Expression of rotavirus VP2 produces empty corelike particles.   总被引:26,自引:20,他引:6       下载免费PDF全文
The complete VP2 gene of bovine rotavirus strain RF has been inserted into the baculovirus transfer vector pVL941 under the control of the polyhedrin promoter. Cotransfection of Spodoptera frugiperda 9 cells with wild-type baculovirus DNA and transfer vector DNA led to the formation of recombinant baculoviruses which contain bovine rotavirus gene 2. Infection of S. frugiperda cells with this recombinant virus resulted in the production of a protein similar in size and antigenic properties to the authentic rotavirus VP2. The protein binds double-stranded RNA and DNA in an overlay protein blot assay. Expressed VP2 assembles in the cytoplasm of infected cells in corelike particles 45 nm in diameter. These corelike particles were purified by sucrose gradient centrifugation and found to be devoid of nucleic acid. Coexpression of VP2 and VP6 from heterologous rotavirus strains (bovine and simian) resulted in the formation of single-shelled particles. These results definitively show the existence of an innermost protein shell in rotavirus which is formed independently of other rotavirus proteins. These results have implications for schemes of rotavirus morphogenesis.  相似文献

In our previous study (K. Taniguchi, Y. Morita, T. Urasawa, and S. Urasawa, J. Virol. 62:2421-2426, 1987) in which the cross-reactive neutralization epitopes on VP4 of human rotaviruses were analyzed, one strain, K8, was found to bear unique VP4 neutralization epitopes. This strain, which belongs to subgroup II and serotype 1, was not neutralized by any of six anti-VP4 neutralizing monoclonal antibodies which reacted with human rotavirus strains of serotypes 1, 3, and 4 or serotypes 1 through 4. We determined the complete nucleotide sequence of the gene encoding VP4 of strain K8 by primer extension. The VP4 gene is 2,359 base pairs in length, with 5' and 3' noncoding regions of 9 and 25 nucleotides, respectively. The gene contains a long open reading frame of 2,325 bases capable of coding for a protein of 775 amino acids. When compared with those of other human rotaviruses, VP4 of strain K8 had an insertion of one amino acid after residue 135, as found in simian rotavirus strains, and in addition, it had a deletion of one amino acid (residue 575). The amino acid homology of VP4 of strain K8 and those of other virulent human rotaviruses was only 60 to 70%. This was unusual, since over 90% VP4 homology has been found among the other virulent human rotavirus strains. In contrast, the VP7 amino acid sequence of the K8 strain was quite similar (over 98% homology) to those of other serotype 1 human rotaviruses. Thus, the K8 strain appears to have a unique VP4 gene previously not described.  相似文献

cDNA clones representing the VP8 and VP5 subunits of VP4 of symptomatic human rotavirus strain KU (VP7 serotype 1 and VP4 serotype 1A) or DS-1 (VP7 serotype 2 and VP4 serotype 1B) or asymptomatic human rotavirus strain 1076 (VP7 serotype 2 and VP4 serotype 2) were constructed and inserted into the pGEMEX-1 plasmid and expressed in Escherichia coli. Immunization of guinea pigs with the VP8 or VP5 protein of each strain induced antibodies that neutralized the rotavirus from which the VP4 subunits were derived. In a previous study (M. Gorziglia, G. Larralde, A.Z. Kapikian, and R. M. Chanock, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 87:7155-7159, 1990), three distinct serotypes and one subtype of VP4 outer capsid protein were identified among 17 human rotavirus strains that had previously been assigned to five distinct VP7 serotypes. The results obtained by cross-immunoprecipitation and by neutralization assay with antisera to the VP8- and VP5-expressed proteins suggest that the VP8 subunit of VP4 contains the major antigenic site(s) responsible for serotype-specific neutralization of rotavirus via VP4, whereas the VP5 subunit of VP4 is responsible for much of the cross-reactivity observed among strains that belong to different VP4 serotypes.  相似文献

Clearance of chronic murine rotavirus infection in SCID mice can be demonstrated by adoptive transfer of immune CD8+ T lymphocytes from histocompatible donor mice immunized with a murine homotypic rotavirus (T. Dharakul, L. Rott, and H.B. Greenberg, J. Virol 64:4375-4382, 1990). The present study focuses on the protein specificity and heterotypic nature of cell-mediated clearance of chronic murine rotavirus infection in SCID mice. Heterotypic cell-mediated clearance was demonstrated in SCID mice infected with EDIM (murine) rotavirus after adoptive transfer of CD8+ T lymphocytes from BALB/c mice that were immunized with a variety of heterologous (nonmurine) rotaviruses including Wa (human, serotype 1), SA11 and RRV (simian, serotype 3), and NCDV and RF (bovine, serotype 6). This finding indicates the serotypic independence of T-cell-mediated rotavirus clearance. To further identify the rotavirus proteins that are capable of generating CD8+ T cells that mediate virus clearance, donor mice were immunized with SF-9 cells infected with a baculovirus recombinant expressing one of the following rotavirus proteins: VP1, VP2, NS53 (from RF), VP4, VP7, NS35 (from RRV), VP6, and NS28 (from SA11). SCID mice stopped shedding rotavirus after receiving CD8+ T cells from mice immunized with VP1, VP4, VP6, and VP7 but not with VP2, NS53, NS35, NS28, or wild-type baculovirus. These results suggest that heterotypic cell-mediated clearance of rotavirus in SCID mice is mediated by three of the major rotavirus structural proteins and by a putative polymerase protein.  相似文献

A safe and effective group A rotavirus vaccine that could prevent severe diarrhea or ameliorate its symptoms in infants and young children is urgently needed in both developing and developed countries. Rotavirus VP7 serotypes G1, G2, G3, and G4 have been well established to be of epidemiologic importance worldwide. Recently, serotype G9 has emerged as the fifth globally common type of rotavirus of clinical importance. Sequence analysis of the VP7 gene of various G9 isolates has demonstrated the existence of at least three phylogenetic lineages. The goal of our study was to determine the relationship of the phylogenetic lineages to the neutralization specificity of various G9 strains. We generated eight single VP7 gene substitution reassortants, each of which bore a single VP7 gene encoding G9 specificity of one of the eight G9 strains (two lineage 1, one lineage 2 and five lineage 3 strains) and the remaining 10 genes of bovine rotavirus strain UK, and two hyperimmune guinea pig antisera to each reassortant, and we then analyzed VP7 neutralization characteristics of the eight G9 strains as well as an additional G9 strain belonging to lineage 1; the nine strains were isolated in five countries. Antisera to lineage 1 viruses neutralized lineage 2 and 3 strains to at least within eightfold of the homotypic lineage viruses. Antisera to lineage 2 virus neutralized lineage 3 viruses to at least twofold of the homotypic lineage 2 virus; however, neutralization of lineage 1 viruses was fourfold (F45 and AU32) to 16- to 64-fold (WI61) less efficient. Antisera to lineage 3 viruses neutralized the lineage 2 strain 16- to 64-fold less efficiently, the lineage 1 strains F45 and AU32 8- to 128-fold less efficiently, and WI61 (prototype G9 strain) 128- to 1024-fold less efficiently than the homotypic lineage 3 viruses. These findings may have important implications for the development of G9 rotavirus vaccine candidates, as the strain with the broadest reactivity (i.e., a prime strain) would certainly be the ideal strain for inclusion in a vaccine.  相似文献

Using three serotypes (four strains) of cultivable porcine rotavirus as immunizing antigens, 10 neutralizing monoclonal antibodies were characterized. One VP4-specific monoclonal antibody directed against porcine rotavirus BEN-144 (serotype G4) neutralized human rotavirus strain ST-3 in addition to the homologous porcine virus. All nine VP7-specific monoclonal antibodies were highly specific for viruses of the same serotype as the immunizing rotavirus strain. One exception was the VP7-specific monoclonal antibody C3/1, which neutralized both serotype G3 and G5 rotaviruses. However, this monoclonal antibody did not neutralize the porcine rotavirus AT/76, also of serotype G3, nor mutants of SA-11 virus (serotype G3) which were selected with monoclonal antibody A10/N3 and are known to have mutations affecting the C antigenic region.  相似文献

Three cDNA clones comprising the VP8 subunit of the VP4 of human rotavirus strain KU (VP7 serotype G1; VP4 serotype P1A) G1 were constructed. The corresponding encoded peptides were designated according to their locations in the VP8 subunit as A (amino acids 1 to 102), B (amino acids 84 to 180), and C (amino acids 150 to 246 plus amino acids 247 to 251 from VP5). In addition, cDNA clones encoding peptide B of the VP8 subunit of the VP4 gene from human rotavirus strains DS-1 (G2; P1B) and 1076 (G2; P2) were also constructed. These DNA fragments were inserted into plasmid pGEMEX-1 and expressed in Escherichia coli. Western immunoblot analysis using antisera to rotavirus strains KU (P1A), Wa (P1A), DS-1 (P1B), 1076 (P2), and M37 (P2) demonstrated that peptides A and C cross-reacted with heterotypic human rotavirus VP4 antisera, suggesting that these two peptides represent conserved epitopes in the VP8 subunit. In contrast, peptide B appears to be involved in the VP4 serotype and subtype specificities, because it reacted only with the corresponding serotype- and subtype-specific antiserum. Antiserum raised against peptide A, B, or C of strain KU contained a lower level of neutralizing activity than did that induced by the entire VP8 subunit. In addition, the serotype-specific neutralizing activity of anti-KU VP8 serum was ablated after adsorption with the KU VP8 protein but not with a mixture of peptides A, B, and C of strain KU, suggesting that most of the serotype-specific epitopes in the VP8 subunit are conformational and are dependent on the entire amino acid sequence of VP8.  相似文献

Isolation of human monoclonal antibodies that neutralize human rotavirus   总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8  
A human antibody library constructed by utilizing a phage display system was used for the isolation of human antibodies with neutralizing activity specific for human rotavirus. In the library, the Fab form of an antibody fused to truncated cp3 is expressed on the phage surface. Purified virions of strain KU (G1 serotype and P[8] genotype) were used as antigen. Twelve different clones were isolated. Based on their amino acid sequences, they were classified into three groups. Three representative clones-1-2H, 2-3E, and 2-11G-were characterized. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay with virus-like particles (VLP-VP2/6 and VLP-VP2/6/7) and recombinant VP4 protein produced from baculovirus recombinants indicated that 1-2H and 2-3E bind to VP4 and that 2-11G binds to VP7. The neutralization epitope recognized by each of the three human antibodies might be human specific, since all of the antigenic mutants resistant to mouse monoclonal neutralizing antibodies previously prepared were neutralized by the human antibodies obtained here. After conversion from the Fab form of an antibody into immunoglobulin G1, the neutralizing activities of these three clones toward various human rotavirus strains were examined. The 1-2H antibody exhibited neutralizing activity toward human rotaviruses with either the P[4] or P[8] genotype. Similarly, the 2-3E antibody showed cross-reactivity against HRVs with the P[6], as well as the P[8] genotype. In contrast, the 2-11G antibody neutralized only human rotaviruses with the G1 serotype. The concentration of antibodies required for 50% neutralization ranged from 0.8 to 20 micro g/ml.  相似文献

The outer capsid spike protein VP4 of rotaviruses is a major determinant of infectivity and serotype specificity. Proteolytic cleavage of VP4 into 2 domains, VP8* and VP5*, enhances rotaviral infectivity. Interactions between the VP4 carbohydrate‐binding domain (VP8*) and cell surface glycoconjugates facilitate initial virus‐cell attachment and subsequent cell entry. Our saturation transfer difference nuclear magnetic resonance (STD NMR) and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) studies demonstrated that VP8*64‐224 of canine rotavirus strain K9 interacts with N‐acetylneuraminic and N‐glycolylneuraminic acid derivatives, exhibiting comparable binding epitopes to VP8* from other neuraminidase‐sensitive animal rotaviruses from pigs (CRW‐8), cattle (bovine Nebraska calf diarrhoea virus, NCDV), and Rhesus monkeys (Simian rhesus rotavirus, RRV). Importantly, evidence was obtained for a preference by K9 rotavirus for the N‐glycolyl‐ over the N‐acetylneuraminic acid derivative. This indicates that a VP4 serotype 5A rotavirus (such as K9) can exhibit a neuraminic acid receptor preference that differs from that of a serotype 5B rotavirus (such as RRV) and the receptor preference of rotaviruses can vary within a particular VP4 genotype.  相似文献

To obtain the P8 protein of Rice gall dwarf virus (RGDV) with biological activity, its outer coat protein gene S8 was expressed in Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9) insect cells using the baculovirus expression system. The S8 gene was subcloned into the pFastBac™1 vector, to produce the recombinant baculovirus transfer vector pFB-S8. After transformation, pFB-S8 was introduced into the competent cells (E. coli DH10Bac) containing a shuttle vector, Bacmid, generating the recombinant bacmid rbpFB-S8. After being infected by recombinant baculovirus rvpFB-S8 at different multiplicities of infection, Sf9 cells were collected at different times and analyzed by SDS-PAGE, Western blotting and immunofluorescence microscopy. The expression level of the P8 protein was highest between 48–72 h after transfection of Sf9 cells. Immunofluorescence microscopy showed that P8 protein of RGDV formed punctate structures in the cytoplasm of Sf9 cells.  相似文献

我国1998~1999年流行的婴幼儿腹泻轮状病毒的分型研究   总被引:40,自引:1,他引:39  
轮状病毒是世界范围内引起婴幼儿腹泻的主要病原。根据病毒外壳蛋白VP4和VP7抗原性的不同可区分为不同型:P(VP4,protease sensitive)型和G(VP7,glycoprotein)型。1998-1999年在中国8个城市(长春、秦皇岛、北京、杭州、福州、广州、成都、昆明)采集了急性腹泻患儿的1093份非细菌性腹泻粪便标本,先进行A组轮状病毒(HRV)的筛选,其中阳性标本433份(39.6%),电泳型长型占优势(96%)。对HRV标本,再利用血清型特异的MAbELISA和/或RT-PCR进行G分型。结果表明,在1998-1999年,在上述8城市非细菌性腹泻行季节,以HRV G1型为主要流行株,占阳性的83.4%,其次为G3(12.0%)、G4(3.5%)和G2(3.2%)。此外,有3份(0.7%)HRV标本未能分型,12(2.8%)份标本为混合感染,还结合1982-1996年全国12个地区1382份HRV标本的分型资料,分析了我国HVR G血清型的流行规律。实验中又抽样选取了124份GHRV标本,用RT-PCR进行P分型,其中P[8]型76份(61.3%),P[4]型14份(11.3%),P[6]型12份(9.7%),P[9]型8份(6.4%)。另外15份(12.1%)未能分出P型,有待进一步检定,实验中HRV分离株除了觉见的P[8]G1(51.4%)、P[4]G2(4.6%)毒株外,还检测到P[8]G3(11.0%)、P[8]G4(6.4%) 和其它较少见的病毒型。以上结果为我国轮状病毒疫苗的应用和开发提供了较系统、清晰的流行病学背景资料。  相似文献
