Abstract
Alphaherpesvirus is a widespread pathogen that causes diverse diseases in humans and animals and can severely damage host health. Alphaherpesvirus particles comprise a DNA core, capsid, tegument and envelope; the tegument is located between the nuclear capsid and envelope. According to biochemical and proteomic analyses of alphaherpesvirus particles, the tegument contains at least 24 viral proteins and plays an important role in the alphaherpesvirus life cycle. This article reviews the important role of tegument proteins and their interactions during the viral life cycle to provide a reference and inspiration for understanding alphaherpesvirus infection pathogenesis and identifying new antiviral strategies.

[PMID: 37627398 PMCID: PMC10451702 DOI: 10.3390/ani13162607] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2023] [Revised: 07/27/2023] [Accepted: 08/07/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Bovine herpes virus -1 (BoHV-1) infection leads to upper respiratory tract infection, conjunctivitis and genital disorders in cattle. To control BoHV-1, it is important to understand the role of viral proteins in viral infection. BoHV-1 has several gene products to help in viral replication in infected cell. One such gene is deoxyuridine triphosphate nucleotidohydrolase (dUTPase) also known as UL50. In this study, we analyzed the amino acid sequence of UL50 (dUTPase) using bioinformatics tools and found that it was highly conserved among herpesvirus family. Then, it was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli Rosetta (DE3), induced by isopropy1-b-D-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG) and the recombinant UL50 protein was purified to immunize rabbits for the preparation of polyclonal antiserum. The results indicated that the UL50 gene of BoHV-1 was composed of 978 nucleotides, which encoded 323 amino acids. Western blot analysis revealed that polyclonal sera against UL50 reacted with a band of 34 kDa. Furthermore, immunofluorescence assay showed that UL50 localized in the cytoplasmic area. Taken together, UL50 was successfully cloned, expressed and detected in BoHV-1-infected cells and was localized in the cytoplasm to help in the replication of BoHV-1 in infected cells.
