英文摘要 | The heptad repeat (hr), a conserved structural motif of class i viral fusion proteins, is responsible for the formation of a six-helix bundle structure during the envelope fusion process. the insect baculovirus f protein is a newly found budded virus envelope fusion protein which possesses common features to class i fusion proteins, such as proteolytic cleavage and the presence of an n-terminal open fusion peptide and multiple hr domains on the transmembrane subunit f-1. similar to many vertebrate viral fusion proteins, a conserved leucine zipper motif is predicted in this hr region proximal to the fusion peptide in baculovirus f proteins. to facilitate our understanding of the functional role of this leucine zipper-like hr1 domain in baculovirus f protein synthesis, processing, and viral infectivity, key leucine residues (leu209, leu216, and leu223) were replaced by alanine (a) or arginine (r), respectively. by using autographa californica multicapsid nucleopolyhedrovirus (acmnpv) as a pseudotype expression system, we demonstrated that all mutant f proteins incorporated into budded virus, indicating that leucine substitutions did not affect intercellular trafficking of f. furin-like protease cleavage was not affected by any of the leucine substitutions; however, the disulfide bridging and n-linked glycosylation patterns were partly altered. single substitutions in hr1 showed that the three leucine residues were critical for f fusogenicity and the rescue of acmnpv infectivity. our results support the view that the leucine zipper-like hr1 domain is important to safeguard the proper folding, glycosylation, and fusogenicity of baculovirus f proteins. |
