MYH9 Key Amino Acid Residues Identified by the Anti-Idiotypic Antibody to Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus Glycoprotein 5 Involve in the Virus Internalization by Porcine Alveolar Macrophages.

ABSTRACT: MYH9 has been identified as an indispensable cellular protein for porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) entry into permissive cells using the monoclonal anti-idiotypic antibody (Mab2-5G2) recognizing an antibody that specifically interacts with PRRSV glycoprotein 5 (GP5). More recently, we found that Mab2-5G2 interacted with the MYH9 C-terminal domain, designated PRA, which is required for PRRSV internalization. In this study, we demonstrate that blocking of MYH9 with Mab2-5G2 significantly diminished PRRSV internalization by porcine alveolar macrophage (PAM) via interruption of direct interaction between GP5 and MYH9, and thus remarkably inhibited subsequent infection of PAMs by PRRSV-2 isolates. Moreover, the three-dimensional structure of the Mab2-5G2 Fab-PRA compl
