All influenza viral neuraminidases (NA) of both type A and B viruses have only one universally conserved sequence located between amino acids 222–230. A monoclonal antibody against this region has been previously reported to provide broad inhibition against all nine subtypes of influenza A NA; yet its inhibitory effect against influenza B viral NA remained unknown. Here, we report that the monoclonal antibody provides a broad inhibition against various strains of influenza B viruses of both Victoria and Yamagata genetic lineage. Moreover, the growth and NA enzymatic activity of two drug resistant influenza B strains (E117D and D197E) are also inhibited by the antibody even though these two mutations are conformationally proximal to the universal epitope. Collectively, these data suggest that this unique, highly-conserved linear sequence in viral NA is exposed sufficiently to allow access by inhibitory antibody during the course of infection; it could represent a potential target for antiviral agents and vaccine-induced immune responses against diverse strains of type B influenza virus. 相似文献

The emergence of highly pathogenic influenza A virus strains, such as the new H1N1 swine influenza (novel influenza), represents a serious threat to global human health. During our course of an anti-influenza screening program on natural products, one new licochalcone G (1) and seven known (2-8) chalcones were isolated as active principles from the acetone extract of Glycyrrhiza inflata. Compounds 3 and 6 without prenyl group showed strong inhibitory effects on various neuraminidases from influenza viral strains, H1N1, H9N2, novel H1N1 (WT), and oseltamivir-resistant novel H1N1 (H274Y) expressed in 293T cells. In addition, the efficacy of oseltamivir with the presence of compound 3 (5 μM) was increased against H274Y neuraminidase. This evidence of synergistic effect makes this inhibitor to have a potential possibility for control of pandemic infection by oseltamivir-resistant influenza virus. 相似文献

Complete nucleotide sequence of the cloned full-length DNA copy of the influenza virus A (H1N1) neuraminidase gene has been determined. The predicted amino acid sequence is compared with sequences of neuraminidases from other influenza virus strains. A section of the neuraminidase is found to be homologous to the chicken lysozyme catalytic centre. 相似文献

The 3D structure of paramyxovirus hemagglutinin-neuraminidase has not yet been resolved; however, a theoretical model has been built by using influenza virus and bacterial neuraminidases as template [V. C. Epa (1997) Proteins Struct. Funct. Gen. 29, 264-281]. Two common features of the catalytic mechanism of the neuraminidases of known 3D structure are the anomeric specificity and the involvement of a tyrosine residue in the stabilization of the transition state. These key features have been investigated on the water-soluble ectodomain of the hemagglutinin-neuraminidase from Sendai virus (cHN). The anomeric specificity of the hydrolysis of the substrate by cHN has been investigated by NMR spectroscopy. The immediate product of the reaction was the alpha-anomer, meaning that cHN belongs between glycohydrolases retaining anomeric configuration like influenza virus neuraminidase. Measurements of the UV difference spectrum upon binding of the substrate analogue 2,3-dehydro 2-deossi N-acetyl neuraminic acid indicate the ionization of a tyrosine residue and decreased polarity in the environment of a tryptophan residue. Functional significance of the spectral data was derived from the known structure of influenza neuraminidase, where a tyrosinate ion is involved in the stabilization of the transition-state carbonium ion, and a tryptophan residue is involved in the binding of the acetyl moiety of the substrate. The data give experimental support to the 3D model of paramyxovirus neuraminidase. 相似文献

Influenza virus neuraminidase (NA) cleaves terminal sialic acid residues on oligosaccharide chains that are receptors for virus binding, thus playing an important role in the release of virions from infected cells to promote the spread of cell-to-cell infection. In addition, NA plays a role at the initial stage of viral infection in the respiratory tract by degrading hemagglutination inhibitors in body fluid which competitively inhibit receptor binding of the virus. Current first line anti-influenza drugs are viral NA-specific inhibitors, which do not inhibit bacterial neuraminidases. Since neuraminidase producing bacteria have been isolated from oral and upper respiratory commensal bacterial flora, we posited that bacterial neuraminidases could decrease the antiviral effectiveness of NA inhibitor drugs in respiratory organs when viral NA is inhibited. Using in vitro models of infection, we aimed to clarify the effects of bacterial neuraminidases on influenza virus infection in the presence of the NA inhibitor drug zanamivir. We found that zanamivir reduced progeny virus yield to less than 2% of that in its absence, however the yield was restored almost entirely by the exogenous addition of bacterial neuraminidase from Streptococcus pneumoniae. Furthermore, cell-to-cell infection was severely inhibited by zanamivir but restored by the addition of bacterial neuraminidase. Next we examined the effects of bacterial neuraminidase on hemagglutination inhibition and infectivity neutralization activities of human saliva in the presence of zanamivir. We found that the drug enhanced both inhibitory activities of saliva, while the addition of bacterial neuraminidase diminished this enhancement. Altogether, our results showed that bacterial neuraminidases functioned as the predominant NA when viral NA was inhibited to promote the spread of infection and to inactivate the neutralization activity of saliva. We propose that neuraminidase from bacterial flora in patients may reduce the efficacy of NA inhibitor drugs during influenza virus infection. (295 words). 相似文献

The emergence of the H1N1 swine flu pandemic has the possibility to develop the occurrence of disaster- or drug-resistant viruses by additional reassortments in novel influenza A virus. In the course of an anti-influenza screening program for natural products, 10 xanthone derivatives (1-10) were isolated by bioassay-guided fractionation from the EtOAc-soluble extract of Polygala karensium. Compounds 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9 with a hydroxy group at C-1 showed strong inhibitory effects on neuraminidases from various influenza viral strains, H1N1, H9N2, novel H1N1 (WT), and oseltamivir-resistant novel H1N1 (H274Y) expressed in 293T cells. In addition, these compounds reduced the cytopathic effect of H1N1 swine influenza virus in MDCK cells. Our results suggest that xanthones from P. karensium may be useful in the prevention and treatment of disease by influenza viruses. 相似文献

Summary. In this proof-of-concept study, we attempt to determine whether the cause-mutation relationship defined by randomness is protein
dependent by predicting mutations in H5N1 neuraminidases from influenza A virus, because we have recently conducted several
concept-initiated studies on the prediction of mutations in hemagglutinins from influenza A virus. In our concept-initiated
studies, we defined the randomness as a cause for mutation, upon which we built a cause-mutation relationship, which is then
switched into the classification problem because the occurrence and non-occurrence of mutations can be classified as unity
and zero. Thereafter, we used the logistic regression and neural network to solve this classification problem to predict the
mutation positions in hemagglutinins, and then used the amino acid mutating probability to predict the would-be-mutated amino
acids. As the previous results were promising, we extend this approach to other proteins, such as H5N1 neuraminidase in this
study, and further address various issues raised during the development of this approach. The result of this study confirms
that we can use this cause-mutation relationship to predict the mutations in H5N1 neuraminidases.

Two Asian influenza strains, the Hong Kong strain and an Equi-2 influenza strain have been investigated. Adsorption isotherms of purified neuraminidases from these strains with isolated antibodies from homologous antisera are given. Cross testing by neuraminidase inhibition and haemagglutination inhibition are reported. Hong Kong neuraminidase appears to be indistinguishable from the earlier Asian neuraminidases, and not related to Equi-2 influenza neuraminidase. The haemagglutinin from the Hong Kong strain is related to earlier Asian strains as well as to the equine strain.In collaboration with the Chief Medical Officer of Health and Epidemiology, Department of Public Health, Den Haag, The Netherlands.It is a pleasure to express our thanks to Mr. J.

Serum is commonly treated with potassium periodate to destroy nonspecific inhibitors of influenza virus hemagglutination. We have observed, however, that such treatment of serum without pre-existing inhibitor produced high titers of inhibitor against certain strains of influenza virus. Inhibitor was induced in the serum from several different animal species but not in hamster or mouse serum. Periodate treatment of serum albumin, fraction V, from several animals, including man, creates this inhibitor. Our data indicate that the inhibitor induced in the serum of various animal species differs in its mechanism of induction and in its resistance to receptor-destroying enzyme and trypsin. Hemagglutination by B/Singapore/3/64, B/Colorado/2/65, B/Georgia/1/65, and B/Massachusetts/3/66 strains of influenza virus is inhibited by periodate-treated human serum at dilutions as high as 1:5,120. The routine use of periodate treatment of serum in diagnostic and surveillance studies of influenza virus infections is not recommended. 相似文献

When mice were immunized with the A/Okuda/57 (H2N2) strain of influenza virus, a unique monoclonal antibody designated C179 was obtained. Although C179 was confirmed to recognize the hemagglutinin (HA) glycoprotein by immunoprecipitation assays, it did not show hemagglutination inhibition activity to any of the strains of the three subtypes of influenza A virus. However, it neutralized all of the H1 and H2 strains but not the H3 strains. Moreover, it inhibited polykaryon formation induced by the H1 and H2 strains but not by the H3 strains. Two antigenic variants against C179 were obtained, and nucleotide sequence analysis revealed that amino acid sequences, from 318 to 322 of HA1 and from 47 to 58 of HA2, conserved among H1 and H2 strains were responsible for the recognition of C179. Since the two sites were located close to each other at the middle of the stem region of the HA molecule, C179 seemed to recognize these sites conformationally. These data indicated that binding of C179 to the stem region of HA inhibits the fusion activity of HA and thus results in virus neutralization and inhibition of cell-cell fusion. This is the first report which describes the presence of conserved antigenic sites on HA not only in a specific subtype but also in two subtypes of influenza A virus. 相似文献

Enzymatic kinetic parameters of influenza A virus N1 neuraminidases (NA) chromatographically purified from several vaccine candidate strains were tested. With ionic strength held constant, Ca2+ or Mg2+ increased the initial rate of enzymatic activity. The 1934 and 1943 strains had statistically significant highest initial velocities, V(max)/K(m) and V(max). There were no significant differences among the influenza virus strains from 1947 to 1991. Measured K(m) for the 1943 strain (6.2 x 10(-5) M) was significantly higher than other strains (3.1-4.7 x 10(-5) M). V(max)/K(m) varied from 0.78 M(-1) s(-1) to 0.91 M(-1) s(-1) and V(max) varied from 3.0 s(-1) to 5.5 s(-1) before the addition of a divalent cation and increased approximately 2-fold for each of these kinetic parameters for each strain after the addition of exogenous Ca2+ or Mg2+. Dialysis reduced the initial velocity and immunogenicity of each strain with significant differences found among strains. Enzymatic activity and immunogenicity were partially restored by the addition of exogenous Ca2+. Nucleic acid sequence analysis could not predict these differences. Selection of vaccine strains must include analysis of antigenic changes, but also enzymatic studies and determination of the requirement of divalent cations to maintain immunogenicity and activity during production. 相似文献

A molecular mechanism for the low-pH stability of sialidase activity of influenza A virus N2 neuraminidases 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Four human pandemic influenza A virus strains isolated in 1957 and 1968, but not most of the epidemic strains isolated after 1968, possess sialidase activity under low-pH conditions. Here, we used cell-expressed neuraminidases (NAs) to determine the region of the N2 NA that is associated with low-pH stability of sialidase activity. We found that consensus amino acid regions responsible for low-pH stability did not exist in pandemic NAs but that two amino acid substitutions in the low-pH-stable A/Hong Kong/1/68 (H3N2) NA and a single substitution in the low-pH-unstable A/Texas/68 (H2N2) NA resulted in significant change in low-pH stability. 相似文献

The Hemagglutinin (HA) is a protein of influenza A virus. It is present on the surface of influenza A virus and it is a glycoprotein.
The HA is identified as potential drug target. H1N1 thiazolides, proved to be a potent drug in the inhibition of H1N1 replication. It
is also known as inhibitor of other strains of influenza A virus. Thiazolide drug represses viral HA''s maturation at a level which
exists just before the resistance from digestion of endoglycosidase-H and thereby it hampers, HA insertion in host membrane.
Blocking the appropriate active site of hemagglutinin protein helps in the disease control. In the present work, we have generated
diverse combinatorial library based ligands on known inhibitor thiazolides and they were used for virtual screening by Molegro
virtual docker program. K-means clustering approach was used for finding new inhibitory molecules with more appropriate
features. These resulted molecules are may be helpful in the treatment of swine flu and many other related diseases. 相似文献

The increasing availability of complete influenza virus genomes is deepening our understanding of influenza evolutionary dynamics and facilitating the selection of vaccine strains. However, only one complete African influenza virus sequence is available in the public domain. Here we present a complete genome analysis of 59 influenza A/H3N2 viruses isolated from humans in Uganda during the 2008 and 2009 season. Isolates were recovered from hospital-based sentinel surveillance for influenza-like illnesses and their whole genome sequenced. The viruses circulating during these two seasons clearly differed from each other phylogenetically. They showed a slow evolution away from the 2009/10 recommended vaccine strain (A/Brisbane/10/07), instead clustering with the 2010/11 recommended vaccine strain (A/Perth/16/09) in the A/Victoria/208/09 clade, as observed in other global regions. All of the isolates carried the adamantane resistance marker S31N in the M2 gene and carried several markers of enhanced transmission; as expected, none carried any marker of neuraminidase inhibitor resistance. The hemagglutinin gene of the 2009 isolates differed from that of the 2008 isolates in antigenic sites A, B, D, and to a lesser extent, C and E indicating evidence of an early phylogenetic shift from the 2008 to 2009 viruses. The internal genes of the 2009 isolates were similar to those of one 2008 isolate, A/Uganda/MUWRP-050/2008. Another 2008 isolate had a truncated PB1-F2 protein. Whole genome sequencing can enhance surveillance of future seasonal changes in the viral genome which is crucial to ensure that selected vaccine strains are protective against the strains circulating in Eastern Africa. This data provides an important baseline for this surveillance. Overall the influenza virus activity in Uganda appears to mirror that observed in other regions of the southern hemisphere. 相似文献

Neuraminidases (EC 3.2.1.18) of 1957, 1960, and 1969 influenza virus strains were isolated after proteolytic digestion of viral hemagglutinin. Each neuraminidase was recovered with a final yield of about 15% and had similar specific activities. Immunization of rabbits with the neuraminidases elicited monospecific neuraminidase antibodies, with no antibodies to viral hemagglutinin. Further evidence of purity was the existence of only a single component, about 50,000 daltons in size, when reduced neuraminidase preparations were examined by sodium dodecyl sulfate acrylamide gel electrophoresis. However, storage of neuraminidase in solution resulted in the appearance of slightly smaller degradation products. Preparations of each neuraminidase were denatured under reducing conditions, and exposed sulfhydryl residues were blocked by reaction with (14)C-iodoacetamide. After tryptic digestion, peptide maps were prepared for the neuraminidases, and the (14)C-labeled cysteinyl peptides were then identified by autoradiography. About 20 peptides were present, in agreement with the number predicted from amino acid analysis for neuraminidase subunits of only one type. The 1957 and 1960 neuraminidases exhibited a small antigenic divergence from each other, and maps of their cysteinyl peptides appeared to be identical. The 1969 neuraminidase exhibited considerable antigenic divergence from the other two neuraminidases, and maps of 1969 neuraminidase peptides revealed two major and several minor differences from the other maps. Thus, antigenic divergence between the neuraminidases of Asian and Hong Kong influenza viruses is associated with a small number of changes in the primary structure of the neuraminidase subunit. 相似文献

Sodium p-chloromercuribenzoate (PCMB) caused a noticeable reduction of infectivity of prototype strains of type A and Lee strain of type B influenza viruses at concentrations of 100 and 200 μg/ml, respectively, after an incubation at 37 C for 60 min. The virucidal effect on A/AA/2/60 (H2N2) strain was dependent on the concentration of the drug and temperature as well as on the time of incubation. The reagent exerted this effect at a concentration which induced little change in the hemagglutinating and neuraminidase activities of the virus. PCMB inhibited by 50% the virus particle-associated RNA polymerase activity of all prototype strains of type A influenza virus at about 2 μg/ml and that of Lee strain of type B influenza virus at 8.5 μg/ml. Other sulfhydryl reagent such as phenylmercuric nitrate also exhibited virucidal effect on A/AA/2/60 virus which paralleled their inhibition of the virus particle-associated RNA polymerase activity. From these results it was considered likely that the virucidal action of PCMB on influenza viruses was attributable to inhibition of the virus particle-associated RNA polymerase activity. 相似文献

A selective and potent inhibitor of neuraminidases, a hydrolase that is responsible for processing sialylated glycoconjugates, is a promising drug candidate for various infective diseases. The current study demonstrates that the use of an aglycone-focused library of 2-difluoromethylphenyl α-sialosides is an effective technique to find potent and selective mechanism-based labeling reagents for neuraminidases. The focused library was constructed from a 4-azide-2-difluoromethylphenyl sialoside (2) and an alkyne-terminated compound library by a click reaction. The focused library showed different inhibition patterns for two neuraminidases, Vibrio cholerae neuraminidase (VCNA) and human neuraminidase 2 (hNeu2), and the most potent inhibitors for each neuraminidase were selected. A kinetic analysis of the selected inhibitors demonstrated that the modification of the aglycone moiety improved the K(I) value with little change in the t(1/2) value of the enzyme activity relative to the basic skeleton (2). 相似文献

A conventional synthesis of alpha-thioglycoside of sialic acid as a glycomonomer was accomplished. Radical copolymerization of the glycomonomer with vinyl acetate proceeded smoothly to afford a new class of glycopolymers having thiosialoside residues, in which all protection was removed by a combination of transesterification and saponification to provide a water-soluble thiosialoside cluster. The results of a preliminary study on biological responses against influenza virus neuraminidases using the thiosialoside polymer as a candidate for a neuraminidase inhibitor showed that the glycopolymer has potent inhibitory activity against the neuraminidases. 相似文献

Human influenza viruses can be isolated efficiently from clinical samples using Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. However, this process is known to induce mutations in the virus as it adapts to this non-human cell-line. We performed a systematic study to record the pattern of MDCK-induced mutations observed across the whole influenza A/H3N2 genome. Seventy-seven clinical samples collected from 2009-2011 were included in the study. Two full influenza genomes were obtained for each sample: one from virus obtained directly from the clinical sample and one from the matching isolate cultured in MDCK cells. Comparison of the full-genome sequences obtained from each of these sources showed that 42% of the 77 isolates had acquired at least one MDCK-induced mutation. The presence or absence of these mutations was independent of viral load or sample origin (in-patients versus out-patients). Notably, all the five hemagglutinin missense mutations were observed at the hemaggutinin 1 domain only, particularly within or proximal to the receptor binding sites and antigenic site of the virus. Furthermore, 23% of the 77 isolates had undergone a MDCK-induced missense mutation, D151G/N, in the neuraminidase segment. This mutation has been found to be associated with reduced drug sensitivity towards the neuraminidase inhibitors and increased viral receptor binding efficiency to host cells. In contrast, none of the neuraminidase sequences obtained directly from the clinical samples contained the D151G/N mutation, suggesting that this mutation may be an indicator of MDCK culture-induced changes. These D151 mutations can confound the interpretation of the hemagglutination inhibition assay and neuraminidase inhibitor resistance results when these are based on MDCK isolates. Such isolates are currently in routine use in the WHO influenza vaccine and drug-resistance surveillance programs. Potential data interpretation miscalls can therefore be avoided by careful exclusion of such D151 mutants after further sequence analysis. 相似文献

Analysis of the segmented RNAs of influenza A viruses by electrophoresis on polyacrylamide urea slab gels has provided a method for sharper resolution of the number and migration rates of different segments than previously has been possible. Using this system, the RNA genome of influenza A/WSN (HON1) virus can be separated into seven to nine separate bands, depending on whether virus is obtained after high or low multiplicity of infection, and the genome of influenza A/PR/8 (HON1) virus can be resolved into eight bands, six of which migrate differently from comparable RNA bands of WSN virus. Comparision of the RNA patterns produced by influenza A/PR/8 (HON1) and A/England/42/72 (H8n2) virus also reveals major differences in migration speeds of different bands, and analysis of the RNAs of the RNAs of an HON2 recombinant virus derived from these two strains permits the identification of RNA segments which have been derived from one particular parent. By extension of these techniques, it may be possible to define which RNA segment codes for each viral protein and to analyze recombinant strains to identify which genes have been derived from each of its parents. 相似文献
