Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
additional information protease domain of the NS3 protein greatly enhances both the direct and functional binding of RNA to NS3. Electrostatics play an important role in this process, protease domain is the most positively charged region of the NS3 protein and it provides an electrostatic potential that exceeds even that of the positively charged ATPase site on the protein. Protease domain is required for RNA unwinding by NS3 Hepacivirus C

Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine NS3 protease domain is essential for the process of viral RNA replication and, given its electrostatic contribution to RNA binding, it may also assist in packaging of the viral RNA Hepacivirus C

Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
into vectors pET15b and pET-SUMO Hepacivirus C

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information protease deletion constructs of the helicase domain NS3hel(deltaN166) and NS3hel(deltaN188), which are missing 166 and 188 amino acids, respectively, from the N-terminus of the NS3 protein. NS3hel(deltaN188) binds TS34 RNA, RNA binding by NS3hel(deltaN166) is not detectable Hepacivirus C

Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
