Viral nonstructural protein

In virology, a nonstructural protein is a protein encoded by a virus but that is not part of the viral particle.[1] They typically include the various enzymes and transcription factors the virus uses to replicate itself, such as a viral protease (3CL/nsp5, etc.), an RNA replicase or other template-directed polymerases, and some means to control the host.

Examples

gollark: So in the many worlds interpretation, do you instead get different universes where they were either funny or serious instead of them just collapsing into one state?
gollark: Samsung ones are horrendously overpriced.
gollark: M.2 is a form factor and as far as I'm aware there are no non-solid state disks in that size.
gollark: Er, all existing M.2 drives *are* SSDs.
gollark: All my stuff uses SSDs, which are silent, faster and somewhat more expensive.
