Gene Accession
P09288
Gene Alias
Protein UL24 homolog
Background
FUNCTION: May participate in nuclear egress of viral particles. Plays a role in the dispersal of several host nucleolar proteins including NCL/nucleolin and NPM1. Since deletion of host NCL/nucleolin negatively impact on nuclear egress, UL24 supposedly acts on this process through its effect on host nucleoli (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
