CMV与T7启动子对仙台病毒微小基因组拯救效率的比较

构建一种以分泌型荧光素酶基因(Gluc)作为报告基因的仙台病毒BB1株微小基因组质粒,比较了CMV启动子与T7启动子对仙台病毒微小基因组的拯救效率。首先设计并合成锤头状核酶序列,仙台病毒trailer、L基因非编码区、N基因非编码区和leader序列以及丁型肝炎病毒核酶序列,插入含有CMV和T7双启动子的质粒pVAX1中,获得仙台微小基因组的通用型载体pVAX-miniSeV。将Gluc基因插入pVAX-miniSeV中,分别获得正向插入的仙台病毒微小基因组载体pVAX-miniSeV-Gluc(+)和反向插入的pVAX-miniSeV-Gluc(-)。用pVAX-miniSeV-Gluc(+)转染BHK21细胞能在上清中检测到高水平的Gluc活性,表明其中的CMV启动子具有正常转录功能。将pVAX-miniSeVGluc(-)和仙台病毒N、P、L蛋白表达质粒共转染BSR T7/5细胞(稳定表达T7RNA聚合酶的BHK-21细胞)检测到Gluc的高效表达,表明pVAX-miniSeV-Gluc(-)能够被有效拯救;但在BHK-21细胞中却未检测到Gluc的有效表达,提示该载体中的CMV启动子对仙台病毒微小基因组的拯救效率可能没有明显作用。为了进一步了解CMV与T7启动子各自对于仙台病毒微小基因组拯救的作用,本研究又构建了单独含有CMV或T7启动子的仙台病毒微小基因组载体pCMV-miniSeV-Gluc(-)和pT7-miniSeV-Gluc(-)。将这两种载体和仙台病毒N、P、L蛋白表达质粒分别共转染BSR T7/5细胞,结果pT7-miniSeV-Gluc(-)共转染组检测到了Gluc的高效表达,而pCMV-miniSeV-Gluc(-)共转染组未检测到,证实了通用型载体pVAX-miniSeV中仅T7启动子对仙台病毒微小基因组的拯救起了关键作用,而CMV启动子作用不明显。本研究成功构建了一种通用型双启动子仙台病毒微小基因组载体pVAX-miniSeV,并证明了T7启动子系统对仙台病毒微小基因组拯救的关键作用。本研究为下一步构建仙台病毒全基因感染性克隆打下了基础。

目的 本研究旨在探讨猪繁殖与呼吸综合征病毒(PRRSV)感染性cDNA克隆作为猪圆环病毒(PCV2)的主要免疫原开放阅读框架2(ORF2)表达载体的可行性,以及利用重组病毒对PRRSV复制转录过程进行解剖。方法 以北美株PRRSV感染性克隆pAPRRS为平台进行反向遗传操作,分别在pAPRRS的ORF1和ORF2间,ORF5和ORF6间,ORF6和ORF7间插入PCV2ORF2,且对拯救病毒vPCV进行了病毒学及分子生物学鉴定。结果 vPCV的sg mRNA2.1利用了PRRSV mRNA2的转录调控序列(TRS),形成由PRRSVGP2和PCV2衣壳蛋白组成的sgm RNA2.1。外源基因的插入同时也导致重组病毒启用新的TRS而产生3条新亚基因组,其中sgm RNA2.2和sgm RNA2.3采用PCV2上的序列来取代PRRSVRNA2本身的TRS;另一条sgm RNA2.4则为非经典型亚基因组,其TRS在PRRSV相应的AUG下游。结论 2株PRRSV-PCV2重组病毒可以稳定传代,为进一步研发PRRSV遗传标疫苗奠定了基础;插入片段上一些类似TRS序列的引入及插入片段(718bp)过长导致PRRSV ORF2 TRS 本身和其两翼序列的RNA结构变化是引起重组病毒遗传不稳定性的最主要原因; PRRSV可以利用TRS样外源序列作为转录启动子,这为进一步解剖PRRSV复制转录过程奠定了基础。

Conserved Region of Mammalian Retrovirus RNA

The viral RNAs of various mammalian retroviruses contain highly conserved sequences close to their 3' ends. This was demonstrated by interviral molecular hybridization between fractionated viral complementary DNA (cDNA) and RNA. cDNA near the 3' end (cDNA(3')) from a rat virus (RPL strain) was fractionated by size and mixed with mouse virus RNA (Rauscher leukemia virus). No hybridization occurred with total cDNA (cDNA(total)), in agreement with previous results, but a cross-reacting sequence was found with the fractionated cDNA(3'). The sequences between 50 to 400 nucleotides from the 3' terminus of heteropolymeric RNA were most hybridizable. The rat viral cDNA(3') hybridized with mouse virus RNA more extensively than with RNA of remotely related retroviruses. The related viral sequence of the rodent viruses (mouse and rat) showed as much divergence in heteroduplex thermal denaturation profiles as did the unique sequence DNA of these two rodents. This suggests that over a period of time, rodent viruses have preserved a sequence with changes correlated to phylogenetic distance of hosts. The cross-reacting sequence of replication-competent retroviruses was conserved even in the genome of the replication-defective sarcoma virus and was also located in these genomes near the 3' end of 30S RNA. A fraction of RD114 cDNA(3'), corresponding to the conserved region, cross-hybridized extensively with RNA of a baboon endogenous virus (M7). Fractions of similar size prepared from cDNA(3') of MPMV, a primate type D virus, hybridized with M7 RNA to a lesser extent. Hybridization was not observed between Mason-Pfizer monkey virus and M7 if total cDNA's were incubated with viral RNAs. The degree of cross-reaction of the shared sequence appeared to be influenced by viral ancestral relatedness and host cell phylogenetic relationships. Thus, the strikingly high extent of cross-reaction at the conserved region between rodent viruses and simian sarcoma virus and between baboon virus and RD114 virus may reflect ancestral relatedness of the viruses. Slight cross-reaction at the site between type B and C viruses of rodents (mouse mammary tumor virus and RPL virus, 58-2T) or type C and D viruses of primates (M7, RD114, and Mason-Pfizer monkey virus) may have arisen at the conserved region through a mechanism that depends more on the phylogenetic relatedness of the host cells than on the viral type or origin. Determining the sequence of the conserved region may help elucidate this mechanism. The conserved sequences in retroviruses described here may be an important functional unit for the life cycle of many retroviruses.     

At least 104 nucleotides are transposed from the 5' terminus of the avian sarcoma virus genome to the 5' termini of smaller viral mRNAs.

Cells producing avian sarcoma virus (ASV) contain at least three virus-specific mRNAs, two of which are encoded within the 3' half of the viral genome. Each of these viral RNAs can hybridize with single-stranded DNA(cDNA5') that is complementary to a sequence of 101 nucleotides found at the 5' terminus of the ASV genome, but not within the 3' half of the genome. We proposed previously (Weiss, Varmus and Bishop, 1977) that this nucleotide sequence may be transposed to the 5' termini of viral mRNAs during the genesis of these RNAs. We now substantiate this proposal by reporting the isolation and chemical characterization of the nucleotide sequences complementary to cDNA5' in the genome and mRNAs of the Prague B strain of ASV. We isolated the three identified classes of ASVmRNA (38, 28 and 21S) by molecular hybridization; each class of RNA contained a "capped" oligonucleotide identical to that found at the 5' terminus of the ASV genome. When hybridized with cDNA5', each class of RNA gave rise to RNAase-resistant duplex hybrids that probably encompassed the full extent of cDNA5'. The molar yields of duplex conformed approximately to the number of virus-specific RNA molecules in the initial samples; hence most if not all of the molecules of virus-specific RNA could give rise to the duplexes. The duplexes prepared from the various RNAs all contained the capped oligonucleotide found at the 5' terminus of the viral genome and had identical "fingerprints" when analyzed by two-dimensional fractionation following hydrolysis with RNAase T1. In contrast, RNA representing the 3' half of the ASV genome did not form hybrids with cDNA5'. We conclude that a sequence of more than 100 nucleotides is transposed from the 5' end of the ASV genome to the 5' termini of smaller viral RNAs during the genesis of these RNAs. Transposition of nucleotide sequences during the production of mRNA has now been described for three families of animal viruses and may be a common feature of mRNA biogenesis in eucaryotic cells. The mechanism of transposition, however, and the function of the transposed sequences are not known.     

Deletion mapping of Sindbis virus DI RNAs derived from cDNAs defines the sequences essential for replication and packaging

Defective-interfering (DI) genomes of a virus contain sequence information essential for their replication and packaging. They need not contain any coding information and therefore are a valuable tool for identifying cis-acting, regulatory sequences in a viral genome. To identify these sequences in a DI genome of Sindbis virus, we cloned a cDNA copy of a complete DI genome directly downstream of the promoter for the SP6 bacteriophage DNA dependent RNA polymerase. The cDNA was transcribed into RNA, which was transfected into chicken embryo fibroblasts in the presence of helper Sindbis virus. After one to two passages the DI RNA became the major viral RNA species in infected cells. Data from a series of deletions covering the entire DI genome show that only sequences in the 162 nucleotide region at the 5' terminus and in the 19 nucleotide region at the 3' terminus are specifically required for replication and packaging of these genomes.     

Molecular cloning and partial sequencing of hepatitis A viral cDNA.

Hepatitis A virus was purified from infected monkey kidney cell cultures, and the viral RNA was used to synthesize double-stranded cDNA. This cDNA was cloned either after insertion into a plasmid-primed synthesis system or after insertion into the PstI site of pBR322. The resulting clones were mapped by restriction endonuclease analysis and by cross hybridization of the viral inserts to generate a composite map which represented at least 97% of the viral genome, lacking ca. 220 bases from the 5' end of the genome. The clones were verified to be hepatitis A virus specific based on their positive hybridization to viral RNA and to total hepatitis A virus-infected cellular RNA from a heterologous marmoset host system. The nucleotide sequence of 3,054 base pairs of cDNA homologous to the 5' half of the viral genome was determined, and an open reading frame of 854 consecutive coding triplets was identified. In addition, sequences which encode the VP-1 and VP-3 viral structural proteins were located in the nucleotide sequence.     

本氏烟Ⅰ型启动子的克隆及其转录起始位点分析

启动子是转录水平上一个重要的调控元件,其决定着基因的表达模式和表达强度。Ⅰ型启动子具有高转录活性和种属间特异性等特点。如将其应用于植物RNA病毒载体表达系统,有利于提高表达系统的表达效率和生物安全性。本氏烟(Nicotiana benthaminana)是一种被广泛地应用于植物生物反应器和植物病理学的模式生物,但是现有核酸数据库中尚没有其Ⅰ型启动子的相关信息。因此,克隆本氏烟Ⅰ型启动子并分析其转录起始位点就具有重要的应用价值。通过半巢式PCR获得了514 bp的本氏烟Ⅰ型启动子序列(KC352713);生物信息学分析初步预测其转录起始位点位于其核心序列TATA(G)TA(N)GGGGG中的第3位A处;通过植物RNA病毒表达载体和5'RACE技术在体内验证本氏烟Ⅰ型启动子转录起始位点与生物信息学预测结果一致。研究结果为深入研究Ⅰ型启动子和构建Ⅰ型启动子介导转录的植物RNA病毒载体表达系统奠定了基础。     

Structural complexity of defective-interfering RNAs of Semliki Forest virus as revealed by analysis of complementary DNA.

The 18S defective interfering RNA of Semliki Forest virus has been reverse transcribed to cDNA, which was shown to be heterogeneous by restriction enzyme analysis. After transformation to E.coli, using pBR322 as a vector, two clones, pKTH301 and pKTH309 with inserts of 1.7 kb and 2 kb, were characterized, respectively. The restriction maps of the two clones were different but suggested that both contained repeating units. At the 3' terminus, pKTH301 had preserved 106 nucleotides and pKTH309 102 nucleotides from the 3' end of the viral 42S genome. The conserved 3' terminal sequence was joined to a different sequence in the two clones, and these sequences were not derived from the region coding for the viral structural proteins. The DI RNAs represented by the two clones are generated from the viral 42S RNA by several noncontinuous internal deletions, since the largest colinear regions with 42S RNA are 320 nucleotides in pKTH301, and 430 and 340 nucleotides in pKTH309. All these fragments had unique RNase T1 oligonucleotide fingerprints, suggesting that they were derived from different regions of 42S RNA.     

Effects of cDNA hybridization on translation of encephalomyocarditis virus RNA.

Cell-free translation of the RNA of encephalomyocarditis virus was examined after hybridization of chemically synthesized cDNA fragments to different sites of the 5' noncoding region of the viral RNA. The following results were obtained. The binding of cDNA fragments to the first 41 nucleotides, to the poly(C) tract (between nucleotides 149 and 263), and to the sequence between nucleotides 309 and 338 did not affect translation of the viral RNA; the binding of cDNA fragments to the sequence between nucleotides 420 and 449 caused a slight inhibition; and the binding of fragments to eight different sites between nucleotides 450 and the initiator AUG codon (nucleotide 834) caused high degrees of inhibition. The results suggest that the first part of the 5' untranslated region, at least to nucleotide 338, may not be required for encephalomyocarditis viral RNA translation; however, the region near nucleotide 450 is important for translation of the viral RNA. The possibility that initiation occurs at an internal site is discussed.
