SARS-CoV-2 is a member of the Coronaviridae family of viruses (1). The genome of SARS-CoV-2 is relatively large and encodes up to 29 open reading frames (ORFs). These include ORF1a and ORF1b (further processed into 16 non-structural proteins), 9 accessory proteins, and 4 canonical structural proteins: spike (S), envelope (E), membrane (M), and nucleocapsid (N) (2). ORF8 is transcribed and translated from an ORF in the nested subgenomic RNA of the SARS-CoV-2 genome. It is one of the most divergent proteins in the SARS-CoV genome, and is believed to interfere with the immune response by binding to MHC-1 molecules and targeting them for lysosomal degradation via autophagy (3,4).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nNon-structural protein 8; ns8; ORF8 protein; SARS-CoV-2 ORF8 protein\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: Vir\nSENSITIVITY: Transfected Only\nMW (kDa): 20\nSOURCE: Rabbit","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800245031081,"sku":"79244S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-79244s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
