Relationship between adenovirus DNA replication proteins and nucleolar proteins B23.1 and B23.2
نویسندگان
چکیده
Adenovirus infection subverts nucleolar structure and function. B23 is a nucleolar protein present in two isoforms (B23.1 and B23.2) and both isoforms have been identified as stimulatory factors for adenovirus DNA replication. Here, it is demonstrated that the two isoforms of B23, B23.1 and B23.2, interact and co-localize differently with viral DNA replication proteins pTP and DBP in adenovirus-infected cells. Thus, the mechanism by which the two proteins stimulate viral DNA replication is likely to differ. These data also demonstrate the importance of testing both isoforms of B23 for interactions with viral proteins and nucleic acids.

Intrinsically disordered regions of nucleophosmin/B23 regulate its RNA binding activity through their inter- and intra-molecular association
Nucleophosmin (NPM1/B23) is a nucleolar protein implicated in growth-associated functions, in which the RNA binding activity of B23 plays essential roles in ribosome biogenesis. The C-terminal globular domain (CTD) of B23 has been believed to be the RNA binding domain because the splicing variant B23.2 lacking the CTD binds considerably less efficiently to RNA. However, the recognition of targe...
متن کاملUpstream-binding factor is sequestered into herpes simplex virus type 1 replication compartments
Previous reports have shown that adenovirus recruits nucleolar protein upstream-binding factor (UBF) into adenovirus DNA replication centres. Here, we report that despite having a different mode of viral DNA replication, herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) also recruits UBF into viral DNA replication centres. Moreover, as with adenovirus, enhanced green fluorescent protein-tagged fusion protein...

Continuous labelling of callus with H-thymidine results in intermittent peaks of H-DNA per chloroplast, showing synchrony of division. The increase in H-DNA could be due to several replication rounds, and the drop to successive plastid divisions without intervening DNA synthesis. The level of DNA-binding proteins in the chloroplast parallels the peaks of plastidal DNA synthesis; such pro...
متن کاملPhysical and functional interaction between a nucleolar protein nucleophosmin/B23 and adenovirus basic core proteins.
We identified nucleophosmin/B23 as a component of template-activating factor-III that stimulates the DNA replication from the adenovirus DNA complexed with viral basic core proteins. Here, we have studied the functional interaction of B23 with viral core proteins. We found that B23 interacts with viral basic core proteins, core protein V and precursor of core protein VII (pre-VII), in infected ...
