A role for caveolin 1 in assembly and budding of the paramyxovirus parainfluenza virus 5.

ABSTRACT: Caveolin 1 (Cav-1) is an integral membrane protein that forms the coat structure of plasma membrane caveolae and regulates caveola-dependent functions. Caveolae are enriched in cholesterol and sphingolipids and are related to lipid rafts. Many studies implicate rafts as sites of assembly and budding of enveloped virus. We show that Cav-1 colocalizes with the paramyxovirus parainfluenza virus 5 (PIV-5) nucleocapsid (NP), matrix (M), and hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (HN) proteins. Moreover, electron microscopy shows that Cav-1 is clustered at sites of viral budding. HN, M, and F(1)/F(2) are associated with detergent-resistant membranes, and these proteins float on sucrose gradients with Cav-1-rich fractions. A complex containing Cav-1 with M, NP, and HN from virus-infected cells and a complex containing Cav-1 and M from M-transfected cells were found on coimmunoprecipitation. A role of Cav-1 in the PIV-5 life cycle was investigated by utilizing MCF-7 human breast cancer cells that stably express Cav-1 (MCF-7/Cav-1). PIV-5 entry into MCF-7 and MCF-7/Cav-1 was found to be Cav-1 independent. However, the interaction between HN and M proteins was dramatically reduced in the Cav-1 null MCF-7 cells, and PIV-5 grown in MCF-7 cells had a reduced infectivity. Similarly, when PIV-5 was grown in MDCK cells that stably expressed dominant negative Cav-1 (MDCK/P132LCav-1), the virus showed a reduced infectivity. Virions lacking Cav-1 were defective and contained high levels of host cellular proteins and reduced levels of HN and M. These data suggest that Cav-1 affects assembly and/or budding, and this is supported by the finding that Cav-1 is incorporated into mature viral particles.

Project description:Parainfluenza virus 5 (PIV5) belongs to the family Paramyxoviridae, which consists of enveloped viruses with a nonsegmented negative-strand RNA genome encapsidated by the nucleoprotein (N). Paramyxovirus replication is regulated by the phosphoprotein (P) through protein-protein interactions with N and the RNA polymerase (L). The chaperone activity of P is essential to maintain the unassembled RNA-free form of N in order to prevent nonspecific RNA binding and premature N oligomerization. Here, we determined the crystal structure of unassembled PIV5 N in complex with a P peptide (N0P) derived from the N terminus of P (P50) at 2.65 Å. The PIV5 N0P consists of two domains: an N-terminal domain (NTD) and a C-terminal domain (CTD) separated by a hinge region. The cleft at the hinge region of RNA-bound PIV5 N was previously shown to be an RNA binding site. The N0P structure shows that the P peptide binds to the CTD of N and extends toward the RNA binding site to inhibit N oligomerization and, hence, RNA binding. Binding of P peptide also keeps the PIV5 N in the open form. A molecular dynamics (MD) analysis of both the open and closed forms of N shows the flexibility of the CTD and the preference of the N protein to be in an open conformation. The gradual opening of the hinge region, to release the RNA, was also observed. Together, these results advance our knowledge of the conformational swapping of N required for the highly regulated paramyxovirus replication.IMPORTANCE Paramyxovirus replication is regulated by the interaction of P with N and L proteins. Here, we report the crystal structure of unassembled parainfluenza virus 5 (PIV5) N chaperoned with P peptide. Our results provide a detailed understanding of the binding of P to N. The conformational switching of N between closed and open forms during its initial interaction with P, as well as during RNA release, was analyzed. Our data also show the plasticity of the CTD and the importance of domain movement for conformational switching. The results improve our understanding of the mechanism of interchanging N conformations for RNA replication and release.
