• W2247866769 abstract "Rotavirus is the major cause of infantile gastroenteritis. Each year more than 600,000 young children are estimated to die in developing countries throughout the world. Rotavirus infection can be either symptomatic or asymptomatic. But the genetic or molecular basis for rotavirus virulence is not yet clearly understood. NSP4, encoded by genome segment 10, is a multifunctional protein. It is identified as the first viral enterotoxin and is essential for virus morphogenesis and pathogenesis. Analysis of NSP4 from more than 175 strains failed to reveal any sequence motif or amino acid that segregated with the virulence phenotype of the virus. Further, a few studies indicated a lack of consistent correlation between virus virulence and diarrhea inducing ability of the cognate NSP4. To understand the basis for the inconsistency in the enterotoxigenic activity of a few NSP4s reported in a limited number of studies, comparative analysis of the biophysical, biochemical, and biological properties of NSP4ΔN72, which from SA11 and Hg18 was earlier shown to be highly diarrheagenic, from 17 different symptomatic and asymptomatic strains was carried out. To study structure-function relationship we used Thioflavin T fluorescence assay, gel filtration, CD spectroscopy, trypsin susceptibility and enterotoxin assay in newborn mice for all the proteins. Detailed comparative analysis of biochemical and biophysical properties and diarrheagenic activity of the recombinant ΔN72 peptides under identical conditions revealed wide differences among themselves in their resistance to trypsin cleavage, thoflavin T binding, multimerization and conformation without any correlation with their diarrhea inducing abilities. Since earlier studies showed that a secreted peptide (ΔN112) of SA11-NSP4 also induced diarrhea in newborn mice pups, we have generated NSP4ΔN112 deletions from six different strains and tested for their diarrhea inducing ability. The patterns of DD50 values of the ΔN112 peptides was similar to that for ΔN72 peptides, but were 1000-1200-fold less efficient than that of SA11ΔN72. NSP4 exists in multiple forms in the infected cells- as oligomers, higher molecular weight complexes and ER- and cytoplasmic membrane anchored forms. Previous studies suggest that the N-terminal boundary of the oligomerization domain could lie downstream to residue 94 from the N-terminus. A peptide from residue 112-175, secreted from rotavirus infected cells, was reported to induce dose-dependent diarrhea in suckling mice, suggesting that the N-terminal boundary of the enterotoxin activity could lie around residue 112. However, the precise N-terminal boundaries in NSP4 for oligomerization and diarrhea induction have not been identified. To address this question, a large number of deletion mutants C-terminal to residue 94 were generated and tested for their ability to induce diarrhea in newborn mouse pups. Our data suggest that while the deletions ∆N121 to ∆N131 failed to induce diarrhea, ΔN118 was diarrheagenic suggesting that the N-terminal boundary of…" @default.
