Organism
African swine fever virus (isolate Tick/South Africa/Pretoriuskop Pr4/1996)
Function
Interacts with the host phosphatase PP1 catalytic subunit (PPP1CB) and recruits it to dephosphorylate EIF2S1/eIF2alpha and therefore restores the host translation that has been shut-down by the host. Also inhibits the EIF2S1/eIF2alpha-ATF4-DDIT3/CHOP pathway.
Similarity
Belongs to the asfivirus DP71L family.
