UniProtKB description: Prevents premature death of the host cell during virus production, which would otherwise reduce the amount of progeny virus. Acts as a host B-cell leukemia/lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) homolog, and interacts with pro-apoptotic proteins to prevent mitochondria permeabilization, release of cytochrome c and subsequent apoptosis of the host cell. In addition, plays a role in the inhibiton of host BECN1-mediated starvation-induced autophagy without affecting basal levels of autophagy (PubMed:37776275).
