  Function in Host
As part of the ribosome quality control complex (RQC), aribosome-associated complex, mediates the extraction of incompletelysynthesized nascent chains from stalled ribosomes as well as theirubiquitin-mediated proteasomal degradation. Thereby, frees ribosomesfrom the stalled translation complex and prevents the accumulation ofnascent polypeptide chains that are potentially toxic for the cell. Itis responsible both for selective recognition of stalled 60S subunitsby recognizing an exposed, nascent chain-conjugated tRNA moiety and therecruitment of the E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase LTN1 to the ribosomequality control complex. May indirectly play a rolein nuclear export. [1-2]

Function of This Protein During Virus Infection
Virus NameSARS-COV-2 Protein Function Pro-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 NEMF in viral infection, NEMF 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 NEMF leads to the decreased SARS-CoV-2 RNA levels compared with control group.
