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), nine accessory proteins, and four canonical structural proteins: spike (S), envelope (E), membrane (M), and nucleocapsid (N) (2). Nsp2 (non-structural protein 2) is derived from ORF1a and ORF1b (2). It is reported to interact with a protein involved in translational repression known as GIGYF2. GIGYF2 normally interacts with another translational repressor, 4EHP. These proteins together in a larger complex function to inhibit translation of mRNAs that may be defective during development. Upon infection with SARS-CoV-2, however, Nsp2 binds to GIGYF2 and exerts a stronger effect on host cell translation by 4EHP dependent and independent mechanisms, with inhibition of interferon translation being one of the notable effects (3).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nnon-structural protein 2; non-structural protein 2 (181-818); nsp2; nsp2-pp1a-pp1ab; p65 homolog; SARS-CoV-2 nsp2\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: Vir\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 80\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800246538409,"sku":"96795T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-96795t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
