Preferred Label : Zika Virus Envelope Protein E;
NCIt synonyms : Zika Envelope Protein E; E; Envelope Protein E; E Protein;
NCIt definition : Zika virus envelope protein E (500 aa, 54 kDa) is encoded by the Zika virus E ORF
located within the Zika virus polyprotein gene. This protein plays a role in mediating
both binding to host cell surface receptors and the fusion of the viral envelope with
cellular membranes.;
NCIt note : Zika virus envelope protein E is comprised of amino acid residues 291-790 of the Zika
virus genome polyprotein. (UniProt);
