E/Envelope Protein, West Nile virus Lineage 1 (120a.a, P.pastoris, His)

E/Envelope Protein, West Nile virus Lineage 1 (120a.a, P.pastoris, His) is the recombinant Virus-derived E/Envelope protein, expressed by P. pastoris, with C-His labeled tag.

E/Envelope acts as a chaperone for the envelope protein E during intracellular virion assembly by masking and inactivating the fusion peptide of envelope protein E. prM is the only viral peptide matured by host furin in the trans-Golgi network, likely to prevent catastrophic activation of viral fusion activity in the acidic Golgi compartment prior to virion release. prM-E cleavage is inefficient, resulting in many virions being only partially matured. These uncleaved prM may play a role in immune evasion. by similar: These uncleaved prM may play a role in immune evasion.
