The leukemogenic membrane glycoprotein gp55, encoded by Friend spleen focus-forming virus (SFFV), induces erythroid cell proliferation through its interaction with the erythropoietin receptor (EPO-R). There are two forms of gp55 in SFFV-infected cells: an intracellular form (more than 95% of the total protein), which is localized within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membranes, and a cell surface form (about 3 to 5%). Because both forms of the viral proteins bind to EPO-R, it is not clear whether the viral protein induces mitogenesis intracellularly or at the cell surface. To address this question, we constructed an EPO-R mutant that contained a 6-amino-acid (DEKKMP) C-terminus ER retention signal. Biochemical and functional analyses with this mutant indicated that it was completely retained in the ER and not expressed at the cell surface. Further analysis showed that the mutant, like the wild-type EPO-R, interacted with SFFV gp55. However, this apparent intracellular interaction between the two proteins failed to induce growth factor-independent proliferation of Ba/F3 cells. Furthermore, spontaneous variants of the ER-retained EPO-R selected on the basis of their ability to induce cell proliferation when coexpressed with gp55 were exclusively expressed at the cell surface. Thus, our results support the hypothesis that the mitogenic activation of the EPO-R by gp55 requires the interaction of the two proteins at the cell surface. 相似文献

We used Southern blot hybridization to titrate and map restriction enzyme cleavage sites of a 6.3-kilobase-pair species of extrachromosomal viral DNA found in derivatives of the 745A line of murine erythroleukemia cells, which vary in their ability to be induced to differentiate by dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Greater than an eightfold variation was observed in the amount of this DNA, with the largest amounts being found in cells that were resistant to the induction of differentiation by DMSO. This increase in the level of extrachromosomal viral DNA was found to be dependent upon the continued presence of DMSO in the culture medium. The increase was shown not to be due to an immediate stimulatory effect of this agent on the synthesis or maintenance of this DNA, since cell lines sensitive to the differentiation-inducing effects of DMSO were shown to undergo a transient reduction in the amount of extrachromosomal viral DNA after the addition of DMSO to the culture medium. In addition to the 6.3-kilobase-pair linear form found in the cytoplasm, in some preparations two hybridizing bands were observed that migrated in agarose gels in the position expected of covalently closed circular species of viral DNA. Restriction enzyme mapping of the cytoplasmic linear form indicated a close relationship of this DNA to two polycythemic strains of spleen focus-forming virus that have been molecularly cloned by other workers. No obvious change in the number or arrangement of chromosomal viral sequences could be detected after treating cells with DMSO. Thus, the exposure of murine erythroleukemia cells to DMSO caused an obvious change in the amount of extrachromosomal spleen focus-forming virus DNA but no obvious change in the integration of the provirus. 相似文献

Using the Southern blot procedure, we studied the presumed spleen focus-forming virus (SFFV) provirus integration sites in the genome of the premalignant and the malignant cells isolated during the course of Friend erythroleukemia. Two restriction endonucleases, PstI and BamHI, discriminated the presumed integrated SFFV proviruses from the endogenous xenotropic-mink cell focus-forming viral sequences. No SFFV integration sites were detectable in the premalignant cells, suggesting a random integration of SFFV proviruses in the genome of these cells. In contrast, SFFV proviruses were detected at a single or very few sites in the genome of all malignant cells we analyzed. These results indicate that the event leading to the malignant transformation in acute Friend leukemia is clonal. In two of the six animals examined, tumors cells isolated from the spleens and the livers of individual mice showed identical SFFV integration patterns. This last result suggests that in some cases different tumors in a same leukemic animal could be derived from a unique clonal event. 相似文献

The Friend spleen focus-forming virus (F-SFFV) released from cultured erythroleukemia cells (cell line F4-6/K) was cloned free of its helper lymphatic leukemia virus (F-MuLV). After allowing adsorption to Sc-1 fibroblasts at a low multiplicity of infection, the cells were seeded individually into wells of a microtitier test plate and the resulting colonies were grown into large cultures. Among 14 of these cell cultures that have been analyzed thoroughly, 6 contained F-SFFV alone, 1 contained F-MuLV plus F-SFFV, and 7 were uninfected. Each of the Sc-1 cell lines which had been infected with cloned F-SFFV contained a glycoprotein with an apparent molecular weight of 55,000 (gp55) that was absent from the cell lines that lacked F-SFFV. gp55 was also present in Friend erythroleukemia cells and in fibroblasts infected with an F-SFFV that had been doubly cloned in another laboratory. These results indicate that gp55 is encoded by the F-SFFV genome. gp55 has the following additional properties. It can be immunoprecipitated with antiserum made to the F-MuLV virion envelope glycoprotein (gp75). Its unglycosylated polypeptide, formed in cells treated with 2-deoxy-D-glucose, has a molecular weight of approximately 45,000. Its tryptic peptide map contains peptides in common with F-MuLV gp75 but it also contains unique peptides. It appears to be absent or present in only low concentrations in erythroleukemia cell plasma membranes as determined by lactoperoxidase-catalyzed iodination, and it accumulates intracellularly in large amounts. In addition, it is absent from released virions. The majority of the cellular gp55 has an isoelectric point of 8.5 to 9.0. These results are consistent with the idea that an env gene recombination event was involved in the origin of F-SFFV. 相似文献

The erythropoietin receptor (EPO-R), a member of the cytokine receptor superfamily, can be activated by binding either erythropoietin (EPO) or gp55, the Friend spleen focus-forming virus glycoprotein. The highly specific interaction between gp55 and EPO-R triggers cell proliferation and thereby causes the first stage of Friend virus-induced erythroleukemia. We have generated functional chimeric receptors containing regions of the EPO-R and the interleukin-3 receptor (AIC2A polypeptide), a related cytokine receptor which does not interact with gp55. All chimeric receptors were expressed at similar levels, had similar binding affinities for EPO, and conferred EPO-dependent cell growth. Only those chimeric receptors which contained the EPO-R transmembrane region were activated by gp55. These results demonstrate that the transmembrane region of the EPO-R is critical for activation by gp55. In addition, analysis of a soluble, secreted EPO-R and cysteine point mutants of the EPO-R show that the extracytoplasmic region of the EPO-R specifically interacts with gp55. 相似文献

The Friend spleen focus-forming virus (SFFV) gp55 glycoprotein binds to the erythropoietin receptor (EPO-R), causing constitutive receptor signaling and the first stage of Friend erythroleukemia. We have used three independent strategies to further define this transforming molecular interaction. First, using a retroviral selection strategy, we have isolated the cDNAs encoding three fusion polypeptides containing regions of both EPO-R and gp55. These fusion proteins, like full-length gp55, transformed the Ba/F3 factor-dependent hematopoietic cell line and localized the transforming activity of gp55 to its transmembrane domain. Second, we have isolated a mutant of gp55 (F-gp55-M1) which binds, but fails to activate, EPO-R. We have compared the transforming activity of this gp55 mutant with the EPO-R-gp55 fusion proteins and with other variants of gp55, including wild-type polycythemia Friend gp55 and Rauscher gp55. All of the fusion polypeptides and mutant gp55 polypeptides were expressed at comparable levels, and all coimmunoprecipitated with wild-type EPO-R, but only the Friend gp55 and the EPO-R-gp55 fusion proteins constitutively activated wild-type EPO-R. Third, we have examined the specificity of the EPO-R-gp55 interaction by comparing the differential activation of murine and human EPO-R by gp55. Wild-type gp55 had a highly specific interaction with murine EPO-R; gp55 bound, but did not activate, human EPO-R. 相似文献

The pathogenic Friend virus complex is of considerable interest in that, although members of this group are genetically related, they differ markedly in biochemical and biological properties. Heteroduplex mapping of molecular clones of the Friend virus complex, which includes the replication-competent ecotropic Friend murine leukemia virus (F-MuLV) and mink cell focus-forming virus (F-MCF) and replication-defective polycythemia- and anemia-inducing strains of spleen focus-forming virus (SFFVp and SFFVa, respectively), was employed to provide insight into the molecular basis of their relationships. In heteroduplexes of F-MuLV X F-MCF, a major substitution of 0.89 kilobases in the env gene of F-MCF was discerned. Heteroduplexes of SFFVp X F-MuLV or F-MCF and SFFVa X F-MuLV or F-MCF showed several major deletions in the pol gene region and a single major deletion in the 3' half of the env gene region of SFFVp and SFFVa. A major substitution of 0.89 kilobases was mapped to the 5' end of the env deletion of SFFVp and SFFVa in heteroduplexes with F-MuLV, similar to that seen in F-MuLV X F-MCF heteroduplexes. In contrast, this env gene region was totally homologous in F-MCF X SFFVp or SFFVa and SFFVp X SFFVa heteroduplexes. Our results suggest that (i) both SFFVp and SFFVa lack part of the env gene at its 3' end, corresponding to the p15(E) coding region, (ii) major deletions occur in the pol and env genes which account for the replication defectiveness of SFFVp and SFFVa, (iii) minor substitutions occur in the gag gene region of SFFVa that are not present in SFFVp, F-MuLV, or F-MCF, (iv) a major substitution exists in the gp70 region of the env gene between F-MuLV and F-MCF that probably accounts for the differences in their host range specificities, (v) this substitution in F-MCF is identical to the gp70 part of the gp52 coding region of SFFVp and SFFVa, and (vi) heteroduplexes to F-MCF show unambiguously that no additional large substitutions are present in SFFVp or SFFVa that could account for differences in their leukemogenicity. 相似文献

The proliferation and differentiation of erythroid cells is a highly regulated process that is controlled primarily at the level of interaction of erythropoietin (Epo) with its specific cell surface receptor (EpoR). However, this process is deregulated in mice infected with the Friend spleen focus-forming virus (SFFV). Unlike normal erythroid cells, erythroid cells from SFFV-infected mice are able to proliferate and differentiate in the absence of Epo, resulting in erythroid hyperplasia and leukemia. Over the past 20 years, studies have been carried out to identify the viral genes responsible for the pathogenicity of SFFV and to understand how expression of these genes leads to the deregulation of erythropoiesis in infected animals. The studies have revealed that SFFV encodes a unique envelope glycoprotein which interacts specifically with the EpoR at the cell surface, resulting in activation of the receptor and subsequent activation of erythroid signal transduction pathways. This leads to the proliferation and differentiation of erythroid precursor cells in the absence of Epo. Although the precise mechanism by which the viral protein activates the EpoR is not yet known, it has been proposed that it causes dimerization of the receptor, resulting in constitutive activation of Epo signal transduction pathways. While interaction of the SFFV envelope glycoprotein with the EpoR leads to Epo-independent erythroid hyperplasia, this is not sufficient to transform these cells. Transformation requires the viral activation of the cellular gene Sfpi-1, whose product is thought to block erythroid cell differentiation. By understanding how SFFV can deregulate erythropoiesis, we may gain insights into the causes and treatment of related diseases in man. 相似文献

Although Fv-2r homozygous mice are resistant to leukemias induced either by an erythropoietin-encoding virus or by wild-type Friend virus (FV) (M. E. Hoatlin, S. L. Kozak, F. Lilly, A. Chakraborti, C. A. Kozak, and D. Kabat, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 87:9985-9989, 1990), they are susceptible to some variants of FV (R. A. Steeves, E. A. Mirand, A. Bulba, and P. J. Trudel, Int. J. Cancer 5:349-356, 1970; R. W. Geib, M. B. Seaward, M. L. Stevens, C.-L. Cho, and M. Majumdar, Virus Res. 14:161-174, 1989). To localize the virus gene involved in influencing the host range, we cloned and sequenced the env gene of the BB6 variant of FV (Steeves et al., Int. J. Cancer 5:349-356, 1970). In comparison with the wild-type env gene, the BB6 variant contains a 159-bp deletion that eliminates the membrane-proximal portion of the extracellular domain and 58 point mutations resulting in 13 amino acid changes. Substitution of the variant env gene for the wild-type env gene resulted in a recombinant virus that produced a Friend virus-like disease in Fv-2r homozygotes. Our results identify the spleen focus-forming virus env gene as the viral gene involved in this virus-host interaction. Additionally, they suggest that the product of the Fv-2r gene modifies the interaction between the spleen focus-forming virus envelope protein and the erythropoietin receptor. 相似文献

The 3' half of the env gene of the dualtropic Friend mink cell focus-forming virus was modified by replacing the restriction enzyme fragment of the genome DNA with the corresponding fragment of the acutely leukemogenic, polycythemia-inducing strain of Friend spleen focus-forming virus (F-SFFVP) genome DNA. Replacement with the fragment of F-SFFVP env containing the 585-bp deletion, the 6-bp duplication, and the single-base insertion converted the resulting chimeric genome so that the mutant had a pathogenic activity like that of F-SFFVP. Replacement with the fragment containing only the 585-bp deletion did not result in a pathogenic virus. However, when this virus pseudotyped by Friend murine leukemia virus was passaged in newborn DBA/2 mice, we could recover weakly pathogenic viruses with a high frequency. Molecular analysis of the genome of the recovered virus revealed the presence of a single-base insertion in the same T5 stretch where the wild-type F-SFFV env has the single-base insertion. These results provided evidence that the unique genomic structures present in the 3' half of F-SFFV env are the sole determinants that distinguish the pathogenicity of F-SFFV from that of Friend mink cell focus-forming virus. The importance of the dualtropic env-specific sequence present in the 5' half of F-SFFV env for the pathogenic activity was evaluated by constructing a mutant F-SFFV genome in which this sequence was replaced by the ecotropic env sequence of Friend murine leukemia virus and by examining its pathogenicity. The results indicated that the dualtropic env-specific sequence was essential to pathogenic activity. 相似文献

The secondary envelope-gene product, glycoprotein 65 (gp65), of the polycythemia-inducing variant of Friend spleen focus-forming virus (F-SFFVp) was isolated from F-SFFVp-infected normal rat kidney cells cultivated in the presence or absence (-Glc) of glucose. Oligosaccharide side chains present were sequentially liberated by treatment of tryptic glycopeptides with endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H and peptide N-glycosidase F and fractionated by high-performance liquid chromatography. The glycans were characterized by digestion with exoglycosidases, by chromatographic comparison with oligosaccharide standards and by methylation analysis. The results demonstrate that gp65 contains oligomannosidic, hybrid and N-acetyllactosaminic glycans. The oligomannosidic glycans represent the same partially glucosylated species with six to nine mannose residues present in F-SFFVp gp52, the biosynthetic precursor of gp65 [Strube, K.-H. Schott, H.-H. and Geyer, R. (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 3762-3771]. Oligosaccharides of the hybrid type were found to comprise one sialylated lactosamine unit and three or four alpha-linked mannose residues. Analysis of the N-acetyllactosaminic glycans revealed that gp65 carries fucosylated, partially sialylated bi-antennary, tri-antennary and tetra-antennary oligosaccharides, in addition to incomplete species. The glycosylation of gp65(-Glc) is characterized by the presence of oligomannosidic glycans with five to nine mannose residues, similar hybrid-type species and by increased amounts of incomplete N-acetyllactosaminic oligosaccharides, a decrease in sialylation and the lack of tetra-antennary species. 相似文献

We have analyzed normal rat kidney cells nonproductively infected with the Friend strain of spleen focus-forming virus (SFFV) for the presence of murine leukemia virus-specific type C viral proteins. SFFV was found to code for the p15 and p12 proteins of Friend-murine leukemia virus as determined by immunological typing of their antigenic determinants. Molecular-size analysis of p15 and p12 proteins in SFFV nonproductively infected normal rat kidney cells indicated that these proteins are translated as parts of polyprotein molecules. The apparent molecular weights of the polypeptides bearing p12 antigenic determinants revealed the presence of translational products of the SFFV genome that could not be accounted for by know type C virus helper structural proteins. 相似文献

Carbohydrate structure of glycoprotein 52 encoded by the polycythemia-inducing strain of Friend spleen focus-forming virus 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The primary envelope (env) gene product of the polycythemia-inducing variant of Friend spleen focus-forming virus (F-SFFVP), representing a glycoprotein with an apparent Mr of 52,000 (gp52), was isolated from F-SFFVP-infected normal rat kidney cells metabolically labeled with [2-3H]mannose in the presence or absence of glucose. Structures of the oligosaccharides present were determined by micromethylation analysis, acetolysis, and digestion with exoglycosidases. Gp52 radiolabeled in the presence of glucose contains solely oligomannosidic glycans comprising 6 to 9 mannose residues (Man6-9GlcNAc2), some of which carry additional glucose. The structures of the glycans found reflect the typical intermediates of oligosaccharide processing. The glycosylation of gp52 isolated from glucose-deprived cells (-Glc), however, is characterized by increased amounts of Man5-7 species comprising other structural isomers. Only gp52 (-Glc) glycans are, in part, further processed yielding incomplete complex-type oligosaccharides. Our results demonstrate that the limited post-translational processing of the primary F-SFFVP env gene product is neither due to aberrant trimming of its oligomannosidic glycans nor due to transfer of immature lipid-linked oligosaccharide-intermediates as observed in glucose-starved cells. 相似文献

The protein encoded by the envelope gene of Friend spleen focus-formingvirus is responsible for the acute leukaemogenicity of thisvirus. In order to correlate glycosylation and intracellularprocessing of this protein with viral pathogenicity, envelopegene products of pathogenic and apathogenic glycosylation mutantswere expressed in Rat-1 cells and metabolically labelled with[6-3H] glucosamine. Following immunoprecipitation, primary andsecondary gene products (gp55, gp65) were separated by preparativepolyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Oligosaccharides were releasedfrom tryptic glycopeptides by treatment with endo-ß-N-acetylglucosaminidaseH (gp55), peptide-N4-(N-acetyl-ß-glucosaminyl)asparagineamidase F (gp65) or by reductive ß-elimination. Resultingglycans were characterized by cochromatography with authenticoligosaccharide standards using different HPLC systems and digestionwith exoglycosidases. The results revealed that the primaryenvelope gene products of pathogenic glycosylation mutants were,in part, further processed in Rat-1 cells similar to wild-typeglycoprotein, resulting in polypeptides carrying complex-typeN-glycans as well as partially sialylated O-linked oligosaccharides.In contrast, corresponding glycoproteins encoded by apathogenicmutants were found to remain at the level of the primary translationproduct exclusively comprising high-mannose-type N-glycans.Hence, intracellular maturation of the envelope gene productsin this model cell line seems to correlate with the in vivopathogenicityof the glycosylation mutants studied. carbohydrate structure glycoprotein murine leukaemia virus oligosaccharide processing SFFV 相似文献

A nucleotide sequence analysis carried out on the envelope gene of the anemia-inducing strain of the Friend spleen focus-forming virus (F-SFFVA) reveals that its product has some unique features in common with previously described polycythemia-inducing strains of F-SFFV (F-SFFVP). (i) It contains an amino terminus that is highly related to the gp70 of mink cell focus-inducing viruses, (ii) it is a fusion protein containing the amino terminus of gp70 and the carboxy terminus of p15E, and (iii) it lacks the R-peptide normally found at the carboxy end of the p15E region. Although the envelope genes of F-SFFVA and F-SFFVP are quite similar overall, they do show sequence variation, particularly at the 3' end in the p15E-related region. These variations may contribute to previously observed differences in the response of F-SFFVP- and F-SFFVA-infected erythroid cells to regulatory hormone or to differences in the way the envelope glycoproteins are processed. The long terminal repeat regions of F-SFFVA and the Lilly-Steeves strain of F-SFFVP were also sequenced and compared with each other and with a previously published sequence of another F-SFFVP long terminal repeat. The sequences were found to be reasonably similar to each other but different from their ecotropic parent, Friend murine leukemia virus, as a result of a deletion of one copy of the direct tandem repeat in the enhancer regions. The observation that all SFFVS have this common change in the long terminal repeat enhancer region raises the possibility that it is required for pathogenicity. 相似文献

The spleen focus-forming virus (SFFV), a rapidly transforming, replication-defective virus in Friend virus (FV) complex that is readily neutralized by antisera directed against its helper virus, was examined for the presence of SFFV-specific antigens. Antisera prepared in Fisher rats against an SFFV-infected Fisher rat embryo fibroblast line (SFFV-FRE) neutralized SFFV effectively, but not Friend-associated murine leukemia virus (F-MuLV) whether the latter was tested alone or was mixed with SFFV in the FV complex. In contrast, serum from mice immunized with SFFV-infected nonproducer mouse cells had little or no neutralizing activity against SFFV. Both absorption and immunoprecipitation studies indicate that the SFFV-specific antigen is immunologically related to xenotropic murine leukemia virus antigens. The role of both SFFV- and F-MuLV-specific antigens in the neutralization of SFFV suggests that this defective virus could be an antigenic mosaic and that viruses in the FV complex may participate in a undirectional form of phenotypic mixing. 相似文献
