The major coat protein of the L-A double-stranded RNA virus of Saccharomyces cerevisiae covalently binds m7 GMP from 5' capped mRNAs in vitro. We show that this cap binding also occurs in vivo and that, while this activity is required for expression of viral information (killer toxin mRNA level and toxin production) in a wild-type strain, this requirement is suppressed by deletion of SKI1/XRN1/SEP1. We propose that the virus creates decapped cellular mRNAs to decoy the 5'-->3' exoribonuclease specific for cap- RNA encoded by XRN1. The SKI2 antiviral gene represses the copy numbers of the L-A and L-BC viruses and the 20S RNA replicon, apparently by specifically blocking translation of viral RNA. We show that SKI2, SKI3, and SKI8 inhibit translation of electroporated luciferase and beta-glucuronidase mRNAs in vivo, but only if they lack the 3' poly(A) structure. Thus, L-A decoys the SKI1/XRN1/SEP1 exonuclease directed at 5' uncapped ends, but translation of the L-A poly(A)- mRNA is repressed by Ski2,3,8p. The SKI2-SKI3-SKI8 system is more effective against cap+ poly(A)- mRNA, suggesting a (nonessential) role in blocking translation of fragmented cellular mRNAs. 相似文献

The yeast superkiller (SKI) genes were originally identified from mutations allowing increased production of killer toxin encoded by M "killer" virus, a satellite of the dsRNA virus L-A. XRN1 (SKI1) encodes a cytoplasmic 5'-exoribonuclease responsible for the majority of cytoplasmic RNA turnover, whereas SKI2, SKI3, and SKI8 are required for normal 3'-degradation of mRNA and for repression of translation of poly(A) minus RNA. Ski2p is a putative RNA helicase, Ski3p is a tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) protein, and Ski8p contains five WD-40 (beta-transducin) repeats. An xrn1 mutation in combination with a ski2, ski3, or ski8 mutation is lethal, suggesting redundancy of function. Using functional epitope-tagged Ski2, Ski3, and Ski8 proteins, we show that Ski2p, Ski3p, and Ski8p can be coimmunoprecipitated as an apparent heterotrimeric complex. With epitope-tagged Ski2p, there was a 1:1:1 stoichiometry of the proteins in the complex. Ski2p did not associate with Ski3p in the absence of Ski8p, nor did Ski2p associate with Ski8p in the absence of Ski3p. However, the Ski3p/Ski8p interaction did not require Ski2p. In addition, ski6-2 or ski4-1 mutations or deletion of SKI7 did not affect complex formation. The identification of a complex composed of Ski2p, Ski3p, and Ski8p explains previous results showing phenotypic similarity between mutations in SKI2, SKI3, and SKI8. Indirect immunofluorescence of Ski3p and subcellular fractionation of Ski2p and Ski3p suggest that Ski2p and Ski3p are cytoplasmic. These data support the idea that Ski2p, Ski3p, and Ski8p function in the cytoplasm in a 3'-mRNA degradation pathway. 相似文献

We mapped and cloned SKI7, a gene that negatively controls the copy number of L-A and M double-stranded RNA viruses in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We found that it encodes a nonessential 747-residue protein with similarities to two translation factors, Hbs1p and EF1-alpha. The ski7 mutant was hypersensitive to hygromycin B, a result also suggesting a role in translation. The SKI7 product repressed the expression of nonpolyadenylated [non-poly(A)] mRNAs, whether capped or uncapped, thus explaining why Ski7p inhibits the propagation of the yeast viruses, whose mRNAs lack poly(A). The dependence of the Ski7p effect on 3' RNA structures motivated a study of the expression of capped non-poly(A) luciferase mRNAs containing 3' untranslated regions (3'UTRs) differing in length. In a wild-type strain, increasing the length of the 3'UTR increased luciferase expression due to both increased rates and duration of translation. Overexpression of Ski7p efficiently cured the satellite virus M2 due to a twofold-increased repression of non-poly(A) mRNA expression. Our experiments showed that Ski7p is part of the Ski2p-Ski3p-Ski8p antiviral system because a single ski7 mutation derepresses the expression of non-poly(A) mRNA as much as a quadruple ski2 ski3 ski7 ski8 mutation, and the effect of the overexpression of Ski7p is not obtained unless other SKI genes are functional. ski1/xrn1Delta ski2Delta and ski1/xrn1Delta ski7Delta mutants were viable but temperature sensitive for growth. 相似文献

Killer strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae bear at least two different double-stranded RNAs (dsRNAs) encapsidated in 39-nm viruslike particles (VLPs) of which the major coat protein is coded by the larger RNA (L-A dsRNA). The smaller dsRNA (M1 or M2) encodes an extracellular protein toxin (K1 or K2 toxin). Based on their densities on CsCl gradients, L-A- and M1-containing particles can be separated. Using this method, we detected a new type of M1 dsRNA-containing VLP (M1-H VLP, for heavy) that has a higher density than those previously reported (M1-L VLP, for light). M1-H and M1-L VLPs are present together in the same strains and in all those we tested. M1-H, M1-L, and L-A VLPs all have the same types of proteins in the same approximate proportions, but whereas L-A VLPs and M1-L VLPs have one dsRNA molecule per particle, M1-H VLPs contain two M1 dsRNA molecules per particle. Their RNA polymerase produces mainly plus single strands that are all extruded in the case of M1-H particles but are partially retained inside the M1-L particles to be used later for dsRNA synthesis. We show that M1-H VLPs are formed in vitro from the M1-L VLPs. We also show that the peak of M1 dsRNA synthesis is in fractions lighter than M1-L VLPs, presumably those carrying only a single plus M1 strand. We suggest that VLPs carrying two M1 dsRNAs (each 1.8 kilobases) can exist because the particle is designed to carry one L-A dsRNA (4.5 kilobases). 相似文献

pet18 mutations in Saccharomyces cerevisiae confer on the cell the inability to maintain either L-A or M double-stranded RNAs (dsRNAs) at the nonpermissive temperature. In in vitro experiments, we examined the effects of pet18 mutations on the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase activity associated with virus-like particles (VLPs). pet18 mutations caused thermolabile RNA polymerase activity of L-A VLPs, and this thermolability was found to be due to the instability of the L-A VLP structure. The pet18 mutations did not affect RNA polymerase activity of M VLPs. Furthermore, the temperature sensitivity of wild-type L-A RNA polymerase differed substantially from that of M RNA polymerase. From these results, and from other genetic and biochemical lines of evidence which suggest that replication of M dsRNA requires the presence of L-A dsRNA, we propose that the primary effect of the pet18 mutation is on the L-A VLP structure and that the inability of pet18 mutants to maintain M dsRNA comes from the loss of L-A dsRNA. 相似文献

M dsRNA in yeast encodes a toxin precursor and immunity protein, whereas L-A dsRNA encodes the 81,000-dalton major protein of the intracellular particles in which both L-A and M are found. L-(BC) dsRNA(s) are found in particles with different coat proteins. We find that M dsRNA lowers the copy number of L-A, but not L-(BC). The SKI gene products lower the copy number of L-(BC), L-A, M1 and M2. This is the first known interaction of L-(BC) with any element of the killer systems. The MAK3, MAK10 and PET18 gene products are necessary for L-A maintenance and replication, but mutations in these genes do not affect L-(BC) copy number. Mutations in MAK1, MAK4, MAK7, MAK17 and MAK24 do not detectably affect copy number of L-(BC) or L-A. 相似文献

X double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) is a 0.52-kilobase dsRNA molecule that arose spontaneously in a nonkiller strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae originally containing L-A and L-BC dsRNAs (L-BC is the same size as L-A but shares no homology with it). X hybridized with L-A, and direct RNA sequencing of X showed that the first 5' 25 base pairs (of the X positive strand) and at least the last 110 base pairs of the 3' end were identical to the ends of L-A dsRNA. X showed cytoplasmic inheritance and, like M1, was dependent on L-A for its maintenance. X was encapsidated in viruslike particles whose major coat protein was provided by L-A (as is true for M1), and X was found in viruslike particles with one to eight X molecules per particle. This finding confirms our "head-full replication" model originally proposed for M1 and M2. Like M1 or M2, X lowers the copy number of L-A, especially in a ski host. Surprisingly, X requires many chromosomal MAK genes that are necessary for M1 but not for L-A. 相似文献

Ski6p Is a Homolog of RNA-Processing Enzymes That Affects Translation of Non-Poly(A) mRNAs and 60S Ribosomal Subunit Biogenesis 总被引:11,自引:6,他引:5

We mapped and cloned SKI6 of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a gene that represses the copy number of the L-A double-stranded RNA virus, and found that it encodes an essential 246-residue protein with homology to a tRNA-processing enzyme, RNase PH. The ski6-2 mutant expressed electroporated non-poly(A) luciferase mRNAs 8- to 10-fold better than did the isogenic wild type. No effect of ski6-2 on expression of uncapped or normal mRNAs was found. Kinetics of luciferase synthesis and direct measurement of radiolabeled electroporated mRNA indicate that the primary effect of Ski6p was on efficiency of translation rather than on mRNA stability. Both ski6 and ski2 mutants show hypersensitivity to hygromycin, suggesting functional alteration of the translation apparatus. The ski6-2 mutant has normal amounts of 40S and 60S ribosomal subunits but accumulates a 38S particle containing 5′-truncated 25S rRNA but no 5.8S rRNA, apparently an incomplete or degraded 60S subunit. This suggests an abnormality in 60S subunit assembly. The ski6-2 mutation suppresses the poor expression of the poly(A)− viral mRNA in a strain deficient in the 60S ribosomal protein L4. Thus, a ski6 mutation bypasses the requirement of the poly(A) tail for translation, allowing better translation of non-poly(A) mRNA, including the L-A virus mRNA which lacks poly(A). We speculate that the derepressed translation of non-poly(A) mRNAs is due to abnormal (but full-size) 60S subunits. 相似文献

Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains are often host to several types of cytoplasmic double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) genomes, some of which are encapsidated by the L-A dsRNA product, an 86,000-dalton coat protein. Here we present the finding that nuclear recessive mutations in the NUC1 gene, which encodes the major nonspecific nuclease of yeast mitochondria, resulted in at least a 10-fold increase in amounts of the L-A dsRNA and its encoded coat protein. The effect of nuc1 mutations on L-A abundance was completely suppressed in strains that also hosted the killer-toxin-encoding M dsRNA. Both NUC1 and nuc1 strains containing the L-A genome exhibited an increase in coat protein abundance and a concomitant increase in L-A dsRNA when the cells were grown on a nonfermentable carbon source rather than on glucose, an effect independent of the increase in coat protein due to nuc1 mutations or to the absence of M. The increase in L-A expression in nuc1 strains was similar to that observed in strains with mutations in the nuclear gene encoding the most abundant outer mitochondrial membrane protein, porin. nuc1 mutations did not affect the level of porin in the mitochondrial outer membrane. Since the effect of mutations in nuc1 was to alter the copy number of the L-A coat protein genome rather than to change the level of the M toxin genome (as do mak and ski mutations), these mutations define a new class of nuclear genes affecting yeast dsRNA abundance. 相似文献

Viruses are intracellular parasites that must use the host machinery to multiply. Identification of the host factors that perform essential functions in viral replication is thus of crucial importance to the understanding of virus–host interactions. Here we describe Ded1p, a highly conserved DExD/H-box translation factor, as a possible host factor recruited by the yeast L-A double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) virus. We found that Ded1p interacts specifically and strongly with Gag, the L-A virus coat protein. Further analysis revealed that Ded1p interacts with the L-A virus in an RNA-independent manner and, as a result, L-A particles can be affinity purified via this interaction. The affinity-purified L-A particles are functional, as they are capable of synthesizing RNA in vitro. Critically, using purified L-A particles, we demonstrated that Ded1p specifically promotes L-A dsRNA replication by accelerating the rate of negative-strand RNA synthesis in vitro. In light of these data, we suggest that Ded1p may be a part of the long sought after activity shown to promote yeast viral dsRNA replication. This and the fact that Ded1p is also required for translating brome mosaic virus RNA2 in yeast thus raise the intriguing possibility that Ded1p is one of the key host factors favored by several evolutionarily related RNA viruses, including the human hepatitis C virus. 相似文献

Translation and M1 double-stranded RNA propagation: MAK18 = RPL41B and cycloheximide curing. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

MAK18 is one of nearly 30 chromosomal genes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae necessary for propagation of the killer toxin-encoding M1 double-stranded RNA satellite of the L-A double-stranded RNA virus. We have cloned and sequenced MAK18 and find that it is identical to RPL41B, one of the two genes encoding large ribosomal subunit protein L41. The mak18-1 mutant is deficient in 60S subunits, which we suggest results in a preferential decrease in translation of viral poly(A)-deficient mRNA. We have reexamined the curing of M1 by low concentrations of cycloheximide (G. R. Fink and C. A. Styles, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 69:2846-2849, 1972), which is known to act on ribosomal large subunit protein L29. We find that when M1 is supported by L-A proteins made from the poly(A)+ mRNA of a cDNA clone of L-A, cycloheximide does not decrease the M1 copy number, consistent with our hypothesis. 相似文献

The coat protein (Gag) of the double-stranded RNA virus L-A was previously shown to form a covalent bond with the cap structure of eukaryotic mRNAs. Here, we identify the linkage as a phosphoroimidazole bond between the alpha phosphate of the cap structure and a nitrogen in the Gag protein His-154 imidazole side chain. Mutations of His-154 abrogate the ability of Gag to bind to the cap structure, without affecting cap recognition, in vivo virus particle formation from an L-A cDNA clone, or in vitro specific binding and replication of plus-stranded single-stranded RNA. However, genetic analyses demonstrate that His-154 is essential for M1 satellite virus expression. 相似文献

The plus strand of the L-A double-stranded RNA virus of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has two large open reading frames, ORF1, which encodes the major coat protein, and ORF2, which encodes a single-stranded RNA-binding protein having a sequence diagnostic of viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerases. ORF2 is expressed only as a Gag-Pol-type fusion protein with ORF1. We have constructed a plasmid which expresses these proteins from the yeast PGK1 promoter. We show that this plasmid can support the replication of the killer toxin-encoding M1 satellite virus in the absence of an L-A double-stranded RNA helper virus itself. This requires ORF2 expression, providing a potential in vivo assay for the RNA polymerase and single-stranded RNA-binding activities of the fusion protein determined by ORF2. ORF1 expression, like a host ski- mutation, can suppress the usual requirement of M1 for the MAK11, MAK18, and MAK27 genes and allow a defective L-A (L-A-E) to support M1 replication. These results suggest that expression of ORF1 from the vector makes the cell a ski- phenocopy. Indeed, expression of ORF1 in a wild-type killer makes it a superkiller, suggesting that a target of the SKI antiviral system may be the major coat protein. 相似文献

Yeast controls propagation of the L-A dsRNA virus, and thus pathogenicity, by partially blocking translation of viral mRNA. L-A makes a Gag-Pol fusion protein by a-1 ribosomal frameshift, regulated by the host but critical for satellite RNA propagation. Discovery of the KEX proteases, by their requirement for killer toxin expression from a satellite dsRNA of L-A, led to the identification of mammalian prohormone processing proteases. 相似文献

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae SKI (superkiller) genes are repressors of replication of M, L-A, and L-BC double-stranded (ds) RNAs; ski strains have an increased M dsRNA copy number and, as a result, are cold-sensitive for growth at 8 degrees. Growth is normal, however, at higher temperatures. We have found a new cytoplasmic genetic element [D] (for disease) that makes M1 dsRNA-containing superkiller strains grow slowly at 30 degrees, not at all at 37 degrees, and only very poorly at 20 degrees. These growth defects require three factors: a chromosomal ski mutation, the presence of M1 dsRNA, and the presence of the new cytoplasmic factor, [D]. We have isolated mutants unable to maintain [D] (mad), at least one of which is due to mutation of a single chromosomal locus. Further, [D] can be cured by growth at 37-39 degrees. We present evidence that [D] is not M, L-A, L-BC or W dsRNAs or mitochondrial DNA, 2 mu DNA, or [psi], but [D] depends on L-A for its maintenance. We also show that [D] is distinct from [B], a cytoplasmic element that allows M1 dsRNA to be stably replicated and maintained in spite of defects in certain chromosomal MAK genes that would otherwise be necessary. [D] activity is blocked by the presence of another extrachromosomal element, called [DIN] (for [D] interference). [D] and [DIN] may be different natural variants of the same molecule. 相似文献
