Hepatitis delta virus (HDV), a recently discovered infectious agent, participates in severe, often lethal forms of acute and chronic hepatitis and liver cirrhosis. Based on theoretical analysis of secondary structure, hydrophilicity and acrophilicity data, several regions of HDV antigen, presumably containing B-epitopes, have been revealed and the corresponding peptides have been synthesized by the solid phase method. All the peptides obtained reacted with the respective antipeptide rabbit sera. The peptides and their conjugates with BSA or KLH were used for ELISA with individual and pooled anti-HD-positive sera from patients with chronic delta hepatitis. The high antigenicity of the peptide 65-80 shows that one of the antigenically active regions of HDAg is situated between these amino acid residues and that the peptide may be used for detection of anti-HD antibodies in patients blood sera. 相似文献

The preS1 surface protein of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a key factor involved in initial viral entry into hepatocytes. It has been long postulated that an anti-HBV effect should be achievable using peptide fragments of the preS1. Recent reports demonstrated that several preS1-derived lipo-peptides in genotype D HBV exhibit nano to picomolar inhibitory activity against HBV infection. In this study, an acylated analog of a preS1 fragment, a 21-residue lipo-peptide (named 7524 BVS7) with a sequence of palmitoyl-GMGTNLSVPNPLGFFPDHQLDC-NH2, from genotype C HBV was produced base upon a previous structural study and was shown potently inhibits HBV infection with an IC(50) of approximately 20 nM. 相似文献

Dual topology of the hepatitis B virus large envelope protein: determinants influencing post-translational pre-S translocation 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The large (L) envelope protein of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) has the peculiar capacity to form two transmembrane topologies via an as yet uncharacterized process of partial post-translational translocation of its pre-S domain across membranes. In view of a current model that predicts an HBV-specific channel generated during virion envelope assembly to enable pre-S translocation, we have examined parameters influencing L topogenesis by using protease protection analysis of wild-type and mutant L proteins synthesized in transfected cells. We demonstrate that contrary to expectation, all determinants, thought to be responsible for channel formation, are dispensable for pre-S reorientation. In particular, we observed that this process does not require (i) the helper function of the HBV S (small) and M (middle) envelope proteins, (ii) covalent dimer formation of envelope chains, or (iii) either of the three amphipathic transmembrane segments of L. Rather, the most hydrophobic transmembrane segment 2 of L was identified as a vital topogenic determinant, essential and sufficient for post-translational pre-S translocation. Cell fractionation studies revealed that pre-S refolding and thus the dual topology of L is established at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane rather than at a post-ER compartment as originally supposed. Together our data provide evidence to suggest that the topological reorientation of L is facilitated by a host cell transmembrane transport machinery such as the ER translocon. 相似文献

We have synthesized the 24-41 fragment of the preS region of the hepatitis B (subtype ayw) envelope. The peptide was prepared by the solid phase synthesis on perfluoropoly-ethylene polymer grafted with polystyrene. The peptide chain was elongated from C-terminus using pentafluorophenyl- and p-nitrophenyl esters of Boc-amino acids. The peptide was cleaved off the solid phase by HBr in CF3COOH, purified by gel filtration, and, after conjugation with serum albumin (BSA), inoculated into mice. The resultant antibodies were shown to react with the peptide. The blood sera from patients with acute hepatitis B reacted with the peptide-BSA conjugates in the immunoenzymic solid phase assay. 相似文献

Summary The complete (encoding 119 aminon acids, aa) or partial (encoding the N-terminal 90 aa) preS1 region gene of hepatitis B virus (HBV) was fused to the 3-end of glutathione-S-transferase (GST) gene and expressed at 37 °C under the control of the inducible tac promoter in E. coli. The results showed that the fusion protein with the full length of preS1 was moderately expressed, about 10% of total cellular proteins, while the protein with the partial preS1 was highly expressed, about 33% of total cellular proteins but the half was degraded into the protein with about N-terminal 60 aa of preS1. Accordingly, GST fusion protein containing the N-terminal 56 aa of the preS1, which still encodes B-and T-cell epitopes and a hepatocyte receptor binding site, was expressed under the same induction conditions and was shown to be highly and stably expressed, about 37% of total cellular proteins. The fusion protein with the full length or N-terminal 56 aa of preS1 and the peptides were simply and successfully purified by affinity chromatography and were demonstrated to exhibit the antigenicity and immunogenicity of the preS1 antigen. 相似文献

The infectious particles of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis delta virus (HDV) are coated with the large, middle, and small envelope proteins encoded by HBV. While it is clear that the N-terminal pre-S1 domain of the large protein, which is exposed at the virion surface, is implicated in binding to a cellular receptor at viral entry, the role in infectivity of the envelope protein antigenic loop, also exposed to the virion surface and accessible to neutralizing antibodies, remains to be established. In the present study, mutations were created in the antigenic loop of the three envelope proteins, and the resulting mutants were evaluated for their capacity to assist in the maturation and infectivity of HDV. We observed that short internal combined deletions and insertions, affecting residues 109 to 133 in the antigenic loop, were tolerated for secretion of both subviral HBV particles and HDV virions. However, when assayed for infectivity on primary cultures of human hepatocytes or on the recently described HepaRG cell line, virions carrying deletions between residues 118 and 129 were defective. Single amino acid substitutions in this region revealed that Gly-119, Pro-120, Cys-121, Arg-122, and Cys-124 were instrumental in viral entry. These results demonstrate that in addition to a receptor-binding site previously identified in the pre-S1 domain of the L protein, a determinant of infectivity resides in the antigenic loop of HBV envelope proteins. 相似文献

The biosynthesis and topology of the large envelope protein (L protein) of hepadnaviruses was investigated using the duck hepatitis B virus (DHBV) model, which also allows the study of hepadnavirus morphogenesis in experimentally infected hepatocytes. Results from proteolysis of virus particles and from the analysis of topology and posttranslational modification of L chains synthesized in vivo or in a cell-free system both support the presence of a mixed population of L-protein molecules with their N-terminal pre-S domain located either inside or outside the virus particle. During L biosynthesis and DHBV morphogenesis, pre-S, together with the neighboring transmembrane domain (TM-I), initially remained cytoplasmically disposed and was translocated only posttranslationally. Delayed pre-S translocation into a post-endoplasmic reticulum compartment is also indicated by the absence of glycosylation at a modification-competent pre-S glycosylation site. Major features of L-protein biosynthesis and of the resulting dual topology appear to be conserved between avian and mammalian hepadnaviruses, supporting the model that pre-S domains function in part either as an internal matrix for capsid envelopment or externally as a ligand for cellular receptor binding. However, differences in the mechanisms controlling pre-S translocation were revealed by the results of mutational analyses identifying and characterizing cis-acting determinants in pre-S that delay its cotranslational translocation. Our data from DHBV demonstrate the negative influence of a cluster of positively charged amino acid residues next to TM-I, a motif that is conserved among the avian but absent from mammalian hepadnaviruses. Additional control elements, which are apparently shared between both virus groups and which may serve in chaperone binding, were mapped by deletion analysis in the central part of pre-S. 相似文献

A comparative analysis of amino acid sequence of the proteins VP1 of hepatitis A virus and poliovirus of the 1 type was carried out. A model is proposed of structural organization of VP1 of hepatitis A virus providing the presence of a bilayer core formed by 8 antiparallel beta-strands. Probable candidates for surface antigenic determinants are the amino acid sequences located in unordered fragments of the polypeptide chain (residues 101-106 and 115-125), and alpha-helical region (residues 127-135). 相似文献

The lack of an appropriate in vitro infection system for the major human pathogen hepatitis B virus (HBV) has prevented a molecular understanding of the early infection events of HBV. We used the novel HBV-infectible cell line HepaRG and primary human hepatocytes to investigate the interference of infection by HBV envelope protein-derived peptides. We found that a peptide consisting of the authentically myristoylated N-terminal 47 amino acids of the pre-S1 domain of the large viral envelope protein (L protein) specifically prevented HBV infection, with a 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 8 nM. The replacement of myristic acid with other hydrophobic moieties resulted in changes in the inhibitory activity, most notably by a decrease in the IC50 to picomolar concentrations for longer unbranched fatty acids. The obstruction of HepaRG cell susceptibility to HBV infection after short preincubation times with the peptides suggested that the peptides efficiently target and inactivate a receptor at the hepatocyte surface. Our data both shed light on the molecular mechanism of HBV entry into hepatocytes and provide a basis for the development of potent hepadnaviral entry inhibitors as a novel therapeutic concept for the treatment of hepatitis Beta. 相似文献

Purification and structural analysis of the hepatitis B virus preS1 expressed from Escherichia coli 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Maeng CY Oh MS Park IH Hong HJ 《Biochemical and biophysical research communications》2001,282(3):787-792
The preS1 of hepatitis B virus (HBV) is located at the outermost part of the envelope protein and possesses several functionally important regions such as hepatocyte receptor-binding site and virus-neutralizing epitopes. As the first step to understand the structure-function relationship for the preS1 antigen, we have purified the preS1 and performed its structural characterization by circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy. The preS1 was purified to near homogeneity from bacterially expressed glutathione S-transferase (GST)-preS1 fusion protein by two-step purification, affinity chromatography on glutathione-agarose column, and cation-exchange chromatography on Mono S column. The CD analysis showed that the purified preS1, which was largely unstructured in aqueous solution, acquired a significant (16%) alpha-helical structure when analyzed in 50% trifluoroethanol or 20 mM SDS. The results suggest that the preS1 assumes a mainly unstructured conformation and may form induced secondary structures upon binding to target proteins or under hydrophobic environment. 相似文献

Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) particles are coated with the envelope proteins (large, middle, and small) of the hepatitis B virus (HBV). The large protein bears an infectivity determinant in its pre-S1 domain, whereas a second determinant has been proposed to map to the cysteine-rich antigenic loop (AGL) within the S domain of all three envelope proteins (G. Abou Jaoudé and C. Sureau, J. Virol. 79:10460-10466, 2006). In this study, the AGL cysteines were substituted by serine or alanine, and the mutants were evaluated for their function at viral entry using HDV particles and susceptible HepaRG cells. Mutations of cysteines 121 to 149 were tolerant of the production of HDV virions. The mutations altered the structure and antigenicity of the conserved “a” determinant of the AGL, as measured by conformation-sensitive antibodies, and they created a block to infectivity. Substitution of Cys-90 or Cys-221, located outside of the AGL, had no impact on the “a” determinant or viral entry. Furthermore, infectivity was maintained when the AGL CxxC motif at position 121 to 124 was modified by single-amino-acid deletion or insertion, suggesting that cysteines 121 and 124 are not catalyzers of thiol/disulfide exchange. However, membrane-impermeable inhibitors of thiol/disulfide isomerazation demonstrated a dose-dependent inhibition of infection in an in vitro assay when applied to the virus prior to inoculation or during the virus-cell interaction period. Overall, the results demonstrate the essential role of the AGL cysteines at viral entry, and they establish a correlation between the cysteine disulfide network, the conformation of the “a” determinant, and infectivity. 相似文献

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) core protein is a putative nucleocapsid protein with a number of regulatory functions. In tissue culture cells, HCV core protein is mainly located at the endoplasmic reticulum as well as mitochondria and lipid droplets within the cytoplasm. However, it is also detected in the nucleus in some cells. To elucidate the mechanisms by which cellular trafficking of the protein is controlled, we performed subcellular fractionation experiments and used confocal microscopy to examine the distribution of heterologously expressed fusion proteins involving various deletions and point mutations of the HCV core combined with green fluorescent proteins. We demonstrated that a region spanning amino acids 112 to 152 can mediate association of the core protein not only with the ER but also with the mitochondrial outer membrane. This region contains an 18-amino-acid motif which is predicted to form an amphipathic alpha-helix structure. With regard to the nuclear targeting of the core protein, we identified a novel bipartite nuclear localization signal, which requires two out of three basic-residue clusters for efficient nuclear translocation, possibly by occupying binding sites on importin-alpha. Differences in the cellular trafficking of HCV core protein, achieved and maintained by multiple targeting functions as mentioned above, may in part regulate the diverse range of biological roles of the core protein. 相似文献
