Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a human pathogen that is involved in numerous diseases and tumors. Since the EBV infection occurs in the early ages of life, and most of the population is subsequently exposed to EBV, the conventional method of vaccination to induce the prophylactic immunity cannot be considered effective in coping with the virus infection. In this study, we tested whether the injection of a plasmid vector that contained the gene for glycoprotein 350 (gp350), which had been identified as a ligand for virus' adsorption and a target for virus neutralizing antibodies, could induce effective immune responses against the antigen. As a result, the injection of the constructed plasmid vector into mice induced the production of gp350-specific antibodies. A major isotype of the gp350-specific antibodies was IgG1. The antibodies efficiently mediated the antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity against the cells expressing the gp350 antigen. In addition, the injection of the constructed plasmid vector stimulated the precursor T cell population that was specific to the gp350 antigen. In addition, gp350-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes were efficiently stimulated by the injection of the constructed plasmid vector. These results suggested that the injection of the plasmid vector, containing the gp350 gene of Epstein-Barr virus, could be one of the most effective ways to induce both prophylactic and therapeutic vaccinations against the virus infection. 相似文献

Truncated versions of the two major Epstein-Barr viral glycoproteins (gp250/350) are secreted by recombinant Chinese hamster ovary cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The expression of the two Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) major membrane proteins gp250/350 (MA-BLLF1) on the surface of recombinant CHO clones cannot be amplified by methotrexate (MTX) selection, perhaps due to toxic effects of these membrane proteins. After removal of sequences encoding the part of the glycoproteins responsible for membrane anchorage, the gp250/350 is secreted into the medium. Following selection with MTX, this construct allows the amplification of the expression products. Besides the possible use of these proteins in protection experiments, they can also be used as antigens for diagnosis, which opens an efficient approach for control of EBV-related neoplasias by early therapy. 相似文献

Cell surface-associated viral glycoproteins are thought to play a major role as target antigens in cellular cytotoxicity and antiviral immunosurveillance. One such glycoprotein is the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-encoded glycoprotein 350 (gp350), which is expressed on both virion envelope and EBV producer cells and carries the virus attachment protein moiety. Although it is known that some antibodies to gp350 can neutralize the virus, the role of this glycoprotein in EBV-specific cellular cytotoxicity is not yet clear. We describe here a study in which we successfully used a new approach to demonstrate that gp350 is a target antigen for EBV-specific antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). Transfection of gp350-negative cells resistant to natural killer (NK) cell activity (i.e., Raji) with a recombinant vector (pZIP-MA) containing the gene encoding the EBV-gp350 and the neomycin resistance gene enabled us to isolate cell clones with a stable and strong expression of gp350 on their surface membranes. ADCC determined by using two clones clearly demonstrated that gp350 is the target of the EBV ADCC. Interestingly, this ADCC was comparable to that obtained against the EBV-superinfected (coated) Raji cell expressing the same percentage of gp350 positivity as the two clones. No cytotoxic activity was detected against either nontransfected (gp350-negative) Raji cells or cells transfected with the vector [pZIP-neo-SV(X)1] lacking the gp350 gene. In addition to demonstrating that gp350 is a target molecule for EBV-specific ADCC, our approach in using NK-resistant transfectants provides a lead for probing the role of cell surface-associated viral antigens in specific cellular killing and immunosurveillance. 相似文献

Epstein-Barr virus gp350/220 binding to the B lymphocyte C3d receptor mediates adsorption, capping, and endocytosis 总被引:48,自引:0,他引:48
The type 2 complement receptor, CR2, a B lymphocyte surface glycoprotein, is known to be a component of the EBV receptor. We now demonstrate that the major EBV outer membrane glycoprotein, gp350/220, is a highly specific ligand for CR2. EBV or beads coated with purified recombinant gp350/220 adsorb to normal B lymphocytes, cap with CR2, become endocytosed into vesicles, and are released into the cytoplasm. This is the first demonstration of herpesvirus glycoprotein-cell glycoprotein receptor interaction in viral adsorption and penetration. The capping of CR2 in response to virus, gp350/220-coated beads, or anti-CR2 monoclonal antibodies is associated with cocapping of surface immunoglobulin. Interaction between CR2 and surface immunoglobulin may be important in modulating the B cell activation that normally follows EBV infection or exposure to antigen. 相似文献

The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) major outer envelope glycoprotein complex, gp350/220, was known to be a ligand for CR2, a B-lymphocyte plasma membrane protein. By Scatchard analysis, soluble EBV gp350/220 binds with high affinity (KD, 1.2 x 10(-8) M) to approximately the same number of B-lymphocyte surface sites as do CR2-specific monoclonal antibodies. Soluble gp350, gp220, or an amino-terminal, 576-amino-acid gp220 derivative binds similarly to B-lymphocyte receptors. Soluble gp350/220, gp220, or even a 470-amino-acid, amino-terminal gp220 derivative blocks EBV adsorption or infection. These experiments demonstrate that (i) gp350/220 is the predominant or exclusive EBV ligand for B lymphocytes; (ii) ligand-receptor blockade can prevent lymphocyte infection by EBV; and (iii) the amino-terminal, 470-amino-acid domain of gp350/220 contains the key ligand domain(s). Consistent with the ligand domain(s) being in the amino-terminal half of gp220 are the findings that the gp350/220-specific, EBV-neutralizing monoclonal antibody 72A1 blocks EBV adsorption by recognizing an epitope in the amino-terminal 470 (probably within the amino-terminal 162) amino acids and a deletion of amino-terminal amino acids 28 and 29 from gp350/220 inactivates ligand activity. 相似文献

表达EB病毒主要膜蛋白gp350/220的非复制型重组痘苗病毒的构建 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
利用非复制痘苗病毒质粒载体pNEOCK11β75及pNEOCK,改造了表达EB病毒主要膜蛋白gp350/22的复制型重组痘苗病毒VMA,构建了非复制型重组痘苗病毒VMA△CK。该病毒能在鸡胚原代成纤维细胞(CEF)中正常繁殖,而在人源细胞中不能正常繁殖。在CEF中连续传代至第25代,经PCR证明,该病毒符合非复制型重组痘苗病毒的特征。经免疫荧光及免疫酶斑法证实,VMA△CK可稳定表达gp350/220,且表达水平与VAM无明显差异。VMA△CK经腹腔免疫Balb/C小鼠,4周后能诱生一定水平的抗gp350/220特异性抗体,加强免疫2周后该抗体水平明显升高。这一结果类似于VMA免疫Balb/C小鼠的结果,初免后,VMA△CK且抗痘苗抗体水平明显低于VMA免疫组;加强免疫2周后,两组小鼠的抗痘苗抗体水平趋于一致。上述结果证明,所构建的非复制痘苗病毒不影响目的抗原的表达,也不影响该抗原的免疫原性,但导致病毒毒力下降,而且用该病毒免疫小鼠后小鼠抗痘苗病毒载体的免疫反应明显下降。 相似文献

In pulse-chase experiments, the three major Epstein-Barr virus envelope glycoproteins, gp350/300, gp250/200, and gp85, were shown to be synthesized from separate precursors of 190,000, 160,000, and 83,000 daltons, respectively. These three pulse-labeled species were chased into the mature forms of the glycoproteins between 1 and 3 h after transfer to nonradioactive medium. Digestion of precursor forms with endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H (endo H) yielded polypeptides of 160,000, 120,000, and 75,000 daltons. Comparison of these results with those from experiments with tunicamycin, which specifically blocks N-linked glycosylation, indicated that some other post-translational modification(s), probably O-linked glycosylation, contributes about 100,000 and 60,000 daltons of apparent molecular mass to gp350/300 and gp250/200, respectively. Experiments with endo H showed that mature gp350/300 and gp250/200 contain complex-type (endo H-resistant) N-linked glycosyl chains, whereas gp85 contains both high-mannose (endo H-sensitive)- and complex-type oligosaccharides. In contrast to the results obtained with the three envelope glycoproteins, no precursor forms of the two unglycosylated protein, p160 (the major Epstein-Barr virus capsid antigen) and p140 (an envelope protein), were detected. The partial proteolytic maps of gp350/300 and gp250/200 were quite similar, suggesting that polypeptide sequence homology could account for at least part of the observed serological cross-reactivity of the two proteins. Taken together, these results demonstrate that the polypeptide portions of gp350/300 and gp250/200 are closely related but not derived from a common precursor. Furthermore, the polypeptide portions comprise half or less of the apparent molecular weight of the mature glycoproteins on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. 相似文献

Antibody-mediated inhibition of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) release from the EBV-productive cell lines P3HR-1 and B95-8 was probed with two monoclonal antibodies (MAbs), 72A1 and 2L10, which immunoprecipitated the same EBV membrane antigen (MA) gp350/220 found with the 1B6 MAb with which inhibition of EBV release from P3HR-1 cells was first described. These three MAbs were not equivalent in either MA reactivities or functional effects, reflecting the variable expression of different epitopes of gp350/220. 1B6 recognized MA on P3HR-1 cells, which expressed predominately the gp220 form of MA. 1B6 did not recognize (or barely recognized) a determinant on B95-8 cells. MAbs 2L10 and 72A1 reacted as well with B95-8 cells as they did with P3HR-1 cells. MAbs 1B6 and 2L10 neutralized neither P3HR-1 nor B95-8 virus, but 72A1 neutralized both viruses. MAbs 1B6 and 72A1 inhibited P3HR-1 virus release, as measured by the assay for infectious virus and by DNA hybridization analysis of released virus, but 2L10 had no such activity. 72A1 (but not 1B6) inhibited release of EBV from B95-8 cells. These experiments pointed to the presence of three different epitopes on gp350/220, identified with the respective MAbs and having varying involvement in virus neutralization and virus release inhibition. 相似文献

The major Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) envelope glycoprotein, gp350, was purified from the B95-8 cell line and analyzed for its ability to mediate virus attachment to the isolated EBV/C3d receptor (CR2) of human B lymphocytes. Purified gp350 and EBV, but not cytomegalovirus, exhibited dose-dependent binding to purified CR2 in dot blot immunoassays. Binding was inhibited by certain monoclonal antibodies to CR2 and to gp350. Liposomes bearing incorporated gp350 bound to CR2-positive B-cell lines but not to CR2-negative lines. Liposome binding was also inhibited by the OKB7 anti-CR2 monoclonal antibody. A computer-generated comparison of the deduced gp350 amino acid sequence with that of the human C3d complement fragment revealed two regions of significant primary sequence homology, a finding which suggests that a common region on these two unrelated proteins may be involved in CR2 binding. 相似文献

The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) envelope glycoprotein 350/220 (gp350/220) is the most abundant molecule on the viral surface and it is responsible for the initial viral attachment to cell surface of the host. As many other viral envelope proteins, it is highly glycosylated, not least with O-linked glycans, most of which essential for EBV life cycle. EBV gp350/220 is also a primary target for neutralizing antibodies in the human hosts and a promising candidate for an EBV vaccine. Here we showed that recombinant GalNAc transferases can glycosylate scan peptides of the EBV gp350/220 envelope protein immobilized on microarray glass slides. We also identified serum IgG antibodies to a selection of peptides and O-glycopeptides, whereas sera from EBV-IgG negative individuals remained negative. We here describe novel glycopeptide epitopes present within immunodominant stretches of EBV gp350/220 and demonstrate a remarkable variability between individual samples with respect to their reactivity patterns to peptides and glycopeptides. The study provides additional insights into the complex B-cell response towards the EBV gp350/220 envelope protein, which may have implications for diagnostic and vaccine developments. 相似文献

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a human gammaherpesvirus associated with malignancies of both epithelial and lymphoid origin. Efficient infection of the latent host reservoir B lymphocytes involves the binding of glycoproteins gp350/220 for initial attachment, followed by the concerted action of gH, gL, gB, and gp42 for membrane fusion. The type II membrane protein gp42 is required for infection of B cells and assembles into a complex with gH and gL. The cellular host receptor for gp42, class II human leukocyte antigen (HLA), has been structurally verified by crystallization analyses of gp42 bound to HLA-DR1. Interestingly, the crystal structure revealed a hydrophobic pocket consisting of many aromatic and aliphatic residues from the predicted C-type lectin domain of gp42 that in other members of the C-type lectin family binds major histocompatibility complex class I or other diverse ligands. Although the hydrophobic pocket does not bind HLA class II, mutational analyses presented here indicate that this domain is essential for EBV-induced membrane fusion. In addition, mutational analysis of the region of gp42 contacting HLA class II in the gp42-HLA-DR1 cocrystal confirms that this region interacts with HLA class II and that this interaction is also important for EBV-induced membrane fusion. 相似文献

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a human lymphocryptovirus that is associated with several malignancies. Elevated EBV DNA in the blood is observed in transplant recipients prior to, and at the time of post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease; thus, a vaccine that either prevents EBV infection or lowers the viral load might reduce certain EBV malignancies. Two major approaches have been suggested for an EBV vaccine- immunization with either EBV glycoprotein 350 (gp350) or EBV latency proteins (e.g. EBV nuclear antigens [EBNAs]). No comparative trials, however, have been performed. Rhesus lymphocryptovirus (LCV) encodes a homolog for each gene in EBV and infection of monkeys reproduces the clinical, immunologic, and virologic features of both acute and latent EBV infection. We vaccinated rhesus monkeys at 0, 4 and 12 weeks with (a) soluble rhesus LCV gp350, (b) virus-like replicon particles (VRPs) expressing rhesus LCV gp350, (c) VRPs expressing rhesus LCV gp350, EBNA-3A, and EBNA-3B, or (d) PBS. Animals vaccinated with soluble gp350 produced higher levels of antibody to the glycoprotein than those vaccinated with VRPs expressing gp350. Animals vaccinated with VRPs expressing EBNA-3A and EBNA-3B developed LCV-specific CD4 and CD8 T cell immunity to these proteins, while VRPs expressing gp350 did not induce detectable T cell immunity to gp350. After challenge with rhesus LCV, animals vaccinated with soluble rhesus LCV gp350 had the best level of protection against infection based on seroconversion, viral DNA, and viral RNA in the blood after challenge. Surprisingly, animals vaccinated with gp350 that became infected had the lowest LCV DNA loads in the blood at 23 months after challenge. These studies indicate that gp350 is critical for both protection against infection with rhesus LCV and for reducing the viral load in animals that become infected after challenge. Our results suggest that additional trials with soluble EBV gp350 alone, or in combination with other EBV proteins, should be considered to reduce EBV infection or virus-associated malignancies in humans. 相似文献

Identification of an epitope in the major envelope protein of Epstein-Barr virus that mediates viral binding to the B lymphocyte EBV receptor (CR2) 总被引:23,自引:0,他引:23
The Epstein-Barr virus gp350/220 envelope protein mediates virus attachment to the EBV/C3dg receptor (CR2) of human B lymphocytes. Synthetic peptides corresponding to two regions in gp350/220, which have a similar amino acid sequence with the complement C3dg protein, were used to identify a receptor binding epitope. A peptide corresponding to the N terminus of gp350/220, EDPGFFNVE, bound to purified CR2 and to CR2 positive but not CR2 negative B and T lymphoblastoid cell lines. Soluble monomeric gp350/220 peptide blocked CR2 binding to immobilized EBV, while multimeric forms of the N-terminal gp350/220 peptide conjugated to albumin efficiently blocked recombinant gp350/220 and C3dg binding to B cells as well as EBV-induced B cell proliferation and transformation. These studies indicate that the N-terminal region of gp350/220 plays a crucial role in mediating the earliest stages of EBV infection of B cells and provides a molecular basis for the restricted host cell EBV tropism. 相似文献

Activation of the alternative complement pathway by EBV and the viral envelope glycoprotein, gp350 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The EBV-producing B lymphoblastoid cell line B95-8 was found to efficiently activate the alternative C pathway whether assessed with Mg-EGTA-treated human serum or with mixtures of the purified proteins of the pathway (PAP). The ability of the cells to activate was markedly increased after stimulation of EBV replication by treatment of the cells with a phorbol ester, and decreased by treatment of the cells with a viral polymerase inhibitor. Alternative pathway activation was dependent on the presence of either properdin or EBV-immune IgG; the addition of either alone to the PAP led to the deposition of 200,000 C3 molecules/cell. The addition of both properdin and immune IgG to the PAP markedly increased C3 binding to a level of 800,000 molecules/cell. Several lines of evidence indicate that the major external glycoprotein of EBV, gp350, mediates alternative pathway activation by B95-8 cells. First, the ability to activate C positively correlated with gp350 expression on the surface of the EBV-producing cells and gp350- cells failed to activate; second, the anti-EBV antibody in immune human sera which enhanced activation specifically immunoprecipitated gp350 from membranes of B95-8 cells; third, a significant proportion of the C3 which became bound to the cells during activation was attached either to gp350 or to the anti-gp350 antibody found in immune human sera; and fourth, purified gp350, as well as EBV, efficiently activated the alternative pathway. These results indicate that gp350, an EBV envelope glycoprotein, is an efficient alternative pathway activator and its expression on cell membranes is associated with the ability to activate C. 相似文献

One common attribute of herpesviruses is the ability to establish latent, life-long infections. The role of virus-virus interaction in viral reactivation between or among herpesviruses has not been studied. Preliminary experiments in our laboratory had indicated that infection of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) genome-positive human lymphoid cell lines with human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) results in EBV reactivation in these cells. To further our knowledge of this complex phenomenon, we investigated the effect of HHV-6 infection on expression of the viral lytic cycle proteins of EBV. Our results indicate that HHV-6 upregulates, by up to 10-fold, expression of the immediate-early Zebra antigen and the diffuse and restricted (85 kDa) early antigens (EA-D and EA-R, respectively) in both EBV producer and nonproducer cell lines (i.e., P3HR1, Akata, and Raji). Maximal EA-D induction was observed at 72 h post-HHV-6 infection. Furthermore, expression of late EBV gene products, namely, the viral capsid antigen (125 kDa) and viral membrane glycoprotein gp350, was also increased in EBV producer cells (P3HR1 and Akata) following infection by HHV-6. By using dual-color membrane immunofluorescence, it was found that most of the cells expressing viral membrane glycoprotein gp350 were also positive for HHV-6 antigens, suggesting a direct effect of HHV-6 replication on induction of the EBV replicative cycle. No expression of late EBV antigens was observed in Raji cells following infection by HHV-6, implying a lack of functional complementation between the deleted form of EBV found in Raji cells and the superinfecting HHV-6. The susceptibility of the cell lines to infection by HHV-6 correlated with increased expression of various EBV proteins in that B95-8 cells, which are not susceptible to HHV-6 infection, did not show an increase in expression of EBV antigens following treatment with HHV-6. Moreover, UV light-irradiated or heat-inactivated HHV-6 had no upregulating effect on the Zebra antigen or EA-D in Raji cells, indicating that infectious virus is required for the observed effects of HHV-6 on these EBV products. These results show that HHV-6, another lymphotropic human herpesvirus, can activate EBV replication and may thus contribute to the pathogenesis of EBV-associated diseases. 相似文献

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) invasion of B-lymphocytes involves EBV gp350/220 binding to B-lymphocyte CR2. The anti-gp350 monoclonal antibody (mAb)-72A1 Fab inhibits this binding and therefore blocks EBV invasion of target cells. However, gp350/220 regions interacting with mAb 72A1 and involved in EBV invasion of target cells have not yet been identified. This work reports three gp350/220 regions, defined by peptide 11382, 11389, and 11416 sequences, that are involved in EBV binding to B-lymphocytes. Peptides 11382, 11389, and 11416 bound to CR2(+) but not to CR2(-) cells, inhibited EBV invasion of cord blood lymphocytes (CBLs), were recognized by mAb 72A1, and inhibited mAb 72A1 binding to EBV. Peptides 11382 and 11416 binding to peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) induced interleukin-6 protein synthesis in these cells, this phenomenon being inhibited by mAb 72A1. The same behavior has been reported for gp350/220 binding to PBLs. Anti-peptide 11382, 11389, and 11416 antibodies inhibited EBV binding and EBV invasion of PBLs and CBLs. Peptide 11382, 11389, and 11416 sequences presented homology with the C3dg regions coming into contact with CR2 (C3dg and gp350 bound to similar CR2 regions). These peptides could be used in designing strategies against EBV infection. 相似文献
