Monkeypox virus, I3L-R(MPYF-0722-KX1560)

Target

I3L

Full Name

DNA-binding phosphoprotein

Alternative Names

MPXVgp064; I3L; DNA-binding phosphoprotein; has strong affinity for ssDNA suggesting a role in DNA replication and/or repair; The poxviridae are enveloped unsegmented dsDNA viruses; unlike many dsDNA viruses that replicate in the host nucleus poxviruses encode their own replication machinery and therefore replicate in the cytoplasm; viral genes are expressed in a bi-phasic manner with early genes encoding non-structural proteins involved in genome replication and late genes encoding the viral structural proteins; the DNA-binding phosphoprotein is expressed at early and intermediate times postinfection
