AC MF_04068; DC Protein; auto TR HAMAP; MF_04068; -; 1; level=0 XX Names: INFV_M1 XX ID M1 DE RecName: Full=Matrix protein 1; DE Short=M1; GN Name=M; XX CC -!- FUNCTION: Plays critical roles in virus replication, from virus entry CC and uncoating to assembly and budding of the virus particle. M1 binding CC to ribonucleocapsids (RNPs) in nucleus seems to inhibit viral CC transcription. Interaction of viral NEP with M1-RNP is thought to CC promote nuclear export of the complex, which is targeted to the virion CC assembly site at the apical plasma membrane in polarized epithelial CC cells. Interactions with NA and HA may bring M1, a non-raft-associated CC protein, into lipid rafts. Forms a continuous shell on the inner side CC of the lipid bilayer in virion, where it binds the RNP. During virus CC entry into cell, the M2 ion channel acidifies the internal virion core, CC inducing M1 dissociation from the RNP. M1-free RNPs are transported to CC the nucleus, where viral transcription and replication can take place. CC -!- FUNCTION: Determines the virion's shape: spherical or filamentous. CC Clinical isolates of influenza are characterized by the presence of CC significant proportion of filamentous virions, whereas after multiple CC passage on eggs or cell culture, virions have only spherical CC morphology. Filamentous virions are thought to be important to infect CC neighboring cells, and spherical virions more suited to spread through CC aerosol between hosts organisms. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer and homomultimer. Interacts with NEP. Binds CC ribonucleocapsid by both interacting with genomic RNA and NP protein. CC May interact with HA and NA. Cannot bind NP without genomic RNA. CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Virion membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; CC Cytoplasmic side. Host nucleus. CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Most abundant protein in virion. When expressed alone CC can form virus-like particles in transfected cells. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the influenza viruses Matrix protein M1 family.
