Target Information
| Target Symbol | BST2 |
|---|---|
| Target Name | Bone marrow stromal antigen 2 |
| UniProt ID | Q10589 |
| Cellular Localization | Golgi apparatus > trans-Golgi network. Cell membrane. Cell membrane. Late endosome. Targeted to late endosomes upon KSHV infection and subsequent ubiquitination. Targeted to the trans-Golgi network by viral VPU protein. |
| Function | May be involved in the sorting of secreted proteins (By similarity). May be involved in pre-B-cell growth. Antiretroviral defense protein, that blocks release of retrovirus from the cell surface. Depleted unpon HIV-1 infection by viral VPU protein through 2S proteasome degradation. Depleted upon infection by human Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) through ubiquitination and subsequent degradation. May play a role in B-cell activation in rheumatoid arthritis. |
| Post-translational Modifications | Monoubiquitinated by KSHV E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase K5, leading to its targeting to late endosomes and degradation. |
| Domain | The extracellular coiled coil domain is important for virus retention at the cell surface and prevention of virus spreading. |
| Sequence Similarities | Belongs to the tetherin family. |
