Disulfide bonds were found to link the nonglycosylated envelope protein VP-2/M (19 kDa), encoded by open reading frame 6, and the major envelope glycoprotein VP-3 (25 to 42 kDa), encoded by open reading frame 5, of lactate dehydrogenase-elevating virus (LDV). The two proteins comigrated in a complex of 45 to 55 kDa when the virion proteins were electrophoresed under nonreducing conditions but dissociated under reducing conditions. Furthermore, VP-2/M was quantitatively precipitated along with VP-3 in this complex by three neutralizing monoclonal antibodies to VP-3. The infectivity of LDV was rapidly and irreversibly lost during incubation with 5 to 10 mM dithiothreitol (> 99% in 6 h at room temperature), which is known to reduce disulfide bonds. LDV inactivation correlated with dissociation of VP-2/M and VP-3. The results suggest that disulfide bonds between VP-2/M and VP-3 are important for LDV infectivity. Hydrophobic moment analyses of the predicted proteins suggest that VP-2/M and VP-3 both possess three adjacent transmembrane segments and only very short ectodomains (10 and 32 amino acids, respectively) with one and two cysteines, respectively. Inactivation of LDV by dithiothreitol and dissociation of the two envelope proteins were not associated with alterations in LDV's density or sedimentation coefficient. 相似文献

The composition and structure of the mouse hepatitis virus (MHV)-specific RNA in actinomycin D-treated, infected L-2 cells were studied. SEven virus-specific RNA species with molecular weights of 0.6 X 10(6), 0.9 X 10(6), 1.2 X 10(6), 1.5 X 10(6), 3.0 X 10(6), 4.0 X 10(6), and 5.4 X 10(6) (equivalent to the viral genome) were detected. T1 oligonucleotide fingerprinting studies suggested that the sequences of each RNA species were totally included within the next large RNa species. The oligonucleotides of each RNA species were mapped on the 60S RNA genome of the virus. Each RNA species contained the oligonucleotides starting from the 3' end of the genome and extending continuously for various lengths in the 3' leads to 5' direction. All of the viral RNA species contained a polyadenylate stretch of 100 to 130 nucleotides and probably identical sequences immediately next to the polyadenylate. These data suggested that the virus-specific RNAs are mRNA's and have a stairlike structure similar to that of infectious bronchitis virus, an avian coronavirus. A proposal is presented, based on the mRNA structure, for the designation of the genes on the MHV genome. Using this proposal, the sequence differences between A59, a weakly pathogenic strain, and MHV-3, a strongly hepatotropic strain, were localized primarily in mRNA's 1 and 3, corresponding t genes A and C. 相似文献

Infectious pancreatic necrosis virus of fish, infectious bursal disease virus of chickens, Tellina virus and oyster virus of bivalve molluscs, and drosophila X virus of Drosophila melanogaster are naked icosahedral viruses with an electron microscopic diameter of 58 to 60 nm. The genome of each of these viruses consists of two segments of double-stranded RNA (molecular weight range between 2.6 x 10(6) and 2.2 x 10(6), and the virion, capsid proteins fall into three size class categories (large, medium, and small; ranging from 100,000 to 27,000) as determined by polyacrylamide slab gel electrophoresis. The hydrodynamic properties of the five viruses are similar as determined by analytical ultracentrifugation and laser quasi-elastic, light-scattering spectroscopy. The calculated particle weights range between 55 x 10(6) and 81 x 10(6). Tryptic peptide comparisons of 125I-labeled virion proteins showed that five viruses are different from each other, although there was considerable overlap in the peptide maps of the three aquatic viruses, indicting a degree of relatedness. Cross-neutralization tests indicated that drosophila X, infectious pancreatic necrosis, and infectious bursal disease viruses were different from each other and from oyster and Tellina viruses. The same test showed oyster and Tellina viruses to be related. The biochemical and biophysical properties of the five viruses cannt be included in the family Reoviridae or in any of the present virus genera. 相似文献

The pattern of induced protein species of the prototype strain of the parvovirus minute virus of mice was determined in permissive A9 mouse fibroblast cells by high-resolution two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Identities of the viral proteins in the gels were assigned by probing two-dimensional blots with antisera raised against either purified capsids (recognizing VP-1 and VP-2) or specific coding regions of the nonstructural proteins (NS-1 and NS-2) expressed as beta-galactosidase fusion products in bacteria. All viral proteins showed posttranslational modifications, phosphate being a common substituent. The NS-1 protein migrated as a basic polypeptide in the pI range of 7.4 to 7.8 with multiple stages of modification and as a likely minor but hyperphosphorylated component in the neutral region of the gel. The NS-2 isoforms were resolved at a pI value close to 5.5 as three groups of unevenly phosphorylated polypeptides, each composed of at least two protein species. Both VP-1 and VP-2 structural polypeptides were induced as heterogeneous phosphoproteins. The major VP-2 protein could be resolved in the form of a consistent pattern of three abundant (a to c), two intermediate (d and e), and one meager (f) neutral isoelectric focusing species or subtypes. This posttranslational modification precedes and is uncoupled from viral assembly, and all of the VP-2 subtypes are packaged into empty capsids at the induced stoichiometry. However, intracellular full virions harbored additional phosphorylated subtypes (g to l) and a subtle rearrangement in the whole VP-2 composition, while mature virions purified from lysed cultures lacked these subtypes, coordinately with the emergence of six neutral VP-3 subtypes. Thus, the virion coat undergoes a chemical transition entailed by genome encapsidation, in which phosphates seem to play a major role, triggering the preferential proteolytic cleavage of the more acidic VP-2 subtypes to VP-3. Parvoviruses, with small coding capacity, may regulate some morphogenetic steps, such as assembly, genome encapsidation, and maturation, by posttranslational modifications of their structural proteins. 相似文献

Purified virion DNA (120 X 10(6) molecular weight [MW]) of Marek's disease virus strain GA was cleaved with BamHI restriction endonuclease, and 27 out of the 29 fragments were cloned into bacterial plasmids. Restriction maps for BamHI, BglI, and SmaI endonucleases were constructed. The genomic structure of Marek's disease virus DNA was found to be similar to that of herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2. A long unique region (75 X 10(6) MW, located at 10 X 10(6) to 85 X 10(6) MW [10-85] from the left end of the genome), which was subdivided into segment 1 (22 X 10(6) MW, located at 10-32) and segment 2 (51 X 10(6) MW, located at 34-85) by direct repeats (32-34), was flanked by a long terminal region (10 X 10(6) MW, located at 0-10) and a long inverted region (10 X 10(6) MW, located at 85-95). A short unique region (8 X 10(6) MW, located at 103-111) was flanked by a short terminal region (8 X 10(6) MW, located at 111-119) and a short inverted region (8 X 10(6) MW, located at 95-103). The direct repeat fragments (0.9 X 10(6) could be isolated by cleavage with SmaI. The right terminal end was found to be heterogenous . 相似文献

Molecular cloning of herpes simplex virus type 2 DNA 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Restriction enzyme HindIII digestion of the whole genome of herpes simplex virus type 2 strain 186 yielded 10 DNA fragments with molecular weights ranging from approximately 22 X 10(6) to 1.2 X 10(6), which were cloned into the HindIII site of bacterial plasmid pACYC 184. The cloned fragments were identified by hybridization to HSV-2 virus DNA and by double digestion with restriction endonucleases. The recombinant plasmids, even if they carried DNA sequences with molecular weights of more than 10(7), were efficiently replicated in E. coli HB101. 相似文献

The Moloney murine sarcoma-leukemia virus [M-MSV (MuLV)], propagated at high multiplicity of infection (MOI), was demonstrated previously to contain a native genome mass of 4 X 10(6) daltons as contrasted to a mass of 7 X 10(6) daltons for Moloney murine leukemia virus (M-MuLV). The 4 X 10(6)-dalton classof RNA from M-MSV (MuLV) was examined for base sequence homology with DNA complementary to the 7 X 10(6)-dalton M-MuLV RNA genome. Approximately 86% of the M-MSV (MuLV) was protected from RNase digestion by hybridization, whereas 95% of M-MuLV was protected under identical conditions. These results indicate that the small RNA class of high-MOI M-MSV (MuLV) contains little (perhaps 10%) genetic information not present in M-MuLV. Virtually all of the 1.8 X 10(6)-dalton subunits of M-MSV (MuLV) RNA contained regions of poly(A) since 94% of the RNA bound to oligo(dT) cellulose in 0.5 M KCl. This suggests that the formation of the 1.8 X 10(6)-dalton subunits occurs before their packaging into virions and does not result from hydrolysis of intact 3.5 X 10(6)-dalton subunits by a virion-associated nuclease. 相似文献

The nucleic acids of influenza A, B, and C viruses were compared. Susceptibility to nucleases demonstrates that influenza C virus, just as influenza A and B viruses, possesses single-stranded RNA as its genome. The base compositions of the RNAs of influenza A, B, and influenza C virus are almost identical and comparative analysis on polyacrylamide gels shows that the genome of influenza C/GL/1167/54 virus, like that of the RNAs of influenza A and B viruses, is segmented. Eight distinct RNA bands were found for influenza A/PR/8/34 virus and for influenza B/Lee/40 virus. The RNA of influenza C/GL/1167/54 virus separated into at least four segments. The total molecular weights of the RNA of influenza A/PR/8/34 and B/Lee/40 virus were calculated to be 5.29 X 10(6) and 6.43 X 10(6), respectively. A minimum value of 4.67 X 10(6) daltons was obtained for influenza C/GL/1167/54 virus RNA. The data suggest that influenza C viruses are true members of the influenza virus group. 相似文献

The genome RNA and six mRNA species of infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus were analyzed by denaturing gel electrophoresis. The following molecular weights were determined: genome RNA, 3.7 X 10(6); mRNA 1, 2.26 X 10(6); mRNA 2, 5.63 X 10(5); mRNA 3, 4.84 X 10(5); mRNA 4 (containing two different mRNA species), 3.00 X 10(5); and mRNA 5, 1.95 X 10(5). Densitometer analyses of gels were used to calculate the molar ratios of the intracellular mRNA species: mRNA 1, 0.02; mRNA 2, 0.49; mRNA 3, 1.0; mRNA 4, 2.52; and mRNA 5, 0.41. Hybrid selection studies determined the mRNA coding assignments as follows: mRNA 1 encodes the viral polymerase, L; mRNA 2 encodes the glycoprotein, G; mRNA 3 encodes the nucleocapsid protein, N; mRNA 4 is composed of two comigrating mRNA species which encode the matrix proteins, M1 and M2; and mRNA 5 encodes a previously unrecognized viral protein which is induced in infected cells but is not present in mature virions. This nonvirion protein has been designated the NV protein. 相似文献

The virion proteins and genomic RNA of human parainfluenza virus 3 have been characterized. The virion contains seven major and two minor proteins. Three proteins of 195 X 10(3) molecular weight (195K), 87K, and 67K are associated with the nucleocapsid of the virion and have been designated L, P, and NP, respectively. Three proteins can be labeled with [14C]glucosamine and have molecular weights of 69K, 60K, and 46K. We have designated these proteins as HN, F0, and F1, respectively. HN protein has interchain disulfide bonds, but does not participate in disulfide bonding to form homomultimeric forms. F1 appears to be derived from a complex, F1,2, that has an electrophoretic mobility similar to that of F0 under nonreducing conditions. A protein of 35K is associated with the envelope components of the virion and aggregates under low-salt conditions; this protein has been designated M. The genome of human parainfluenza virus 3 is a linear RNA molecule with a molecular weight of approximately 4.6 X 10(6). 相似文献

The present report communicates the first full genome sequencing of the Garlic virus X from northern India. The total genome size of Garlic virus X (MK503771) reported in this study is 8458 bp ssRNA. The full genome sequence analysis showed the close relationship of Garlic virus X from India to that of from China, Korea, Australia and Spain. The full genome sequence based study of Indian Garlic virus X reveals the geographical relationship of this virus in India and global origin which may assists in development of control strategy for this virus. 相似文献

An immune affinity purification procedure for hepatitis A virus (HAV) was designed which yielded milligram quantities of the virus with greater than 95% purity. The major structural proteins VP-1, VP-2, and VP-3 were isolated from the purified virus by electroelution from sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels and used to immunize Lewis rats (three to four doses, 10 to 15 micrograms per dose). The two Lewis rats immunized with VP-1 developed a strong antibody response to VP-1, as determined by Western blot analysis and immune precipitation of the denatured protein. These animals also developed a good antibody response to the whole virus, as demonstrated by a positive response in a competitive radioimmunoassay (HAV antibody test) and by precipitation of the whole virus. In addition, both animals developed a low titer neutralizing antibody to HAV, as demonstrated by an in vitro cell culture assay. While the two rats receiving VP-2 developed only minimal responses to the protein and to the virus by the same assays described above, one of the two developed a significant neutralizing antibody to HAV. The immunization of one Lewis rat with VP-3 induced a good antibody response to both denatured protein and the whole virus. This serum sample was also demonstrated to neutralize the viral infectivity. Finally, two rabbits that had received inoculations of sodium dodecyl sulfate and heat-disrupted HAV (containing 20 to 30 micrograms of each protein per dose) developed good antiprotein responses to all of the proteins and good antiviral responses, including a consistently significant neutralizing activity. The neutralizing antibody responses suggest that the structural proteins of HAV, or a portion of them, could provide the basis for a subunit vaccine for HAV. 相似文献

Phosphorylation status of the parvovirus minute virus of mice particle: mapping and biological relevance of the major phosphorylation sites

The core of the VP-1 and VP-2 proteins forming the T=1 icosahedral capsid of the prototype strain of the parvovirus minute virus of mice (MVMp) share amino acids sequence and a common three-dimensional structure; however, the roles of these polypeptides in the virus infection cycle differ. To gain insights into this paradox, the nature, distribution, and biological significance of MVMp particle phosphorylation was investigated. The VP-1 and VP-2 proteins isolated from purified empty capsids and from virions containing DNA harbored phosphoserine and phosphothreonine amino acids, which in two-dimensional tryptic analysis resulted in complex patterns reproducibly composed by more than 15 unevenly phosphorylated peptides. Whereas secondary protease digestions and comigration of most weak peptides in the fingerprints revealed common phosphorylation sites in the VP-1 and VP-2 subunits assembled in capsids, the major tryptic phosphopeptides were remarkably characteristic of either polypeptide. The VP-2-specific peptide named B, containing the bulk of the (32)P label of the MVMp particle in the form of phosphoserine, was mapped to the structurally unordered N-terminal domain of this polypeptide. Mutations in any or all four serine residues present in peptide B showed that the VP-2 N-terminal domain is phosphorylated at multiple sites, even though none of them was essential for capsid assembly or virus formation. Chromatographic analysis of purified wild-type (wt) and mutant peptide B digested with a panel of specific proteases allowed us to identify the VP-2 residues Ser-2, Ser-6, and Ser-10 as the main phosphate acceptors for MVMp capsid during the natural viral infection. Phosphorylation at VP-2 N-terminal serines was not necessary for the externalization of this domain outside of the capsid shell in particles containing DNA. However, the plaque-forming capacity and plaque size of VP-2 N-terminal phosphorylation mutants were severely reduced, with the evolutionarily conserved Ser-2 determining most of the phenotypic effect. In addition, the phosphorylated amino acids were not required for infection initiation or for nuclear translocation of the expressed structural proteins, and thus a role at a late stage of MVMp life cycle is proposed. This study illustrates the complexity of posttranslational modification of icosahedral viral capsids and underscores phosphorylation as a versatile mechanism to modulate the biological functions of their protein subunits. 相似文献

The retrovirus strain MC29 induces a variety of tumors in chickens, including myelocytomatosis and carcinomas of the kidney and liver. In addition, the virus can transform cultures of embryonic avian macrophages and fibroblasts. We have characterized the genome of MC29 virus and have identified nucleotide sequences that may encode the oncogenic potential ofthe virus. MC29 virus can replicate only with the assistance of a related helper virus. The defect in replication is apparently a consequence of a deletion in one or more viral genes: the haploid genome of the MC29 virus has a molecular weight of ca. 1.7 X 10(6), whereas the genome of the helper virus MCAV has a molecular weight of ca. 3.1 X 10(6). Although MC29 virus transforms fibroblasts in culture, its genome has no detectable homology with the gene src that is responsible for transformation of fibroblasts by avian sarcoma viruses. We prepared radioactive single-stranded DNA complementary to nucleotide sequences present in the genome of MC29 virus but not in the genome of MCAV (cDNA(MC29)). If they are contiguous, these sequences (ca. 1,500 nucleotides) are sufficiently complex to encode at least one protein. Homologous sequences were not detectable in several strains of avian sarcoma viruses or in an endogenous virus of chickens. Our findings confirm and extend recent reports from other laboratories and lead to the conclusion that MC29 virus may contain a previously unidentified gene(s) that is capable of transforming several distinct target cells. The evolutionary origins of this putative gene and its location on the viral genome can be explored with cDNA(MC29). 相似文献

DNA-DNA reassociation kinetics of herpes simplex virus type 1 Angelotti DNA and a class of defective viral DNA revealed that the viral standard genome has a total sequence complexity of about 93 X 10(6) daltons and that a portion of 11 X 10(6) daltons occurs twice on the viral genome. These results agree with structural features of herpes simplex virus type 1 DNA derived from electron microscopic studies and restriction enzyme analyses by several investigators. The defective viral DNA (molecular weight, about 97 X 10(6)) displays a sequence complexity of about 11 X 10(6) daltons, suggesting that the molecule is built up by repetitions of standard DNA sequences comprising about 15,000 base pairs. A 2 X 10(6)-dalton portion of these sequences maps in the redundant region and a 9 X 10(6)-dalton portion maps in the unique part of the standard herpes simplex virus type 1 Angelotti DNA, as could be shown by reassociation of viral standard DNA in the presence of defective DNA and vice versa. No cellular DNA sequences could be detected in defective DNA. A 12% molar fraction of the defective DNA consists of highly repetitive sequences of about 350 to 500 base pairs in length. 相似文献

Ten species of virus-specific RNA were detected in Vero cells infected with the FXNO strain of canine distemper virus (CDV). The largest RNA was the genome-sized RNA and the nine smaller species were polyadenylated RNAs. Similar results were obtained for nine other strains of CDV. The molecular weights of these ten RNAs were determined to be 4.61 X 10(6), 2.46 X 10(6), 1.52 X 10(6), 1.32 X 10(6), 1.19 X 10(6), 1.07 X 10(6), 0.77 X 10(6), 0.65 X 10(6), 0.58 X 10(6), and 0.48 X 10(6). By in vitro translation of the polyadenylated RNAs in a rabbit reticulocyte lysate system, three different proteins which probably correspond to H, NP, and M were synthesized from the fraction containing RNAs 7, 8, 9, and 10. 相似文献

The genome of equine infectious anemia virus, a nononcogenic retrovirus, has been characterized by velocity sedimentation, electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels, buoyant density in CS2SO4, and susceptibility to nuclease digestion. The nucleic acid of purified virus was resolved by sedimentation analysis into a fast-sedimenting genome component, which comprises about two-thirds of the virion RNA, and a slow-sedimenting RNA, which is probably comprised of host-derived tRNA and a trace amount of 5S RNA. The fast-sedimenting RNA had a sedimentation coefficient of 62S and a molecular weight of 5.4 X 10(6) to 5.6 X 10(6), as determined by sedimentation velocity and electrophoretic mobility. Upon heat denaturation, [3H]uridine-labeled 62S RNA dissociated into material comprised of 90 to 95% single-stranded species, sedimenting predominantly at 34S, with a molecular weight of 2.7 X 10(6) to 2.9 X 10(6) and 5 to 10% 4S RNA. The 62S RNA was predominantly single-stranded but contained double-stranded regions, as indicated by partial resistance to RNase IA and SI nuclease and by a lower buoyant density in CS2SO4 than that of the single-stranded 34S RNA derived by heat denaturation. These data indicated that the viral genome consisted of two 34S subunits of single-stranded RNA held in a high-molecular-weight complex with 4S RNA by a mechanism involving a small degree of base pairing. Thus, the structure of equine infectious anemia virus RNA is similar to that of other retroviruses. 相似文献
