Substrate Specificity of Neurotropic Influenza Virus Neuraminidases.
FIG. 1. Effect of incr-easing substrate concentrations upon the magnitude of reaction with three influenza virus enzymes. Substrate in 0.5 si phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), pH 6 as indicated, and PBS to a total of 0.25 ml (human ac-GP, 4 mg/ ml; ovo, 40 mg/nil; PSM, 30 mg/ml), 0.05 ml of enzyme. Enzymes for these studies were virus concentrates prepared from infected chorioallantoic fluid by ...
متن کاملStructural Basis for Substrate Specificity of Mammalian Neuraminidases
The removal of sialic acid (Sia) residues from glycoconjugates in vertebrates is mediated by a family of neuraminidases (sialidases) consisting of Neu1, Neu2, Neu3 and Neu4 enzymes. The enzymes play distinct physiological roles, but their ability to discriminate between the types of linkages connecting Sia and adjacent residues and between the identity and arrangement of the underlying sugars h...
متن کاملCharacterization of influenza virus neuraminidases: peptide changes associated with antigenic divergence between early and late N2 neuraminidases.
Neuraminidases (EC 3.2.1.18) of 1957, 1960, and 1969 influenza virus strains were isolated after proteolytic digestion of viral hemagglutinin. Each neuraminidase was recovered with a final yield of about 15% and had similar specific activities. Immunization of rabbits with the neuraminidases elicited monospecific neuraminidase antibodies, with no antibodies to viral hemagglutinin. Further evide...
متن کاملSubstrate specificity of Tulane virus protease.
Tulane virus (TV) is a cultivable calicivirus isolated from rhesus monkeys. In this study, we characterized the substrate specificity of TV protease in trans using recombinant proteases and TV polyprotein fragments containing the predicted proteolytic cleavage sites. Cleavage products have been obtained from 4 of the 5 fragments containing (573)Q-S(574) between the helicase and 3A-like protein,...
متن کاملIs dengue virus neurotropic?
Dengue viral infection is on the rise in tropical urban and semi-urban parts of the world. WHO fact sheetN°117 updated in May 2015 estimates 390 million dengue infections per year and that 3900 million people, in 128 countries, are at risk. The WHO case definition of severe dengue includes organ impairment, but does not describe neurological manifestations as a separate entity. Earliest reports...
