Little is known about the intermolecular interactions between the viral proteins of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV). By using the yeast two-hybrid system, which allows the detection of protein-protein interactions in vivo, all possible interactions were tested by fusing the viral proteins to the LexA DNA-binding domain and the B42 transactivation domain. A heterologous interaction betwee...
The icosahedral capsid structure of simian virus 40 (diameter, 45 nm) consists of 72 pentameric subunits, with each subunit formed by five VP1 molecules. Electron microscopy, immuno-gold labeling, and ζ-potential analysis showed that purified recombinant VP1 pentamers covered polystyrene beads measuring 100, 200, and 500 nm in diameter, as well as silica beads. In addition to covering spherical...
We investigated whether the VP1 protein of simian virus 40 binds to DNA. In vitro DNA-binding experiments clearly indicate that VP1 bound strongly to double-stranded and single-stranded DNA, with a higher affinity for the latter; additional experiments show that VP1 did not bind to a specific sequence of simian virus 40 DNA.
A model has previously been proposed for the genetic relatedness of the structural proteins of polyoma virus, based upon similarities in the peptide maps of the major capsid protein VP1 with the virion proteins VP2 and VP3. Newer evidence suggests that this model is incorrect, and that protein VP1 is a product of one viral gene and that the multiple components of VP2 and VP3 are products of a s...
BACKGROUND Chicken anemia virus (CAV), the causative agent chicken anemia, is the only member of the genus Gyrovirus of the Circoviridae family. CAV is an immune suppressive virus and causes anemia, lymph organ atrophy and immunodeficiency. The production and biochemical characterization of VP1 protein and its use in a subunit vaccine or as part of a diagnostic kit would be useful to CAV infect...
Field isolates of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) have a restricted cell tropism which is limited by the need for certain RGD-dependent integrin receptors. In contrast, cell culture-adapted viruses use heparan sulfate (HS) or other unidentified molecules as receptors to initiate infection. Here, we report several novel findings resulting from cell culture adaptation of FMDV. In cell culture...
The VP1 subunit of the picornavirus capsid is the major antigenic determinant and mediates host cell attachment and virus entry. To investigate the localisation of Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV) VP1 during infection, a bioinformatics approach was used to predict a surface-exposed, linear epitope region of the protein for subsequent expression and purification. This region, comp...
Capsids of polyomaviruses--small, nonenveloped DNA viruses--consist of the major structural protein VP1 and the minor structural proteins VP2 and VP3. The contributions of the individual capsid proteins to functions of the viral particle, such as DNA encapsidation, cell receptor attachment, entry, and uncoating, are still not clear. Here we show that viruslike particles assembled in nuclei of i...
Seven neutralizing monoclonal antibodies were used to characterize 30 escape mutants of a type O foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) virus (O1 Kaufbeuren) selected with the five most active antibodies. Three non-overlapping antigenic sites were found by ELISA and cross-neutralization studies. Within two of the sites the epitopes of two or more monoclonal antibodies overlapped. Two of the sites were co...
Transient disulfide bonding occurs during the intracellular folding and pentamerization of simian virus 40 (SV40) major capsid protein Vp1 (P. P. Li, A. Nakanishi, S. W. Clark, and H. Kasamatsu, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 99:1353-1358, 2002). We investigated the requirement for Vp1 cysteine pairs during SV40 infection. Our analysis identified three Vp1 double-cysteine mutant combinations that a...
