Antagonism of the complement component C4 by flavivirus nonstructural protein NS1

The complement system plays an essential protective role in the initial defense against many microorganisms. Flavivirus NS1 is a secreted nonstructural glycoprotein that accumulates in blood, is displayed on the surface of infected cells, and has been hypothesized to have immune evasion functions. Herein, we demonstrate that dengue virus (DENV), West Nile virus (WNV), and yellow fever virus (YF...

West Nile virus nonstructural protein NS1 inhibits complement activation by binding the regulatory protein factor H.

The complement system, by virtue of its dual effector and priming functions, is a major host defense against pathogens. Flavivirus nonstructural protein (NS)-1 has been speculated to have immune evasion activity, because it is a secreted glycoprotein, binds back to cell surfaces, and accumulates to high levels in the serum of infected patients. Herein, we demonstrate an immunomodulatory functio...

Mapping the Interactions of Dengue Virus NS1 Protein with Human Liver Proteins Using a Yeast Two-Hybrid System: Identification of C1q as an Interacting Partner

Dengue constitutes a global health concern. The clinical manifestation of this disease varies from mild febrile illness to severe hemorrhage and/or fatal hypovolemic shock. Flavivirus nonstructural protein 1 (NS1) is a secreted glycoprotein that is displayed on the surface of infected cells but is absent in viral particles. NS1 accumulates at high levels in the plasma of dengue virus (DENV)-inf...

Human C4b-binding protein has overlapping, but not identical, binding sites for C4b and streptococcal M proteins.

Many strains of Streptococcus pyogenes bind C4b-binding protein (C4BP), an inhibitor of complement activation. The binding is mediated by surface M proteins in a fashion that has been suggested to mimic the binding of C4b. We have previously shown that a positively charged cluster at the interface between complement control protein domains 1 and 2 of C4BP alpha-chain is crucial for the C4b-C4BP...

Synergistic inhibition of the intrinsic factor X activation by protein S and C4b-binding protein.

The complement protein C4b-binding protein plays an important role in the regulation of the protein C anticoagulant pathway. C4b-binding protein can bind to protein S, thereby inhibiting the cofactor activity of protein S for activated protein C. In this report, we describe a new role for C4b-binding protein in coagulation. We observed inhibition of the intrinsic factor X activating reaction by...
