Nidovirus RdRP-associated nucleotidyltransferase domain (NiRAN)

Target: NiRAN
Molecular classification: Enzyme, Viral protein, Nucleotidyltransferase

Overview

The NiRAN domain is a conserved N-terminal domain found in the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) of all nidoviruses. It possesses nucleotidyltransferase and kinase-like activities, playing a crucial role in viral RNA synthesis, mRNA capping, and replication priming. Its conservation and essential function make it an attractive antiviral drug target.
