Hsp90 interacts specifically with viral RNA and differentially regulates replication initiation of Bamboo mosaic virus and associated satellite RNA.

ABSTRACT: Host factors play crucial roles in the replication of plus-strand RNA viruses. In this report, a heat shock protein 90 homologue of Nicotiana benthamiana, NbHsp90, was identified in association with partially purified replicase complexes from BaMV-infected tissue, and shown to specifically interact with the 3' untranslated region (3' UTR) of BaMV genomic RNA, but not with the 3' UTR of BaMV-associated satellite RNA (satBaMV RNA) or that of genomic RNA of other viruses, such as Potato virus X (PVX) or Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV). Mutational analyses revealed that the interaction occurs between the middle domain of NbHsp90 and domain E of the BaMV 3' UTR. The knockdown or inhibition of NbHsp90 suppressed BaMV infectivity, but not that of satBaMV RNA, PVX, or CMV in N. benthamiana. Time-course analysis further revealed that the inhibitory effect of 17-AAG is significant only during the immediate early stages of BaMV replication. Moreover, yeast two-hybrid and GST pull-down assays demonstrated the existence of an interaction between NbHsp90 and the BaMV RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. These results reveal a novel role for NbHsp90 in the selective enhancement of BaMV replication, most likely through direct interaction with the 3' UTR of BaMV RNA during the initiation of BaMV RNA replication.

Project description:Bamboo mosaic virus (BaMV), a member of the Potexvirus genus, has a monopartite positive-strand RNA genome on which five open reading frames (ORFs) are organized. ORF1 encodes a 155-kDa nonstructural protein (REPBaMV) that plays a core function in replication/transcription of the viral genome. To find out cellular factors modulating the replication efficiency of BaMV, a putative REPBaMV-associated protein complex from Nicotiana benthamiana leaf was isolated on an SDS-PAGE gel, and a few proteins preferentially associated with REPBaMV were identified by tandem mass spectrometry. Among them, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) was particularly noted. Overexpression of PCNA strongly suppressed the accumulation of BaMV coat protein and RNAs in leaf protoplasts. In addition, PCNA exhibited an inhibitory effect on BaMV polymerase activity. A pulldown assay confirmed a binding capability of PCNA toward BaMV genomic RNA. Mutations at D41 or F114 residues, which are critical for PCNA to function in nuclear DNA replication and repair, disabled PCNA from binding BaMV genomic RNA as well as suppressing BaMV replication. This suggests that PCNA bound to the viral RNA may interfere with the formation of a potent replication complex or block the replication process. Interestingly, BaMV is almost invisible in the newly emerging leaves where PCNA is actively expressed. Accordingly, PCNA is probably one of the factors restricting the proliferation of BaMV in young leaves. Foxtail mosaic virus and Potato virus X were also suppressed by PCNA in the protoplast experiment, suggesting a general inhibitory effect of PCNA on the replication of potexviruses.IMPORTANCE Knowing the dynamic interplay between plant RNA viruses and their host is a basic step toward first understanding how the viruses survive the plant defense mechanisms and second gaining knowledge of pathogenic control in the field. This study found that plant proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) imposes a strong inhibition on the replication of several potexviruses, including Bamboo mosaic virus, Foxtail mosaic virus, and Potato virus X Based on the tests on Bamboo mosaic virus, PCNA is able to bind the viral genomic RNA, and this binding is a prerequisite for the protein to suppress the virus replication. This study also suggests that PCNA plays an important role in restricting the proliferation of potexviruses in the rapidly dividing tissues of plants.
