Virus Res 2019; 270:197670. [PMID: 31330206 DOI: 10.1016/j.virusres.2019.197670] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2019] [Revised: 07/16/2019] [Accepted: 07/17/2019] [Indexed: 10/26/2022]
Abstract
The nuclear localization signals (NLS) were usually composed of basic residues (K and R) and played an important role in delivery of genomes and structural protein into nucleus. In this research, we identified that 3Dpol/3CD entered into nucleus during viral propagation of duck hepatitis A virus type 1 (DHAV-1). To investigate the reason that 3Dpol/3CD entered into nucleus, the amino acid sequence of 3CD was analyzed through NLS Mapper program. The basic region 17PRKTAYMRS25 was subsequently proved to be a functional NLS to guide 3Dpol/3CD into nucleus. 18R, 19K and 24R were found essential for maintaining the nuclear targeting activity, and exchange between 24R and 24K had no impact on cellular localization of 3Dpol. Since the entry of 3Dpol/3CD into nucleus was essential for shutoff of host cell transcription and maintaining the viral propagation of picornavirus numbers, our study provided new insights into the mechanism of DHAV-1 propagation.

Zhang Y, Cao Q, Wang M, Jia R, Chen S, Zhu D, Liu M, Sun K, Yang Q, Wu Y, Zhao X, Chen X, Cheng A. The 3D protein of duck hepatitis A virus type 1 binds to a viral genomic 3' UTR and shows RNA-dependent RNA polymerase activity. Virus Genes 2017; 53:831-839. [PMID: 28600723 DOI: 10.1007/s11262-017-1476-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2017] [Accepted: 06/05/2017] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
To explore the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP) function of the 3D protein of duck hepatitis A virus type 1 (DHAV-1), the gene was cloned into the pET-32a(+) vector for prokaryotic expression. The 3' untranslated region (3' UTR) of DHAV-1 together with a T7 promoter was cloned into the pMD19-T vector for in vitro transcription of 3' UTR RNA, which was further used as a template in RNA-dependent RNA polymerization. In this study, three methods were applied to analyze the RdRP function of the 3D protein: (1) ammonium molybdate spectrophotometry to detect pyrophosphate produced during polymerization; (2) quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) to investigate the changes in RNA quantity during polymerization; and (3) electrophoresis mobility shift assay to examine the interaction between the 3D protein and 3' UTR. The results showed the 3D protein was successfully expressed in bacteria culture supernatant in a soluble form, which could be purified by affinity chromatography. In 3D enzymatic activity assays, pyrophosphate and RNA were produced, the amounts of which increased based on approximative kinetics, and binding of the 3D protein to the 3' UTR was observed. These results indicate that prokaryotically expressed soluble DHAV-13D protein can bind to a viral genomic 3' UTR and exhibit RdRP activity.
