Structure of Epstein-Barr Virus Tegument Protein Complex BBRF2-BSRF1 Reveals Its Potential Role in Viral Envelopment ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-020-19259-x OPEN Structure of Epstein-Barr virus tegument protein complex BBRF2-BSRF1 reveals its potential role in viral envelopment Hui-Ping He1,4, Meng Luo1,4, Yu-Lu Cao 1, Yu-Xin Lin1, Hua Zhang1, Xiao Zhang1, Jun-Ying Ou1, Bing Yu1, ✉ Xiaoxue Chen 2, Miao Xu1, Lin Feng 1, Mu-Sheng Zeng 1, Yi-Xin Zeng 1 & Song Gao 1,3 γ 1234567890():,; Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a -herpesvirus associated with the occurrence of several human malignancies. BBRF2 and BSRF1 are two EBV tegument proteins that have been suggested to form a hetero-complex and mediate viral envelopment, but the molecular basis of their interaction and the functional mechanism of this complex remains unknown. Here, we pre- sent crystal structures of BBRF2 alone and in complex with BSRF1. BBRF2 has a compact globular architecture featuring a central β-sheet that is surrounded by 10 helices, it represents a novel fold distinct from other known protein structures. The central portion of BSRF1 folds into two tightly associated antiparallel α-helices, forming a composite four-helix bundle with two α-helices from BBRF2 via a massive hydrophobic network. In vitro, a BSRF1-derived peptide binds to BBRF2 and reduces the number of viral genome copies in EBV-positive cells. Exogenous BBRF2 and BSRF1 co-localize at the Golgi apparatus. Furthermore, BBRF2 binds capsid and capsid-associated proteins, whereas BSRF1 associates with glycoproteins. These findings indicate that the BBRF2-BSRF1 complex tethers EBV nucleocapsids to the glycoprotein-enriched Golgi membrane, facilitating secondary envelopment. 1 State Key Laboratory of Oncology in South China, Collaborative Innovation Center for Cancer Medicine, Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center, 510060 Guangzhou, China. 2 Molecular Imaging Center, Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Biomedical Imaging, the Fifth Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University, 519000 Zhuhai, China. 3 Guangzhou Regenerative Medicine and Health Guangdong Laboratory, 510530 Guangzhou, China. 4These authors ✉ contributed equally: Hui-Ping He, Meng Luo. email: [email protected] NATURE COMMUNICATIONS | (2020) 11:5405 | https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-020-19259-x | www.nature.com/naturecommunications 1 ARTICLE NATURE COMMUNICATIONS | https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-020-19259-x pstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a double-stranded DNA virus In herpesviruses, the space between the nucleocapsid and the Ethat is carried by ~95% of the human population.

  • HSV-1 Tegument Protein and the Development of Its Genome Editing Technology Xingli Xu, Yanchun Che and Qihan Li*
    Xu et al. Virology Journal (2016) 13:108 DOI 10.1186/s12985-016-0563-x REVIEW Open Access HSV-1 tegument protein and the development of its genome editing technology Xingli Xu, Yanchun Che and Qihan Li* Abstract Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) is composed of complex structures primarily characterized by four elements: the nucleus, capsid, tegument and envelope. The tegument is an important viral component mainly distributed in the spaces between the capsid and the envelope. The development of viral genome editing technologies, such as the identification of temperature-sensitive mutations, homologous recombination, bacterial artificial chromosome, and the CRISPR/Cas9 system, has been shown to largely contribute to the rapid promotion of studies on the HSV-1 tegument protein. Many researches have demonstrated that tegument proteins play crucial roles in viral gene regulatory transcription, viral replication and virulence, viral assembly and even the interaction of the virus with the host immune system. This article briefly reviews the recent research on the functions of tegument proteins and specifically elucidates the function of tegument proteins in viral infection, and then emphasizes the significance of using genome editing technology in studies of providing new techniques and insights into further studies of HSV-1 infection in the future.

Hogue* Center for Immunotherapy, Vaccines, and Virotherapy, Biodesign Institute and School of Life Sciences, Arizona State University, Tempe, AZ 85287, USA *[email protected] DOI: https://doi.org/10.21775/cimb.042.551 Abstract Alphaherpesvirus tegument assembly, secondary envelopment, and exocytosis processes are understood in broad strokes, but many of the individual steps in this pathway, and their molecular and cell biological details, remain unclear. Viral tegument and membrane proteins form an extensive and robust protein interaction network, such that essentially any structural protein can be deleted, yet particles are still assembled, enveloped, and released from infected cells. We conceptually divide the tegument proteins into three groups: conserved inner and outer teguments that participate in nucleocapsid and membrane contacts, respectively; and "middle" tegument proteins, consisting of some of the most abundant tegument proteins that serve as central hubs in the protein interaction network, yet which are unique to the alphaherpesviruses. We then discuss secondary envelopment, reviewing the tegument-membrane contacts and cellular factors that drive this process. We place this viral process in the context of cell biological processes, including the endocytic pathway, ESCRT machinery, autophagy, secretory pathway, intracellular transport, and exocytosis mechanisms. Finally, we speculate about potential relationships between caister.com/cimb 551 Curr. Issues Mol. Biol.

One model proposes that envelopment, “de-envelopment” and “re-envelopment” are essential steps for production of infectious virus. version 1 Glycoproteins gB/gH were reported to be essential for de-envelopment, by published report report fusion of the “primary” envelope with the outer nuclear membrane. Yet, a high 05 Oct 2017 proportion of enveloped virions generated from genomes with deleted gB/gH were found in the cytoplasm and extracellular space, suggesting the existence 1 Charles Grose, University of Iowa, USA of an alternative exit route.

Brasil 4365, 21045-900 Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brasil The tegument of the adult form of Prosorhynchoides arcuatus (Linton, 1900) (Trematoda, Bucephalidae) from the intestine of Pomatomus saltator (L.) from the Atlantic coast of the State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil was studied by transmission electron microscopy. The tegument consists of two layers: an external, constituted by a syncytium, containing spines, unicilliated papillae, inclusion bodies and mitochondria and an internal, consisting of a muscular layer and mononucleated tegumental cells.
