Poliovirus protein 2C contains two regions involved in RNA binding activity.

Abstract excerpt

Poliovirus protein 2C is involved in poliovirus RNA replication, although the exact function of 2C is still unknown. Recently, it was shown that 2C can be purified to high levels when expressed as a fusion protein with maltose-binding protein (MBP). Evidence was presented that 2C has ATPase and GTPase activities; preliminary results also indicated that 2C interacts with RNA (Rodríguez, P.L., and Carrasco, L....
