The major herpes simplex virus DNA-binding protein, designated ICP8, binds tightly to single-stranded DNA and is required for replication of viral DNA. The sensitivity of the DNA-binding activity of ICP8 to the action of the sulfhydryl reagent N-ethylmaleimide has been examined by using nitrocellulose filter-binding and agarose gel electrophoresis assays. Incubation of ICP8 with N-ethylmaleimide results in a rapid loss of DNA-binding activity. Preincubation of ICP8 with single-stranded DNA markedly inhibits this loss of binding activity. These results imply that a free sulfhydryl group is involved in the interaction of ICP8 with single-stranded DNA and that this sulfhydryl group becomes less accessible to the environment upon binding. Agarose gel electrophoretic analysis of the binding interaction in the presence and absence of N-ethylmaleimide indicates that the cooperative binding exhibited by ICP8 is lost upon treatment with this reagent but that some residual noncooperative binding may remain. This last result was confirmed by equilibrium dialysis experiments with the 32P-labeled oligonucleotide dT10 and native and N-ethylmaleimide-treated ICP8. 相似文献

Protease digestion of the herpes simplex virus type 1 major single-strand DNA binding protein ICP8 showed that the cleavage patterns observed in the presence and absence of single-stranded DNA oligonucleotides are substantially different with protection of cleavage sites between amino acids 293 and 806 observed in the presence of oligonucleotide. Experiments using ICP8 modified with fluorescein-5-maleimide (FM) showed that the fluorescence signal exhibited increased susceptibility to antibody quenching and a significant decrease in polarization of the FM fluorescence was observed in the presence compared to the absence of oligonucleotide. Taken together, these results indicate that ICP8 undergoes a conformational change upon binding to single-stranded DNA. 相似文献

ICP8 is the major single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) binding protein of the herpes simplex virus type 1 and is required for the onset and maintenance of viral genomic replication. To identify regions responsible for the cooperative binding to ssDNA, several mutants of ICP8 have been characterized. Total reflection X-ray fluorescence experiments on the constructs confirmed the presence of one zinc atom per molecule. Comparative analysis of the mutants by electrophoretic mobility shift assays was done with oligonucleotides for which the number of bases is approximately that occluded by one protein molecule. The analysis indicated that neither removal of the 60-amino-acid C-terminal region nor Cys254Ser and Cys455Ser mutations qualitatively affect the intrinsic DNA binding ability of ICP8. The C-terminal deletion mutants, however, exhibit a total loss of cooperativity on longer ssDNA stretches. This behavior is only slightly modulated by the two-cysteine substitution. Circular dichroism experiments suggest a role for this C-terminal tail in protein stabilization as well as in intermolecular interactions. The results show that the cooperative nature of the ssDNA binding of ICP8 is localized in the 60-residue C-terminal region. Since the anchoring of a C- or N-terminal arm of one protein onto the adjacent one on the DNA strand has been reported for other ssDNA binding proteins, this appears to be the general structural mechanism responsible for the cooperative ssDNA binding by this class of protein. 相似文献

All organisms including animal viruses use specific proteins to bind single-stranded DNA rapidly in a non-sequence-specific, flexible, and cooperative manner during the DNA replication process. The crystal structure of a 60-residue C-terminal deletion construct of ICP8, the major single-stranded DNA-binding protein from herpes simplex virus-1, was determined at 3.0 A resolution. The structure reveals a novel fold, consisting of a large N-terminal domain (residues 9-1038) and a small C-terminal domain (residues 1049-1129). On the basis of the structure and the nearest neighbor interactions in the crystal, we have presented a model describing the site of single-stranded DNA binding and explaining the basis for cooperative binding. This model agrees with the beaded morphology observed in electron micrographs. 相似文献

Modification of the herpes simplex virus type 1 major DNA-binding protein (ICP8) with reagents and conditions specific for arginine, lysine, and tyrosine residues indicates that surface lysine and tyrosine residues are required for the interaction of this protein with single-stranded DNA. Modification of either of these two amino acids resulted in a loss and/or modification of binding activity as judged by nitrocellulose filter assays and gel shift. Modification specific for arginine residues did not affect binding within the limits of the assays used. Finally, quenching of the intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence of ICP8 in the presence of single-stranded DNA either suggests involvement of this amino acid in the binding reaction or reflects a conformational change in the protein upon binding. 相似文献

We report the structural features of a C-terminal deletion construct of the Epstein-Barr virus single-stranded DNA-binding protein, Balf2 (Balf2DeltaC), which like the herpes simplex virus I encoded protein, infected cell protein 8 (ICP8), binds non-sequence specifically to single-stranded DNA (ssDNA). ICP8, in the absence of ssDNA, assembles into long filamentous structures. Removal of the 60 C-terminal amino acids of ICP8 (ICP8DeltaC) prevents the formation of such filaments, whereas addition of circular ssDNA to ICP8DeltaC induces formation of "super helical" filaments. Balf2DeltaC, which we show is a zinc-binding protein, does not form these filaments under the same conditions but does bind ssDNA in a weakly cooperative manner. Further structural comparison of both proteins in solution by small-angle X-ray scattering shows proteins with similar molecular envelopes. One major difference is the tendency of Balf2DeltaC to dimerize on different surfaces to that used for oligomerization when binding to ssDNA, and this may have implications for the mechanism of replication initiation. 相似文献

The major single-stranded DNA-binding protein, ICP8, of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is one of seven virus-encoded polypeptides required for HSV-1 DNA replication. To investigate the role of ICP8 in viral DNA replication, we have examined the interaction of ICP8 with partial DNA duplexes and found that it can displace oligonucleotides annealed to single-stranded M13 DNA. In addition, ICP8 can melt small fragments of fully duplex DNA. Unlike a DNA helicase, ICP8-promoted strand displacement is ATP and Mg2+ independent and exhibits no directionality. It requires saturating amounts of ICP8 and is both efficient and highly cooperative. These properties make ICP8 suitable for a role in DNA replication in which ICP8 destabilizes duplex DNA during origin unwinding and replication fork movement. 相似文献

We have studied the major DNA-binding protein (ICP8) from herpes simplex virus type 1 to identify its DNA-binding site. Since we obtained our protein from a cell line carrying multiple chromosomally located copies of the ICP8 gene, we first analyzed this protein to assess its similarity to the corresponding viral protein. Our protein resembled the viral protein by molecular weight, response to antibody, preference for binding single-stranded DNA, and ability to lower the melting temperature of poly(dA-dT). To define the DNA-binding domain, we subjected the protein to limited trypsin digestion and separated the peptide products on a sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel. These fragments were then transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane, renatured in situ, and tested for their ability to bind DNA. From this assay, we identified four fragments which both bound DNA and exhibited the expected binding preference for single-stranded DNA. The sequence of the smallest of these fragments was determined and corresponds to a polypeptide spanning residues 300 to 849 in the intact protein. This peptide contains several regions which may be important for DNA binding based on sequence similarities in single-stranded DNA-binding proteins from other herpesviruses and, in one case, on a conserved sequence found in more distant procaryotic and eucaryotic proteins. 相似文献

The major herpes simplex virus DNA-binding protein, ICP8, was purified from cells infected with the herpes simplex virus type 1 temperature-sensitive strain tsHA1. tsHA1 ICP8 bound single-stranded DNA in filter binding assays carried out at room temperature and exhibited nonrandom binding to single-stranded bacteriophage fd DNA circles as determined by electron microscopy. The filter binding assay results and the apparent nucleotide spacing of the DNA complexed with protein were identical, within experimental error, to those observed with wild-type ICP8. Thermal inactivation assays, however, showed that the DNA-binding activity of tsHA1 ICP8 was 50% inactivated at approximately 39 degrees C as compared with 45 degrees C for the wild-type protein. Both wild-type and tsHA1 ICP8 were capable of stimulating viral DNA polymerase activity at permissive temperatures. The stimulatory effect of both proteins was lost at 39 degrees C. 相似文献

UL12 is a 5'- to 3'-exonuclease encoded by herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) which degrades single- and double-stranded DNA. UL12 and the single-strand DNA binding protein ICP8 mediate a strand exchange reaction. We found that ICP8 inhibited UL12 digestion of single-stranded DNA but stimulated digestion of double-stranded DNA threefold. The stimulatory effect of ICP8 was independent of a strand exchange reaction; furthermore, the effect was specific to ICP8, as it could not be reproduced by Escherichia coli single-stranded DNA binding protein. The effect of ICP8 on the rate of UL12 double-stranded DNA digestion is attributable to an increase in processivity in the presence of ICP8. 相似文献

The Herpes simplex virus type I origin-binding protein, OBP, is encoded by the UL9 gene. OBP binds the origin of DNA replication, oriS, in a cooperative and sequence-specific manner. OBP is also an ATP-dependent DNA helicase. We have recently shown that single-stranded oriS folds into a unique and evolutionarily conserved conformation, oriS*, which is stably bound by OBP. OriS* contains a stable hairpin formed by complementary base pairing between box I and box III in oriS. Here we show that OBP, in the presence of the single-stranded DNA-binding protein ICP8, can convert an 80-base pair double-stranded minimal oriS fragment to oriS* and form an OBP-oriS* complex. The formation of an OBP-oriS* complex requires hydrolysable ATP. We also demonstrate that OBP in the presence of ICP8 and ATP promotes slow but specific and complete unwinding of duplex minimal oriS. The possibility that the OBP-oriS* complex may serve as an assembly site for the herpes virus replisome is discussed. 相似文献

The herpes simplex virus, type I origin-binding protein, OBP, is a superfamily II DNA helicase encoded by the UL9 gene. OBP binds in a sequence-specific and cooperative way to the viral origin of replication oriS. OBP may unwind partially and introduce a hairpin into the double-stranded origin of replication. The formation of the novel conformation referred to as oriS* also requires the single-stranded DNA-binding protein, ICP8, and ATP hydrolysis. OBP forms a stable complex with oriS*. The hairpin in oriS* provides a site for sequence-specific attachment, and a single-stranded region triggers ATP hydrolysis. Here we use Escherichia coli exonuclease I to map the binding of the C-terminal domain of OBP to the hairpin and the helicase domains to the single-stranded tail. The helicase domains cover a stretch of 23 nucleotides of single-stranded DNA. Using streptavidin-coated magnetic beads, we show that OBP may bind two copies of double-stranded DNA (one biotin-labeled and the other one radioactively labeled) but only one copy of oriS*. It is the length of the single-stranded tail that determines the stoichiometry of OBP.DNA complexes. OBP interacts with the bases of the single-stranded tail, and ATP hydrolysis is triggered by position-specific interactions between OBP and bases in the single-stranded tail of oriS*. 相似文献

Functional interaction between the herpes simplex-1 DNA polymerase and UL42 protein 总被引:28,自引:0,他引:28
The herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) UL42 protein, one of seven herpes-encoded polypeptides that are required for the replication of the HSV-1 genome, is found in a 1:1 complex with the HSV-1 DNA polymerase (Crute, J. J., and Lehman, I. R. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 19266-19270). To obtain herpes DNA polymerase free of UL42 protein, we have cloned and overexpressed the Pol gene in a recombinant baculovirus vector and purified the recombinant DNA polymerase to near homogeneity. Replication of singly primed M13mp18 single-stranded DNA by the recombinant enzyme in the presence of the herpes encoded single-stranded DNA-binding protein ICP8 yields in addition to some full-length product a distribution of intermediate length products by a quasi-processive mode of deoxynucleotide polymerization. Addition of the purified UL42 protein results in completely processive polymerization and the generation of full-length products. Similar processivity is observed with the HSV-1 DNA polymerase purified from herpes-infected Vero cells. Processive DNA replication by the DNA polymerase isolated from HSV-1-infected Vero cells or the recombinant DNA polymerase-UL42 protein complex requires that the single-stranded DNA be coated with saturating levels of ICP8. ICP8 which binds single-stranded DNA in a highly cooperative manner is presumably required to melt out regions of secondary structure in the single-stranded DNA template, thereby potentiating the processivity enhancing action of the UL42 protein. 相似文献

The primary amino acid sequence of the major herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1)-infected cell polypeptide 8 (ICP8) deduced from the DNA sequence of the unique long open reading frame 29 (UL29 ORF) contains a potential metal-binding domain of the form Cys-X2-5-Cys-X2-15-A-X2-4-A where A may be either histidine or cysteine and X is any amino acid. The putative metal-binding sequence in ICP8 encompasses residues 499-512 as follows: C-N-L-C-T-F-D-T-R-H-A-C-V-H-. Atomic absorption analysis of several preparations of ICP8 indicates the presence of 1 mol of zinc/mol of protein. The zinc is resistant to removal by dialysis against concentrations of EDTA which deplete zinc from alcohol dehydrogenase. The bound zinc can be removed by reaction with the reversible sulfhydryl reagent p-hydroxymercurimethylsulfonate and the zinc-depleted protein transiently retains DNA binding activity. Digestion of both native and zinc-depleted ICP8 with V8 protease indicates that the bound zinc is required for the structural integrity of the protein. 相似文献

The interaction of the herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) major DNA-binding protein, infected-cell polypeptide 8 (ICP8), with nucleic acids has been examined by a filter-binding assay and electron microscopy. Filter-binding assays done over a broad pH range indicated that the optimum pH for the protein-DNA interaction is approximately 7.6. Heat inactivation studies showed that ICP8 is stable at temperatures up to 40 degrees C with a rapid loss of binding activity on incubation at 45 degrees C and above. Competition binding experiments have established the following relative affinities of ICP8 for the following nucleic acids: single-stranded HSV-1 DNA congruent to bacteriophage fd DNA greater than polyriboadenylate much greater than double-stranded HSV-1 DNA congruent to d(pCpT)5. Observation of negatively stained ICP8-single-stranded DNA complexes indicated that ICP8 binds along the length of the DNA in a regular repeating fashion. The average width of these complexes is 9.3 +/- 0.8 nms. Finally. Finally, addition of purified ICP8 to HSV-1 DNA polymerase reactions resulted in a stimulation of the viral polymerase activity. 相似文献

We have carried out solution equilibrium binding studies of ICP8, the major single-stranded DNA (ssDNA)-binding protein of herpes simplex virus type I, in order to determine the thermodynamic parameters for its interaction with ssDNA. Fluorescence anisotropy measurements of a 5'-fluorescein-labeled 32-mer oligonucleotide revealed that ICP8 formed a nucleoprotein filament on ssDNA with a binding site size of 10 nucleotides/ICP8 monomer, an association constant at 25 degrees C, K = 0.55 +/- 0.05 x 10(6) M(-1), and a cooperativity parameter, omega = 15 +/- 3. The equilibrium constant was largely independent of salt, deltalog(Komega)/deltalog([NaCl]) = -2.4 +/- 0.4. Comparison of these parameters with other ssDNA-binding proteins showed that ICP8 reacted with an unusual mechanism characterized by low cooperativity and weak binding. In addition, the reaction product was more stable at high salt concentrations, and fluorescence enhancement of etheno-ssDNA by ICP8 was higher than for other ssDNA-binding proteins. These last two characteristics are also found for protein-DNA complexes formed by recombinases in their active conformation. Given the proposed role of ICP8 in promoting strand transfer reactions, they suggest that ICP8 and recombinase proteins may catalyze homologous recombination by a similar mechanism. 相似文献

The major DNA-binding protein, or infected-cell protein 8 (ICP8), of herpes simplex virus is required for viral DNA synthesis and normal regulation of viral gene expression. Previous genetic analysis has indicated that the carboxyl-terminal 28 residues are the only portion of ICP8 capable of acting independently as a nuclear localization signal. In this study, we constructed a mutant virus (n11SV) in which the carboxyl-terminal 28 residues of ICP8 were replaced by the simian virus 40 large-T-antigen nuclear localization signal. The n11SV ICP8 localized into the nucleus and bound to single-stranded DNA in vitro as tightly as wild-type ICP8 did but was defective for viral DNA synthesis and viral growth in Vero cells. Two mutant ICP8 proteins (TL4 and TL5) containing amino-terminal alterations could complement the n11SV mutant but not ICP8 gene deletion mutants. Cell lines expressing TL4 and TL5 ICP8 were isolated, and in these cells, complementation of n11SV was observed at the levels of both viral DNA replication and viral growth. Therefore, complementation between n11SV ICP8 and TL4 or TL5 ICP8 reconstituted wild-type ICP8 functions. Our results demonstrate that (i) the carboxyl-terminal 28 residues of ICP8 are required for a function(s) involved in viral DNA replication, (ii) this function can be supplied in trans by another mutant ICP8, and (iii) ICP8 has multiple domains possessing different functions, and at least some of these functions can complement in trans. 相似文献

We have covalently modified the recA protein from Escherichia coli with the adenine nucleotide analog 5'-p-fluorosulfonylbenzoyladenosine (5'-FSBA). The rate at which the protein is modified shows a sigmoidal dependence on the concentration of 5'-FSBA suggesting that binding of the analog is characterized by positive cooperativity. Covalent modification of the protein results in irreversible inactivation of its single-stranded DNA-dependent ATPase activity such that 100% inactivation is achieved when 25% of the enzyme monomers have been modified. Attachment of 5'-FSBA is specific for the ATP-binding site of recA protein as judged by the following criteria: (i) attachment of the affinity label to the protein appears to saturate at 1 mol of 5'-FSBA/mol of protein; (ii) binding of 5'-FSBA to recA protein is inhibited by ATP and competitive inhibitors of its ATP hydrolytic activity, e.g. adenosine-5'-O-(thiotriphosphate), ADP, UTP, and GTP, but not by adenosine; (iii) attachment of 5'-FSBA to the protein occurs at a single site as determined by high pressure liquid chromatography peptide separation. Following trypsin digestion of recA protein that had been covalently modified with [3H]5'-FSBA we isolated a single labeled peptide (T31) containing the exclusive site of 5'-FSBA attachment. A secondary proteolytic digestion was performed on both 5'-FSBA modified T31 and unmodified T31 using Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease, and by comparison of the amino acid compositions of the resulting peptides we identified Tyr-264 as the exclusive site of 5'-FSBA attachment in recA protein. 相似文献

Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) ICP8 is a single-stranded DNA-binding protein that is necessary for viral DNA replication and exhibits recombinase activity in vitro. Alignment of the HSV-1 ICP8 amino acid sequence with ICP8 homologs from other herpesviruses revealed conserved aspartic acid (D) and glutamic acid (E) residues. Amino acid residue D1087 was conserved in every ICP8 homolog analyzed, indicating that it is likely critical for ICP8 function. We took a genetic approach to investigate the functions of the conserved ICP8 D and E residues in HSV-1 replication. The E1086A D1087A mutant form of ICP8 failed to support the replication of an ICP8 mutant virus in a complementation assay. E1086A D1087A mutant ICP8 bound DNA, albeit with reduced affinity, demonstrating that the protein is not globally misfolded. This mutant form of ICP8 was also recognized by a conformation-specific antibody, further indicating that its overall structure was intact. A recombinant virus expressing E1086A D1087A mutant ICP8 was defective in viral replication, viral DNA synthesis, and late gene expression in Vero cells. A class of enzymes called DDE recombinases utilize conserved D and E residues to coordinate divalent metal cations in their active sites. We investigated whether the conserved D and E residues in ICP8 were also required for binding metal cations and found that the E1086A D1087A mutant form of ICP8 exhibited altered divalent metal binding in an in vitro iron-induced cleavage assay. These results identify a novel divalent metal cation-binding site in ICP8 that is required for ICP8 functions during viral replication. 相似文献
