ATP binding and ATPase activities associated with recombinant rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus 2C-like polypeptide.

چکیده
The carboxy-terminal region of the rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus p37 polyprotein cleavage product has been expressed in Escherichia coli as a glutathione S-transferase (GST) fusion protein. The recombinant GST-Delta2C protein showed in vitro ATP-binding and ATPase activities. Site-directed mutagenesis studies of the conserved residues G(522) and T(529) in motif A, D(566) and E(567) in motif B, and K(600) in motif C were also performed. These results provide the first experimental characterization of a 2C-like ATPase activity in a member of the Caliciviridae.

Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV), a positive sense, single-stranded RNA virus, causes a highly contagious disease in cloven-hoofed livestock. Like other picornaviruses, FMDV has a conserved 2C protein assigned to the superfamily 3 helicases a group of AAA+ ATPases that has a predicted N-terminal membrane-binding amphipathic helix attached to the main ATPase domain. In infected cells, 2C is i...
متن کاملA single dose immunization with rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus major capsid protein produced in Saccharomyces cerevisiae induces protection.
The gene coding for the major capsid protein (VP60) from rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus was expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae under the phosphoglycerate kinase promoter. The recombinant VP60 produced in yeast was antigenically similar to the viral polypeptide as determined with a polyclonal serum. Electron microscopic observation of the recombinant yeast-derived antigen revealed the pres...

Poliovirus-encoded nonstructural polypeptide 2C is a multifunctional protein that plays an important role in viral RNA replication. 2C interacts with both intracellular membranes and virus-specific RNAs and has ATPase and GTPase activities. Extensive computer analysis of the 2C sequence revealed that in addition to the known ATPase-, GTPase-, membrane-, and RNA-binding domains it also contains ...
متن کاملBinding of rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus to antigens of the ABH histo-blood group family.
The ability of rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus to agglutinate human erythrocytes and to attach to rabbit epithelial cells of the upper respiratory and digestive tracts was shown to depend on the presence of ABH blood group antigens. Indeed, agglutination was inhibited by saliva from secretor individuals but not from nonsecretors, the latter being devoid of H antigen. In addition, erythrocytes ...
متن کاملIdentification of the amino acid residue involved in rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus VPg uridylylation.
The virus genome-linked protein (VPg) coding region from rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) (isolate AST/89) was expressed in Escherichia coli by using a glutathione S-transferase-based vector. The recombinant polypeptide could be purified in good yields and was uridylylated in vitro from [alpha-32P]UTP in a reaction catalyzed by the recombinant RNA-dependent RNA polymerase from RHDV in th...
