Pestiviruses are positive-strand RNA viruses closely related to human hepatitis C virus. Gene expression of these viruses occurs via translation of a polyprotein, which is further processed by cellular and viral proteases. Here we report the formation of a stable complex between an as-yet-undescribed cellular J-domain protein, a member of the DnaJ-chaperone family, and pestiviral nonstructural protein NS2. Accordingly, we termed the cellular protein Jiv, for J-domain protein interacting with vir ...[more]
