Chikungunya Virus Capsid Protein (C)

Target
C
Molecular classification
Structural protein, Nucleocapsid protein
01

Overview

The capsid protein (C) of Chikungunya virus is a multifunctional, non-glycosylated nucleocapsid protein that plays several crucial roles in the viral life cycle. It forms the nucleocapsid that encapsulates the viral RNA genome, functions in virus assembly and budding, regulates viral replication, and acts as a pleiotropic regulator of both host and viral protein synthesis. It contains linear B cell epitopes, suggesting its importance in immune recognition.
