Required for aphid transmission and also has proteolytic activity. Only cleaves a Gly-Gly dipeptide at its own C-terminus (PubMed:2656254). Interacts with virions and aphid stylets (PubMed:9880030). Acts as a suppressor of RNA-mediated gene silencing, also known as post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS), a mechanism of plant viral defense that limits the accumulation of viral RNAs (PubMed:11414807). May have RNA-binding activity
