Function | Encapsidates the genome protecting it from nucleases (Probable). The encapsidated genomic RNA is termed the nucleocapsid (NC) and serves as template for transcription and replication (Probable). The nucleocapsid has a left-handed helical structure (By similarity). As a trimer, specifically binds and acts as a chaperone to unwind the panhandle structure formed by the viral RNA (vRNA) termini (By similarity). Involved in the transcription and replication initiation of vRNA by mediating primer annealing (By similarity). Plays a role in cap snatching by sequestering capped RNAs in P bodies for use by the viral RdRp during transcription initiation (By similarity). Substitutes for the cellular cap-binding complex (eIF4F) to preferentially facilitate the translation of capped mRNAs (By similarity). Initiates the translation by specifically binding to the cap and 40S ribosomal subunit (By similarity). Prevents the viral glycoprotein N (Gn) from autophagy-dependent breakdown maybe by blocking autophagosome formation (By similarity). Inhibits host EIF2AK2/PKR dimerization to prevent PKR-induced translational shutdown in cells and thus the activation of the antiviral state (By similarity). Also displays sequence-unspecific DNA endonuclease activity (By similarity). |

Background
Puumala virus (PUUV) is a rodent-borne hantavirus of the family Bunyaviridae, an enveloped, negative-sense RNA viruses with a tripartite genome that can cause hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) and is highly homologous to the protype hantavirus Hantaan virus (1). Like other hantaviruses, the PUUV glycoprotein is synthesized as a precursor that is posttranslationally processed into two glycoproteins G1 (Gn) and G2 (Gc). These glycoproteins interact with the PUUV nucleocapsid (NP) protein through their cytoplasmic tail, and this association has been suggested to be crucial to the binding of the ribonucleoprotein of the PUUV and the assembly of the virus particle (2).
