Description
Isoform Capsid protein ORF2: Forms an icosahedral capsid with a T=1 symmetry and a 34 nm diameter. The capsid is composed of 60 copies linked to each other. Binds to the 5' end of the genomic RNA to mediate genome encapsidation (By similarity). Binds to heparin surface proteoglycans (HSPGs) to mediate viral entry. Additionally, the interactions with host ASGR1 and ASGR2 facilitate viral infection of hepatocytes (By similarity).
Family
Belongs to the hepevirus capsid protein family.
Species
Hepatitis E virus genotype 1 (isolate Human/Pakistan/Sar-55)
