Gene Name (REFSEQ) WU POLYOMAVIRUS; SMALL T ANTIGEN
Protein Type Unknown
Biological Properties
General Function Not Available
Specific Function Promotes efficient viral genome replication by accelerating both G1 and S phase progression of the cell cycle. Inhibits host PP2A by binding to the A subunit, thereby displacing lower affinity regulatory B subunit. Inactivation of PP2A in turn results in the transactivation of cyclin A and cyclin D1 promoters. Late during the infection cycle, ST may induce dephosphorylation of host MTOR, leading to the inhibition of cap-dependent translation. May establish and maintain high levels of viral genomes during persistent infection in cell culture.
