Movement protein

InterPro entry
Short nameMPV
family relationships

Description

This entry includes movement proteins from various viruses, including Movement protein (also known as Protein 3A) from Bromoviruses and Cucumoviruses, whose genomes contain 3 RNA segments. The third segment (RNA 3) contains two proteins, the coat protein and the 3A protein. Protein 3A has been shown to be involved in cell-to-cell movement of the virus
[1]
. The protein family also includes NSm protein from Tomato spotted wilt virus which is involved in tubule formation, movement and symptomatology
