- W4385953251 abstract "Abstract During the HIV-1 assembly process, the Gag polyprotein multimerizes at the producer cell plasma membrane, resulting in the formation of spherical immature virus particles. Gag-gRNA interactions play a crucial role in the multimerization process, which is yet to be fully understood. We have performed large-scale all-atom molecular dynamics simulations of membrane-bound full-length Gag dimer, hexamer, and 18-mer. The inter-domain dynamic correlation of Gag, quantified by the heterogeneous elastic network model (hENM) applied to the simulated trajectories, is observed to be altered by implicit gRNA binding, as well as the multimerization state of the Gag. The lateral dynamics of our simulated membrane-bound Gag proteins, with and without gRNA binding, agree with prior experimental data and help to validate our simulation models and methods. The gRNA binding is observed to impact mainly the SP1 domain of the 18-mer and the MA-CA linker domain of the hexamer. In the absence of gRNA binding, the independent dynamical motion of the NC domain results in a collapsed state of the dimeric Gag. Unlike stable SP1 helices in the six-helix bundle, without IP6 binding, the SP1 domain undergoes a spontaneous helix-to-coil transition in the dimeric Gag. Together, our findings reveal conformational switches of Gag at different stages of the multimerization process and predict that the gRNA binding reinforces an efficient binding surface of Gag for multimerization, as well as regulates the dynamic organization of the local membrane region itself. Significance Gag(Pr 55 Gag ) polyprotein orchestrates many essential events in HIV-1 assembly, including packaging of the genomic RNA (gRNA) in the immature virion. Although various experimental techniques, such as cryo-ET, X-ray, and NMR, have revealed structural properties of individual domains in the immature Gag clusters, structural and biophysical characterization of a full-length Gag molecule remains a challenge for existing experimental techniques. Using atomistic molecular dynamics simulations of the different model systems of Gag polyprotein, we present here a detailed structural characterization of Gag molecules in different multimerization states and interrogate the synergy between Gag-Gag, Gag-membrane, and Gag-gRNA interactions during the viral assembly process." @default.
