General description of the gene and the encoded protein(s) using information from HGNC and Ensembl, as well as predictions made by the Human Protein Atlas project.
Gene namei
Official gene symbol, which is typically a short form of the gene name, according to HGNC.
Shiftless antiviral inhibitor of ribosomal frameshifting
Predicted locationi
All transcripts of all genes have been analyzed regarding the location(s) of corresponding protein based on prediction methods for signal peptides and transmembrane regions.
Genes with at least one transcript predicted to encode a secreted protein, according to prediction methods or to UniProt location data, have been further annotated and classified with the aim to determine if the corresponding protein(s) are secreted or actually retained in intracellular locations or membrane-attached.
Remaining genes, with no transcript predicted to encode a secreted protein, will be assigned the prediction-based location(s).
The annotated location overrules the predicted location, so that a gene encoding a predicted secreted protein that has been annotated as intracellular will have intracellular as the final location.
Gene information from Ensembl and Entrez, as well as links to available gene identifiers are displayed here. Information was retrieved from Ensembl if not indicated otherwise.

Inhibits programmed -1 ribosomal frameshifting (-1PRF) of a variety of mRNAs from viruses, such as HIV1, and cellular genes, such as PEG10. Interacts with the -1PRF signal of target mRNA and translating ribosomes and causes premature translation termination at the frameshifting site 1. Regulates HIV1 GAG-POL expression by inhibiting -1PRF 2. Exhibits antiviral activity against dengue virus (DENV) and can inhibit the replication of all DENV serotypes. May block the protein translation of DENV RNA via its association with cellular mRNA-binding proteins and viral RNA. Interrupts also Zika virus replication by promoting viral NS3 degradation via a lysosome-dependent pathway 3. Can also limit the replication of hepatitis C virus (HCV) by restricting formation of viral replication organelle, West Nile virus (WNV), Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), herpes simplex virus type 1 (HHV-1), herpes virus type 8 (HHV-8) and human adenovirus 4,5,6,7. Binds nucleic acids with a higher affinity for ssRNA and ssDNA than for dsDNA 8....show less

Gene summary (Entrez)i
Useful information about the gene from Entrez
This gene is an interferon stimulated gene (ISG) that inhibits viral replication. The encoded protein binds nucleic acids and inhibits programmed -1 ribosomal frameshifting required for translation by many RNA viruses. Viruses inhibited by the protein include Zika virus, dengue virus and the coronaviruses, SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV2. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2021]...show less
PROTEIN INFORMATIONi
The protein information section displays alternative protein-coding transcripts (splice variants) encoded by this gene according to the Ensembl database.
The Splice variant identifier links to the Ensembl website protein summary for the selected splice variant. The data in the Swissprot and TrEMBL columns links to corresponding pages in the UniProt database.
The protein classes assigned to this protein are shown if expanding the data in the protein class column. Parent protein classes are in bold font and subclasses are listed under the parent class.
The length of the protein (amino acid residues according to Ensembl), molecular mass (kDalton), predicted signal peptide and number of predicted transmembrane region(s) according to in-house majority decision methods based on sets of predictors are also reported.
