malfunction | CVB3 mutants, that arise with passage in polyamine-depleted conditions, contain mutations in the 2A protease (EC 3.4.22.29) and 3C protease (EC 3.4.22.28). These mutant proteases confer resistance to polyamine depletion. The 2A and 3C protease mutations also enhance reporter protease activity in polyamine-depleted conditions. The mutations promote cleavage of cellular eIF4G during infection of polyamine-depleted cells | Coxsackievirus B3 |
physiological function | viral proteases play many roles during infection, and picornaviruses encode two distinct proteases: 2A (2Apro) and 3C (3Cpro). The 2A and 3C picornaviral proteases function to cleave both host and viral proteins. 3C protease is responsible for the majority of viral polyprotein cleavage, while 2A facilitates the cleavage between the P1 and P2 protein segments. Polyamines are crucial to protease function during picornavirus infection | Coxsackievirus B3 |
