Protein
Lectin-like protein EP153R
Organism
African swine fever virus (strain Badajoz 1971 Vero-adapted)
Function
Participates to viral hemadsorption, which may help viral spread (PubMed:10639320). Reduces the transactivating activity of host TP53, thus inhibiting apoptosis (PubMed:15262504). Non-essential for virus growth in swine macrophage cell cultures (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the asfivirus lectin-like protein family.
