CC -!- FUNCTION: Disrupts bidirectional nucleocytoplasmic transport by
CC interacting with host RAE1-NUP98 complex (PubMed:33849972). Disrupts
CC cell nuclear import complex formation also by tethering karyopherin
CC alpha 2 and karyopherin beta 1 to the membrane (PubMed:17596301).
CC Retention of import factors at the ER/Golgi membrane leads to a loss of
CC transport into the nucleus (PubMed:17596301). Thereby prevents STAT1
CC nuclear translocation in response to interferon signaling, thus
CC blocking the expression of interferon stimulated genes (ISGs) that
CC display multiple antiviral activities (PubMed:17596301).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17596301, ECO:0000269|PubMed:33849972}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: May interact with nsp8 (PubMed:17532020). Interacts with
CC protein ORF9b (PubMed:22820404). Interacts with host RAE1 in NUP98-RAE1
CC complex (PubMed:35096974); the interaction disrupts the host nuclear
CC import (PubMed:33849972). Interacts with host KPNA2 (PubMed:17596301).
