Abstract
Fowl adenovirus 4 (FAdV-4) is a major avian virus that induces fatal diseases in chicken such as, hydropericardium and hepatitis. The viral structure consists of hexon, penton, fiber-1, and fiber-2 which are associated with immunopathogenesis. In this study, we investigated the genetic modification of a FAdV-4 strain after continuous passages in a cell line and evaluated the pathogenicity associated with mutations. We used the FadV-4 KNU14061 strain, which was isolated from layers in 2014. The virus went through 80 passages in the Leghorn male hepatoma (LMH) cell line. The full genetic sequence was identified, and we found a frameshift in the fiber-2 amino acid sequence after the initial thirty passages. To examine whether the frameshift in the fiber-2 gene affects the pathogenicity in chicken, we inoculated LMH80 (80 times passaged) and LMH10 (10 times passaged) into 3-day-old chickens and examined the pathogenesis. LMH10 infection via intramuscular route induced fatal pathology, but LMH80 did not. Furthermore, LHM80 pre-treatment protected hosts from the LMH10 challenge. Thus, the genetic modification isolated by serial passage lowered pathogenicity and the resulting virus acted as an attenuated vaccine that can be a FAdV-4 vaccine strain candidate.

Molecular characterization and pathogenicity of a fowl adenovirus serotype 4 isolated from peacocks associated with hydropericardium hepatitis syndrome. INFECTION GENETICS AND EVOLUTION 2021; 90:104766. [PMID: 33581328 DOI: 10.1016/j.meegid.2021.104766] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2021] [Revised: 02/04/2021] [Accepted: 02/08/2021] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
In September 2019, a highly prevalent infectious disease caused severe hydropericardium hepatitis syndrome (HHS) in a peacock farm in Central China. The disease showed high mortality of 78.6% in 28-42 day-old peacocks. In this study, one strain of highly pathogenic fowl adenovirus serotype 4 (FAdV-4) was isolated from peacocks and designated as HN19. Molecular characterization of amino acid revealed that HN19 contains the same deletions as the dominate strains in chickens in China recently. Phylogenetic analyses revealed that HN19 showed higher homology with other FAdV-4 strains isolated from China, indicating that HN19 might originate from previously FAdV-4 predecessor in China. Experimental infection of the HN19 strain via intramuscular injection led to 100% mortality rate in 21-day-old specific pathogenic-free (SPF) chickens. To our knowledge, this represents the first report on the prevalence of FAdV-4 in peacocks. These results suggested that the potential risk of cross-species transmission of FAdV-4 from chickens to peacocks, highlighting the need for implementing strict biosecurity measures to avoid the mixing of different bird species.

Molecular characterization and pathogenicity of highly pathogenic fowl adenovirus serotype 4 isolated from laying flock with hydropericardium-hepatitis syndrome. Microb Pathog 2020; 147:104381.

Abstract
Hydropericardium-hepatitis syndrome (HHS) is an important emerging disease responsible for huge economic losses to the poultry industry in China. HHS primarily affects 20 to 60-day-old broilers and rarely occurs in laying flock. In this study, the highly pathogenic fowl adenovirus (FAdV) strain, AH-F19, was isolated from the liver samples of 120-day-old laying flock with HHS and its phylogenetic information, genetic mutations, and pathogenicity was evaluated. The phylogenetic analysis revealed that AH-F19 belonged to the FAdV serotype 4 (FAdV-4) cluster, however, 100K differs from the other FAdV-4 strains and is divided into different branches. Amino acid variations in fiber-2 for pathogenic isolates and non-pathogenic isolates indicated that D219, T300, and T380 may not be responsible for virulence. Animal experiments revealed AH-F19 to be a highly pathogenic isolate that can cause 100% mortality in three-week-old specific pathogen-free (SPF) chickens, which exhibited typical hydropericardium and hepatitis. Microscopically, the presence of basophilic intranuclear inclusion bodies in hepatocytes, fractured heart muscle fibers, as well as kidney degeneration and necrosis was observed. Collectively, these findings enriched our understanding of FAdV-4 pathogenicity and provided a reference for further exploration into its pathogenicity.

Abstract
The immunogenicity of recombinant adenovirus serotype 5 (rAd5) vectors has been shown to be suppressed by neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) directed primarily against hexon hypervariable regions (HVRs). Preexisting immunity can be circumvented by replacing HVRs of rAd5 hexon with those derived from alternate adenovirus serotypes. However, chimeric modification of rAd5 hexon HVRs tends to cause low packaging efficiency or low proliferation of rAd5 vectors, but the related mechanism remains unclear. In this study, several Ad5-based vectors with precise replacement of HVRs with those derived from Ad37 and Ad43 were generated. We first observed that a HVR-exchanged rAd5 vector displayed a higher efficacy of the recombinant virus rescue and growth improvement compared with the rAd5 vector, although most hexon-chimeric rAd5 vectors constructed by us and other groups have proven to be nonviable or growth defective. We therefore evaluated the structural stability of the chimeric hexons and their interactions with the L4-100K chaperone. We showed that the viability of hexon-chimeric Ad5 vectors was not attributed to the structural stability of the chimeric hexon, but rather to the hexon maturation which was assisted by L4-100K. Our results suggested that the intricate interaction between hexon and L4-100K would determine the virus rescue and proliferation efficiency of hexon-chimeric rAd5 vectors.

Abstract
This review describes the properties of some rare eukaryotic chaperones that each assist in the folding of only one target protein. In particular, we describe (1) the tubulin cofactors, (2) p47, which assists in the folding of collagen, (3) α-hemoglobin stabilizing protein (AHSP), (4) the adenovirus L4-100 K protein, which is a chaperone of the major structural viral protein, hexon, and (5) HYPK, the huntingtin-interacting protein. These various-sized proteins (102–1,190 amino acids long) are all involved in the folding of oligomeric polypeptides but are otherwise functionally unique, as they each assist only one particular client. This raises a question regarding the biosynthetic cost of the high-level production of such chaperones. As the clients of faithful chaperones are all abundant proteins that are essential cellular or viral components, it is conceivable that this necessary metabolic expenditure withstood evolutionary pressure to minimize biosynthetic costs. Nevertheless, the complexity of the folding pathways in which these chaperones are involved results in error-prone processes. Several human disorders associated with these chaperones are discussed.

Abstract
The results of studies of Adenovirus have contributed to our basic understanding of the molecular biology of the cell. While a great body of knowledge has been developed concerning Ad gene expression, viral replication, and effects on the infected host, the molecular details of the assembly process of Adenovirus particles are largely unknown. In this article, we would like to propose a theoretical model for the packaging and assembly of Adenovirus and present an overview of the studies that have contributed to our present understanding. In particular, we will summarize the molecular details of the process for packaging of viral DNA into virus particles and highlight the events in packaging and assembly that require further study.

Abstract
Recombinant hexons from subgroup C adenoviruses (Ad2 and Ad5) and from a member of subgroup B (Ad3) adenoviruses have been expressed in insect cells. When expressed alone, all three hexons were found to be insoluble and accumulated as inclusion bodies in the cytoplasm. However, co-expression of recombinant Ad2, Ad5 or Ad3 hexon with Ad2 L4-100K protein resulted in the formation of soluble trimeric hexons. EM analysis of hexons revealed that they were indistinguishable from native hexon capsomers isolated from Ad2-infected human cells, or released from partially disrupted adenovirions. This suggests that 100K acts as a chaperone for hexon folding and self-assembly into capsomer in insect cells. Since 100K protein assists in the trimerization of subgroup C hexon, and of subgroup B hexon protein, it implies that it functions in a manner that is both homo- and heterotypic. During the course of recombinant protein expression, the 100K protein was found in association with hexon monomers and trimers within the cytoplasm. In the nucleus, however, 100K was found in complexes with hexon trimers exclusively. EM observation of purified 100K protein samples showed a dumb-bell-shaped molecule compatible with a monomeric protein. EM analysis of hexon-100K protein complexes showed that interaction of hexon with the 100K protein occurred via one of the globular domains of the 100K protein molecule. Our data confirm the role of the 100K protein as a scaffold protein for hexon, and provide evidence suggesting its function in hexon nuclear import in insect cells.

Abstract
The adenovirus major late transcription unit (MLTU) encodes multiple proteins from five regions, L1 to L5, through differential splicing and polyadenylation. MLTU expression is temporally regulated; only a single product from L1 (52/55K) is expressed prior to replication, but a subsequent switch, the mechanism of which has not been defined, leads to full expression that encompasses L1 IIIa and all L2 to L5 products. Transfection of a plasmid containing the complete MLTU gave a full array of proteins in proportions similar to those in a late infection, and in a time course, the temporal pattern of expression in a natural infection was reproduced. However, a plasmid truncated after the L3 poly(A) site exclusively expressed the L1 52/55K protein and was defective in the switch to full gene expression from L1 to L3. The L4 33K protein, supplied in trans, was sufficient to upregulate cytoplasmic mRNA for MLTU products characteristic of the late pattern of expression to levels comparable to those produced by the full-length MLTU. There was a corresponding increase in expression of the L1 IIIa, L2, and L3 proteins, except hexon. Hexon protein expression additionally required both the L4 100K protein in trans and sequences downstream of the L3 poly(A) site in cis. These results indicate that induction of L4 protein expression is a key event in the early-late switch in MLTU expression, which we propose is precipitated by small amounts of L4 expression in a feed-forward activation mechanism.

Abstract
The structure of the icosahedral adenovirus capsid is highly conserved among Adenoviridae. In its native form, the hexon is the major capsid protein. The nascent hexon requires the 100 kDa folding protein to fold into its native, trimeric form. The hexon and 100 kDa folding protein were co-expressed in a fowlpox virus (FPV) vector and in the recombinant FPVs (rFPVs) in which the hexon and 100 kDa folding protein genes are cloned head to tail, the native hexon could be detected with indirect immunofluorescence and immunoprecipitation using a native hexon monoclonal antibody. The FPV-@X100 construct, in which the 100kDa folding protein gene follows the hexon gene in a head to tail fashion, elicited the best humoral response in chickens. An attenuated HEV commercial vaccine elicited higher and longer lasting anti-HEV titers than FPV-@X100. Humoral immunity was also compared in turkeys inoculated with rFPVs expressing the hexon alone, the 100 kDa folding protein alone, or expressing both genes in different configurations. No anti-HEV humoral immune response was detected in turkeys inoculated with the rFPVs expressing the hexon alone or the 100 kDa folding protein alone.

Abstract
The adenovirus L4 100-kDa nonstructural protein (100K protein) is required for efficient initiation of translation of viral late mRNA species during the late mRNA species during the late phase of infection (B. W. Hayes, G. C. Telling, M. M. Myat, J. F. Williams, and S. J. Flint, J. Virol. 64:2732-2742, 1990). The RNA-binding properties of this protein were analyzed in an immunoprecipitation assay with the 100K-specific monoclonal antibody 2100K-1 (C. L. Cepko and P. A. Sharp, Virology 129:137-154, 1983). Coprecipitation of the 100K protein and 3H-infected cell RNA was demonstrated. The RNA-binding activity of the 100K protein was inhibited by single-stranded DNA but not by double-stranded DNA, double-stranded RNA, or tRNA. Competition assays were used to investigate the specificity with which the 100K protein binds to RNA in vitro. Although the protein exhibited a strong preference for the ribohomopolymer poly(U) or poly(G), no specific binding to viral mRNA species could be detected; uninfected or adenovirus type 5-infected HeLa cell poly(A)-containing and poly(A)-lacking RNAs were all effective inhibitors of binding of the protein to viral late mRNA. Similar results were obtained when the binding of the 100K protein to a single, in vitro-synthesized L2 mRNA was assessed. The poly(U)-binding activity of the 100K protein was used to compare the RNA-binding properties of the 100K protein prepared from cells infected by adenovirus type 5 and the H5ts1 mutant (B. W. Hayes, G. C. Telling, M. M. Myat, J. F. Williams, and S. J. Flint, J. Virol. 64:2732-2742, 1990). A temperature-dependent decrease in H5ts1 100K protein binding was observed, correlating with the impaired translational function of this protein in vivo. By contrast, wild-type 100K protein RNA binding was unaffected by temperature. These data suggest that the 100K protein acts to increase the translational efficiency of viral late mRNA species by a mechanism that involves binding to RNA.

Abstract
When screening a number of adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) temperature-sensitive mutants for defects in viral gene expression, we observed that H5ts1-infected 293 cells accumulated reduced levels of newly synthesized viral late proteins. Pulse-labeling and pulse-chase experiments were used to establish that the late proteins synthesized in H5ts1-infected cells under nonpermissive conditions were as stable as those made in Ad5-infected cells. H5ts1-infected cells contained normal levels of viral late mRNAs. Because these observations implied that translation of viral mRNA species was defective in mutant virus-infected cells, the association of viral late mRNAs with polyribosomes was examined during the late phase of infection at a nonpermissive temperature. In Ad5-infected cells, the majority of the viral L2, L3, L4, pIX, and IVa2 late mRNA species were polyribosome bound. By contrast, these same mRNA species were recovered from H5ts1-infected cells in fractions nearer the top of polyribosome gradients, suggesting that initiation of translation was impaired. During the late phase of infection, neither the polyribosome association nor the translation of most viral early mRNA species was affected by the H5ts1 mutation. This lesion, mapped by marker rescue to the L4 100-kilodalton (kDa) nonstructural protein, has been identified as a single base pair substitution that replaces Ser-466 of the Ad5 100-kDa protein with Pro. A set of temperature-independent revertants of H5ts1 was isolated and characterized. Either true reversion of the H5ts1 mutation or second-site mutation of Pro-466 of the H5ts1 100-kDa protein to Thre, Leu, or His restored both temperature-independent growth and the efficient synthesis of viral late proteins. We therefore conclude that the Ad5 L4 100-kDa protein is necessary for efficient initiation of translation of viral late mRNA species during the late phase of infection.

Abstract
The proteins that interact with cytoplasmic and nuclear polyadenylated RNA in adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) infection of HeLa cells were examined by UV-induced RNA-protein cross-linking in intact cells. The Ad5 100-kilodalton late nonvirion protein (100K protein) was cross-linked to both host and viral polyadenylated cytoplasmic RNA (mRNA). The cross-linking of the 100K protein to mRNA appears to correlate with productive infection, because the protein is not cross-linked to mRNA in abortive infection of wild-type Ad5 in monkey cells (CV-1) even though normal amounts of it are produced. However, when CV-1 cells are infected with Ad5 hr404, and Ad5 mutant which overcomes the host restriction to wild-type Ad5 infection in these cells, the 100K protein is cross-linked to mRNA. To identify and obtain antibodies to RNA-contacting proteins, a mouse was immunized with oligo(dT)-selected cross-linked RNA-protein complexes from Ad5-infected cells and the serum was used for immunoblotting experiments. It was found that in addition to the 100K protein, the Ad5 72K DNA-binding protein is also associated with RNA in the infected cells. The 72K DNA-binding protein is cross-linked to polyadenylated nuclear RNA sequences. These findings indicate that adenovirus proteins interact with RNAs in the infected cell and suggest possible mechanisms for the effects of the virus on mRNA metabolism.

Abstract
Infection of cells with adenovirus lead to a characteristic reorganization of all cytoskeleton systems, starting with alterations at the microtubuli of the cells. During this progress, the flat, extended, and polar morphology of the cytoskeleton became nonpolar and rounder. These rearrangements were initiated before the appearance of adenovirus structural proteins hexon and fiber, as well as before the shutoff of host protein synthesis. We conclude that these alterations reflect a specific reorganization rather than an unorganized breakdown of the cell during adenovirus infection.

Abstract
Analysis of 100K-defective temperature-sensitive adenovirus mutants confirmed the multifunctional character of the nonstructural, virus-coded 100K protein. In addition to its function in hexon trimerization (altered in H5ts1), and its possible direct or indirect role in hexon transport to nucleus (mutated in H2ts118), genetic and biochemical evidence was presented that 100K play some critical role in the scaffolding process of adenovirus capsid. This function appeared to be defective in H2ts107 and to map between coordinates 69.0 and 69.9, leftward from the H5ts1 lesion (70-73 map units; Arrand, 1978). This corresponded to the central domain of the 100K protein, between amino acid 300 and 400 from the N end. DNA sequencing of cloned fragments of H2ts107 DNA overlapping the mutation revealed two point mutations on the same codon at nucleotide 25,082 and 25,083 (GAC----GCA), corresponding to a nonconservative amino acid change (aspartic acid----alanine) at position 324 in the 100K sequence. 100K of adenovirus 2 wild type (WT) was found to bind in significant amounts to novobiocin-affinity column, and to be coeluted with hexon, penton, IIIa, and cellular topoisomerase II activity, by novobiocin- or ATP-Mg2+-containing buffers. H2ts107 100K also bound to novobiocin column, but the elution pattern differed from that of WT, suggesting some alteration in the affinity of the mutated 100K for novobiocin. The same behavior on affinity column as H2ts107 100K was observed for 90K, a cleavage product of the 100K, found in great abundance in H2ts107 at 39.5 degrees and corresponding to the C-terminal moiety of the 100K molecule. This implied that the "novobiocin-binding" domain of the 100K was not confined at its N terminus, and was altered in the H2ts107 mutant.

Abstract
Avian adeno-associated virus (AAAV) pre-purified by Uvasol extraction, one discontinuous and two CsCl equilibrium density gradients, was still considerably contaminated with avian adenovirus (CELO strain). Four different approaches were investigated in attempts to improve the elimination of the contaminating CELO virus. The contaminations were assayed by double immunodiffusion and indirect immunofluorescence. The immunoprecipitation of CELO virus with antiserum and protein A-Sepharose is the most effective method of obtaining purified AAAV free of CELO virus.

Abstract
The initial steps of adenovirus capsid morphogenesis and the sequence of entry of structural and nonstructural proteins into assembly-intermediate (IM) particles were investigated by pulse-chase labeling, temperature shifts, and cycloheximide inhibition of particle formation. The experiments were performed on wild-type and two assembly-defective, temperature-sensitive mutants, H2 ts 112 and H2 ts 107. The sequence of events in the adenovirus assembly can be schematized as follows. (i) Hexons, pentons, and protein IX assembled with scaffolding proteins 100K, PVIII, and PVII, precursor to the major core protein, to form a previral particle banding at a density of 1.285 in CsCl; (ii) additional incorporation of maturation and/or stabilization proteins IIIa, 50K, 39K, 28K, and PVI led to 1.295 IM; (iii) exit of 100K, 39K, and 28K, and entry of viral DNA gave rise to 1.370 IM; (iv) dephosphorylation and/or exit of 50K and exchange with core protein V and processing of precursors to VII, VI, VIII, and DNA-terminal protein resulted in formation of infectious 1.345 virion. The polypeptide composition of the new class of assembly-intermediate particles elicited by H2 ts 107 (1.285 IM), suggested that 100K, PVIII, and also PVII might serve as scaffold components for adenovirus capsid building.
