  Function in Host
Involved in ribosomal large subunit assembly. S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent methyltransferasethat specifically methylates the C (5) position of cytosine 4447 in 28SrRNA. May play a role in the regulation of the cell cycleand the increased nucleolar activity that is associated with the cellproliferation. [1-2]

Function of This Protein During Virus Infection
Virus NameSARS-COV-2 Protein Function Anti-viral [3]
Infected TissueLung Infection Time7-9 Days
Infected CellCalu-3 Cells (Human epithelial cell line) Cellosaurus IDCVCL_0609 
Method DescriptionTo detect the role of host protein NOP2 in viral infection, NOP2 protein knockout Calu-3 Cells were infected with SARS-COV-2 for 7 - 9 Days , and the effects on infection was detected through CRISPR-based genome-wide gene-knockout screen.
ResultsIt is reported that knockout of NOP2 increases SARS-CoV-2 RNA levels compared with control group.
