Nonstructural Protein NS80 Is Crucial in Recruiting Viral Components to Form Aquareoviral Factories
BACKGROUND Replication and assembly of vertebrate reoviruses occur in specific intracellular compartments known as viral factories. Recently, NS88 and NS80, the nonstructural proteins from aquareoviruses, have been proposed to share common traits with µNS from orthoreoviruses, which are involved in the formation of viral factories. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS In this study, the NS80 charac...
متن کاملThe poxviral RING protein p28 is a ubiquitin ligase that targets ubiquitin to viral replication factories.
The poxviral RING protein p28 is a virulence factor whose molecular function is unknown. Many cellular RING-containing proteins act as ubiquitin ligases (RING-E3s) connecting selected substrate proteins to the ubiquitination machinery. Here we demonstrate that vaccinia virus p28 and its homologue in myxoma virus, M143R, can mediate the formation of polyubiquitin conjugates, while RING mutants o...
متن کاملBunyamwera bunyavirus nonstructural protein NSs is a nonessential gene product that contributes to viral pathogenesis.
Bunyamwera virus (family Bunyaviridae, genus Bunyavirus) contains a tripartite negative-sense RNA genome. The smallest RNA segment, S, encodes the nucleocapsid protein N and a nonstructural protein, NSs, in overlapping reading frames. We have generated a mutant virus lacking NSs, called BUNdelNSs, by reverse genetics. Compared with the wild-type (wt) virus, BUNdelNSs exhibited a smaller plaque ...
متن کاملThe N-Terminal of Aquareovirus NS80 Is Required for Interacting with Viral Proteins and Viral Replication
Reovirus replication and assembly occurs within viral inclusion bodies that formed in specific intracellular compartments of cytoplasm in infected cells. Previous study indicated that aquareovirus NS80 is able to form inclusion bodies, and also can retain viral proteins within its inclusions. To better understand how NS80 performed in viral replication and assembly, the functional regions of NS...
متن کاملRotavirus Nonstructural Protein NSP3 is not required for viral protein synthesis.
Initiation is the rate-limiting step in protein synthesis and therefore an important target for regulation. For the initiation of translation of most cellular mRNAs, the cap structure at the 5' end is bound by the translation factor eukaryotic initiation factor 4E (eIF4E), while the poly(A) tail, at the 3' end, is recognized by the poly(A)-binding protein (PABP). eIF4G is a scaffold protein tha...
