NS5A Promotes Constitutive Degradation of IP3R3 to Counteract Apoptosis Induced by Hepatitis C Virus

Summary: FBXL2 targets IP3R3 for ubiquitin-mediated degradation to limit Ca2+ flux to mitochondria and, consequently, apoptosis. Efficient replication of hepatitis C virus (HCV) requires geranylgeranylation of FBXL2. Here, we show that the viral protein NS5A forms a trimeric complex with IP3R3 and F...
