Gene Alias
Membrane protein (M) (E1 glycoprotein) (Matrix glycoprotein) (Membrane glycoprotein)
Background
FUNCTION: Component of the viral envelope that plays a central role in virus morphogenesis and assembly via its interactions with other viral proteins (By similarity). Regulates the localization of S protein at cis-Golgi, the place of virus budding (PubMed:33229438). May act by binding cytoplasmic c-terminus of S (PubMed:33229438). {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_04202, ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU01275, ECO:0000269|PubMed:33229438}.
