Store as concentrated solution. Centrifuge briefly prior to opening vial. For short-term storage (1-2 weeks), store at 4°C. For long-term storage, aliquot and store at -20°C or below. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
Inhibits host translation by interacting with the 40S ribosomal subunit (PubMed:32680882). Nsp1 C terminus binds to and obstructs ribosomal mRNA entry tunnel (PubMed:32680882). Thereby inhibits antiviral response triggered by innate immunity or interferons (PubMed:32680882). The nsp1-40S ribosome complex further induces an endonucleolytic cleavage near the 5'UTR of host mRNAs, targeting them for degradation. Viral mRNAs are not susceptible to nsp1-mediated endonucleolytic RNA cleavage thanks to the presence of a 5'-end leader sequence and are therefore protected from degradation. By suppressing host gene expression, nsp1 facilitates efficient viral gene expression in infected cells and evasion from host immune response.
