鸡痘病毒复制非必需区的选择对重组鸡痘病毒免疫效力的影响

母源抗体的干扰是重组鸡痘病毒(FPV)活载体疫苗至今未能得到大规模推广应用的主要原因,而选择适当的FPV复制非必需区可能是解决这一问题的方法之一。根据已发表的美国致病株FPV的基因组设计两对引物,用PCR方法扩增FPV假定复制非必需区的两个侧翼区FPV1和FPV2 ,利用此假定复制非必需区构建FPV表达载体pP12LS及表达ZJ1株新城疫病毒(NDV)F基因的转移载体pP12LSF。pP12LSF与2 82E4株FPV共转染鸡胚成纤维细胞(CEF) ,经数轮蓝斑筛选得到纯化的重组病毒rFPV_FSC。重组FPV在CEF上连续传2 0代仍具有良好的遗传稳定性。对重组FPV进行免疫效力试验,在SPF鸡上,重组病毒rFPV_FSC和与之仅有复制非必需区差异的rFPV_FSB均能抵抗NDV强毒的攻击,提供10 0 %的保护。但在有母源抗体的商品鸡上,rFPV_FSC与rFPV_FSB的免疫效力却有显著差异,保护率分别为10 0 %和6 1 5 4 % ,rFPV_FSC的免疫效力与NDV常规油苗相当。试验结果表明,母源抗体对重组FPV的免疫效力有一定的影响,而选择合适的FPV复制非必需区是克服母源抗体并提高重组FPV免疫效力的有效策略之一

Raf-1 kinase associates with Hepatitis C virus NS5A and regulates viral replication

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a positive-strand RNA virus that frequently causes persistent infection associated with severe liver disease. HCV nonstructural protein 5A (NS5A) is essential for viral replication. Here, the kinase Raf-1 was identified as a novel cellular binding partner of NS5A, binding to the C-terminal domain of NS5A. Raf-1 colocalizes with NS5A in the HCV replication complex. The interaction of NS5A with Raf-1 results in increased Raf-1 phosphorylation at serine 338. Integrity of Raf-1 is crucial for HCV replication: inhibition of Raf-1 by the small-molecule inhibitor BAY43-9006 or downregulation of Raf-1 by siRNA attenuates viral replication.

An application of gene comparative image for predicting the effect on replication ratio by HBV virus gene missense mutation

Hepatitis B viruses (HBVs) show instantaneous and high-ratio mutations when they are replicated, some sorts of which significantly affect the efficiency of virus replication through enhancing or depressing the viral replication, while others have no influence at all. The mechanism of gene expression is closely correlated with its gene sequence. With the rapid increase in the number of newly found sequences entering into data banks, it is highly desirable to develop an automated method for simulating the gene regulating function. The establishment of such a predictor will no doubt expedite the process of prioritizing genes and proteins identified by genomics efforts as potential molecular targets for drug design. Based on the power of cellular automata (CA) in treating complex systems with simple rules, a novel method to present HBV gene image has been introduced. The results show that the images thus obtained can very efficiently simulate the effects of the gene missense mutation on the virus replication. It is anticipated that CA may also serve as a useful vehicle for many other studies on complicated biological systems.     

The precore gene of the woodchuck hepatitis virus genome is not essential for viral replication in the natural host.

A number of naturally occurring hepatitis B virus mutants that cannot synthesize the virus precore protein have been identified. Such mutants have been associated with more severe forms of hepatitis, including fulminant hepatitis. The most common mutation observed is a substitution of G to A in the distal precore gene that converts a codon specifying Trp (TGG) to a termination codon (TAG). Using oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis, we have produced the same point mutation in the precore gene of an infectious clone of woodchuck hepatitis virus (WHV). Transfection of mutant WHV DNA into the livers of adult woodchucks resulted in replication of the mutant in three of three susceptible animals. Levels of virus replication and transient elevations in liver enzymes in serum were similar to those of adult animals infected with wild-type WHV. Virions, found to possess mutant precore genes by polymerase chain reaction amplification and DNA sequencing, were recovered from the serum of one of the animals and inoculated subcutaneously into neonatal woodchucks. They produced infection in all five animals studied. The level of virus replication in neonatal animals infected with this mutant virus was comparable to that found in neonatal woodchucks infected with wild-type WHV, but none of five woodchucks infected with the precore mutant virus as neonates became chronic virus carriers. It was concluded that the precore gene of the WHV genome is not essential for virus replication in the natural host but may be important for chronic infection.     

The vaccinia virus G1L putative metalloproteinase is essential for viral replication in vivo

The function of the putative metalloproteinase encoded by the vaccinia virus G1L gene is unknown. To address this question, we have generated a vaccinia virus strain in which expression of the G1L gene is dependent on the addition of tetracycline (TET) when infection proceeds in a cell line expressing the tetracycline repressor. The vvtetOG1L virus replicated similarly to wild-type Western Reserve (WR) virus in these cells when TET was present but was arrested at a late stage in viral maturation in the absence of TET. This arrest resulted in the accumulation of 98.5% round immature virus particles compared to 6.9% at a similar time point when TET was present. Likewise, the titer of infectious virus progeny decreased by 98.9% +/- 0.97% when the vvtetOG1L virus was propagated in the absence of TET. Mutant virus replication was partially rescued by plasmid-encoded G1L, but not by G1L containing an HXXEH motif mutated to RXXQR. Modeling of G1L revealed a predicted structural similarity to the alpha-subunit of Saccharomyces cerevisiae mitochondrial processing peptidase (alpha-MPP). The HXXEH motif of G1L perfectly overlaps the HXXDR motif of alpha-MPP in this model. These results demonstrate that G1L is essential for virus maturation and suggest that G1L is a metalloproteinase with structural homology to alpha-MPP. However, no obvious effects on the expression and processing of the vaccinia virus major core proteins were observed in the G1L conditional mutant in the absence of TET compared to results for the TET and wild-type WR controls, suggesting that G1L activity is required after this step in viral morphogenesis.     

Temperature-sensitive vaccinia virus mutants identify a gene with an essential role in viral replication.

Vaccinia virus mutants ts2 and ts25, members of the same complementation group, exhibit a temperature-dependent arrest at the stage of viral DNA replication. The lesions responsible for the mutant phenotypes have been localized to the far left region of the HindIII B genomic fragment by marker rescue studies. Hybrid selection analyses established that the DNA fragments positive for rescue represented the first open reading frame of the HindIII B fragment and encoded a 30-kilodalton protein. The gene is expressed early after infection as a rightwardly transcribed 1-kilobase-pair mRNA whose coordinates were determined by S1 nuclease mapping. To further the phenotypic analysis of the mutants, the accumulation of viral DNA sequences during permissive and nonpermissive infections was quantitated. The extent of the DNA- phenotype was shown to vary in different cell types. In mouse L cells at either high or low multiplicity of infection, nonpermissive DNA synthesis was less than 5% of that seen in permissive infections. This severe defect was mirrored by correspondingly low viral yields. In infections of BSC40 monkey cells, however, the deficiencies in both DNA synthesis and virus production were far less severe. For one mutant (ts2), the temperature sensitivity in BSC40 cells varied inversely with the multiplicity of infection.     

Interaction of the innate immune system with positive-strand RNA virus replication organelles

The potential health risks associated with (re-)emerging positive-strand RNA (+RNA) viruses emphasizes the need for understanding host-pathogen interactions for these viruses. The innate immune system forms the first line of defense against pathogenic organisms like these and is responsible for detecting pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). Viral RNA is a potent inducer of antiviral innate immune signaling, provoking an antiviral state by directing expression of interferons (IFNs) and pro-inflammatory cytokines. However, +RNA viruses developed various methods to avoid detection and downstream signaling, including isolation of viral RNA replication in membranous viral replication organelles (ROs). These structures therefore play a central role in infection, and consequently, loss of RO integrity might simultaneously result in impaired viral replication and enhanced antiviral signaling. This review summarizes the first indications that the innate immune system indeed has tools to disrupt viral ROs and other non- or aberrant-self membrane structures, and may do this by marking these membranes with proteins such as microtubule-associated protein 1A/1B-light chain 3 (LC3) and ubiquitin, resulting in the recruitment of IFN-inducible GTPases. Further studies should evaluate whether this process forms a general effector mechanism in +RNA virus infection, thereby creating the opportunity for development of novel antiviral therapies.
