Protein
Lectin-like protein EP153R
Organism
African swine fever virus (isolate Pig/Kenya/KEN-50/1950)
Function
Participates to viral hemadsorption, which may help viral spread. Reduces the transactivating activity of host TP53, thus inhibiting apoptosis (By similarity). Non-essential for virus growth in swine macrophage cell cultures (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the asfivirus lectin-like protein family.
