| UniProt functional annotation for P03187 | |||
| UniProt code: P03187. |
| Organism: | Epstein-Barr virus (strain B95-8) (HHV-4) (Human herpesvirus 4). | |
| Taxonomy: | Viruses; Duplodnaviria; Heunggongvirae; Peploviricota; Herviviricetes; Herpesvirales; Herpesviridae; Gammaherpesvirinae; Lymphocryptovirus. | |
| Function: | Structural component of the T=16 icosahedral capsid. The capsid is composed of pentamers and hexamers of major capsid protein/MCP, which are linked together by heterotrimers called triplexes. These triplexes are formed by a single molecule of triplex protein 1/TRX1 and two copies of triplex protein 2/TRX2. Additionally, TRX1 is required for efficient transport of TRX2 to the nucleus, which is the site of capsid assembly. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_04018}. | |
| Subunit: | Interacts with TRX2, MCP and capsid vertex component 2/CVC2. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_04018}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Virion {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_04018}. Host nucleus {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_04018}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the herpesviridae TRX1 protein family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_04018}. | |
