Influenza virus M2 protein ion channel activity stabilizes the native form of fowl plague virus hemagglutinin during intracellular transport.
The influenza A/fowl plague virus/Rostock/34 hemagglutinin (HA), which is cleaved intracellularly and has a high pH threshold (pH 5.9) for undergoing its conformational change to the low-pH form, was expressed from cDNA in CV-1 and HeLa T4 cells in the absence of other influenza virus proteins. It was found, by biochemical assays, that the majority of the HA molecules were in a form indistingui...
متن کاملInfluenza A Virus M2 Ion Channel Protein:
A structure-function analysis of the influenza A virus M2 ion channel protein was performed. The M2 protein of human influenza virus A/Udorn/72 and mutants containing changes on one face of the putative a helix of the M2 transmembrane (TM) domain, several of which lead to amantadine resistance when found in virus, were expressed in oocytes of Xenopus laevis. The membrane currents of oocytes exp...
متن کاملThe ion channel activity of the influenza virus M2 protein affects transport through the Golgi apparatus
High level expression of the M2 ion channel protein of influenza virus inhibits the rate of intracellular transport of the influenza virus hemagglutinin (HA) and that of other integral membrane glycoproteins. HA coexpressed with M2 is properly folded, is not associated with GRP78-BiP, and trimerizes with the same kinetics as when HA is expressed alone. Analysis of the rate of transport of HA fr...
متن کاملInfluenza virus activates inflammasomes via its intracellular M2 ion channel
Influenza virus is responsible for annual epidemics that cause severe illness in ~5 million people worldwide. Evidence has shown that influenza infection engages the NLRP3 inflammasome complex in dendritic cells and macrophages1–4. NLRP3 forms a multiprotein complex with the adaptor protein ASC (pycard) and caspase-1, which leads to the catalytic cleavage of the immature (‘pro’) forms of interl...
متن کاملOver Expression of Influenza Virus M2 Protein in Prokaryotic System
Background and Aims: Influenza A virus of Orthomyxoviridae family is able to create pandemic influenza. Vaccination is the most effective way to prevent influenza virus infection. Matrix protein 2 (M2) is a homotetramer ion channel with 97 amino acids length and highly conserved among influenza viruses and is considered for development of a universal influenza vaccine. Materials and Methods: We...
