A genetic interaction between hepatitis C virus NS4B and NS3 is important for RNA replication.
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) nonstructural protein 4B (NS4B), a poorly characterized integral membrane protein, is thought to function as a scaffold for replication complex assembly; however, functional interactions with the other HCV nonstructural proteins within this complex have not been defined. We report that a Con1 chimeric subgenomic replicon containing the NS4B gene from the closely related ...
متن کاملThe hepatitis C virus NS4A protein: interactions with the NS4B and NS5A proteins.
Hepatitis C virus encodes a large polyprotein precursor that is proteolytically processed into at least 10 distinct products, in the order NH2-C-E1-E2-p7-NS2-NS3-NS4A-NS4B-NS5A-NS5B -COOH. A serine proteinase encoded in the N-terminal 181 residues of the NS3 nonstructural protein is responsible for cleavage at four sites (3/4A, 4A/4B, 4B/5A, and 5A/5B) in the nonstructural region. NS4A, a 54-re...
متن کاملDual topology of the processed hepatitis C virus protein NS4B is influenced by the NS5A protein.
Among the least-known hepatitis C virus proteins is the non-structural protein 4B (NS4B). It localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane and induces membrane changes, resulting in a membranous web that is reported to be the locale for virus replication. A model was presented previously for the topology of recombinant HCV NS4B of the 1a genotype based on in vitro data. In this model, th...
متن کاملA single-amino-acid mutation in hepatitis C virus NS5A disrupting FKBP8 interaction impairs viral replication.
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) nonstructural protein 5A (NS5A) regulates viral replication through its interaction with host and other viral proteins. We have previously shown that FK506-binding protein 8 (FKBP8) binds to NS5A and recruits Hsp90 to form a complex that participates in the replication of HCV. In this study, we examined the biochemical characteristics of the interaction and the intracell...
متن کاملModulation of hepatitis C virus NS5A hyperphosphorylation by nonstructural proteins NS3, NS4A, and NS4B.
NS5A of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a highly phosphorylated protein involved in resistance against interferon and required most likely for replication of the viral genome. Phosphorylation of this protein is mediated by a cellular kinase(s) generating multiple proteins with different electrophoretic mobilities. In the case of the genotype 1b isolate HCV-J, in addition to the basal phosphoryla...
