ICP34.5, encoded by herpes simplex virus 1, is a protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) regulatory subunit that mediates dephosphorylation of the alpha subunit of translation initiation factor 2 (eIF2alpha). However, the mechanism of its action remains poorly understood. Here, we show that amino acid substitutions in the arginine-rich motif have differential effects on ICP34.5 activity. The phenotypes parallel with viral protein synthesis and cytopathic effects in virus infected cells. Besides the consensus PP1 binding motif, the Arg-motif appears to enhance the interaction between ICP34.5 and PP1. These results suggest that concerted action between the PP1 binding domain and the effector domain of ICP34.5 is crucial for eIF2alpha dephosphorylation and viral protein synthesis.  相似文献

As a large double-stranded DNA virus, herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) assembles capsids in the nucleus where the viral particles exit by budding through the inner nuclear membrane. Although a number of viral and host proteins are involved, the machinery of viral egress is not well understood. In a search for host interacting proteins of ICP34.5, which is a virulence factor of HSV-1, we identified a cellular protein, p32 (gC1qR/HABP1), by mass spectrophotometer analysis. When expressed, ICP34.5 associated with p32 in mammalian cells. Upon HSV-1 infection, p32 was recruited to the inner nuclear membrane by ICP34.5, which paralleled the phosphorylation and rearrangement of nuclear lamina. Knockdown of p32 in HSV-1-infected cells significantly reduced the production of cell-free viruses, suggesting that p32 is a mediator of HSV-1 nuclear egress. These observations suggest that the interaction between HSV-1 ICP34.5 and p32 leads to the disintegration of nuclear lamina and facilitates the nuclear egress of HSV-1 particles.  相似文献

The goal of this report was to determine if the region of the LAT gene that is colinear with ICP34.5 (kb 6.2 to 7.1 of LAT) is involved in spontaneous reactivation of herpes simplex virus type 1. We inserted one copy of the ICP34.5 gene into the unique long region of a herpes simplex virus type 1 (strain McKrae) mutant lacking both copies of ICP34.5 (one in each viral long repeat) and the corresponding 917-nucleotide colinear portion of LAT (kb 6.2 to 7.1). Rabbits were ocularly infected with this mutant, and spontaneous reactivation relative to that for the wild-type virus and the original mutant was measured. As we previously reported, the original ICP34.5-deleted virus (d34.5) was significantly impaired for spontaneous reactivation and virulence (G. C. Perng, R. L. Thompson, N. M. Sawtell, W. E. Taylor, S. M. Slanina, H. Ghiasi, R. Kaiwar, A. B. Nesburn, and S. L. Wechsler, J. Virol. 69:3033-3041, 1995). In contrast, we report here that restoration of one copy of ICP34.5 at a distant location completely restored the wild-type level of in vivo spontaneous reactivation, despite retention of the deletion in LAT (spontaneous reactivation rate = 0.3 to 1.4% for the ICP34.5 deletion mutant, 7.7 to 19.6% for the wild type, and 9 to 16.1% for virus with one copy of ICP34.5). Thus, the 917-nucleotide region of LAT from kb 6.2 to 7.1 was not involved in the LAT function required for wild-type spontaneous reactivation. We also found that restoration of a single ICP34.5 gene in a novel location did not restore wild-type virulence (rabbit death rate = 0% [0 of 15] for the original ICP34.5 deletion mutant, 8% [2 of 24] for the single-copy IPC34.5 virus, and 52% [14 of 27] for wild-type virus; P < 0.001 for one versus two copies of ICP34.5). It is likely that either two gene doses of ICP34.5 or its location in the long repeat is essential for full functionality of ICP34.5's virulence function. Furthermore, the ability of the single-copy ICP34.5 virus to reactivate at wild-type levels despite being significantly less virulent than wild-type virus separates the spontaneous reactivation phenotype from the virulence phenotype.  相似文献

The ICP34.5 protein facilitates herpes simplex virus replication by binding and activating protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) by means of a very conserved C-terminal GADD34-like region. Natural variants of the ICP34.5 differing in the number of arginines in an Arg-rich cluster at the N terminus and the number of Pro-Ala-Thr repeats in the central bridge region of the protein were cloned as fusion proteins with a reporter peptide (c-Myc or hrGFP) at the C terminus. The natural variants were obtained from strains differing in passage history, tissue culture behavior, and neuroinvasive disease potential. In transfected cells, these variants localized to different subcellular compartments. The N-terminal Arg-rich cluster acted as a cellular localization signal for discrete regions of the nucleus and cytoplasm, but the ultimate location of ICP34.5 was determined by the number of Pro-Ala-Thr repeats in the central bridge region. PP1 colocalized with the ICP34.5 variant in cells expressing the ICP34.5. The ICP34.5-mediated, herpes simplex virus strain-dependent differences in the modulation of PP1 location and function may be responsible for the strain-associated differences in tissue culture behavior and virulence of the virus.  相似文献

Autophagy is postulated to play a role in antiviral innate immunity. However, it is unknown whether viral evasion of autophagy is important in disease pathogenesis. Here we show that the herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1)-encoded neurovirulence protein ICP34.5 binds to the mammalian autophagy protein Beclin 1 and inhibits its autophagy function. A mutant HSV-1 virus lacking the Beclin 1-binding domain of ICP34.5 fails to inhibit autophagy in neurons and demonstrates impaired ability to cause lethal encephalitis in mice. The neurovirulence of this Beclin 1-binding mutant virus is restored in pkr(-/-) mice. Thus, ICP34.5-mediated antagonism of the autophagy function of Beclin 1 is essential for viral neurovirulence, and the antiviral signaling molecule PKR lies genetically upstream of Beclin 1 in host defense against HSV-1. Our findings suggest that autophagy inhibition is a novel molecular mechanism by which viruses evade innate immunity and cause fatal disease.  相似文献

The ability of certain strains of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) to cause encephalitis or neuroinvasive disease in the mouse upon peripheral infection is dependent on a combination of activities of specific forms of viral proteins. The importance of specific variants of ICP34.5 to neuroinvasive disease potential and its correlation with small-plaque production, inefficient glycoprotein processing, and virus release were suggested by comparison of ICP34.5 from the SP7 virus, originally obtained from the brain of a neonate with disseminated disease, and the tissue culture-passaged progeny of SP7 (SLP5 and SLP10) and the KOS321 virus. SLP5, SLP10, and KOS321 are attenuated and exhibit a large-plaque phenotype, including efficient glycoprotein processing and viral release. We show that expression of the KOS321 ICP34.5 protein in cells infected with SP7 or ICP34.5 deletion mutants promotes large plaque formation and efficient viral glycoprotein processing, while expression of the SP7 ICP34.5 protein decreases efficiency of viral glycoprotein processing. In addition, a recombinant virus, 4hS1, with the SP7 ICP34.5 gene replacing the KOS321-like ICP34.5 gene in the SLP10a background, rescues the small-plaque phenotype and neuroinvasive disease. The major difference in the ICP34.5 gene product is the number of Pro-Ala-Thr repeats in the middle region of the protein, with 18 for SP7 and 3 for KOS321. Strain-dependent differences in the ICP34.5 protein can therefore alter the tissue culture behavior and the virulence of HSV-1.  相似文献

The herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) ICP34.5 gene is a neurovirulence gene in mice. In addition, some ICP34.5 mutants have been reported to have a reduced efficiency of induced reactivation as measured by in vitro explantation of latently infected mouse ganglia. However, since spontaneous reactivation is almost nonexistent in mice, nothing has been reported on the effect of ICP34.5 mutants on spontaneous reactivation in vivo. To examine this, we have deleted both copies of the ICP34.5 neurovirulence gene from a strain of HSV-1 (McKrae) that has a high spontaneous reactivation rate in rabbits and used this mutant to infect rabbit eyes. All rabbits infected with the ICP34.5 mutant virus (d34.5) survived, even at challenge doses greater than 4 x 10(7) PFU per eye. In contrast, a 200-fold-lower challenge dose of 2 x 10(5) PFU per eye was lethal for approximately 50% of rabbits infected with either the wild-type McKrae parental virus or a rescued ICP34.5 mutant in which both copies of the ICP34.5 gene were restored. In mice, the 50% lethal dose of the ICP34.5 mutant was over 10(6) PFU, compared with a value of less than 10 PFU for the rescued virus. The ICP34.5 mutant was restricted for replication in rabbit and mouse eyes and mouse trigeminal ganglia in vivo. The spontaneous reactivation rate in rabbits for the mutant was 1.4% as determined by culturing tear films for the presence of reactivated virus. This was more than 10-fold lower than the spontaneous reactivation rate determined for the rescued virus (19.6%) and was highly significant (P < 0.0001, Fisher exact test). Southern analysis confirmed that the reactivated virus retained both copies of the ICP34.5 deletion. Thus, this report demonstrates that (i) the ICP34.5 gene, known to be a neurovirulence gene in mice, is also important for virulence in rabbits and (ii) in vivo spontaneous reactivation of HSV-1 in the rabbit ocular model, although reduced, can occur in the absence of the ICP34.5 gene.  相似文献

In animal models of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) infection, ICP34.5-null viruses are avirulent and also fail to grow in a variety of cultured cells due to their inability to prevent RNA-dependent protein kinase (PKR)-mediated inhibition of protein synthesis. We show here that the inability of ICP34.5 mutants to grow in vitro is due specifically to the accumulation of phosphorylated eIF2 alpha. Mutations suppressing the in vitro phenotype of ICP34.5-null mutants have been described which map to the unique short region of the HSV-1 genome, resulting in dysregulated expression of the US11 gene. Despite the inability of the suppressor mutation to suppress the avirulent phenotype of the ICP34.5-null parental virus following intracranial inoculation, the suppressor mutation enhanced virus growth in the cornea, trigeminal ganglia, and periocular skin following corneal infection compared to that with the ICP34.5-null virus. The phosphorylation state of eIF2 alpha following in vitro infection with the suppressor virus was examined to determine if in vivo differences could be attributed to differential regulation of eIF2 alpha phosphorylation. The suppressor virus prevented accumulation of phosphorylated eIF2 alpha, while the wild-type virus substantially reduced eIF2 alpha phosphorylation levels. These data suggest that US11 functions as a PKR antagonist in vivo, although its activity may be modulated by tissue-specific differences in translation regulation.  相似文献

Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) immediate-early protein ICP0 localizes to cellular structures known as promyelocytic leukemia protein (PML) nuclear bodies or ND10 and disrupts their integrity by inducing the degradation of PML. There are six PML isoforms with different C-terminal regions in ND10, of which PML isoform I (PML.I) is the most abundant. Depletion of all PML isoforms increases the plaque formation efficiency of ICP0-null mutant HSV-1, and reconstitution of expression of PML.I and PML.II partially reverses this improved replication. ICP0 also induces widespread degradation of SUMO-conjugated proteins during HSV-1 infection, and this activity is linked to its ability to counteract cellular intrinsic antiviral resistance. All PML isoforms are highly SUMO modified, and all such modified forms are sensitive to ICP0-mediated degradation. However, in contrast to the situation with the other isoforms, ICP0 also targets PML.I that is not modified by SUMO, and PML in general is degraded more rapidly than the bulk of other SUMO-modified proteins. We report here that ICP0 interacts with PML.I in both yeast two-hybrid and coimmunoprecipitation assays. This interaction is dependent on PML.I isoform-specific sequences and the N-terminal half of ICP0 and is required for SUMO-modification-independent degradation of PML.I by ICP0. Degradation of the other PML isoforms by ICP0 was less efficient in cells specifically depleted of PML.I. Therefore, ICP0 has two distinct mechanisms of targeting PML: one dependent on SUMO modification and the other via SUMO-independent interaction with PML.I. We conclude that the ICP0-PML.I interaction reflects a countermeasure to PML-related antiviral restriction.  相似文献

ICP0 and ICP4 are immediate-early regulatory proteins of herpes simplex virus type 1. Previous studies by Knipe and Smith demonstrated that these two proteins are characteristically observed in the nuclei of wild-type virus-infected cells but predominantly in the cytoplasms of cells infected with several ICP4 temperature-sensitive (ts) mutant viruses at the nonpermissive temperature (NPT) (D. M. Knipe and J. L. Smith, Mol. Cell. Biol. 6:2371-2381, 1986). Consistent with this observation, it has been shown previously that ICP0 is present predominantly in the cytoplasms of cells infected with an ICP4 null mutant virus (n12) at high multiplicities of infection and that the level of ICP27, a third viral regulatory protein, plays an important role in determining the intracellular localization of ICP0 (Z. Zhu, W. Cai, and P. A. Schaffer, J. Virol. 68:3027-3040, 1994). To address whether the cytoplasmic localization of ICP0 is a common feature of cells infected with all ICP4 mutant viruses or whether mutant ICP4 polypeptides, together with ICP27, determine the intracellular localization of ICP0, we used double-staining immunofluorescence tests to examine the intracellular staining patterns of ICP0 and ICP4 in cells infected with an extensive series of ICP4 mutant viruses. In these tests, compared with the localization pattern of ICP0 in wild-type virus-infected cells, more ICP0 was detected in the cytoplasms of cells infected with all ICP4 mutants tested at high multiplicities of infection. Each of the mutant forms of ICP4 exhibiting predominantly cytoplasmic staining contains both the nuclear localization signal and the previously mapped ICP27-responsive region (Z. Zhu and P. A. Schaffer, J. Virol. 69:49-59, 1995). No correlation between the intracellular staining patterns of ICP0 and mutant forms of ICP4 was demonstrated, suggesting that mutant ICP4 polypeptides per se are not responsible for retention of ICP0 in the cytoplasm. This observation was confirmed in studies of cells cotransfected with plasmids expressing ICP0 and mutant forms of ICP4, in which the staining pattern of ICP0 was not changed in the presence of mutant ICP4 proteins. Studies of cells infected at low multiplicities with a variety of ICP4 ts mutant viruses at the NPT showed that both ICP0 and ts forms of ICP4 were localized predominantly within the nucleus. These observations are a further indication that the aberrant localization of the ts forms of ICP4 at the NPT is not a direct result of specific mutations in the ICP4 gene. In the final series of tests, the localization of ICP0 in cells infected with a double-mutant virus unable to express either ICP4 or ICP27 was examined. In these tests, ICP0 was detected exclusively in the nuclei of Vero cells but in both the nuclei and the cytoplasms of ICP27-expressing cells infected with the double mutant. These results demonstrate that ICP27, rather than the absence of functional ICP4, is responsible for the cytoplasmic localization of ICP0 in ICP4 mutant virus-infected cells. Taken together, these findings demonstrate that the aberrant localization of ICP0 and certain mutant forms of ICP4 in cells infected with ICP4 mutant viruses is mediated by high levels of ICP27 resulting from the inability of mutant forms of ICP4 to repress the expression of ICP27.  相似文献

Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) immediate-early protein ICP0 is a general activator of viral gene expression which stimulates the initiation of lytic infection and reactivation from quiescence and latency. The importance of ICP0 to the biology of HSV-1 infection has stimulated interest in its mode of action. Previous studies have reported its interactions with other viral regulatory molecules, with the translation apparatus, with cyclin D3, and with a ubiquitin-specific protease. It has been demonstrated that ICP0 is able to induce the proteasome-dependent degradation of a number of cellular proteins, including components of centromeres and small nuclear substructures known as ND10 or PML nuclear bodies. ICP0 has a RING finger zinc-binding domain which is essential for its functions. In view of several recent examples of other RING finger proteins which modulate the stability of specific target proteins by acting as components of E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes, this study has explored whether ICP0 might operate via a similar mechanism. Evidence that the foci of accumulated ICP0 in transfected and infected cells contain enhanced levels of conjugated ubiquitin is presented. This effect was dependent on the RING finger region of ICP0, and comparison of the properties of a number of ICP0 mutants revealed an excellent correlation between previously established functions of ICP0 and its ability to induce concentrations of colocalizing conjugated ubiquitin. These results strongly support the hypothesis that a major factor in the mechanism by which ICP0 influences virus infection is its ability to induce the degradation of specific cellular targets by interaction with the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway.  相似文献

The herpes simplex virus (HSV) virulence factor ICP34.5, the mouse myeloid differentiation protein MyD116, and the hamster growth arrest and DNA damage protein GADD34 share a 63-amino-acid carboxyl domain which has significant homologies to otherwise divergent proteins. Here we report that both ICP34.5 and its cellular homolog MyD116 complex through the conserved domain with proliferating cell nuclear antigen. In addition, HSV infection induces a novel 70-kDa cellular protein detectable by antisera to both ICP34.5 and GADD34, demonstrating that this novel protein possesses homology with the 63-amino-acid conserved domain.  相似文献

Herpes simplex virus type 1 immediate early protein ICP0 influences virus infection by inducing the degradation of specific cellular proteins via a mechanism requiring its RING finger and the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Many RING finger proteins, by virtue of their RING finger domain, interact with E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes and act as a component of an E3 ubiquitin ligase. We have recently shown that ICP0 induces the accumulation of colocalizing, conjugated ubiquitin, suggesting that ICP0 can act as or contribute to an E3 ubiquitin ligase. In this report we demonstrate that the ICP0-related RING finger proteins encoded by other alphaherpesviruses also induce colocalizing, conjugated ubiquitin, thereby suggesting that they act by similar biochemical mechanisms.  相似文献

Autophagy is now known to be an essential component of host innate and adaptive immunity. Several herpesviruses have developed various strategies to evade this antiviral host defense. Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) blocks autophagy in fibroblasts and in neurons, and the ICP34.5 protein is important for the resistance of HSV-1 to autophagy because of its interaction with the autophagy machinery protein Beclin 1. ICP34.5 also counteracts the shutoff of protein synthesis mediated by the double-stranded RNA (dsRNA)-dependent protein kinase PKR by inhibiting phosphorylation of the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2α (eIF2α) in the PKR/eIF2α signaling pathway. Us11 is a late gene product of HSV-1, which is also able to preclude the host shutoff by direct inhibition of PKR. In the present study, we unveil a previously uncharacterized function of Us11 by demonstrating its antiautophagic activity. We show that the expression of Us11 is able to block autophagy and autophagosome formation in both HeLa cells and fibroblasts. Furthermore, immediate-early expression of Us11 by an ICP34.5 deletion mutant virus is sufficient to render the cells resistant to PKR-induced and virus-induced autophagy. PKR expression and the PKR binding domain of Us11 are required for the antiautophagic activity of Us11. However, unlike ICP34.5, Us11 did not interact with Beclin 1. We suggest that the inhibition of autophagy observed in cells infected with HSV-1 results from the activity of not only ICP34.5 on Beclin 1 but also Us11 by direct interaction with PKR.  相似文献
