Virion proteome of Cafeteria roenbergensis virus strain BV-PW1

ABSTRACT: This project describes the protein composition of the Cafeteria roenbergensis virus (CroV, strain BV-PW1: TaxID 693272) particle, a giant marine DNA virus that infects the heterotrophic nanoflagellate microeukaryote C. roenbergensis. CroV is a member of the Nucleo-Cytoplasmic Large DNA Virus clade and related to Acanthamoeba polyphaga mimivirus. CroV possesses a DNA genome of ~730 kilobase pairs that encodes 544 predicted proteins. We analyzed the protein composition of purified CroV particles by liquid chromatography - tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and identified 141 virion-associated CroV proteins. Predicted functions could be assigned to 37% of these proteins, which include structural proteins as well as enzymes for transcription, DNA repair, redox reactions and protein modification. Homologs of 36 CroV virion proteins have previously been found in the virion of Acanthamoeba polyphaga mimivirus. This study shows that giant DNA virus particles contain more than one hundred viral proteins that include specific enzymatic functions.

Proteomic analysis of virion and genomic fibre of Mimivirus reunion

Project description:Mimivirus is the prototype of the Mimiviridae family of giant dsDNA viruses, initially isolated in Acanthamoeba. Little is known about the organization of the viral genome inside the membrane limited nucleoid and whether unpacking or other rearrangements are required prior to early transcription and replication. Here we used Mimivirus reunion (an isolate from La Réunion Island) and showed that in vitro opening of its large icosahedral capsid leads to the release of electron dense, 30 nm diameter rod-shaped objects that appear to be expelled and unwinding from the particles. We developed a purification procedure and performed a mass spectrometry-based characterization of the protein content of the genomic fibre, as well as total virion.

Proteomic characterization of Zamilon vitis virions produced in various contexts

Project description:Acanthamoeba-infecting Mimiviridae belong to three clades: Mimiviruses (A), Moumouviruses (B) and Megaviruses (C). The uniquely complex mobilome of these giant viruses includes virophages and linear 7 kb-DNA molecules called “transpovirons”. We recently isolated a new virophage (Zamilon vitis) and two new transpovirons (maBtv and mvCtv) respectively associated to B-clade and C-clade Mimiviridae. We used the capacity of the Zamilon virophage to replicate both on B-clade and C-clade host viruses to investigate the three partite interaction network governing the propagation of transpovirons. We notably performed proteomic comparisons of host viruses and virophage particles carrying or cleared of transpovirons in search of proteins involved in this adaptation process. These experiments revealed that transpoviron-encoded proteins are synthetized during the combined Mimiviridae/virophage/transpoviron replication process and are specifically incorporated into the virophage and Mimiviridae virions together with the cognate transpoviron DNA. This is a unique example of intricate commensalism in the viral world, where the Zamilon virophage and the transpoviron depend on their host giant virus to replicate, and the transpoviron depends on the virophage to propagate from one host virus to another.

Proteomic analyses of Pandoravirions

Project description:With its 2.5 Mb DNA genome packed in amphora-shaped particles of bacterium-like dimension (1.2 µm in length, 0.5 µm in diameter), the Acanthamoeba-infecting Pandoravirus salinus remained the most spectacular and intriguing virus since its description in 2013. Following its isolation from shallow marine sediment off the coast of central Chile, that of its relative Pandoravirus dulcis from a fresh water pond near Melbourne, Australia, suggested that they were the first representatives of an emerging worldwide-distributed family of giant viruses. This was further suggested when P. inopinatum discovered in Germany, was sequenced in 2015. We now report the isolation and genome sequencing of three new strains (P. quercus, P.neocaledonia, P. macleodensis) from France, New Caledonia, and Australia. Using a combination of transcriptomic, proteomic, and bioinformatic analyses, we found that these six viruses share enough distinctive features to justify their classification in a new family, the Pandoraviridae, distinct from that of other large DNA viruses.
