The herpes simplex virus protein UL25 attaches to the external vertices of herpes simplex virus type 1 capsids and is required for the stable packaging of viral DNA. To define regions of the protein important for viral replication and capsid attachment, the 580-amino-acid UL25 open reading frame was disrupted by transposon mutagenesis. The UL25 mutants were assayed for complementation of a UL25 deletion virus, and in vitro-synthesized protein was tested for binding to UL25-deficient capsids. Of the 11 mutants analyzed, 4 did not complement growth of the UL25 deletion mutant, and analysis of these and additional mutants in the capsid-binding assay demonstrated that UL25 amino acids 1 to 50 were sufficient for capsid binding. Several UL25 mutations were transferred into recombinant viruses to analyze the effect of the mutations on UL25 capsid binding and on DNA cleavage and packaging. Studies of these mutants demonstrated that amino acids 1 to 50 of UL25 are essential for its stable interaction with capsids and that the C terminus is essential for DNA packaging and the production of infectious virus through its interactions with other viral packaging or tegument proteins. Analysis of viral DNA cleavage demonstrated that in the absence of a functional UL25 protein, aberrant cleavage takes place at the unique short end of the viral genome, resulting in truncated viral genomes that are not retained in capsids. Based on these observations, we propose a model where UL25 is required for the formation of DNA-containing capsids by acting to stabilize capsids that contain full-length viral genomes. 相似文献

Herpesvirus DNA is packaged into capsids in the nuclei of infected cells in a process requiring at least six viral proteins. Of the proteins required for encapsidation of viral DNA, UL15 and UL28 are the most conserved among herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV), varicella-zoster virus, and equine herpesvirus 1. The subcellular distribution of the pseudorabies virus (PRV) UL28 protein was examined by in situ immunofluorescence. UL28 was present in the nuclei of infected cells; however, UL28 was limited to the cytoplasm in the absence of other viral proteins. When cells expressing variant forms of UL28 were infected with a PRV UL28-null mutant, UL28 entered the nucleus, provided the carboxyl-terminal 155 amino acids were present. Additionally, PRV UL28 entered the nucleus in cells infected with HSV. Two HSV packaging proteins were tested for the ability to affect the subcellular distribution of UL28. Coexpression of HSV UL15 enabled PRV UL28 to enter the nucleus in a manner that required the carboxyl-terminal 155 amino acids of UL28. Coexpression of HSV UL25 did not affect the distribution of UL28. We propose that an interaction between UL15 and UL28 facilitates the transport of a UL15-UL28 complex to the infected-cell nucleus. 相似文献

An essential step in assembly of herpes simplex virus (HSV) type 1 capsids involves interaction of the major capsid protein (VP5) with the C terminus of the scaffolding protein (encoded by the UL26.5 gene). The final 12 residues of the HSV scaffolding protein contains an A-X-X-F-V/A-X-Q-M-M-X-X-R motif which is conserved between scaffolding proteins found in other alphaherpesviruses but not in members of the beta- or gamma-herpesviruses. Previous studies have shown that the bovine herpesvirus 1 (alphaherpesvirus) UL26.5 homolog will functionally substitute for the HSV UL26.5 gene (E. J. Haanes et al., J. Virol. 69:7375-7379, 1995). The homolog of the UL26.5 gene in the human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) genome is the UL80.5 gene. In these studies, we tested whether the HCMV UL80.5 gene would substitute for the HSV UL26.5 gene in a baculovirus capsid assembly system that we have previously described (D. R. Thomsen et al., J. Virol. 68:2442-2457, 1994). The results demonstrate that (i) no intact capsids were assembled when the full-length or a truncated (missing the C-terminal 65 amino acids) UL80.5 protein was tested; (ii) when the C-terminal 65 amino acids of the UL80.5 protein were replaced with the C-terminal 25 amino acids of the UL26.5 protein, intact capsids were made and direct interaction of the UL80.5 protein with VP5 was detected; (iii) assembly of intact capsids was demonstrated when the sequence of the last 12 amino acids of the UL80.5 protein was changed from RRIFVA ALNKLE to RRIFVAAMMKLE; (iv) self-interaction of the scaffold proteins is mediated by sequences N terminal to the maturation cleavage site; and (v) the UL26.5 and UL80.5 proteins will not coassemble into scaffold structures. The results suggest that the UL26.5 and UL80.5 proteins form a scaffold by self-interaction via sequences in the N termini of the proteins and emphasize the importance of the C terminus for interaction of scaffold with the proteins that form the capsid shell. 相似文献

A major cause of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) spectrum disorder is the hexanucleotide G4C2 repeat expansion in the first intron of the C9orf72 gene. Many underlying mechanisms lead to manifestation of disease that include toxic gain-of-function by repeat G4C2 RNAs, dipeptide repeat proteins, and a reduction of the C9orf72 gene product. The C9orf72 protein interacts with SMCR8 and WDR41 to form a trimeric complex and regulates multiple cellular pathways including autophagy. Here, we report the structure of the C9orf72-SMCR8 complex at 3.8 Å resolution using single-particle cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM). The structure reveals 2 distinct dimerization interfaces between C9orf72 and SMCR8 that involves an extensive network of interactions. Homology between C9orf72-SMCR8 and Folliculin-Folliculin Interacting Protein 2 (FLCN-FNIP2), a GTPase activating protein (GAP) complex, enabled identification of a key residue within the active site of SMCR8. Further structural analysis suggested that a coiled-coil region within the uDenn domain of SMCR8 could act as an interaction platform for other coiled-coil proteins, and its deletion reduced the interaction of the C9orf72-SMCR8 complex with FIP200 upon starvation. In summary, this study contributes toward our understanding of the biological function of the C9orf72-SMCR8 complex.Structural and biochemical characterisation of the C9orf72-SMCR8 complex sheds light on its overall architecture and highlights its role as a multi-functional scaffold for coordinating autophagy. 相似文献

UL9, a superfamily II helicase, is a multifunctional protein required for herpes simplex virus type 1 replication in vivo. Although the C-terminal 317-amino-acid DNA binding domain of UL9 exists as a monomer, the full-length protein behaves as a dimer in solution. Thus, it has been assumed that the N-terminal 534 residues contain a region necessary for efficient dimerization and that UL9 dimers are in a head-to-head configuration. We recently showed, however, that residues in the N terminus could modulate the inhibitory properties of UL9 by decreasing the DNA binding ability of the C terminus (S. Chattopadhyay and S. K. Weller, J. Virol. 80:4491-4500, 2006). We suggested that a direct interaction between the N- and C-terminal portions of UL9 might exist and serve to modulate the DNA binding activities of the C terminus. In this study, we used a coimmunoprecipitation assay to show that the N-terminal portion of UL9 can indeed directly interact with the C terminus. A series of truncation mutant proteins were used to show that a region in the N terminus between residues 293 and 321 is necessary for efficient interaction. Similarly, a region in the C terminus between residues 600 and 800 is required for this interaction. The simplest model to explain these data is that UL9 dimers are oriented in a head-to-tail arrangement in which the N terminus is in contact with the C terminus. 相似文献

Human cytomegalovirus protein IE2-p86 exerts its functions through interaction with other viral and cellular proteins. To further delineate its protein interaction network, we generated a recombinant virus expressing SG-tagged IE2-p86 and used tandem affinity purification coupled with mass spectrometry. A total of 9 viral proteins and 75 cellular proteins were found to associate with IE2-p86 protein during the first 48 hours of infection. The protein profile at 8, 24, and 48 h post infection revealed that UL84 tightly associated with IE2-p86, and more viral and cellular proteins came into association with IE2-p86 with the progression of virus infection. A computational analysis of the protein-protein interaction network indicated that all of the 9 viral proteins and most of the cellular proteins identified in the study are interconnected to varying degrees. Of the cellular proteins that were confirmed to associate with IE2-p86 by immunoprecipitation, C1QBP was further shown to be upregulated by HCMV infection and colocalized with IE2-p86, UL84 and UL44 in the virus replication compartment of the nucleus. The IE2-p86 interactome network demonstrated the temporal development of stable and abundant protein complexes that associate with IE2-p86 and provided a framework to benefit future studies of various protein complexes during HCMV infection. 相似文献

Heat shock proteins participate in the initiation of DNA replication of different organisms by facilitating the assembly of initiation complexes. We have examined the effects of human heat shock proteins (Hsp40 and Hsp70) on the interaction of the herpes simplex virus type-1 initiator protein (UL9) with oriS, one of the viral origins of replication. Hsp40 and Hsp70 act substoichiometrically to increase the affinity of UL9 for oriS. The major contributor to this effect is Hsp40. Heat shock proteins also stimulate the ATPase activity of UL9 with oriS and increase opening of the origin. In contrast, heat shock proteins have no effect on the origin-independent activities of UL9 suggesting that their role is not merely in refolding denatured protein. These observations are consistent with a role for heat shock proteins in activating UL9 to efficiently initiate viral origin-dependent DNA replication. The action of heat shock proteins in this capacity is analogous to their role in activating the initiator proteins of other organisms. 相似文献

UL25 is one of seven herpes simplex virus-encoded proteins involved specifically in DNA encapsidation. Its role appears to be to stabilize the capsid so that DNA is prevented from escaping once it has entered. To clarify the function of UL25, we have examined capsids with the goal of defining where it is located. Analysis of trypsin-treated capsids showed that UL25 is sensitive to cleavage like other proteins such as the major capsid and portal proteins that are exposed on the capsid surface. Internal proteins such as the scaffolding protein and protease were not affected under the same experimental conditions. Capsids were also examined by electron microscopy after staining with gold-labeled antibody specific for UL25. Images of stained capsids demonstrated that most labeled sites (71% in C capsids) were at capsid vertices, and most stained C capsids had label at more than one vertex. A quantitative immunoblotting method showed that the capsid contents of UL25 were 56, 20, and 75 copies per capsid in A, B, and C capsids, respectively. Finally, soluble UL25 protein was found to bind in vitro to purified capsids lacking it. The amount of bound UL25 corresponded to the amount present in B capsids, and bound UL25 was found by immunoelectron microscopy to be located predominantly at the capsid vertices. The results are interpreted to suggest that five UL25 molecules are found at or near each of the capsid vertices, where they are exposed on the capsid surface. Exposure on the surface is consistent with the view that UL25 is added to the capsid as DNA is packaged or during late stages of the packaging process. 相似文献

An interaction between the HSV-1 UL25 capsid protein and cellular microtubule-associated protein was found using a yeast two-hybrid screen and β-D-galactosidase activity assays. Immunofluorescence microscopy of the UL25 protein demonstrated its co-localization with cellular microtubule-associated protein in the plasma membrane. Further investigations with deletion mutants suggest that UL25 is likely to have a function in the nucleus. 相似文献

The UL30 protein of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is a catalytically active DNA polymerase which is present in virus infected cells in a heterodimeric complex with an accessory subunit, the UL42 polypeptide. Both proteins are essential for viral DNA synthesis but because the UL42 protein is much more abundant it has been difficult to determine whether its role is related to, or independent of, its interaction with the UL30 protein in vivo. Since the C-terminal region of UL30 has been shown to be important for interaction with the UL42 protein but dispensable for DNA polymerase activity, a recombinant baculovirus which overexpresses a UL30 protein truncated by 27 amino acids at its C-terminus was constructed and used to assess the significance of the protein-protein interaction. The mutated protein was as active as wildtype (wt) UL30 in a DNA polymerase assay in which activated calf thymus DNA was used as template. However, in contrast to the wt protein, the activity of the truncated polymerase on this template was not stimulated by addition of purified UL42. A monoclonal antibody against the UL42 protein co-precipitated the full length but not truncated polymerase from extracts of cells which had been co-infected with a UL42-expressing recombinant baculovirus. Finally, the truncated protein was not active in a transient assay for HSV-1 origin-dependent DNA replication performed in insect cells in tissue culture. These results indicate that sequences at the C-terminus of the UL30 protein which are dispensable for DNA polymerase activity play essential roles both in viral DNA replication and interaction with the UL42 protein, and strongly suggest that the interaction between the proteins is important in vivo. 相似文献

Puralpha has been implicated in mRNA transport and translation in neurons. We previously reported that Puralpha is a component of mRNA/protein complexes (Puralpha-mRNPs) with several other proteins. Among them, we found the C9orf10 (Homo sapiens chromosome 9 open reading frame 10) protein, which was recently characterized as a component of RNA-containing structures. However, C9orf10 itself remains poorly understood. To characterize C9orf10 expression at the protein level, we raised an antibody against C9orf10 and compared the spatial and developmental expressions of this protein and Puralpha in the mouse brain. C9orf10 was expressed as early as embryo stage 12, whereas Puralpha was expressed from 5 days after birth. In adults, C9orf10 expression was most prominent in the hippocampus, caudate putamen, cerebral cortex, and cerebellum, unlike the uniform distribution of Puralpha. C9orf10-positive cells also showed immunoreactivity to Puralpha. C9orf10 expression was restricted to neurons, judging by the immunoreactivity to neuron-specific nuclear protein or CaM kinase II. These observations suggest an accessory role of C9orf10 for Puralpha in a limited brain region in addition to other possible functions that have not yet been determined. 相似文献

The capsid and tegument of the alphaherpesviruses are linked by an interaction between the UL25 and VP1/2 proteins 总被引:5,自引:4,他引:1

How alphaherpesvirus capsids acquire tegument proteins remains a key question in viral assembly. Using pseudorabies virus (PRV), we have previously shown that the 62 carboxy-terminal amino acids of the VP1/2 large tegument protein are essential for viral propagation and when transiently expressed as a fusion to green fluorescent protein relocalize to nuclear capsid assemblons following viral infection. Here, we show that localization of the VP1/2 capsid-binding domain (VP1/2cbd) into assemblons is conserved in herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and that this recruitment is specifically on capsids. Using a mutant virus screen, we find that the protein product of the UL25 gene is essential for VP1/2cbd association with capsids. An interaction between UL25 and VP1/2 was corroborated by coimmunoprecipitation from cells transiently expressing either HSV-1 or PRV proteins. Taken together, these findings suggest that the essential function of the VP1/2 carboxy terminus is to anchor the VP1/2 tegument protein to capsids. Furthermore, UL25 encodes a multifunctional capsid protein involved in not only encapsidation, as previously described, but also tegumentation. 相似文献

The capsid-associated UL25 protein of the alphaherpesvirus pseudorabies virus is nonessential for cleavage and encapsidation of genomic DNA but is required for nuclear egress of capsids

Homologs of the UL25 gene product of herpes simplex virus (HSV) have been identified in all three subfamilies of the Herpesviridae. However, their exact function during viral replication is not yet known. Whereas earlier studies indicated that the UL25 protein of HSV-1 is not required for cleavage of newly replicated viral DNA but is necessary for stable encapsidation (A. R. McNab, P. Desai, S. Person, L. Roof, D. R. Thompson, W. W. Newcomb, J. C. Brown, and F. L. Homa, J. Virol. 72:1060-1070, 1998), viral DNA packaging has recently been demonstrated to occur in the absence of UL25, although at significantly decreased levels compared to wild-type HSV-1 (N. Stow, J. Virol. 75:10755-10765 2001). To clarify the functional role of UL25 we analyzed the homologous protein of the alphaherpesvirus pseudorabies virus (PrV). PrV UL25 was found to be essential for viral replication, as a mutant virus lacking the UL25 protein required UL25-expressing cells for productive propagation. In the absence of the UL25 protein, newly replicated PrV DNA was cleaved and DNA-containing C-type capsids were detected in infected cell nuclei. However, although capsids were frequently found in close association with the inner nuclear membrane, nuclear egress was not observed. Consequently, no capsids were found in the cytoplasm, resulting in an inhibition of virion morphogenesis. In contrast, the formation of capsidless enveloped tegument structures (L particles) in the cytoplasm was readily observed. Thus, our data demonstrate that the PrV UL25 protein is not essential for cleavage and encapsidation of viral genomes, although both processes occur more efficiently in the presence of the protein. However, the presence of the PrV UL25 protein is a prerequisite for nuclear egress. By immunoelectron microscopy, we detected UL25-specific label on DNA-containing C capsids but not on other intranuclear immature or defective capsid forms. Thus, the PrV UL25 protein may represent the hitherto missing trigger that allows primary envelopment preferably of DNA-filled C capsids. 相似文献

Herpes simplex virus replicates its DNA within nuclear structures called replication compartments. In contrast, in cells in which viral DNA replication is inhibited, viral replication proteins localize to punctate structures called prereplicative sites. We have utilized viruses individually mutated in each of the seven essential replication genes to assess the function of each replication protein in the assembly of these proteins into prereplicative sites. We observed that four replication proteins, UL5, UL8 UL52, and UL9, are necessary for the localization of ICP8 (UL29) to prereplicative sites natural infection conditions. Likewise, four of the seven viral DNA replication proteins, UL5, UL52, UL9, and ICP8, are necessary for the localization of the viral DNA polymerase to prereplicative sites. On the basis of these results, we present a model for prereplicative site formation in infected cells in which the helicase-primase components (UL5, UL8, and UL52), the origin-binding protein (UL9), and the viral single-stranded DNA-binding protein (ICP8) assemble together to initiate the process. This is followed by the recruitment of the viral polymerase into the structures, a step facilitated by the polymerase accessory protein, UL42. Host cell factors can apparently substitute for some of these viral proteins under certain conditions, because the viral protein requirements for prereplicative site formation are reduced in transfected cells and in infected cells treated with drugs that inhibit DNA synthesis. 相似文献
