General rule information [?]

Accession PRU00860
Dates 9-JUN-2011 (Created)
21-NOV-2019 (Last updated, Version 6)
Data class Domain;
Predictors PROSITE; PS51528; FLAVIVIRUS_NS3PRO
Name Flavivirus NS3 protease (NS3pro) domain
Function The NS3pro has a classical serine protease catalytic triad (His, Asp, and Ser). The enzymatic activity of NS3pro is enhanced by interacting with the central 40 amino acid of NS2B which acts as an essential cofactor.
Scope(s) Viruses
Flaviviridae
Example(s) P07564 (POLG_DEN2J);

case <FTGroup:1>
FUNCTIONSerine protease NS3: Displays three enzymatic activities: serine protease, NTPase and RNA helicase. NS3 serine protease, in association with NS2B, performs its autocleavage and cleaves the polyprotein at dibasic sites in the cytoplasm: C-prM, NS2A-NS2B, NS2B- NS3, NS3-NS4A, NS4A-2K and NS4B-NS5. NS3 RNA helicase binds RNA and unwinds dsRNA in the 3' to 5' direction.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATIONSerine protease NS3: Host endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Note=Remains non-covalently associated to serine protease subunit NS2B.
