A DNA-relaxing enzyme was found to copurify along with herpes simplex virus type I (HSV-1)-induced DNA polymerase throughout a multistep purification scheme. Both the enzymes had similar sedimentation velocity, required high ionic strength for optimal enzymatic activities and showed time dependence of reaction. The DNA-relaxing enzyme however, differed from the HSV-1 DNA polymerase in its requirement for higher Mg2+ concentration, rATP and much broader pH dependence. Furthermore, phosphonoacetic acid, a potent inhibitor of HSV-1 DNA polymerase did not influence the DNA-relaxing activity even at a much higher concentration. On the other hand, the DNA-relaxing enzyme associated with the DNA polymerase may be specified by HSV-1 since IgG fraction of rabbit antisera against the virus-infected cells but not against the mock-infected cells strongly inhibited both the enzymatic activities. Thus, HSV-1-induced DNA polymerase which is known to be associated with a 3′ to 5′ exonuclease may also be associated with yet another enzymatic activity involved in DNA metabolism. 相似文献

Purified preparations of herpes simplex virus type 2 DNA polymerase made by many different laboratories always contain at least two polypeptides. The major one, of about 150,000 molecular weight, has been associated with the polymerase activity. The second protein, of about 54,000 molecular weight, which we previously designated ICSP 34, 35, has now been purified. The purified protein has been used to prepare antisera (both polyclonal rabbit serum and monoclonal antibodies). These reagents have been used to characterize the protein, to demonstrate its quite distinct map location from that of the DNA polymerase on the herpes simplex virus genome, and to demonstrate the close association between the two polypeptides. 相似文献

We have identified and partially purified a DNA-dependent ATPase that is present specifically in herpes simplex virus type 1-infected Vero cells. The enzyme which has a molecular weight of approximately 440,000 differs from the comparable host enzyme in its elution from phosphocellulose columns and in its nucleoside triphosphate specificity. The partially purified DNA-dependent ATPase is also a DNA helicase that couples ATP or GTP hydrolysis to the displacement of an oligonucleotide annealed to M13 single-stranded DNA. The enzyme requires a 3' single-stranded tail on the duplex substrate, suggesting that the polarity of unwinding is 5'----3' relative to the M13 DNA. The herpes specific DNA helicase may therefore translocate on the lagging strand in the semidiscontinuous replication of the herpes virus 1 genome. 相似文献

Herpesviruses are the second leading cause of human viral diseases. Herpes Simplex Virus types 1 and 2 and Varicella-zoster virus produce neurotropic infections such as cutaneous and genital herpes, chickenpox, and shingles. Infections of a lymphotropic nature are caused by cytomegalovirus, HSV-6, HSV-7, and Epstein-Barr virus producing lymphoma, carcinoma, and congenital abnormalities. Yet another series of serious health problems are posed by infections in immunocompromised individuals. Common therapies for herpes viral infections employ nucleoside analogs, such as Acyclovir, and target the viral DNA polymerase, essential for viral DNA replication. Although clinically useful, this class of drugs exhibits a narrow antiviral spectrum, and resistance to these agents is an emerging problem for disease management. A better understanding of herpes virus replication will help the development of new safe and effective broad spectrum anti-herpetic drugs that fill an unmet need. Here, we present the first crystal structure of a herpesvirus polymerase, the Herpes Simplex Virus type 1 DNA polymerase, at 2.7 A resolution. The structural similarity of this polymerase to other alpha polymerases has allowed us to construct high confidence models of a replication complex of the polymerase and of Acyclovir as a DNA chain terminator. We propose a novel inhibition mechanism in which a representative of a series of non-nucleosidic viral polymerase inhibitors, the 4-oxo-dihydroquinolines, binds at the polymerase active site interacting non-covalently with both the polymerase and the DNA duplex. 相似文献

Background: Previous studies have shown the diagnostic utility of qualitative detection of herpes simplex virus (HSV) DNA by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in cerebrospinal fluid samples (CSF) from patients with herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE).Objectives: To determine whether quantitation of HSV DNA in CSF could be useful for monitoring efficacy of antiviral therapy and provide prognostic indications.Study design: A quantitative PCR assay using an internal control for evaluation of PCR efficiency and detection of PCR inhibitors was developed and used for retrospective testing of 98 CSF samples from 26 patients with serologically diagnosed HSE during the period 1980–1995.Results: HSV DNA was detected in 36 CSF samples from 23 patients. PCR positivity was 100% for CSF samples collected within 10 days after onset, and 30.4 and 18.7% for samples collected 11–20 and 21–40 days later, respectively. The 3 PCR-negative patients had their first CSF collected 14, 16, and 28 days after onset, respectively. Three of 98 (3.1%) CSF samples were completely or partially inhibitory to PCR. Initial DNA levels were not significantly different in patients with HSE due to either primary or recurrent HSV infection. In addition, they were not related to severity of clinical symptoms nor were predictive of the outcome. A progressive decrease in viral DNA levels was observed both in patients who received acyclovir therapy and in a small number of untreated patients.Conclusions: This study: (i) confirms the high sensitivity of PCR for the diagnosis of HSE; (ii) emphasizes the need for an internal control of amplification to achieve maximal sensitivity and perform reliable quantitation of viral DNA; and (iii) suggests that CSF might not be the best specimen to investigate in studies of the natural history of HSE. 相似文献

Inhibition of herpes simplex virus DNA polymerase by purine ribonucleoside monophosphates 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Purine ribonucleoside monophosphates were found to inhibit chain elongation catalyzed by herpes simplex virus (HSV) DNA polymerase when DNA template-primer concentrations were rate-limiting. Inhibition was fully competitive with DNA template-primer during chain elongation; however, DNA polymerase-associated exonuclease activity was inhibited noncompetitively with respect to DNA. Combinations of 5'-GMP and phosphonoformate were kinetically mutually exclusive in dual inhibitor studies. Pyrimidine nucleoside monophosphates and deoxynucleoside monophosphates were less inhibitory than purine riboside monophosphates. The monophosphates of 9-beta-D-arabinofuranosyladenine, Virazole (1-beta-D-ribofuranosyl-1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxamide), 9-(2-hydroxyethoxymethyl)guanine, and 9-(1,3-dihydroxy-2-propoxymethyl)guanine exerted little or no inhibition. In contrast to HSV DNA polymerase, human DNA polymerase alpha was not inhibited by purine ribonucleoside monophosphates. These studies suggest the possibility of a physiological role of purine ribonucleoside monophosphates as regulators of herpesvirus DNA synthesis and a new approach to developing selective anti-herpesvirus compounds. 相似文献

Fifteen temperature-sensitive mutants of herpes simplex virus type 1 were studied with regard to the relationship between their ability to synthesize viral DNA and to induce viral DNA polymerase (DP) activity at permissive (34 C) and nonpermissive (39 C) temperatures. At 34 C, all mutants synthesized viral DNA, while at 39 C four mutants demonstrated a DNA+ phenotype, three were DNA+/-, and eight were DNA-. DNA+ mutants induced levels of DP activity similar to thhose of the wild-type virus at both temperatures, and DNA+/- mutants induced reduced levels of DP activity at 39 C but not at 34 C. Among the DNA- mutants three were DP+, two were DP+/-, and three showed reduced DP activity at 34 C with no DP activity at 39 C. DNA-, DP- mutants induced the synthesis of a temperature-sensitive DP as determined by in vivo studies. 相似文献

Herpes simplex virus-induced DNA polymerase purified by published methods was found to be contaminated with many others proteins, including virus structural proteins. Thus, DEAE-cellulose and phosphocellulose chromatography were used in combination with affinity chromatography to purify DNA polymerase from herpes simplex virus type 1- and type 2-infected cells. The purified enzyme retained unique features of the herpesvirus-induced DNA polymerase, including a requirement for high salt concentrations for maximal activity, a sensitivity to low phosphonoacetate concentrations, and the capacity to be neutralized by rabbit antiserum to herpesvirus-infected cells. By polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the purified DNA polymerase was associated with a virus-induced polypeptide of about 150,000 molecular weight. 相似文献

The analysis of the deduced amino acid sequence of the herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) DNA polymerase reported here suggests that the polymerase structure consists of domains carrying separate biological functions. The HSV-1 enzyme is known to possess 5'-3'-exonuclease (RNase H), 3'-5'-exonuclease, and DNA polymerase catalytic activities. Sequence analysis suggests an arrangement of these activities into distinct domains resembling the organization of Escherichia coli polymerase I. In order to more precisely define the structure and C-terminal limits of a putative catalytic domain responsible for the DNA polymerization activity of the HSV-1 enzyme, we have undertaken in vitro mutagenesis and computer modeling studies of the HSV-1 DNA polymerase gene. Sequence analysis predicts that the major DNA polymerization domain of the HSV-1 enzyme will be contained between residues 690 and 1100, and we present a three-dimensional model of this region, on the basis of the X-ray crystallographic structure of the E. coli polymerase I. Consistent with these structural and modeling studies, deletion analysis by in vitro mutagenesis of the HSV-1 DNA polymerase gene expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae has confirmed that certain amino acids from the C terminus (residues 1073 to 1144 and 1177 to 1235) can be deleted without destroying HSV-1 DNA polymerase catalytic activity and that the extreme N-terminal 227 residues are also not required for this activity. 相似文献

Properties of herpes simplex virus DNA polymerase and characterization of its associated exonuclease activity. 总被引:28,自引:0,他引:28

Herpes simplex virus (HSV) DNA polymerase was isolated on a large-scale from African green monkey kidney cells infected with HSV type 1 (HSV-1) strain Angelotti. After DNA-cellulose chromatography the enzyme showed a specific activity of 48,000 units/mg protein. Three major single polypeptides with molecular weights of 144,000, 74,000 and 29,000 were copurified with the enzyme activity at the DNA-cellulose ste. By its chromatographic behavior and by template studies, the HSV DNA polymerase activity was clearly distinguishable from cellular alpha, beta and gamma DNA polymerase activities. Two exonucleolytic activities were found in the DNA-cellulose enzyme preparation. The main exonucleolytic activity, which degraded both single-stranded and double-stranded DNA to deoxynucleoside 5'-monophosphates, was separated by subsequent velocity sedimentation. The remaining exonucleolytic activity was not separable from the HSV DNA polymerase by several chromatographic steps and by velocity sedimentation at high ionic strength. This novel exonuclease and HSV DNA polymerase were equally sensitive both to phosphonoacetic acid and Zn2+ ions, inhibitors of the viral polymerase. Similar to the 3'-to-5'-exonuclease of procaryotic DNA polymerases and mammalian DNA polymerase delta, the HSV-polymerase-associated exonuclease catalyzed the removal of 3'-terminal nucleotides from the primer/template as well as the template-dependent conversion of deoxynucleoside triphosphates to monophosphates. 相似文献

Novel interaction of aphidicolin with herpes simplex virus DNA polymerase and polymerase-associated exonuclease 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9

DNA polymerases induced by herpes simplex virus (HSV)-1 (KOS) and by three phosphonoformic acid-resistant strains were purified and the interaction of these enzymes with aphidicolin was examined. Incorporation of dATP, dCTP, and dTTP into activated DNA by parental enzyme was inhibited competitively by aphidicolin whereas dGTP incorporation was inhibited noncompetitively. Phosphonoformic acid-resistant enzymes were altered in KM and KI values for substrate and inhibitor, and two were inhibited by aphidicolin via the same modes as parental enzyme. However, aphidicolin competitively inhibited incorporation of dGTP by the third phosphonoformic acid-resistant enzyme under identical assay conditions. Two phosphonoformic acid-resistant enzymes were more sensitive than parental enzyme to inhibition by aphidicolin, indicating a close association between binding determinants for aphidicolin and for phosphonoformic acid on the virus DNA polymerase molecule. Aphidicolin inhibited hydrolysis of polynucleotide by HSV-1 DNA polymerase-associated nuclease. Inhibition was uncompetitive with DNA and the KI value (0.09 microM) was within the range of those calculated during nucleotide incorporation (0.071-0.74 microM). Therefore, aphidicolin may produce antiviral effects both by inhibition of deoxynucleotide incorporation and by deleterious effects resulting from inhibition of polymerase-associated nuclease. 相似文献

The structural and functional organization of the herpes simplex virus type I (HSV-1) DNA polymerase enzyme of strain ANG was studied by a combination of sequence and immunobiochemical analyses. Comparison of the HSV-1 ANG DNA polymerase sequence with those of pro- and eukaryotic DNA polymerases resulted in the allocation of eleven conserved regions within the HSV-1 DNA polymerase. From the analysis of all currently identified mutations of temperature-sensitive and drug-resistant HSV-1 DNA polymerase mutants as well as from the degree of conservancy observed, it could be deduced that the amino-acid residues 597–961, comprising the homologous sequence regions IV–IX, constitute the major structural components of the catalytic domain of the enzyme which should accommodate the sites for polymerizing and 3′-to-5′ exonucleolytic functions. Further insight into the structural organization was gained by the use of polyclonal antibodies responding specifically to the N-terminal, central and C-terminal polypeptide domains of the ANG polymerase. Each of the antisera was able to immunostain as well as to immunoprecipitate a viral polypeptide of 132 ± 5 kDa that corresponded well to the molecular mass of 136 kDa predicted from the coding sequences. Enzyme-binding and neutralization studies confirmed that both functions, polymerase and 3′-to-5′ exonuclease, are intimately related to each other, and revealed that, in addition to the sequences of the proposed catalytic domain, the very C-terminal sequences, except for amino-acid residues 1072–1146, are important for the catalytic functions of the enzyme, most likely effecting the binding to DNA. 相似文献

Reaction intermediates formed during the degradation of linear PM2, T5, and λ DNA by herpes simplex virus (HSV) DNase have been examined by agarose gel electrophoresis. Digestion of T5 DNA by HSV type 2 (HSV-2) DNase in the presence of Mn2+ (endonuclease only) gave rise to 6 major and 12 minor fragments. Some of the fragments produced correspond to those observed after cleavage of T5 DNA by the single-strand-specific S1 nuclease, indicating that the HSV DNase rapidly cleaves opposite a nick or gap in a duplex DNA molecule. In contrast, HSV DNase did not produce distinct fragments upon digestion of linear PM2 or λ DNA, which do not contain nicks. In the presence of Mg2+, when both endonuclease and exonuclease activities of the HSV DNase occur, most of the same distinct fragments from digestion of T5 DNA were observed. However, these fragments were then further degraded preferentially from the ends, presumably by the action of the exonuclease activity. Unit-length λ DNA, EcoRI restriction fragments of λ DNA, and linear PM2 DNA were also degraded from the ends by HSV DNase in the same manner. Previous studies have suggested that the HSV exonuclease degrades in the 3′ → 5′ direction. If this is correct, and since only 5′-monophosphate nucleosides are produced, then HSV DNase should “activate” DNA for DNA polymerase. However, unlike pancreatic DNase I, neither HSV-1 nor HSV-2 DNase, in the presence of Mg2+ or Mn2+, activated calf thymus DNA for HSV DNA polymerase. This suggests that HSV DNase degrades both strands of a linear double-stranded DNA molecule from the same end at about the same rate. That is, HSV DNase is apparently capable of degrading DNA strands in the 3′ → 5′ direction as well as in the 5′ → 3′ direction, yielding progressively smaller double-stranded molecules with flush ends. Except with minor differences, HSV-1 and HSV-2 DNases act in a similar manner. 相似文献

Mechanisms by which herpes simplex virus DNA polymerase limits translesion synthesis through abasic sites 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Results suggest a high probability that abasic (AP) sites occur at least once per herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) genome. The parameters that control the ability of HSV-1 DNA polymerase (pol) to engage in AP translesion synthesis (TLS) were examined because AP lesions could influence the completion and fidelity of viral DNA synthesis. Pre-steady-state kinetic experiments demonstrated that wildtype (WT) and exonuclease-deficient (exo-) pol could incorporate opposite an AP lesion, but full TLS required absence of exo function. Virtually all of the WT pol was bound at the exo site to AP-containing primer-templates (P/Ts) at equilibrium, and the pre-steady-state rate of excision by WT pol was higher on AP-containing than on matched DNA. However, several factors influencing polymerization work synergistically with exo activity to prevent HSV-1 pol from engaging in TLS. Although the pre-steady-state catalytic rate constant for insertion of dATP opposite a T or AP site was similar, ground-state-binding affinity of dATP for insertion opposite an AP site was reduced 3-9-fold. Single-turnover running-start experiments demonstrated a reduced proportion of P/Ts extended to the AP site compared to the preceding site during processive synthesis by WT or exo- pol. Only the exo- pol engaged in TLS, though inefficiently and without burst kinetics, suggesting a much slower rate-limiting step for extension beyond the AP site. 相似文献
