Protein Structure

UniProt Annotation

Function

Does not have 2'-5'-OAS activity, but can bind double- stranded RNA. Displays antiviral activity against encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) via an alternative antiviral pathway independent of RNase L. {ECO:0000269PubMed:18931074, ECO:0000269PubMed:20074559, ECO:0000269PubMed:9826176}.

Subcellular Localization

Isoform p56: Nucleus, nucleolus. Cytoplasm.Isoform p30: Cytoplasm.

Disease Associations

Tissue Specificity

Expressed in most tissues, with the highest levels in primary blood Leukocytes and other hematopoietic system tissues, colon, stomach and to some extent in testis.
