The N-Terminal of Aquareovirus NS80 Is Required for Interacting with Viral Proteins and Viral Replication.

ABSTRACT: Reovirus replication and assembly occurs within viral inclusion bodies that formed in specific intracellular compartments of cytoplasm in infected cells. Previous study indicated that aquareovirus NS80 is able to form inclusion bodies, and also can retain viral proteins within its inclusions. To better understand how NS80 performed in viral replication and assembly, the functional regions of NS80 associated with other viral proteins in aquareovirus replication were investigated in this study. Deletion mutational analysis and rotavirus NSP5-based protein association platform were used to detect association regions. Immunofluorescence images indicated that different N-terminal regions of NS80 could associate with viral proteins VP1, VP4, VP6 and NS38. Further co-immunoprecipitation analysis confirmed the interaction between VP1, VP4, VP6 or NS38 with different regions covering the N-terminal amino acid (aa, 1-471) of NS80, respectively. Moreover, removal of NS80 N-terminal sequences required for interaction with proteins VP1, VP4, VP6 or NS38 not only prevented the capacity of NS80 to support viral replication in NS80 shRNA-based replication complementation assays, but also inhibited the expression of aquareovirus proteins, suggesting that N-terminal regions of NS80 are necessary for viral replication. These results provided a foundational basis for further understanding the role of NS80 in viral replication and assembly during aquareovirus infection.

Project description:Temperature dependency of viral diseases in ectotherms has been an important scientific issue for decades, while the molecular mechanism behind this phenomenon remains largely mysterious. In this study, deploying infection with grass carp reovirus (GCRV), a double-stranded RNA aquareovirus, as a model system, we demonstrated that the cross talk between HSP70 and outer capsid protein VP7 of GCRV determines temperature-dependent viral entry. Multitranscriptomic analysis identified HSP70 as a key player in the temperature-dependent pathogenesis of GCRV infection. Further biochemical, small interfering RNA (siRNA) knockdown, pharmacological inhibition, and microscopic approaches revealed that the primary plasma membrane-anchored HSP70 interacts with VP7 to facilitate viral entry during the early phase of GCRV infection. Moreover, VP7 functions as a key coordinator protein to interact with multiple housekeeping proteins and regulate receptor gene expression, concomitantly facilitating viral entry. This work illuminates a previously unidentified immune evasion mechanism by which an aquatic virus hijacks heat shock response-related proteins to enhance viral entry, pinpointing targeted preventives and therapeutics for aquatic viral diseases. IMPORTANCE The seasonality of viral diseases in ectotherms is a prevailing phenomenon in the aquatic environment, which causes huge economic losses every year worldwide and hinders sustainable development of the aquaculture industry. Nevertheless, our understanding of the molecular mechanism of how temperature determines the pathogenesis of aquatic viruses remains largely unexplored. In this study, by deploying grass carp reovirus (GCRV) infection as a model system, we demonstrated that temperature-dependent, primarily membrane-localized HSP70 interacts with major outer capsid protein VP7 of GCRV to bridge the virus-host interaction, reshape the host's behaviors, and concomitantly facilitate viral entry. Our work unveils a central role of HSP70 in the temperature-dependent pathogenesis of aquatic viruses and provides a theoretical basis for the formulation of prevention and control strategies for aquatic viral diseases.
