M protein is a structural protein of SARS-associated coronavirus (SARS-CoV). Zhao et al (2006) have demonstrated that M protein can induce cell death by apoptosis in human pulmonary fibroblasts. This effect is enhanced by another virus-encoded protein, SARS-associated coronavirus N protein.
Lai et al (2006) have reported that M protein triggers accelerated apoptosis in insect cells but not in mammalian cells.
