A purified preparation of MVM(i), a murine parvovirus closely related to minute virus of mice (MVM), was found to inhibit various functions mediated by murine T cells in vitro. Addition of MVM(i) virus to secondary allogeneic mixed leukocyte cultures resulted in the inhibition of both lymphocyte proliferation (3H-thymidine incorporation) and the generation of cytolytic T lymphocyte activity but not interferon production. MVM(i) virus also inhibited the growth and cytolytic activity of several cloned, long-term Lyt-2+ cytolytic T cell lines. Furthermore, the antigen-induced proliferative responses of parasite- (Leishmania) specific Lyt-1+ T cells in vitro was abrogated by the addition of MVM(i) virus to the culture. Finally, the suppression of an in vitro antibody response to SRBC by MVM(i) virus was the result of the inhibition of T helper cells required for the B cell response. These suppressive effects were specific for MVM(i); parallel studies in which the prototype MVM parvovirus was used showed no significant inhibition in the various systems tested. 相似文献

Mouse parvovirus (MPV), formerly known as orphan parvovirus, is a newly recognized rodent parvovirus distinct from both serotypes of minute virus of mice (MVM). Restriction analysis of the MPV genome indicated that many restriction sites in the capsid region were different from those of MVM, but most sites in the nonstructural (NS) region of the genome were conserved. MPV resembled MVM in genome size, replication intermediates, and NS proteins. Replication intermediates in infected cells were the same for MPV and MVM, including packaging of the 5-kb minus (V) strand. Furthermore, the MPV NS proteins were the same size as and present at the same ratio as the MVM(i) proteins in infected cells. Cloning and sequencing of the MPV genome revealed a genome organization closely resembling that of MVM, with conservation of open reading frames, promoter sequences, and splice sites. The left terminal hairpin was identical to that of MVM(i), but the right terminus was not conserved. Also, the MPV genome was unique in that it contained 1.8 copies of the terminal repeat sequence rather than the 1 or 2 copies found in other parvoviruses. The predicted amino acid sequence of the NS proteins of MPV and MVM(i) were nearly identical. In contrast, the predicted amino acid sequence of the capsid proteins of MPV was different from sequences of other parvoviruses. These results confirm that MPV is a distinct murine parvovirus and account for the antigenic differences between MPV and MVM. 相似文献

Nucleotide changes at both codons 317 and 321 in the VP2 capsid gene of the immunosuppressive strain of the murine parvovirus minute virus of mice, MVM(i), are required to create a virus capable of growing in A9 fibroblasts. This double mutant virus, ILB1, has growth characteristics very similar to those of the prototype fibrotropic strain MVM(p) in both single- and multiple-round infections of fibroblasts and is about 100-fold better at infecting fibroblasts than MVM(i). When only one nucleotide position is changed, either in codon 317 (as in ILB2) or in codon 321 (as in ILB3), the resulting viruses are less than twice as efficient as their parent MVM(i) at infecting fibroblasts. In the restrictive infection of A9 cells by the single mutants and MVM(i), gene expression and DNA replication were markedly reduced compared with ILB1 infection of the same cells or compared with infections of permissive hybrid cells by each of the viruses. This suggests that restriction acts predominantly at an early step in the infection. Since the phenotypes of ILB2 and ILB3 are essentially indistinguishable in restrictive infections, it is most likely that the individual loci affect the same step in the viral life cycle. The dramatic increase in fibroblast infectivity shown by ILB1 indicates a synergistic interaction between these two amino acid residues in the same rate-limiting process in fibroblast infection. 相似文献

Recent studies with adeno-associated virus (AAV) have shown that site-specific integration is directed by DNA sequence motifs that are present in both the viral replication origin and the chromosomal preintegration DNA and that specify binding and nicking sites for the viral regulatory Rep protein. This finding raised the question as to whether other parvovirus regulatory proteins might direct site-specific recombination with DNA targets that contain origin sequences functionally equivalent to those described for AAV. To investigate this question, active and inactive forms of the minute virus of mice (MVM) 3' replication origin, derived from a replicative-form dimer-bridge intermediate, were propagated in an Epstein-Barr virus-based shuttle vector which replicates as an episome in a cell-cycle-dependent manner in mammalian cells. Upon MVM infection of these cells, the infecting genome integrated into episomes containing the active-origin sequence reported to be efficiently nicked by the MVM regulatory protein NS1. In contrast, MVM did not integrate into episomes containing either the inactive form of the origin sequence reported to be inefficiently nicked by NS1 or the active form from which the NS1 consensus nick site had been deleted. The structure of the cloned MVM episomal recombinants displayed several features previously described for AAV episomal and chromosomal recombinants. The findings indicate that the rules which govern AAV site-specific recombination also apply to MVM and suggest that site-specific chromosomal insertions may be achievable with different autonomous parvovirus replicator proteins which recognize binding and nicking sites on the target DNA. 相似文献

Two strains of minute virus of mice (MVM) show different host cell specificities. The prototype strain MVM(p) grows in fibroblasts, whereas the immunosuppressive variant MVM(i) grows in T lymphocytes. In this study, we have mapped on the viral genome a cell type-specific determinant: it is located between 69 and 85 map units in a region coding for the viral capsid proteins. The DNA of MVM(p) does not replicate in lymphocytes. MVM(i) cannot help MVM(p) grow in lymphocytes; thus the determinant acts in a cis fashion. We did not detect viral mRNA during a restrictive infection of lymphocytes with MVM(p). However, when the same cells were transfected with cloned DNA, both MVM(p) and MVM(i) DNAs were transcribed with the same efficiency from both promoters and the RNA was processed normally. Therefore, the specificity determinant is not a cell type-specific enhancer. 相似文献

Two strains of the parvovirus minute virus of mice (MVM), the immunosuppressive (MVMi) and the prototype (MVMp) strains, display disparate in vitro tropism and in vivo pathogenicity. We report the crystal structures of MVMp virus-like particles (MVMp(b)) and native wild-type (wt) empty capsids (MVMp(e)), determined and refined to 3.25 and 3.75 A resolution, respectively, and their comparison to the structure of MVMi, also refined to 3.5 A resolution in this study. A comparison of the MVMp(b) and MVMp(e) capsids showed their structures to be the same, providing structural verification that some heterologously expressed parvovirus capsids are indistinguishable from wt capsids produced in host cells. The structures of MVMi and MVMp capsids were almost identical, but local surface conformational differences clustered from symmetry-related capsid proteins at three specific domains: (i) the icosahedral fivefold axis, (ii) the "shoulder" of the protrusion at the icosahedral threefold axis, and (iii) the area surrounding the depression at the icosahedral twofold axis. The latter two domains contain important determinants of MVM in vitro tropism (residues 317 and 321) and forward mutation residues (residues 399, 460, 553, and 558) conferring fibrotropism on MVMi. Furthermore, these structural differences between the MVM strains colocalize with tropism and pathogenicity determinants mapped for other autonomous parvovirus capsids, highlighting the importance of common parvovirus capsid regions in the control of virus-host interactions. 相似文献

The mechanism of nonhomologous recombination in murine cells infected with the parvovirus minute virus of mice (MVM) has been investigated by analysis of DNA sequences at recombination junctions in naturally occurring deletion variants of the virus. We report here that nonhomologous recombination in the MVM chromosome is characterized by short homologies, by insertion at recombination junctions of foreign DNA sequences that are enriched for preferred eucaryotic topoisomerase I cleavage sites, and by an association with a common DNA sequence motif of the type 5'-CTATTTCT-3'. Additional analyses of broken MVM chromosomes provided evidence for specific enzymatic cleavage within 5'-CTTATC-3' and 5'-CTATTC-3' sequences. The results indicate that the 5'-CTATTTCT-3' motif is an important genetic element for nonhomologous recombination in the parvovirus chromosome. 相似文献

The infection outcome of the Parvoviridae largely relies on poorly characterized intracellular factors modulated by proliferation, differentiation, and transformation of host cells. We have studied the interactions displayed by the highly homologous p and i strains of the murine parvovirus minute virus of mice (MVM), with a series of transformed cells of rat (C6) and human (U373, U87, SW1088, SK-N-SH) nervous system origin, seeking for molecular mechanisms governing parvovirus host range. The MVMp infection of C6 and U373 cells was cytotoxic and productive, whereas the other nervous cells behaved essentially as resistant to this virus. In contrast, MVMi did not complete its life cycle in any of the human nervous cells, though it efficiently killed the astrocytic tumor cells by two types of nonproductive infections: (i) normal synthesis of all viral macromolecules with a late defect in infectious virion maturation and release to the medium in U373; and (ii) high levels of accumulation of the full set of viral messenger RNAs and of both nonstructural (NS-1) and structural (VP-1 and VP-2) proteins, under a very low viral DNA amplification, in U87 and SW1088 cells. Further analyses showed that U87 was permissive for nuclear transport of MVMi proteins, leading to efficient assembly of empty viral capsids with a normal phosphorylation and VP1-to-VP2 ratio. The DNA amplification blockade in U87 occurred after conversion of the incoming MVMi genome to the monomeric replicative form, and it operated independently of the delivery pathway used by the viral particle, since it could not be overcome by transfection with cloned infectious viral DNA. Significantly, a chimeric MVMi virus harboring the coding region of the nonstructural (NS) gene replaced with that of MVMp showed a similar pattern of restriction in U87 cells as the parental MVMi virus, and it attained in U373 cultures an infectious titer above 100-fold higher under equal levels of DNA amplification and genome encapsidation. The results suggest that the activity of complexes formed by the NS polypeptides and recruited cellular factors restrict parvovirus DNA amplification in a cell type-dependent manner and that NS functions may in addition determine MVM host range acting at postencapsidation steps of viral maturation. These data are relevant for understanding the increased multiplication of autonomous parvovirus in some transformed cells and the transduction efficacy of nonreplicative parvoviral vectors, as well as a general remark on the mechanisms by which NS genes may regulate viral tropism and pathogenesis. 相似文献

Nuclear envelope disruption involving host caspases plays a role in the parvovirus replication cycle
Parvoviruses are small, nonenveloped, single-stranded DNA viruses which replicate in the nucleus of the host cell. We have previously found that early during infection the parvovirus minute virus of mice (MVM) causes small, transient disruptions of the nuclear envelope (NE). We have now investigated the mechanism used by MVM to disrupt the NE. Here we show that the viral phospholipase A2, the only known enzymatic domain on the parvovirus capsid, is not involved in causing NE disruption. Instead, the virus utilizes host cell caspases, which are proteases involved in causing NE breakdown during apoptosis, to facilitate these nuclear membrane disruptions. Studies with pharmacological inhibitors indicate that caspase-3 in particular is involved. A caspase-3 inhibitor prevents nuclear lamin cleavage and NE disruption in MVM-infected mouse fibroblast cells and reduces nuclear entry of MVM capsids and viral gene expression. Caspase-3 is, however, not activated above basal levels in MVM-infected cells, and other aspects of apoptosis are not triggered during early MVM infection. Instead, basally active caspase-3 is relocalized to the nuclei of infected cells. We propose that NE disruption involving caspases plays a role in (i) parvovirus entry into the nucleus and (ii) alteration of the compartmentalization of host proteins in a way that is favorable for the virus. 相似文献

The 5'-terminal sequence in the DNA of the parvovirus minute virus of mice (MVM) is a palindrome. It can form a hairpin, the stem of which is entirely base-paired except for three consecutive unpaired nucleotides which form a bubble. Since this structure is well conserved among different parvoviruses, we examined its importance for viral replication by generating MVM mutants with alterations in this region. A clone of MVMp DNA which contained the entire 3' end and more than half of the 5' palindrome was made. Although it lacked the sequence information to form a wild-type bubble, this DNA was infectious. On transfection into A9 fibroblasts, it gave rise to a virus (MVMs) which had a bubble in its 5' palindrome. The bubble consisted of four mismatched nucleotides in the same location as the unpaired nucleotides of the wild-type palindrome. Apparently, neighboring plasmid sequences were incorporated into the viral DNA, enabling formation of the mismatch. This observation suggested that a bubble is critical for growth of MVM but that its sequence is not. To find out whether MVM lacking a bubble in the 5' palindrome is viable, we made a second clone in which the plasmid sequences incorporated in MVMs were removed. Transfection of this DNA gave rise to a virus (MVMx) in which the nucleotides unpaired in the wild-type hairpin are now fully base-paired. Although MVMx can be propagated, it is defective in comparison with wild-type MVMp; it exhibited about a 50-fold-lower ratio of plaque-forming units to DNA content. In mixed infections, MVMp consistently outgrew the bubbleless MVMx. The rate of accumulation of DNA replication intermediates was lower for MVMx than for the wild-type virus. Quantitative analysis of the 5' termini of replicative form DNA suggested that the ability of MVMx to convert hairpin 5' termini to extended termini is impaired. In contrast, the virus with the altered bubble, MVMs, behaved like the wild-type MVMp in all the assays. We conclude that MVM lacking a bubble in its 5'-terminal DNA hairpin is less infectious than and has a selective disadvantage compared with wild-type MVM. The nucleotide sequence of the bubble is not critical. We provide evidence that the presence of a bubble is necessary for efficient viral DNA replication. 相似文献

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays have proven useful for detection of rodent parvoviruses in animals and contaminated biological materials. Fluorogenic nuclease PCR assays combine PCR with an internal fluorogenic hybridization probe, eliminating post-PCR processing and potentially enhancing specificity. Consequently, three fluorogenic nuclease PCR assays were developed, one that detects all rodent parvoviruses, one that specifically detects minute virus of mice (MVM), and one that specifically detects mouse parvovirus 1 (MPV) and hamster parvovirus (HaPV). When rodent parvoviruses and other rodent DNA viruses were evaluated, the rodent parvovirus assay detected only rodent parvovirus isolates, whereas the MVM and MPV/HaPV assays detected only the MVM or MPV/ HaPV isolates, respectively. Each assay detected the equivalent of 10 or fewer copies of target template, and all fluorogenic nuclease PCR assays exceeded the sensitivities associated with previously reported PCR assays and mouse antibody production testing. In addition, each fluorogenic nuclease PCR assay detected the targeted parvovirus DNA in tissues obtained from mice experimentally infected with MVM or MPV. Results of these studies indicate that fluorogenic nuclease PCR assays provide a potentially high-throughput, PCR-based method to detect rodent parvoviruses in infected mice and contaminated biological materials. 相似文献

Previous genetic analysis of the DNA replication of minute virus of mice (MVM) minigenomes suggested that specific elements, A (nucleotides [nt] 4489 to 4636) and B (nt 4636 to 4695), found inboard of the 5' palindrome are required for efficient MVM DNA replication (P. Tam and C. R. Astell, Virology 193:812-824, 1993). In this report, we show that two MVM RsaI restriction fragments (RsaI A [nt 4431 to 4579] and RsaI B [nt 4579 to 4662]) are able to activate DNA replication of an MVM minigenome containing deletions of both elements A and B. We also show that sequences inboard of the right palindrome are able to activate replication of minigenomes containing two left termini. In order to investigate the importance of the RsaI fragments, we demonstrate the presence of a number of sequence-specific DNA-protein interactions by electrophoretic mobility shift assays. After partial fractionation of A9 nuclear extracts, DNase I footprinting analysis was used to determine the binding sites for MVM replication factor (MRF) B5. MRF B5 protects two distinct regions (sites I and II) of the RsaI B probe from DNase I digestion. Competition f electrophoretic mobility shift assays with synthetic oligonucleotides corresponding to sites I and II suggest that MRF B5 is composed of two factors, MRF B3 and MRF B4, which bind DNA independently in a sequence-specific manner. It may be possible that these replication factors are proteins which are able to transactivate MVM DNA replication and hence are accessory replication factors. 相似文献

Minute virus of mice (MVM), a non-defective parvovirus, has been shown to infect cultures of non-pluripotent differentiated teratocarcinoma-derived cells, but pluripotent (and "nullipotent") embryonal carcinoma cells derived from the same teratocarcinoma resist MVN infection. Somatic cell hybrids between an embryonal carcinoma line and Friend erythroblastic leukemia cells are also resistant to MVM, even though Friend cells are susceptible. Among three blastocyst-derived lines tested, only one, a parietal yolk sac cell line, resists MVM infection. These results suggest that teratocarcinoma cultures may provide useful systems in which to study the cellular factors which mediate susceptibility to this teratogenic and oncolytic virus. 相似文献

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Two serotypes of autonomously replicating parvoviruses infect laboratory mice. Genome regions coding for the nonstructural proteins of minute virus of mice [MVM] and mouse parvovirus [MPV] are almost identical, whereas capsid-coding sequences are divergent. We addressed these questions: Does humoral immunity confer protection from acute infection after challenge with homotypic or heterotypic parvovirus, and if it confers protection against acute MPV infection, does it also protect against persistent MPV infection? METHODS: Infant mice without maternal antibody or antibody to MVM or MPV and young adult mice given normal mouse serum or antibody to MVM or MPV were challenged with homotypic or heterotypic virus. In situ hybridization with target tissues was the indicator of infection. RESULTS: Humoral immunity failed to confer protection against acute heterotypic parvovirus infection. In passive transfer studies, MPV DNA was observed occasionally in lymph nodes, intestine, or the spleen of MPV-challenged mice given homotypic antibody and kept for 6 or 28 days. Variable proportions of mice given MPV antibody and homotypic challenge had viral DNA in lymphoid tissues 56 days after virus inoculation. CONCLUSION: A mouse or colony that has sustained infection with MVM or MPV is probably fully susceptible to infection with the heterotypic virus. 相似文献

Autonomous parvovirus minute virus of mice (MVM) DNA replication is strictly dependent on cellular factors expressed during the S phase of the cell cycle. Here we report that MVM DNA replication proceeds in specific nuclear structures termed autonomous parvovirus-associated replication bodies, where components of the basic cellular replication machinery accumulate. The presence of DNA polymerases alpha and delta in these bodies suggests that MVM utilizes partially preformed cellular replication complexes for its replication. The recruitment of cyclin A points to a role for this cell cycle factor in MVM DNA replication beyond its involvement in activating the conversion of virion single-stranded DNA to the duplex replicative form. 相似文献

In this work, we report the transduction of a chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) reporter gene into a variety of normal and transformed human cells of various tissue origins. The vector used was MVM/P38cat, a recombinant of the prototype strain of the autonomous parvovirus minute virus of mice (MVMp). The CAT gene was inserted into the capsid-encoding region of the infectious molecular clone of MVMp genome, under the control of the MVM P38 promoter. When used to transfect permissive cells, the MVM/P38cat DNA was efficiently replicated and expressed the foreign CAT gene at high levels. By cotransfecting with a helper plasmid expressing the capsid proteins, it was possible to produce mixed virus stocks containing MVM/P38cat infectious particles and variable amounts of recombinant MVM. MVM/P38cat viral particles were successfully used to transfer the CAT gene and to express it in a variety of human cells. Both viral DNA replication and P38-driven CAT expression were achieved in fibroblasts, epithelial cells, T lymphocytes, and macrophages in a transformation-dependent way, but with an efficiency depending on the cell type. In transformed B lymphocytes, however, the vector was not replicated, nor did it express the CAT gene. 相似文献
