Project description:Alphaviruses are mosquito-vectored, positive-strand RNA viruses causing rheumatic and neurological diseases. Like all RNA viruses, they encode an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp, nsP4). Purification of an nsP4 derivative capable of processive RNA synthesis from a heteropolymeric template has been unsuccessful. Prior studies indicated O’nyong-nyong virus (ONNV) nsP4 is soluble and requires additional non-structural proteins for activity. We performed biochemical and biophysical characterization of ONNV nsP4, including analytical ultracentrifugation and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), revealing an extended conformation inconsistent with AlphaFold predictions of a compact structure. Fold switching was required for the extended conformation. Hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry confirmed the fold-switched, extended state. Phylogenetic analysis showed conservation of residues contributing to both extended and compact states, implying functional roles for each. The extended form exhibited weak RNA binding and no polymerase activity on primed templates. The SAXS envelope of a precursor containing 50 amino acids from the nsP3 C-terminus (CT50-P34) matched the compact state. We propose precursor forms adopt the compact conformation. At the replication site, proteolytic cleavage would convert the precursor to an active polymerase. Polymerase dissociation upon completion of synthesis would induce fold switching to the inactive, extended state, precluding cytoplasmic activity that would activate intracellular immune responses.

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV) remains a potentially significant public health concern because it can cause teratogenic effects, such as microcephaly in newborns and neurological disease, like Guillain-Barré syndrome. Together with efforts to develop a vaccine, the discovery of antiviral molecules is important to control ZIKV infections and to prevent its most severe symptoms. Here, we report the development of small nonnucleoside inhibitors (NNIs) of ZIKV RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) activity. These NNIs target an allosteric pocket (N pocket) located next to a putative hinge region between the thumb and the palm subdomains that was originally described for dengue virus (DENV) RdRp. We first tested the activity of DENV RdRp N-pocket inhibitors against ZIKV RdRp, introduced chemical modifications into these molecules, and assessed their potency using both enzymatic and cell-based assays. The most potent compound had a 50% inhibitory concentration value of 7.3 μM and inhibited ZIKV replication in a cell-based assay with a 50% effective concentration value of 24.3 μM. Importantly, we report four high-resolution crystal structures detailing how these NNIs insert into the N pocket of ZIKV RdRp. Our observations point to subtle differences in the size, shape, chemical environment, and hydration of the N pocket from ZIKV RdRp from those of the N pocket from DENV RdRp that are crucial for the design of improved antiviral inhibitors with activity against ZIKV.IMPORTANCE Zika virus belongs to the Flavivirus genus, which comprises several important human pathogens. There is currently neither an approved vaccine nor antiviral drugs available to prevent infection by ZIKV. The nonstructural protein 5 (NS5) polymerase, which is responsible for replicating the viral RNA genome, represents one of the most promising targets for antiviral drug development. Starting from compounds recently developed against dengue virus NS5, we designed and synthesized inhibitors targeting Zika virus NS5. We show that these novel compounds inhibit viral replication by targeting the polymerase activity. High-resolution X-ray crystallographic structures of protein-inhibitor complexes demonstrated specific binding to an allosteric site within the polymerase, called the N pocket. This work paves the way for the future structure-based design of potent compounds specifically targeting ZIKV RNA polymerase activity.

Project description:Dengue virus is an + strand RNA virus. We have carried our infections of human cells with Dengue and analyzed the translation, replication, and localization of the Dengue RNA. This allowed for clear definition of the life cycle of the Dengue virus inside a host cell. We also assessed the host response to Dengue virus, finding that a large fraction of the translational response is due to Interferon function.

Project description:African swine fever virus is highly contagious and causes a fatal infectious disease in pigs, resulting in a significant global impact on pork supply. The African swine fever virus RNA polymerase serves as a crucial multifunctional protein complex responsible for genome transcription and regulation. Therefore, it is essential to investigate its structural and functional characteristics for the prevention and control of African swine fever. Here, we determine the structures of endogenous African swine fever virus RNA polymerase in both nucleic acid-free and elongation states. The African swine fever virus RNA polymerase shares similarities with the core of typical RNA polymerases, but possesses a distinct subunit M1249L. Notably, the dynamic binding mode of M1249L with RNA polymerase, along with the C-terminal tail insertion of M1249L in the active center of DNA-RNA scaffold binding, suggests the potential of M1249L to regulate RNA polymerase activity within cells. These results are important for understanding the transcription cycle of African swine fever virus and for developing antiviral strategies.

Project description:Infection with dengue viruses (DENVs) leads to a spectrum of disease outcomes. The pathophysiology of severe versus non-severe manifestations of DENV infection may be driven by host responses, which could be reflected in the transcriptional profiles of peripheral blood immune cells. We conducted genome-wide microarray analysis of whole blood RNA from 34 DENV-infected children in Nicaragua collected on days 3–6 of illness, with different disease manifestations. Gene expression analysis identified genes that are differentially regulated between clinical subgroups. The most striking transcriptional differences were observed between dengue patients with and without shock, especially in the expression of mitochondrial ribosomal proteins associated with protein biosynthesis. In the dengue hemorrhagic fever patients, one subset of differentially expressed genes encode neutrophil-derived anti-microbial peptides associated with innate immunity. We analyzed 44 HEEBO arrays on which were hybridized RNA amplified from whole blood collected into PAXgene tubes. 34 samples were collected from DENV-infected patients who presented between days 3-6 of illness. Six convalescent samples collected 14-19 days after onset of symptoms were from two dengue fever patients, one dengue hemorrhagic fever patient and three dengue shock syndrome patients. Additionally, samples from four normal healthy individuals were also analyzed.

Project description:Rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) belongs to the family Caliciviridae, genus Lagovirus and is used in Australia as a biocontrol tool to keep the population of european rabbits low. This virus has a positive-sense single-stranded RNA genome that encodes structural (capsid) and non-structural proteins. Due to the lack of an established cell culture system for this virus, some of the non-structural proteins are yet awaiting characterisation and their function is unknown. This work was aimed at the identification of cellular interactors of RHDV proteins p23 and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp). p23 has an unknown function and RdRp is the main enzyme that replicates viral genome. SILAC-labeled rabbit kidney (RK13) cells were transfected with the FLAG-tagged viral proteins and GFP-transfected cells served as an internal control. For example, two replicates of heavy Arg and Lys labeled cells were transfected with protein p23 and two replicates of light Arg and Lys labeled cells were transfected with GFP. For the third replicate this was swapped: 'heavy' cells were transfected with GFP and 'light' cells were transfected with p23. After that, cells were harvested, lysed in mild conditions and applied onto anti-FLAG antibody resin for immunoprecipitation. Eluates from the resin were processed for mass spectrometry processing.
