摘要: The poliovirus polyprotein is cotranslationally linked to myristic acid at its amino-terminal glycine residue. We investigated the role of myristoylation in viral replication cycle by site-directed mutagenesis this codon. Synthetic full-length RNA transcripts carrying a Gly-to-Ala mutation (G4002A) gave no infectious virus on transfection into permissive cells (HeLa). However, mutant was replicated transfected cells, albeit reduced level. virus-specific polypeptide P1, precursor for capsid proteins, found HeLa with wild-type or RNA, but only P1 myristoylated; G4002A not myristoylated. also introduced an vitro transcription-translation vector encoding precursor. Processing poliovirus-infected cell lysate (providing 3Cpro and 3CDpro activities) severely inhibited, whereas normally inefficient cleavage purified affected. These results suggest that moiety may be required efficient processing 3CDpro. Images
