SARS-CoV-2 ORF8 immunoglobulin (Ig) domain protein and related proteins; This subfamily ...
 18-121 8.36e-69

SARS-CoV-2 ORF8 immunoglobulin (Ig) domain protein and related proteins; This subfamily includes the ORF8 immunoglobulin (Ig) domain protein of Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2, also known as a 2019 novel coronavirus, 2019-nCoV) and related Sarbecovirus ORF8 proteins. SARS-CoV-2 causes the disease called "coronavirus disease 2019" (COVID-19). SARS-CoV-2 ORF8 (also known as ns8 and accessory protein 8) is a fast-evolving protein in SARS-related CoVs, and a potential pathogenicity factor which evolves rapidly to counter the immune response and facilitate the transmission between hosts. A 382 nucleotide deletion in SARS-CoV-2 ORF8 was found to correlate with milder disease and a lower incidence of hypoxia. SARS-CoV-2 ORF8 interacts with a variety of host proteins, including many factors involved in ERAD. It disrupts IFN-I signaling when exogenously overexpressed in cells, and downregulates MHC-I. It belongs to a family which includes Sarbecovirus ORF8 proteins classified as type II, such as bat coronavirus Rf1 ORF8, and those classified as type III, such as Bat SARS coronavirus HKU3-1 ORF8.

 1-118 2.19e-39

Betacoronavirus NS8 protein; This family of proteins includes the accessory proteins encoded by the ORF8 in coronaviruses, also known as accessory protein 8, or non-structural protein 8 (NS8). This is distinct from NSP8, which is encoded on the replicase polyprotein. Proteins in this family are typically between 39 to 121 amino acids in length. This protein has two conserved sequence motifs: EDPCP and INCQ. It may modulate viral pathogenicity or replication in favour of human adaptation. ORF8 was suggested as one of the relevant genes in the study of human adaptation of the virus. This entry includes the NS8a and NS8b proteins from human SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV). Recently, the the structure of SARS-CoV-2 ORF has been determined and revealed a core of approximately 60 residues similar to SARS-CoV ORF7a, the Ig-like fold, with the addition of two dimerization interfaces unique to SARS-CoV-2 ORF8. It forms a covalent disulfide-linker dimer through an N-terminal sequence specific to SARS-CoV-2 and a separate non-covalent interface is formed by another SARS-CoV-2 specific sequence. The presence of these interfaces shows that SARS-CoV-2 ORF8 can form unique large-scale assemblies not possible for SARS-CoV, potentially mediating unique immune suppression and evasion activities.
