Muscovy duck reovirus p10.8 protein localizes to the nucleus via a nonconventional nuclear localization signal.

ABSTRACT:

Background

It was previously report that the first open reading frame of Muscovy duck reocvirus S4 gene encodes a 95-amino-acid protein, designed p10.8, which has no sequence similarity to other known proteins. Its amino acid sequence offers no clues about its function.

Results

Subcellular localization and nuclear import signal of p10.8 were characterized. We found that p10.8 protein localizes to the nucleus of infected and transfected cells, suggesting that p10.8 nuclear localization is not facilitated by viral infection or any other viral protein. A functional non-canonical nuclear localization signal (NLS) for p10.8 was identified and mapped to N-terminus residues 1-40. The NLS has the ability to retarget a large cytoplasmic protein to the nucleus.

Conclusions

p10.8 imported into the nucleus might via a nonconventional signal nuclear signal.

Simultaneous detection and differentiation of classical Muscovy duck reovirus and goose-origin Muscovy duck reovirus by RT-qPCR assay with high-resolution melting analysis.

Project description:IntroductionClassical Muscovy duck reovirus (C-MDRV) and goose-origin Muscovy duck reovirus (Go-MDRV) infections cause "Liver white-spots disease" in Muscovy duckling and gosling. It is difficult to differentiate the infections caused by C-MDRV and Go-MDRV using conventional serological methods.MethodsSpecific primers were designed and synthesized according to σNS and λA nucleotide sequences of C-MDRV and Go-MDRV, respectively. The PCR amplified products were cloned into the pMD-18-T vector. The recombinant plasmid DNA was used to establish an SYBR Green І based duplex real-time PCR assay for the simultaneous detection and differentiation of C-MDRV and Go-MDRV using high-resolution melting (HRM) analysis. The specificity, sensitivity, and repeatability of the methodology were examined based on the optimization of the reaction system and amplification conditions.ResultsC-MDRV and Go-MDRV were identified by their distinctive melting temperatures with 84.50 ± 0.25°C for C-MDRV and 87.50 ± 0.20°C for Go-MDRV, respectively. The amplifications were specific, and other non-targeted waterfowl viruses employed in this study did not show normalized melting peaks. The intra- and inter-assay coefficients of variations were between 0.05 and 1.83%, demonstrating good repeatability. The detection limits of this assay were 51.4 copies·μl-1 for C-MDRV and 61.8 copies·μl-1 for Go-MDRV, respectively. A total of 45 clinical samples were tested by RT-qPCR, with positive rates of 15.56% for C-MDRV and 22.22% for Go-MDRV, without co-infections.DiscussionThese results suggest that this duplex RT-qPCR method is highly sensitive, specific, and reproducible. The HRM assay established in this study provides a powerful tool for the differential detection and epidemiological investigation of C-MDRV and Go-MDRV.

Analysis of differentially expressed proteins in Muscovy duck embryo fibroblasts infected with virulent and attenuated Muscovy duck reovirus by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

Project description:Muscovy duck reovirus (MDRV) belongs to the Orthoreovirus genus of the Reoviridae family, which is a significant poultry pathogen leading to high morbidity and mortality in ducklings. However, the pathogenesis of the virus is not well understood. In the present study, two-dimensional (2D) polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) combined with LC-MS-MS was used to identify differentially expressed proteins between Muscovy duck embryo fibroblasts (MDEF) infected with virulent (MV9710 strain) and attenuated (CA strain) MDRV and non-infected MDEFs. A total of 115 abundant protein spots were identified. Of these, 59 of differentially expressed proteins were detected, with functions in metabolism and utilization of carbohydrates and nucleotides, anti-stress, and regulation of immune and cellular process. GO analysis of the identified proteins showed that they belonged to the classes molecular function (141 proteins), cellular component (62 proteins), and biological process (146 proteins). The results were validated by qRT-PCR, which suggests that the analysis method of 2D PAGE combined with LC-MS-MS used in this study is reliable. This study lays a foundation for further investigation of the biology of MDRV infection in MDEF.

RKIP localizes to the nucleus through a bipartite nuclear localization signal and interaction with importin α to regulate mitotic progression.

Project description:Raf kinase inhibitor protein (RKIP) is a multifunctional modulator of intracellular signal transduction. Although most of its functions have been considered cytosolic, we show here that the localization of RKIP is primarily nuclear in both growing and quiescent Madin-Darby canine kidney epithelial cells and in Cal-51 and BT-20 human breast cancer cells. We have identified a putative bipartite nuclear localization signal (NLS) in RKIP that maps to the surface of the protein surrounding a known regulatory region. Like classical NLS sequences, the putative NLS of RKIP is rich in arginine and lysine residues. Deletion of and point mutations in the putative NLS lead to decreased nuclear localization. Point mutation of all the basic residues in the putative NLS of RKIP particularly strongly reduces nuclear localization. We found consistent results in reexpression experiments with wildtype or mutant RKIP in RKIP-silenced cells. A fusion construct of the putative NLS of RKIP alone to a heterologous reporter protein leads to nuclear localization of the fusion protein, demonstrating that this sequence alone is sufficient for import into the nucleus. We found that RKIP interacts with the nuclear transport factor importin α in BT-20 and MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells, suggesting importin-mediated active nuclear translocation. Evaluating the biological function of nuclear localization of RKIP, we found that the presence of the putative NLS is important for the role of RKIP in mitotic checkpoint regulation in MCF-7 human breast cancer cells. Taken together, these findings suggest that a bipartite NLS in RKIP interacts with importin α for active transport of RKIP into the nucleus and that this process may be involved in the regulation of mitotic progression.

Infection with novel duck reovirus induces stress granule and methylation-mediated host translational shutoff in Muscovy ducklings.

Project description:The recently identified novel duck reovirus (NDRV) is a waterfowl reovirus that can seriously harm or kill various waterfowl species. However, how NDRV interacts with host cells in Muscovy ducklings beyond the typical pathogenesis resulting from a viral infection is unknown. The current study examined the global translation efficiency of the Fabricius bursa of Muscovy ducklings infected with NDRV HN10 using mass spectrometry and ribosome footprint sequencing. Protein-protein interactions were investigated using immunogold labeling, transmission electron microscopy, and immunocytochemistry. An analysis of the relationship between m6A and translation was performed using RNA immunoprecipitation and m6A methylation immunoprecipitation. We found that both in vivo and in vitro, the translation efficiency of RNA modified with m6A could be significantly reduced by σB, a structural protein component of NDRV HN10. Furthermore, σB might simultaneously interact with the stress granule complex CAPRIN1 and G3BP1 and the m6A reader protein YTHDF1/3. Significant overlap was observed between m6A-modified and G3BP1-enriched RNA, indicating that granule stress could capture m6A-methylated RNA. We discovered a new function for NDRV HN10 in translational shutoff by recruiting m6A-modified RNA into stress granules located in the Fabricius bursa of Muscovy ducklings.

Recombinant Muscovy Duck Parvovirus Led to Ileac Damage in Muscovy Ducklings.

Project description:Waterfowl parvovirus (WPFs) has multiple effects on the intestinal tract, but the effects of recombinant Muscovy duck parvovirus (rMDPV) have not been elucidated. In this study, 48 one-day-old Muscovy ducklings were divided into an infected group and a control group. Plasma and ileal samples were collected from both groups at 2, 4, 6, and 8 days post-infection (dpi), both six ducklings at a time. Next, we analyzed the genomic sequence of the rMDPV strain. Results showed that the ileal villus structure was destroyed seriously at 4, 6, 8 dpi, and the expression of ZO-1, Occludin, and Claudin-1 decreased at 4, 6 dpi; 4, 6, 8 dpi; and 2, 6 dpi, respectively. Intestinal cytokines IFN-α, IL-1β and IL-6 increased at 6 dpi; 8 dpi; and 6, 8 dpi, respectively, whereas IL-2 decreased at 6, 8 dpi. The diversity of ileal flora increased significantly at 4 dpi and decreased at 8 dpi. The bacteria Ochrobactrum and Enterococcus increased and decreased at 4, 8 dpi; 2, 4 dpi, respectively. Plasma MDA increased at 2 dpi, SOD, CAT, and T-AOC decreased at 2, 4, 8 dpi; 4, 8 dpi; and 4, 6, 8 dpi, respectively. These results suggest that rMDPV infection led to early intestinal barrier dysfunction, inflammation, ileac microbiota disruption, and oxidative stress.

Distinct Whole Transcriptomic Profiles of the Bursa of Fabricius in Muscovy Ducklings Infected by Novel Duck Reovirus with Different Virulence.

Project description:Novel duck reovirus (NDRV) is a newly identified reovirus that brings about more severe damage on multiple organs and mortality in various species of waterfowl. We previously characterized the transcriptomic profiles responding to NDRV in the bursa of Fabricius of Muscovy ducklings, which is a major immunological organ against virus infection. However, the molecular mechanisms of variant cell responses in the bursa of Fabricius to NDRV with different virulence is unclear. Here, we conducted a whole transcriptomic analysis to study the effects of two strains, HN10 (virulent NDRV) and JDm10 (artificially attenuated NDRV), on the bursa of Fabricius of Muscovy ducklings. We harvested a large number of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of the bursa of Fabricius specially induced by HN10 and JDm10, and we found that HN10 induced DEGs enriched in differentiation and development in multiple organs beyond JDm10. Moreover, the ceRNA regulatory network also indicated the different connections among mRNA, lncRNA and miRNA. Interestingly, we further noticed that a population of differential expressed miRNA could particularly target to transcripts of HN10 and JDm10. We took miR-24 as an example and observed that miR-24 could reduce the transcription of GLI family zinc finger 3 (Gli3) and membrane-associated guanylate kinase, WW and PDZ domain containing 1 (Magi1) via recognition 3' UTR of these two genes by a dual luciferase reporter gene assay in vitro. However, this effect could be compromised by HN10 infection or the ectopic over-expression of the putative miR-24 targeting regions in L1 and L3 fragments of HN10. Taken together, we examined and proposed a novel regulatory competitive mechanism between transcripts of NDRV and Muscovy ducklings for miRNA. These findings may advance the understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of NDRV in Muscovy ducklings, and help provide the potential targets for vaccine and drug development against NDRV.

Metal-responsive transcription factor 1 (MTF-1) activity is regulated by a nonconventional nuclear localization signal and a metal-responsive transactivation domain.

Project description:Metal-responsive transcription factor 1 (MTF-1) mediates both basal and heavy metal-induced transcription of metallothionein genes and also regulates other genes involved in the cell stress response and in metal homeostasis. In resting cells, MTF-1 localizes to both the cytoplasm and the nucleus but quantitatively accumulates in the nucleus upon metal load and under other stress conditions. Here we show that within the DNA-binding domain, a region spanning zinc fingers 1 to 3 (amino acids [aa] 137 to 228 in human MTF-1) harbors a nonconventional nuclear localization signal. This protein segment confers constitutive nuclear localization to a cytoplasmic marker protein. The deletion of the three zinc fingers impairs nuclear localization. The export of MTF-1 to the cytoplasm is controlled by a classical nuclear export signal (NES) embedded in the acidic activation domain. We show that this activation domain confers metal inducibility in distinct cell types when fused to a heterologous DNA-binding domain. Furthermore, the cause of a previously described stronger inducibility of human versus mouse MTF-1 could be narrowed down to a 3-aa difference in the NES; "humanizing" mouse MTF-1 at these three positions enhanced its metal inducibility to the level of human MTF-1.
