Interaction of V 3 and V 6 Integrins with Human Parechovirus 1
نویسندگان
چکیده
Human parechovirus (HPEV) infections are very common in early childhood and can be severe in neonates. It has been shown that integrins are important for cellular infectivity of HPEV1 through experiments using peptide blocking assays and function-blocking antibodies to V integrins. The interaction of HPEV1 with V integrins is presumably mediated by a C-terminal RGD motif in the capsid protein VP1. We characterized the binding of integrins V 3 and V 6 to HPEV1 by biochemical and structural studies. We showed that although HPEV1 bound efficiently to immobilized integrins, V 6 bound more efficiently than V 3 to immobilized HPEV1. Moreover, soluble V 6, but not V 3, blocked HPEV1 cellular infectivity, indicating that it is a high-affinity receptor for HPEV1. We also showed that HPEV1 binding to integrins in vitro could be partially blocked by RGD peptides. Using electron cryo-microscopy and image reconstruction, we showed that HPEV1 has the typical T 1 (pseudo T 3) organization of a picornavirus. Complexes of HPEV1 and integrins indicated that both integrin footprints reside between the 5-fold and 3-fold symmetry axes. This result does not match the RGD position predicted from the coxsackievirus A9 X-ray structure but is consistent with the predicted location of this motif in the shorter C terminus found in HPEV1. This first structural characterization of a parechovirus indicates that the differences in receptor binding are due to the amino acid differences in the integrins rather than to significantly different viral footprints.

velope-associated HHV-8 glycoprotein gB(ORF8) and gpK8. date, only HHV-8 gB possesses the RGD (Arg-Gly-Asp) amino acids (aa 27–29) at the extracellular amino terminus coil region after the putative signal sequence (Russo et al., 1996). Sequence analyses of 63 HHV-8 strains Summary from different geographical locations show that the gB-RGD sequence is highly conserved (Meng et al., 1999). Human ...

The human parechovirus 1 RGD motif in VP1 was studied by mutagenesis. An RGD-to-RGE change gave only revertant viruses with a restored RGD, while deletion of GD was lethal and nonrevertable. Mutations at the +1 and +2 positions had some effect on growth properties and a +1 M-to-P change was lethal. These studies indicate that the RGD motif plays a critical role in infectivity, presumably by int...
متن کاملPathogenic hantaviruses bind plexin–semaphorin– integrin domains present at the apex of inactive, bent v 3 integrin conformers
The v 3 integrins are linked to human bleeding disorders, and pathogenic hantaviruses regulate the function of v 3 integrins and cause acute vascular diseases. v 3 integrins are present in either extended (active) or dramatically bent (inactive) structures, and interconversion of v 3 conformers dynamically regulates integrin functions. Here, we show that hantaviruses bind human v 3 integrins an...
متن کاملMolecular detection of proteolytic activity of human parechovirus 2A protein by gene expression
Parechoviruses form one of the nine genera in the picornaviridae family, and include two human pathogens: Human parechovirus type1 and 2 (Hpev1 and Hpev2). The genome of picornaviruses encodes a single polyprotein, which undergoes a cleavage cascade performed by virus encoded proteases to give the final virus proteins. The primary cleavage occurs by 2A protein and this step is critical for vi...
