Isolation of Tobacco Mosaic Virus-Binding Peptides for Biotechnology Applications.

ABSTRACT: Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) was the first virus to be discovered and it is now widely used as a tool for biological research and biotechnology applications. TMV particles can be decorated with functional molecules by genetic engineering or bioconjugation. However, this can destabilize the nanoparticles, and/or multiple rounds of modification may be necessary, reducing product yields and preventing the display of certain cargo molecules. To overcome these challenges, we used phage display technology and biopanning to isolate a TMV-binding peptide (TBP_T25 ) with strong binding properties (IC₅₀ =0.73 μM, K_D =0.16 μM), allowing the display of model cargos via a single mixing step. The TMV-binding peptide is specific for TMV but does not recognize free coat proteins and can therefore be used to decorate intact TMV or detect intact TMV particles in crude plant sap.

Isolation of Cowpea Mosaic Virus-Binding Peptides.

Project description:The plant virus cowpea mosaic virus (CPMV) is a natural nanocarrier that has been developed as a platform technology for the delivery of various payloads including peptide epitopes for vaccines, contrast agents for imaging, and drugs for therapy. Genetic fusion and chemical conjugations are the mainstay approaches to load the active ingredient to the exterior and/or interior of CPMV. However, these methods have limitations; genetic engineering is limited to biologics, and chemical alteration often requires multistep reactions with modification of both CPMV and the active ingredient. Either method can also result in particle instability. Therefore, to provide an alternate path toward CPMV functionalization, we report the isolation of peptides that specifically bind to CPMV, termed CPMV-binding peptides (CBP). We used a commercial M13 phage display 7-mer peptide library to pan for and select peptides that selectively bind to CPMV. Biopanning and characterization of lead candidates resulted in isolation of the motif "GWRVSEF/L" as the CPMV-specific motif with phenylalanine (F) at the seventh position being stronger than leucine (L). Specificity to CPMV was demonstrated, and cross-reactivity toward other plant viruses was not observed. To demonstrate cargo loading, GWRVSEF was tagged with biotin, fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), and a human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-specific targeting peptide ligand. Display of the active ingredient was confirmed, and utility of tagged and targeted CPMV in cell binding assays was demonstrated. The CBP functionalization strategy offers a new avenue for CPMV nanoparticle functionalization and should offer a versatile tool to add active ingredients that otherwise may be difficult to conjugate or display.

Cancer Theranostic Applications of Albumin-Coated Tobacco Mosaic Virus Nanoparticles.

Project description:Nanotechnology holds great promise in cancer drug delivery, and of particular interest are theranostic approaches in which drug delivery and imaging are integrated. In this work, we studied and developed the plant virus tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) as a platform nanotechnology for drug delivery and imaging. Specifically, a serum albumin (SA)-coated TMV formulation was produced. The SA coating fulfils two functions: SA provides a stealth coating for enhanced biocompatibility; it also acts as a targeting ligand enabling efficient tumor accumulation of SA-TMV versus TMV in mouse models of breast and prostate cancer. We demonstrate drug delivery of the chemotherapy doxorubicin (DOX); TMV-delivered DOX outperformed free DOX, resulting in significant delayed tumor growth and increased survival. Furthermore, we demonstrated the ability of SA-coated TMV loaded with chelated Gd(DOTA) for magnetic resonance imaging detection of tumors. In the future, we envision the application of such probes as theranostic, where first imaging is performed to assess whether the nanoparticles are effective at targeting a particular patient tumor. If targeting is confirmed, the therapeutic would be added and treatment can begin. The combination of imaging and therapy would allow to monitor disease progression and therefore inform about the effectiveness of the drug delivery approach.

Isolation and characterization of a tobacco mosaic virus-inducible myb oncogene homolog from tobacco.

Project description:Salicylic acid (SA) plays an important role in signaling the activation of plant defense responses against pathogen attack including induction of pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins. To gain further insight into the SA-mediated signal transduction pathway, we have isolated and characterized a tobacco mosaic virus (TMV)-inducible myb oncogene homolog (myb1) from tobacco. The myb1 gene was induced upon TMV infection during both the hypersensitive response and development of systemic acquired resistance in the resistant tobacco cultivar following the rise of endogenous SA, but was not activated in the susceptible cultivar that fails to accumulate SA. The myb1 gene was also induced by incompatible bacterial pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae during the hypersensitive response. Exogenous SA treatment rapidly (within 15 min) activated the expression of myb1 in both resistant and susceptible tobacco cultivars with the subsequent induction of PR genes occurring several hours later. Biologically active analogs of SA and 2,6-dichloroisonicotinic acid (a synthetic functional analog of SA), which induce PR genes and enhanced resistance, also activated the myb1 gene. In contrast, biologically inactive analogs were poor inducers of myb1 gene expression. Furthermore, the recombinant Myb1 protein was shown to specifically bind to a Myb-binding consensus sequence found in the promoter of the PR-1a gene. Taken together, these results suggest that the tobacco myb1 gene encodes a signaling component down-stream of SA that may participate in transcriptional activation of PR genes and plant disease resistance.

Functionalized Tobacco Mosaic Virus Coat Protein Monomers and Oligomers as Nanocarriers for Anti-Cancer Peptides.

Project description:Components with self-assembly properties derived from plant viruses provide the opportunity to design biological nanoscaffolds for the ordered display of agents of diverse nature and with complementing functions. With the aim of designing a functionalized nanoscaffold to target cancer, the coat protein (CP) of Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) was tested as nanocarrier for an insoluble, highly hydrophobic peptide that targets the transmembrane domain of the Neuropilin-1 (NRP1) receptor in cancer cells. The resulting construct CPL-K (CP-linker-"Kill") binds to NRP1 in cancer cells and disrupts NRP1 complex formation with PlexA1 as well as downstream Akt survival signaling. The application of CPL-K also inhibits angiogenesis and cell migration. CP was also fused to a peptide that targets the extracellular domain of NRP1 and this fusion protein (CPL-F, CP-Linker-"Find") is shown to bind to cultured cancer cells and to inhibit NRP1-dependent angiogenesis as well. CPL-K and CPL-F maintain their anti-angiogenic properties upon co-assembly to oligomers/nanoparticles together with CPL. The observations show that the CP of TMV can be employed to generate a functionalized nanoparticle with biological activity. Remarkably, fusion to CPL allowed us to solubilize the highly insoluble transmembrane NRP1 peptide and to retain its anti-angiogenic effect.

Multivalent Display of ApoAI Peptides on the Surface of Tobacco Mosaic Virus Nanotubes Improves Cholesterol Efflux.

Project description:Atherosclerosis is a progressive cardiovascular disease in which cholesterol-rich plaques build up within arteries, increasing the risk of thrombosis, myocardial infarction, and stroke. One promising therapeutic approach is the use of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) biomimetic formulations based on ApoAI peptides that promote cholesterol efflux from plaques, ultimately leading to cholesterol excretion. Here, we describe the multivalent display of ApoAI peptides on the surface of protein nanotubes derived from the plant virus tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) and protein nanoparticles using virus-like particles from bacteriophage Qβ. Bioconjugation yielded ApoAI conjugates varying in size and morphology. We tested ABCA1-mediated cholesterol efflux using macrophage foam cells, the mitigation of reactive oxygen species in endothelial cells, and wound healing in endothelial cells. We found that the multivalent ApoAI platform, in particular the TMV-based nanotube, significantly improved the efficacy of cholesterol efflux compared to free peptides, Qβ nanoparticle formulations, and traditional HDL therapy. Finally, to better understand the mechanistic basis of enhanced cholesterol efflux, we used confocal microscopy to show that while native TMV was taken up by cells, TMV-ApoAI remained at the exterior of foam cell membranes and efflux was documented using fluorescent cholesterol. Together, these data highlight that high aspect ratio materials with multivalent display of ApoAI peptides offer unique capabilities promoting efficient cholesterol efflux and may find applications in cardiovascular therapy.

Identification of efficient prokaryotic cell-penetrating peptides with applications in bacterial biotechnology.

Project description:In bacterial biotechnology, instead of producing functional proteins from plasmids, it is often necessary to deliver functional proteins directly into live cells for genetic manipulation or physiological modification. We constructed a library of cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) capable of delivering protein cargo into bacteria and developed an efficient delivery method for CPP-conjugated proteins. We screened the library for highly efficient CPPs with no significant cytotoxicity in Escherichia coli and developed a model for predicting the penetration efficiency of a query peptide, enabling the design of new and efficient CPPs. As a proof-of-concept, we used the CPPs for plasmid curing in E. coli and marker gene excision in Methylomonas sp. DH-1. In summary, we demonstrated the utility of CPPs in bacterial engineering. The use of CPPs would facilitate bacterial biotechnology such as genetic engineering, synthetic biology, metabolic engineering, and physiology studies.

Response of tomato leaves to tobacco mosaic virus (TMV)

Project description:TMV-resistant (N), -susceptible (n), and enhanced susceptible mutant sun1-1 (N) tomato were grown in asceptic conditions in growth chambers (25º, 16hr/8hr light dark). 4-5 week old tomato were treated with TMV leaf sap or mock leaf sap, and leaf tissue was collected after 3, 9, and 27 hours. RNA was isolated from each sample (leaf tissue from one plant/one treatment/one timepoint), using standard TIGR protocols, and 25ug of total RNA was labeled using TIGR indirect labeling protocols. The experiment was repeated three times. Keywords: Direct comparison

Binding studies between cytosinpeptidemycin and the superfamily 1 helicase protein of tobacco mosaic virus.

Project description:Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) helicases play important roles in viral multiplication and interactions with host organisms. They can also be targeted by antiviral agents. Cytosinpeptidemycin has a good control effect against TMV. However, the mechanism of action is unclear. In this study, we expressed and purified TMV superfamily 1 helicase (TMV-Hel) and analyzed its three-dimensional structure. Furthermore, the binding interactions of TMV-Hel and cytosinpeptidemycin were studied. Microscale thermophoresis and isothermal titration calorimetry experiments showed that cytosinpeptidemycin bound to TMV-Hel with a dissociation constant of 0.24-0.44 μM. Docking studies provided further insights into the interaction of cytosinpeptidemycin with the His375 of TMV-Hel. Mutational and Microscale thermophoresis analyses showed that cytosinpeptidemycin bound to a TMV-Hel mutant (H375A) with a dissociation constant of 14.5 μM. Thus, His375 may be the important binding site for cytosinpeptidemycin. The data are important for designing and synthesizing new effective antiphytoviral agents.
