Enzymology of Plasma Membranes of Insect Intestinal Cells

The enzymology of insect intestinal cell plasma membranes isa field of scientific research that is in the earliest stagesof development. In this paper the few published studies specificallydesigned to isolate plasma membranes from insect intestinalcells and determine the enzymes associated with them are reviewedin light of both older studies that approached these problemsless directly and recent results from our laboratory. In the past few years reliable methods have been developed forthe isolation of specific portions of plasma membranes fromthe epithelial cells of the midguts of a few insect larvae.These membrane preparations have been assayed for a varietyof enzyme activities. Alkaline phosphatase, leucine aminopeptidaseand -glutamyl transpeptidase have shown promise as potentialmarkers for the plasma membranes of insect larval midgut cells.However, only the latter enzyme currently stands unchallengedas a marker for the apical portion of the plasma membrane ofinsect midgut columnar epithelial cells. No enzymes can yetbe considered to be even tentatively established as markersfor the basal or lateral portions of insect intestinal cells.     

Detection of Proton Movement Directly across Viral Membranes To Identify Novel Influenza Virus M2 Inhibitors

The influenza virus M2 protein is a well-validated yet underexploited proton-selective ion channel essential for influenza virus infectivity. Because M2 is a toxic viral ion channel, existing M2 inhibitors have been discovered through live virus inhibition or medicinal chemistry rather than M2-targeted high-throughput screening (HTS), and direct measurement of its activity has been limited to live cells or reconstituted lipid bilayers. Here, we describe a cell-free ion channel assay in which M2 ion channels are incorporated into virus-like particles (VLPs) and proton conductance is measured directly across the viral lipid bilayer, detecting changes in membrane potential, ion permeability, and ion channel function. Using this approach in high-throughput screening of over 100,000 compounds, we identified 19 M2-specific inhibitors, including two novel chemical scaffolds that inhibit both M2 function and influenza virus infectivity. Counterscreening for nonspecific disruption of viral bilayer ion permeability also identified a broad-spectrum antiviral compound that acts by disrupting the integrity of the viral membrane. In addition to its application to M2 and potentially other ion channels, this technology enables direct measurement of the electrochemical and biophysical characteristics of viral membranes.

树(鼠句)应用于病毒学方面的研究进展

树鼠句(Tupaia)是一种在生物医学研究中很有应用价值的新型实验动物,其分类尚有争议,有人认为是食虫类,有人则将之列为低等灵长类, 还有人认为树鼠句是一个独立目的,称为攀鼠句目(Scandentia) [1]},但目前基本定 为低等灵长类.由于其具有体积小,类似松鼠,比较容易饲养和操作,管理方便,繁殖力高 ,廉价经济等优点,树鼠句存在多种自发性疾病 ,对多种病毒易感,而且其进化程度高,新陈陈谢和大体解剖与人较为接近,因此其作为较 理想的实验动物,已经被广泛地应用于医学与生物学的研究中.在病毒学方面,树鼠句不但被用作疱诊病毒、腺病毒、EB病毒、甲型和乙型 肝炎病毒、轮状病毒的研究 [2]},而且还用于流感病毒、丙型和丁型肝炎病毒、基孔肯雅病毒等研究.本文仅就树鼠句在病毒学方面的应用概况作一介绍.     

The Ebola Virus Matrix Protein VP40 Selectively Induces Vesiculation from Phosphatidylserine-enriched Membranes

Ebola virus is from the Filoviridae family of viruses and is one of the most virulent pathogens known with ∼60% clinical fatality. The Ebola virus negative sense RNA genome encodes seven proteins including viral matrix protein 40 (VP40), which is the most abundant protein found in the virions. Within infected cells VP40 localizes at the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane (PM), binds lipids, and regulates formation of new virus particles. Expression of VP40 in mammalian cells is sufficient to form virus-like particles that are nearly indistinguishable from the authentic virions. However, how VP40 interacts with the PM and forms virus-like particles is for the most part unknown. To investigate VP40 lipid specificity in a model of viral egress we employed giant unilamellar vesicles with different lipid compositions. The results demonstrate VP40 selectively induces vesiculation from membranes containing phosphatidylserine (PS) at concentrations of PS that are representative of the PM inner leaflet content. The formation of intraluminal vesicles was not significantly detected in the presence of other important PM lipids including cholesterol and polyvalent phosphoinositides, further demonstrating PS selectivity. Taken together, these studies suggest that PM phosphatidylserine may be an important component of Ebola virus budding and that VP40 may be able to mediate PM scission.

玉米矮花叶病(maize dwarf mosaic virus,MDMv)是世界上玉米产区普遍发生的病毒病害之一.自20世纪90年代以来,我国玉米矮花叶病发生严重,山西、甘肃、山东、河北以及北京等省市先后大流行,造成了巨大的农业经济损失.在我国玉米产区造成危害的主要是该病毒的B株系,主要借蚜虫传播和种子传播;在玉米矮花叶病的防治中,种植抗病品种,并辅以合理的栽培管理,可有效防止MDMV.本文主要综述玉米矮花叶病病毒的理化特性、玉米矮花叶病的发生危害、病原及其传播方式、发病条件、流行与防治、品种(自交系)抗性、抗性鉴定、抗性遗传及其抗病基因工程研究等方面的研究进展,以期为以后玉米矮花叶病的有效防治提供一定的参考.
