A Significant Difference in Core PDZ Interactivity of SARS-CoV, SARS-CoV2 and MERS-CoV Protein E Peptide PDZ Motifs In Vitro.


ABSTRACT: Small structural E protein of coronaviruses uses its C-terminal PDZ motif to compromise the cellular PDZ interactome. In this work we compared core PDZ interactivity of small (seven amino acids) peptide PDZ motifs, originating from the envelope proteins of recently transmitted coronaviruses SARS-CoV, SARS-CoV2, and MERS-CoV. As the interaction targets we used 23 domains of the largest PDZ proteins MUPP1/MPDZ and PATJ/INAD. Results revealed exceptional affinity and interaction promiscuity of MERS-CoV PDZ motif in vitro, suggesting an increased probability of potential PDZ targets in vivo. We hypothesize that together with its known ability to enter the cells from both apical and basolateral sites, this might further contribute to its elevated disruption of cellular PDZ pathways and higher virulence.
