The nucleocapsid protein of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 encapsidates the viral genome and is essential for viral function. The central disordered domain comprises a serine-arginine-rich (SR) region that is hyperphosphorylated in infected cells. This modification regulates function, although mechanistic details remain unknown.

The E627K adaptive mutation compensates a 33-amino-acid deletion in the acidic intrinsically disordered domain of the host transcription regulator ANP32A, a deletion that restricts FluPol activity in mammalian cells. The function of ANP32A in the replication transcription complex and in particular its role in host restriction remains poorly understood.
