  Function in Host
Lipid-binding protein which promotes lipid absorption byfacilitating MTTP-mediated lipid transfer (mainly triglycerides andphospholipids) and MTTP-mediated apoB lipoprotein assembly andsecretion. Protects the gastrointestinal epitheliumfrom irradiation-induced apoptosis. May play animportant role in maintaining normal growth homeostasis in epithelialcells. Involved in p53/TP53-dependent cell survivalafter DNA damage. May down-regulate the expression ofMAD1L1 and exert a suppressive role in mitotic spindle assemblycheckpoint in hepatocellular carcinomas. [1-3]

Function of This Protein During Virus Infection
Virus NameSARS-COV-2 Protein Function Anti-viral [4]
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 PRAP1 in viral infection, PRAP1 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 PRAP1 increases SARS-CoV-2 RNA levels compared with control group.
