| UniProt functional annotation for Q7ZB17 | |||
| UniProt code: Q7ZB17. |
| Organism: | Simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV). | |
| Taxonomy: | Viruses; Riboviria; Pararnavirae; Artverviricota; Revtraviricetes; Ortervirales; Retroviridae; Orthoretrovirinae; Lentivirus. | |
| Function: | Stimulates gene expression driven by the HIV-2 LTR. Prevents infected cells from undergoing mitosis and proliferating, by inducing arrest or delay in the G2 phase of the cell cycle. Cell cycle arrest creates a favorable environment for maximizing viral expression and production. {ECO:0000256|RuleBase:RU364021}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Virion {ECO:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00004328, ECO:0000256|RuleBase:RU364021}. Host nucleus {ECO:0000256|RuleBase:RU364021}. | |
