Nonstructural protein 9 from SARS-Cov-2 is an obligate homodimer, comprising a unique fold that associates via an unusual α-helical GxxxG interaction motif. The integrity of this motif is considered important for viral replication (Littler et al, 2020; Miknis et al, 2009). The dimer units associate to form tetramers (Zhang et al, 2020).
