UniProtKB description: Factor of infectivity and pathogenicity, required for optimal virus replication (PubMed:8151761). Alters numerous pathways of T-lymphocytes function and down-regulates immunity surface molecules in order to evade host defense and increase viral infectivity (PubMed:25585010). Alters the functionality of other immunity cells, like dendritic cells, monocytes/macrophages and NK cells (PubMed:25585010).
