The Nsp1 protein of SARS-CoV-2 regulates the translation of host and viral mRNAs in cells. Nsp1 inhibits host translation initiation by occluding the entry channel of the 40S ribosome subunit. The structural study of SARS-CoV-2 Nsp1-ribosomal complexes reported post-termination 80S complex containing Nsp1 and the eRF1 and ABCE1 proteins. Considering the presence of Nsp1 in the post-termination 80S ribosomal complex simultaneously with eRF1, we hypothesized that Nsp1 may be involved in translation termination. Using a cell-free translation system and reconstituted in vitro translation system, we show that Nsp1 stimulates translation termination in the stop codon recognition stage at all three stop codons. This stimulation targets the release factor 1 (eRF1) and does not affect the release factor 3 (eRF3). The activity of Nsp1 in translation termination is provided by its N-terminal domain and the minimal required part of eRF1 is NM domain. We assume that biological meaning of Nsp1 activity in translation termination is binding with the 80S ribosomes translating host mRNAs and removal them from the pool of the active ribosomes.
