Specific incorporation of host cell surface proteins into budding vesicular stomatitis virus particles 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The specific incorporation of cell surface proteins into budding Vesicular Stomatitis Virus (VSV) particles was shown by two approaches. In the first, monolayer cultures of Vero or L cells were labeled by lactoperoxidase-catalyzed iodination and the cells were then infected with VSV. Approximately 2% of the cell surface 1251 radioactivity was incorporated into particles which co-purify with normal, infectious virions by both velocity and equilibrium gradient centrifugation and which are precipitated by antiserum specific for the VSV glycoprotein. Control experiments establish that these 125I-labeled particles are not cell debris or cellular material which aggregate with or adhere to VSV virions. VSV virions contain only a subset of the 10–15 normal 1251-labeled cell surface polypeptides resolved by SDS gel electrophoresis; VSV grown in L cells and Vero cells incorporate different host polypeptides. In a second approach, Vero cells were labeled with 35S-methione, then infected with VSV. Two predominant host polypeptides (molecular weights 110,000 and 20,000) were incorporated into VSV virions. These proteins, like VSV G protein, are exposed to the surface of the virion. They co-migrate with the major incorporated 1251 host polypeptides. These host proteins are present in approximately 10 and 80 copies, respectively, per virion. Specific incorporation of host polypeptides into VSV virions does not require the presence of viral glycoprotein. This was shown by use of a ts VSV mutant defective in maturation of VSV G protein to the cell surface. Budding from infected cells are noninfectious particles which contain all the viral proteins except for G; these particles contain the same proportion and spectrum of 1251-labeled host surface polypeptides as do wild-type virions. These results extend previous conclusions implicating the submembrane viral matrix protein, or the viral nucleocapsid, as being of primary importance in selecting cell surface proteins for incorporation into budding VSV virions. 相似文献

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) was purified from the extracellular fluid of HR-1 and B95-8 cell lines. The preparations of purified virus consisted of enveloped particles and had EBV-specific antigneic reactivity. Comparison of the amount of labeled protein in preparations of virus purified from cultures incubated in [35S]methionine with the amount of labeled protein in preparations obtained following a mixture of unlabeled virus with [35S]methionine-labeled cellular proteins indicated that less than 2% of the labeled protein in the purified virus preparation could be attributed to contamination with labeled cellular proteins. No extraneous membranous material was seen in thin sections of the purified virus preparations. Analysis of the polypeptides of purified enveloped EBV indicated the following. (i) Eighteen polypeptides could be resolved in Coomassie brilliant blue-stained electropherograms of extracellular virus purified from HR-1 and B95-8 cultures. (ii) Thirty-three polypeptides could be resolved in fluorograms of labeled EBV purified from B95-8 cultures and subjected to electrophoresis in acrylamide gels cross-linked with diallyltartardiamide. The molecular weight of the EBV polypeptides was estimated by co-electrophoresis with the polypeptides of purified herpes simplex virus and purified polypeptides of known molecular weight to range from 28 x 10(3) to approximately 290 x 10(3) (iii) The polypeptides of EBV could be grouped by their relative molar abundancy into three classes: VP6, 7, and 27 present in high abundance; VP1, 12, 20, 23, and 29 present in moderate abundance; and a third class of less abundant polypeptides, VP4, 5, 8, 9, 10, 11, 15, 16, 21, and 22. The remainder of the polypeptides could not be precisely quantitated. (iv) The polypeptides of purified EBV, although similar in number and in range of molecular weight to the polypeptides of purified herpes simplex virus, differ sufficiently from those of herpes simplex virus so as to preclude comparison of individual polypeptide components. 相似文献

Phenotypic mixing between Sendai virus and vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) or the mutant VSV ts045 was studied. Conditions were optimized for double infection, as shown by immunofluorescence microscopy. Virions from double-infected cells were separated by sequential velocity and isopycnic gradient centrifugations. Two types of particles with mixed protein compositions were found. One type was VSV particles with Sendai virus spikes, i.e., phenotypically mixed particles. A second type was Sendai virus-VSV associations, which in plaque assays also behaved as phenotypically mixed particles. The ratio of VSV G protein to Sendai virus glycoproteins on the cell surface was varied, using the VSV mutant ts045 in double infections. Thus, different amounts of the VSV G protein were allowed to reach the cell surface at 32, 38, and 39 degrees C in Sendai virus-infected cells. However, a fixed number of Sendai virus spikes was always found in the ts045 virions. This represented 12 to 16% of the number of G proteins present in normal VSV. Furthermore, the yield of ts045 virions was radically reduced during double infection when the temperature was raised to block G-protein transport to the cell surface, suggesting that the Sendai virus glycoproteins were not able to compensate for G protein in budding. These results emphasize the role of the G protein in VSV assembly. 相似文献

Protein kinase activity has been found in hepatitis B virions (Dane particles) purified from the plasma of hepatitis B surface antigen carriers [Albin, C., and Robinson, W.S. (1980) J. Virol. 34, 297-302]. Dane particles were purified from the pooled, HBeAg-positive plasma. When this preparation was incubated with [gamma 32P]ATP in the presence of 10mM MnCl2 and 0.5% NP-40 for 15 seconds at 30 degrees C, several phosphorylated polypeptides of 20,000, 42,000, 48,000, 50,000 and 56,000 daltons were detected in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels. When the Dane particles were incubated with [gamma 32P]ATP, 10 mM MnCl2, and 0.5% NP-40 in the presence of human hepatoma cell (J-5) particulate fraction at 30 degrees C, 15 seconds, the 42,000, 48,000 and 50,000 daltons phosphorylated polypeptides were not found. When human peripheral blood lymphocytes particulate fraction was incubated with Dane particles under the same conditions, no change of Dane particle phosphorylated polypeptides was detected. Previous publications [Albin, C., and Robinson, W.S. (1980) J. Virol. 34, 297-302; Gerlich, W.H. et al. (1982) J. Virol. 42, 761-766] showed that when hepatitis B core particles purified from hepatoma tissues contained protein kinase activity, only phosphorylated polypeptide was 20,000 daltons. Our data suggested that when Dane particles were put in an environment of hepatoma cells (or tissues), the protein kinase could only phosphorylate selected polypeptides in these particles. 相似文献

Using sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide slab gel electrophoresis of [35S]methionine-labeled adenovirus type 2-infected KB cell extracts, a total of 23 virus-induced polypeptides was detected. This technique was applied to the analysis of the temperature-sensitive mutant, ts 1, which has previously been shown to be defective in a late function. By means of pulse-chase experiments, ts 1 was shown to be defective in the processing of the precursor polypeptide (Pre VII) to the major core protein VII. Two other putative precursor polypeptides, Va (27K) and Vb (24K), were also not processed. Thus, the ts 1 mutation blocked the appearance of six post-translational clevage products, i. e., polypeptides VI, VII, VIII, X, XI, and XII. All of these polypeptides are virion components. Processing was temperature sensitive in a shift-up experiment, whereas it was normal in a shift-down experiment. The kinetics of the temperature-shift experiments suggested that infectious virus could be recovered if enough time is provided for processing to take place. Processing was not inhibited by cycloheximide. The analysis of purified virus particles and empty shells (TCs) revealed the presence of the precursor and putative precursor polypeptides Pre-VII, Va and Vb, instead of their cleavage products, in both types of particles. Based on these results we propose that the ts 1 gene codes for or regulates an endoprotease which is responsible for the completion of the last step in virus maturation, that is, the conversion of "young virions" into mature infectious virions by a series of maturation cleavages. 相似文献

The uncoating of adenovirus type 2 and a temperature-sensitive mutant, tsl, was studied. HEp-2 cells were infected with 32P- OR 125I-labeled purified virions for various lengths of time, and the nuclear and cytoplasmic fractions were analyzed by sucrose gradient velocity sedimentation and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacryl-amide gel electrophoresis. Within 1 h of infection, virions were converted into three subviral structures: (1) subviral structures in the cytoplasm with a density greater than virions but which qualitatively still contained all virus polypeptides; (ii) corelike structures associated with both the nuclear and cytoplasmic fractions and composed of viral DNA and polypeptides VIa2, V and PVII; and (iii) putative DNA-terminal protein complexes in the nuclei. The kinetic and compartmentalization studies suggested that the DNA-terminal protein complex is the end product of uncoating. The virions which were synthesized by tsl at the nonpermissive temperature and contained the precursor polypeptides PVI and PVII were found to be blocked in uncoating at the corelike stage. This block in uncoating provides the explanation for the lack of infectivity of these virions. A model for the uncoating of adenovirus is proposed. 相似文献

Morphological and physical properties of a multiploid-forming mutant of Western equine encephalitis virus were studied. Electron micrographs of the infected cells showed that most of mutant virions bud from the plasma or vacuolar membrane as a multiploid particle containing a various number of nucleocapsids enclosed with a defined common envelope. The mutant virions contained three polypeptides which migrated to the position identical with those of wild type on discontinuous acrylamide gels. Cells infected with the mutant virus synthesized the same intracellular viral RNA species as was made after infection of wild type. Cytoplasmic nucleocapsids of the mutant sedimented at 140S and contained 42S virion RNA as those of wild type; they were indistinguishable from those of wild type in an electron microscope examination. On the other hand, mutant nucleocapsids isolated from extracellular virions sedimented as heterogeneous particles larger thant 140S and were shown to be pleomorphic and aggregate in electron micrographs. The budding process of this mutant seemed to be modified, so that it might form the multiploid with the alteration of its nucleocapsids. 相似文献

Replication of milker's node virus (MNV) DNA begins 4 to 8 h postinfection, continues to 30 to 36 h postinfection in the cytoplasm of infected, primary bovine embryonic kidney cells, and is accompanied by an inhibition of host nuclear DNA synthesis. Between 20 and 24 h postinfection, newly replicated genomes are incorporated into particles which cosediment with purified MNV. These biochemical measurements could be correlated with the development of MN virions as revealed by electron microscopic analysis of thin sections prepared from infected cells. Analysis of the DNA in purified MNV showed that the virions contained a double-stranded DNA molecule with a molecular weight of 85 x 10(6) to 87 x 10(6) and a guanine-plus-cytosine content of about 63%. After denaturation and sedimentation analysis of MNV DNA in alkaline sucrose gradients, three major DNA species were resolved. These species appeared to represent intact, terminally cross-linked genomes (approximately 75 to 80S); genomes bearing one nick (or with one cross-link removed) (60 to 65S); and complementary, denatured DNA strands released from cross-linked genomes bearing two nicks (or with both cross-links removed) (52 to 55S). Forty [35S]methionine-labeled polypeptides, ranging from approximately 200,000 daltons to 10,000 to 15,000 daltons, were detected by radioautography after polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the proteins present in detergent-solubilized MNV preparations. Treatment of MN virions with Nonidet P-40, beta-mercaptoethanol, and sonication released 10 polypeptides, which were apparently located on the surface of virions. Further fractionation of these released polypeptides, followed by electron microscopy and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, indicated that a 42,000- to 45,000-dalton polypeptide is a major component of the threadlike tubule structure present on the surface of MN virions. 相似文献

Purified full and empty virions of minute virus of mice were separated on CsCl gradients, and their polypeptides were examined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The empty particle contains two polypeptides, A (83,300 daltons) and B (64,300 daltons), which are 15 to 18% and 82 to 85%, respectively, of the virion mass. The full particle contains the single-stranded DNA genome, proteins A and B, and a third polypeptide, C (61,400 daltons). Again A is 15 to 18% of the protein mass, but the amounts of B and C vary inversely in different preparations of full particles. These polypeptides comprise greater than 99.6% of the protein in either virion, and their molecular weights and molar ratios are independent of the species of host cell on which the virus is propagated, They are not found in uninfected cells, and no protein component of uninfected cells copurifies with either virion under our conditions. Pulse-chase experiments show that the three proteins are synthesized only after virus infection and are therefore probably virus coded. Sequential harvesting from the nuclei of cells infected under one cycle growth conditions shows an increase in the proportion of C in full particles as infection progresses, suggesting that C is derived from B in a late maturation step. 相似文献

The major capsid protein of polyomavirus, VP1, was separated into at least four subspecies by isoelectric focusing. One of these subspecies was selectively extracted from purified virions by mild treatment with sodium dodecyl sulfate, leaving a 140S particle enriched in the other three forms. The two most acidic subspecies were labeled in vivo with [32P]phosphate, and these subspecies are among those identified as being deficient in nontransforming host range (hr-t) mutant virus nonpermissive infection of NIH3T3 cells. Quantitation of VP1 phosphorylation revealed that hr-t mutant virus VP1 is phosphorylated to about 40 to 50% the level of the wild type in NIH3T3 cells, and two-dimensional phosphoamino acid analysis suggested that threonine phosphorylation was affected more than serine phosphorylation. Two results indicate that the VP1 modifications occur before and independent of virus assembly: modified subspecies were detected during wild-type infection within a 2-min pulse-label with [32S]methionine, and VP1 modifications of temperature-sensitive VP1 mutants were the same at both restrictive and permissive temperatures for virus assembly. We conclude that most VP1 modification occurs before viral DNA encapsidation, and that one defect in hr-t mutant virus assembly is in VP1 phosphorylation, primarily affecting threonine. 相似文献

The properties of a naturally occurring temperature-sensitive (ts) mutant of human adenovirus type 7 (Ad7) were studied. Mutant Ad7 (19), or E46-, was the nonhybrid adenovirus component derived from the defective simian virus 40 (SV40)-Ad7 hybrid (PARA). Growth of the mutant was restricted at 40.5 degrees C, and the ratios of virus yields in KB cells at 40.5 and 33 degrees C were 10(-2) to 10(-3). Viral DNA synthesis and the synthesis of adenovirus-specific antigens (tumor, capsid, hexon, and penton antigens) appeared normal at the restrictive temperature. The assembly of virus particles was aberrant, as determined by thin-section of infected cells. The infectivity of mutant virions was heat labile at 50 degrees C, suggesting a ts defect in a structural component of the viron. Analysis by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of [35S]methionine-labeled polypeptides synthesized in mutant-infected cells suggested that at least the major virion polypeptides were synthesized at the restrictive temperature. A lack of inhibition of host protein synthesis late in mutant infections, as compared with wild-type (WT) infections at both the permissive and nonpermissive temperatures, made quantitation of infected-cell polypeptides difficult. Analysis of the assembly of capsomeres from cytoplasmic extracts of infected cells on sucrose gradients and by non-dissociating polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis suggested that hexon capsomeres were made at 40.5 degrees C. The hexon capsomeres made by the mutant at either 33 or 40.5 degrees C displayed a decreased migration in the non-dissociating gels compared with the WT hexon capsomeres. The molecular weights of the mutant and WT hexon polypeptides were identical. These results suggest that the ts lesion of this group B human Ad7 mutant may be reflected in altered hexons. The mutant Ad7 interfered with the replication of adenovirus types 2 and 21 at the elevated temperature. 相似文献

Cytomegalovirus virions and dense bodies were purified by sucrose velocity and equilibrium centrifugation from the medium of fibroblasts infected with the strain AD169. The final virus preparations were purified more than 228-fold with respect to cellular proteins as determined by double-isotopic labeling and at least 1,600-fold on the basis of changes in the ratio of total protein to virus particles. The protein content of purified particles approximated that found for purified preparations of other herpesviruses. Twenty polypeptides ranging from 22,000 to greater than 230,000 molecular weight were detected in purified virus preparations by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Polypeptides of virions and dense bodies were allocated on the basis of analyses of preparations containing differing percentages of virions and dense bodies. Six polypeptides were represented predominantly or exclusively in virions, and four polypeptides were represented predominantly or exclusively in dense bodies, whereas the remainder appeared to be shared by both types of particles. Four polypeptides were glycosylated, and at least three of these appeared to be shared by both particles. Four polypeptides were glycosylated, and at least three of these appeared to be shared by both particle types. The protein composition of cytomegalovirus differs profoundly from that of herpes simplex virus. 相似文献

Synthesis of cytoplasmic DNA-binding proteins was investigated after a shift from the nonpermissive to the permissive temperature in NRK cells transformed by a temperature-sensitive mutant of Rous sarcoma virus [ts339(RSV)]. Cells were labeled for several generations in [3H]leucine and were pulse-labeled with [35S]methionine for 1 h at the nonpermissive temperature (39 degrees C) and at the permissive temperature (33 degrees C, 5 h after shift from 39 degrees C). Proteins binding to sequential columns of double-stranded and single-stranded DNA-cellulose were examined by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate, and the 35S/3H ratios were obtained for each column fraction and for individual polypeptides. The protein fractions binding to single-stranded, but not double-stranded, DNA and eluting at high salt concentrations (greater than 0.60 M NaCl) showed elevated 35S/3H ratios. This indicated increased synthesis of these proteins within 5 h after the onset of transformation. The majority of the polypeptides in these fractions showed increased synthesis as a consequence of transformation. One prominent polypeptide among them constituted 0.1% of the cytosol protein and had a molecular weight of 93,000. We conclude that the synthesis of proteins binding tightly to single-stranded DNA is increased early after the onset of transformation. 相似文献

We characterized a strain of Aleutian disease virus adapted to growth in Crandall feline kidney cells at 31.8 degrees C. When purified from infected cells, Aleutian disease virus had a density in CsCl of 1.42 to 1.44 g/ml and was 24 to 26 nm in diameter. [3H]thymidine could be incorporated into the viral genome, and the viral DNA was then studied. In alkaline sucrose gradients, Aleutian disease virus DNA was a single species that cosedimented at 15.5S with single-stranded DNA from adeno-associated virus. When the DNA was analyzed on neutral sucrose gradients, a single species was again observed, which sedimented at 21S and was clearly distinct from 16S duplex adeno-associated virus DNA. A similar result was obtained even after incubation under annealing conditions, implying that the bulk of Aleutian disease virus virions contained a single non-complementary strand with a molecular weight of about 1.4 X 10(6). In addition, two major virus-associated polypeptides with molecular weights of 89,100 and 77,600 were demonstrated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of virus purified from infected cultures labeled with [35S]methionine. These data suggest that Aleutian disease virus is a nondefective parvovirus. 相似文献

Sera from porcine parvovirus (PPV)-infected swine fetuses immunoprecipitated and 84- to 86-kilodalton polypeptide in addition to the A and B virion structural proteins. This polypeptide, designated NS-1, was present in PPV-infected cell lysates but not in purified virions. Partial proteolysis mapping revealed that NS-1 was not related to the A and B viral structural proteins. All three proteins in infected cells were phosphorylated at serine residues, and NS-1 also contained phosphothreonine. From pulse-labeling experiments with either 32Pi or [35S]methionine, NS-1 was found to first appear 5 to 7 h postinfection, whereas the viral structural polypeptides were first synthesized 9 to 11 h postinfection. Pulse-chase experiments revealed that NS-1 initially appeared as an 84-kilodalton protein and was subsequently structurally modified to forms of slower electrophoretic mobilities. The time of appearance of NS-1 after virus infection coincided with the initiation of viral DNA synthesis, suggesting that this polypeptide (and the modified forms thereof) may be involved in PPV replication. 相似文献

Feline rhinotracheitis virus is an upper-respiratory-tract pathogen of cats. It may also cause generalized infections or abortions. Antigens present in [35S]methionine- or [14C]glucosamine-labeled purified virions, in Nonident P-40 (NP-40) extracts of a mixture of virions and infected cells, and in virion-free cell culture medium, along with mock-infected Crandell -Rees feline kidney cell controls, were analyzed by direct sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) or by SDS-PAGE preceded by Staphylococcus aureus protein A immunoprecipitation. The direct SDS-PAGE analysis revealed at least 17 virus-specific peptides with molecular weights ranging from less than 200,000 ( 200K ) to more than 30K . Three of these peptides were glycosylated and had molecular weights of 105K , 68K , and 60K. Immunoprecipitates of purified virions and NP-40 extracts contained three major glycoproteins with the same estimated molecular weights as those found by the direct analysis. A prominent 105K glycoprotein was present in virion-free cell culture medium immunoprecipitates. In addition, a number of nonglycosylated feline rhinotracheitis virus-specific polypeptides (eight in virions, three in NP-40 extracts, and nine in virion-free cell culture medium), ranging in molecular weight from 145K to 32K, were present in the various immunoprecipitates. 相似文献

Prototype temperature-sensitive (ts) mutants of a coxsackievirus B3 parent virus capable of replication to similar levels at 34 or 39.5 degrees C were examined for the nature of the temperature-sensitive event restricting replication in HeLa cells at 39.5 degrees C. The ts mutant prototypes represented three different non-overlapping complementation groups. The ts1 mutant (complementation group III) synthesized less than 1% of the infectious genomic RNA synthesized by the coxsackievirus B3 parent virus at 39.5 degrees C and was designated an RNA- mutant. Agarose gel analysis of glyoxal-treated RNA from cells inoculated with ts1 virus revealed that cell RNA synthesis continued in the presence of synthesis of the small amount of viral RNA. This mutant was comparatively ineffective in inducing cell cytopathology and in directing synthesis of viral polypeptides, likely due to the paucity of nascent genomes for translation. The ts5 mutant (complementation group II) directed synthesis of appreciable quantities of both viral genomes (RNA+) and capsid polypeptides; however, assembly of these products into virions occurred at a low frequency, and virions assembled at 39.5 degrees C were highly unstable at that temperature. Shift-down experiments with ts5-inoculated cells showed that capsid precursor materials synthesized at 39.5 degrees C can, after shift to 34 degrees C, be incorporated into ts5 virions. We suggest that the temperature-sensitive defect in this prototype is in the synthesis of one of the capsid polypeptides that cannot renature into the correct configuration required for stability in the capsid at 39.5 degrees C. The ts11 mutant (complementation group I) also synthesized appreciable amounts of viral genomes (RNA+) and viral polypeptides at 39.5 degrees C. Assembly of ts11 virions at 39.5 degrees C occurred at a low frequency, and the stability of these virions at 39.5 degrees C was similar to that of the parent coxsackievirus B3 virions. The temperature-sensitive defect in the ts11 prototype is apparently in assembly. The differences in biochemical properties of the three prototype ts mutants at temperatures above 34 degrees C may ultimately offer insight into the differences in pathogenicity observed in neonatal mice for the three prototype ts mutants. 相似文献

An electrophoretic analysis of radioactively labeled, purified, "empty" and DNA-containing infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virions revealed the presence of 25 to 33 structural (virion) polypeptides. A total of 11 of these polypeptides could be labeled with [3H]glucosamine and were identified as glycoproteins. In addition to the 25 structural polypeptides, infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus infected cells also contained at least 15 nonstructural (nonvirion) polypeptides that were not present in purified virions. Expression of the viral polypeptides in infected cells was controlled temporally. Thus, most viral polypeptides could be categorized as "alpha" (immediate early), "beta" (early), or "gamma" (late) on the basis of their order of appearance in infected cells and whether their syntheses were dependent upon prior viral protein or DNA synthesis. None of the glycoproteins belongs to the alpha class, although at least one (GVP11) was synthesized in the absence of viral DNA synthesis. Serum from a cow in which infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus lesions were reactivated by dexamethasone precipitated both structural and nonstructural polypeptides. 相似文献

The intracellular synthesis of measles-specified polypeptides was examined by means of polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of cell extracts. Since measles virus does not efficiently shut off host-cell protein synthesis, high multiplicities of infection were used to enable viral polypeptides to be detected against the high background of cellular protein synthesis. The cytoplasm of infected cells contained viral structural polypeptides with estimated molecular weights of 200,000, 80,000, 70,000, 60,000, 41,000, and 37,000. All of these structural polypeptides, with the exception of P1, the only virion glycoprotein (molecular weight congruent to 80,000), were also found in the nuclei. In addition, two nonstructural polypeptides with estimated molecular weights of 74,000 and 72,000 were also present in the cytoplasm of infected cells. The initial synthesis of the smaller, nonstructural polypeptide began later in infection than the structural polypeptides. Pulse-chase experiments failed to detect any precursor-product relationships. The intracellular glycosylation and phosphorylation of the viral polypeptides were found to be similar to those found in purified virions. 相似文献

Spatial organization of wild-type (strain U1) tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) and of the temperature-sensitive TMV ts21-66 mutant was compared by tritium planigraphy. The ts21-66 mutant contains two substitutions in the coat protein (Ile21-->Thr and Asp66-->Gly) and, in contrast with U1, induces a hypersensitive response (formation of necroses) on the leaves of plants bearing a host resistance gene N' (for example Nicotiana sylvestris); TMV U1 induces systemic infection (mosaic) on the leaves of such plants. Tritium distribution along the coat protein (CP) polypeptide chain was determined after labelling of both isolated CP preparations and intact virions. In the case of the isolated low-order (3-4S) CP aggregates no reliable differences in tritium distribution between U1 and ts21-66 were found. But in labelling of the intact virions a significant difference between the wild-type and mutant CPs was observed: the N-terminal region of ts21-66 CP incorporated half the amount of tritium than the corresponding region of U1 CP. This means that in U1 virions the CP N-terminal segment is more exposed on the virion surface than in ts21-66 virions. The possibility of direct participation of the N-terminal tail of U1 CP subunits in the process of the N' hypersensitive response suppression is discussed. 相似文献
