Table 1.

ReoV proteins and their known functions. This table lists all proteins encoded by the ReoV genome, the segment which encodes each protein, the known functions of the proteins, and their location in the virion.

Encoded Protein Genome Segment Role in Viral Life Cycle Role in the Immune Response Location Reference
λ3 L1 RNA-dependent RNA polymerase Unknown inner capsid [27]
λ2 L2 Capping (methyltransferase and guanylyltransferase activity)
Forms interactions with β1 integrin on host cell
Forms a channel for the export of viral RNA
Unknown inner capsid [41,51]
λ1 L3 Possible helicase/NTPase
Forms the viral core
Unknown inner capsid [52]
μ2 M1 RNA binding
NTPase
RNA triphosphatase
Associates with host microtubules to aid in viral factory formation
Inhibits interferon signaling inner capsid [24,53,54,55]
μ1 (cleaved into μ1C and μ1N) M2 Forms pores in endosomes Induces apoptosis outer capsid [56,57]
μNS + μNSC M3 Forms viral factories
Provides scaffolding for progeny core assembly
Imhibits IRF3 signaling non-structural [26,55]
σ1 + σ1s S1 σ1 binds to host cell receptor such as JAM-A
Glycosidase
σ1 binds host cell
σ1s can induce cell cycle arrest
σ1 = outer capsid
σ1s = non-structural
[55,58,59,60]
σ2 S2 Interacts with λ1 to form the viral core
dsRNA binding
Unknown inner capsid [28,45,61]
σNS S4 RNA binding
Viral factory formation
May be involved in genome packaging
Unknown non-structrual [31,62,63]
σ3 S3 dsRNA binding
May mediate binding to NgR1
Blocks PKR
Blocks RLR signaling
Binds µ1 to attenuate apoptosis
outer capsid [37,64,65]
