| UniProt functional annotation for P10226 | |||
| UniProt code: P10226. |
| Organism: | Human herpesvirus 1 (strain 17) (HHV-1) (Human herpes simplex virus 1). | |
| Taxonomy: | Viruses; Duplodnaviria; Heunggongvirae; Peploviricota; Herviviricetes; Herpesvirales; Herpesviridae; Alphaherpesvirinae; Simplexvirus. | |
| Function: | Plays an essential role in viral DNA replication by acting as the polymerase accessory subunit. Associates with the viral polymerase to increase its processivity and forms high-affinity direct interactions with DNA. Facilitates the origin-binding protein UL9 loading onto DNA thus increasing its ability to assemble into a functional complex capable of unwinding duplex DNA. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2173776}. | |
| Subunit: | Interacts with the DNA polymerase catalytic subunit UL30. Interacts with the origin-binding protein. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15673714, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2173776}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Host nucleus. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the herpesviridae DNA polymerase processivity factor family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
