چکیده

Vaccinia virus (VACV) has two infectious forms called intracellular mature virus and extracellular enveloped virus (EEV). Two of the seven viral proteins in the EEV outer envelope, A33 and A34, are type II membrane glycoproteins that each interact with another EEV protein called B5; however, evidence for direct A33-A34 interaction is lacking. The localization and stability of A34 is affected by B5 and here data are presented showing that A34 is also affected by A33. In the absence of A33, just as without B5, the level, localization and glycosylation profile of A34 was altered. However, the glycosylation profile of A34 without A33 is different to that observed in the absence of B5, and A34 accumulates in the Golgi apparatus rather than in the endoplasmic reticulum. Thus, A34 requires more than one other EEV protein for its processing and cellular transport.

Vaccinia virus A34 glycoprotein determines the protein composition of the extracellular virus envelope.

The outer envelope of the extracellular form of vaccinia virus contains five virus-encoded proteins, F13, A33, A34, A56, and B5, that, with the exception of A56, are implicated in virus egress or infectivity. A34, a type II transmembrane glycoprotein, is involved in the induction of actin tails, the release of enveloped virus from the surfaces of infected cells, and the disruption of the virus ...

Interaction between vaccinia virus extracellular virus envelope A33 and B5 glycoproteins.

The extracellular form of vaccinia virus acquires its outer envelope by wrapping with cytoplasmic membranes that contain at least seven virus-encoded proteins, of which four are glycoproteins. We searched for interactions between the vaccinia virus A33 glycoprotein and proteins A34, A36, B5, F12, and F13. First, when myc epitope-tagged A33 was expressed in combination with other envelope protei...

Vaccinia virus B5 protein affects the glycosylation, localization and stability of the A34 protein

Vaccinia virus has two infectious forms, the intracellular mature virus, which has a single envelope, and the extracellular enveloped virus (EEV), which is surrounded by two lipid bilayers. The outer membrane of the EEV contains at least six viral proteins. Among them A34, a type II membrane glycoprotein, and B5, a type I membrane glycoprotein, form a complex and are involved in processes such ...

Mutagenesis of the palmitoylation site in vaccinia virus envelope glycoprotein B5.

The outer envelope of vaccinia virus extracellular virions is derived from intracellular membranes that, at late times in infection, are enriched in several virus-encoded proteins. Although palmitoylation is common in vaccinia virus envelope proteins, little is known about the role of palmitoylation in the biogenesis of the enveloped virus. We have studied the palmitoylation of B5, a 42 kDa typ...

The structure of the poxvirus A33 protein reveals a dimer of unique C-type lectin-like domains.

The current vaccine against smallpox is an infectious form of vaccinia virus that has significant side effects. Alternative vaccine approaches using recombinant viral proteins are being developed. A target of subunit vaccine strategies is the poxvirus protein A33, a conserved protein in the Chordopoxvirinae subfamily of Poxviridae that is expressed on the outer viral envelope. Here we have dete...
