Mutation of CD2AP and SH3KBP1 binding motif in alphavirus nsP3 hypervariable domain results in attenuated virus [PDF]
Infection by Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) of the Old World alphaviruses (family Togaviridae) in humans can cause arthritis and arthralgia. The virus encodes four non-structural proteins (nsP) (nsP1, nsp2, nsP3 and nsP4) that act as subunits of the virus ...

Hepatitis C virus nonstructural protein NS3 unfolds viral G-quadruplex RNA structures
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major cause of liver-related diseases and hepatocellular carcinoma. The helicase domain of one of the nonstructural proteins of HCV, NS3 (nonstructural protein 3), is essential for viral replication; however, its specific biological role is still under investigation.

Mitophagy induced by classical swine fever virus nonstructural protein 5A promotes viral replication
The classical swine fever virus (CSFV) is one of the most harmful pathogens of swine and causes considerable economic loss. Mitophagy is a selective form of autophagy that degrades damaged mitochondria by combining with lysosomes. Previous studies have been reported that CSFV infection can induce mitophagy, but which effector protein is responsible for

Aquareovirus NS80 Initiates Efficient Viral Replication by Retaining Core Proteins within Replication-Associated Viral Inclusion Bodies. [PDF]
Viral inclusion bodies (VIBs) are specific intracellular compartments for reoviruses replication and assembly. Aquareovirus nonstructural protein NS80 has been identified to be the major constituent for forming globular VIBs in our previous study.
