Abstract
IMPORTANCE CSFV infection in pigs causes persistent high fever, hemorrhagic necrotizing multi-organ inflammation, and high mortality, which seriously threatens the global swine industry. Cell death is an essential immune response of the host against pathogen invasion, and lymphopenia is the most typical clinical feature in the acute phase of CSFV infection, which affects the initial host antiviral immunity. As an "old" virus, CSFV has evolved mechanisms to evade host immune response after a long genetic evolution. Here, we show that necroptosis is a limiting host factor for CSFV infection and that CSFV-induced autophagy can subvert this host defense mechanism to promote its sustained replication. Our findings reveal a complex link between necroptosis and autophagy in the process of cell death, provide evidence supporting the important role for CSFV in counteracting host cell necrosis, and enrich our knowledge of pathogens that may subvert and evade this host defense.

Abstract
Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) belongs to the family Flaviviridae genus pestivirus. The viral genome is a single-stranded, positive-sense RNA that encodes four structural proteins (i.e., C, Erns, E1, and E2) and eight non-structural proteins (NSPs) (i.e., Npro, p7, NS2, NS3, NS4A, NS4B, NS5A, and NS5B). Cattle infected with BVDV exhibit a number of different clinical signs including diarrhea, abortion, and other reproductive disorders which have a serious impact on the cattle industry worldwide. Research on BVDV mainly focuses on its structural protein, however, progress in understanding the functions of the NSPs of BVDV has also been made in recent decades. The knowledge gained on the BVDV non-structural proteins is helpful to more fully understand the viral replication process and the molecular mechanism of viral persistent infection. This review focuses on the functions of BVDV NSPs and provides references for the identification of BVDV, the diagnosis and prevention of Bovine viral diarrhea mucosal disease (BVD-MD), and the development of vaccines.

Downstream Sequences Control the Processing of the Pestivirus E rns-E1 Precursor. J Virol 2020; 95:JVI.01905-20. [PMID: 33028718 DOI: 10.1128/jvi.01905-20] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2020] [Accepted: 09/30/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Like other enveloped viruses, pestiviruses employ cellular proteases for processing of their structural proteins. While typical signal peptidase cleavage motifs are present at the carboxy terminus of the signal sequence preceding Erns and the E1/E2 and E2/P7 sites, the Erns-E1 precursor is cleaved by signal peptidase at a highly unusual structure, in which the transmembrane sequence upstream of the cleavage site is replaced by an amphipathic helix. As shown before, the integrity of the amphipathic helix is crucial for efficient processing. The data presented here demonstrate that the E1 sequence downstream of this cleavage site is also important for the cleavage. Carboxy-terminal truncation of the E1 moiety as well as internal deletions in E1 reduced the cleavage efficiency to less than 30% of the wild-type (wt) level. Moreover, the C-terminal truncation by more than 30 amino acids resulted in strong secretion of the uncleaved fusion proteins. The reduced processing and increased secretion were even observed when 10 to 5 amino-terminal residues of E1 were left, whereas extensions by 1 or 3 E1 residues resulted in reduced processing but no significantly increased secretion. In contrast to the E1 sequences, a 10-amino-acid c-myc tag fused to the Erns C terminus had only marginal effect on secretion but was also not processed efficiently. Mutation of the von Heijne sequence upstream of E2 not only blocked the cleavage between E1 and E2 but also prevented the processing between Erns and E2. Thus, processing at the Erns-E1 site is a highly regulated process.IMPORTANCE Cellular signal peptidase (SPase) cleavage represents an important step in maturation of viral envelope proteins. Fine tuning of this system allows for establishment of concerted folding and processing processes in different enveloped viruses. We report here on SPase processing of the Erns-E1-E2 glycoprotein precursor of pestiviruses. Erns-E1 cleavage is delayed and only executed efficiently when the complete E1 sequence is present. C-terminal truncation of the Erns-E1 precursor impairs processing and leads to significant secretion of the protein. The latter is not detected when internal deletions preserving the E1 carboxy terminus are introduced, but also these constructs show impaired processing. Moreover, Erns-E1 is only processed after cleavage at the E1/E2 site. Thus, processing of the pestiviral glycoprotein precursor by SPase is done in an ordered way and depends on the integrity of the proteins for efficient cleavage. The functional importance of this processing scheme is discussed in the paper.

Abstract
Classical swine fever (CSF) is among the most relevant viral epizootic diseases of swine. Due to its severe economic impact, CSF is notifiable to the world organisation for animal health. Strict control policies, including systematic stamping out of infected herds with and without vaccination, have permitted regional virus eradication. Nevertheless, CSF virus (CSFV) persists in certain areas of the world and has re-emerged regularly. This review summarizes the basic established knowledge in the field and provides a comprehensive and updated overview of the recent advances in fundamental CSFV research, diagnostics and vaccine development. It covers the latest discoveries on the genetic diversity of pestiviruses, with implications for taxonomy, the progress in understanding disease pathogenesis, immunity against acute and persistent infections, and the recent findings in virus-host interactions and virulence determinants. We also review the progress and pitfalls in the improvement of diagnostic tools and the challenges in the development of modern and efficacious marker vaccines compatible with serological tests for disease surveillance. Finally, we highlight the gaps that require research efforts in the future.
