virus lifecycle. Zinc-finger antiviral protein (ZAP) is a central and general regulator of antiviral activity that targets pathogen mRNA stability and translation ...

Rotavirus Protein NSP3 Shuts Off Host Cell Protein Synthesis
A recombinant vaccinia virus encoding rotavirus protein NSP3 driven by an internal ribosome entry site (IRES) from the encephalomyocarditis (EMC) virus was able to abate protein synthesis in BSC1 cells by 25-fold, with as much as 30% of the remaining protein synthesis being NSP3.
