SARS-CoV nsp3 is a large multidomain protein of 1922 amino acids Thiel et al., 2003) that is thought to contain at least seven domains: (1) an N-terminal Glu-rich acidic domain (AD); (2) an X domain (XD) with poly(ADP-ribose) binding properties Saikatendu et al., 2005) ; (3) the SUD domain (for SARS-CoV Unique Domain, an insertion not found in any other coronavirus thus far) with a specific affinity for oligo(G)-strings (Tan et al., in press); (4) a papain-like protease (PLP2), recently shown to exhibit deubiquitinating activity (Barretto et al., 2005; Harcourt et al., 2004; Lindner et al., 2005; Ratia et al., 2006) ; (5) an unknown domain possibly extending the papain-like protease domain, termed PLnc for Papain-Like noncanonical (see below); (6) a transmembrane domain (Kanjanahaluethai et al., 2007) corresponding to the N-terminal of the Y domain; and (7) the remainder of the Y domain, the abbreviation "Y domain" will be used for this part in this study. ./cache/cord-290948-cuu78cvl.txt ./txt/cord-290948-cuu78cvl.txt
