  • The stem-loop binding protein CDL-1 is required for chromosome condensation, progression of cell death and morphogenesis in Caenorhabditis elegans. 11782412

    Histones play important roles not only in the structural changes of chromatin but also in regulating gene expression. Expression of histones is partly regulated post-transcriptionally by the stem-loop binding protein (SLBP)/hairpin binding protein (HBP). We report the developmental function of CDL-1, the C. elegans homologue of SLBP/HBP. In the C. elegans cdl-1 mutants, cell corpses resulting from programmed cell death appear later and persist much longer than those in the wild type. They also exhibit distinct morphological defects in body elongation and movement of the pharyngeal cells toward the buccal opening. The CDL-1 protein binds to the stem-loop structures in the 3'-UTR of C. elegans core histone mRNAs, and the mutant forms of this protein show reduced binding activities. A decrease in the amount of core histone proteins phenocopied the cdl-1 mutant embryos, suggesting that CDL-1 contributes to the proper expression of core histone proteins. We propose that loss-of-function of cdl-1 causes aberrant chromatin structure, which affects the cell cycle and cell death, as well as transcription of genes essential for morphogenesis.

  • Multiple amino acid changes at the first glycosylation motif in NS1 protein of West Nile virus are necessary for complete attenuation for mouse neuroinvasiveness. 21945257

    West Nile virus (WNV), like all members of the Japanese encephalitis (JE) serogroup except JE virus, contains three N-linked glycosylation (N-X-S/T) sites in the NS1 protein at asparagine residues NS1(130), NS1(175) and NS1(207). Previously we showed that the ablation of these glycosylation sites in WNV, by substitution of asparagine for alanine, attenuated mouse neuroinvasiveness; however, full attenuation was not achieved and the virus retained a neurovirulence phenotype. Sequence of viral RNA extracted from mouse brains revealed a reversion at the NS1(130) site in some mice that succumbed to the attenuated NS1(130A/175A/207A) strain. Here, we further attenuated WNV by mutating the asparagine to serine or glutamine in addition to mutating other residues in the NS1(130-132) glycosylation motif. These mutants proved to further attenuate WNV for both neuroinvasiveness and neurovirulence in mice. NS1(130-132QQA/175A/207A), the most attenuated mutant virus, showed modest changes in infectivity titers versus the parental strain, was not temperature sensitive, and did not show reversion in mice. Mutant virus was completely attenuated for neuroinvasiveness after intraperitoneal inoculation with >1,000,000 PFU, and mice were protected against lethal challenge. Overall, we showed that changing the asparagine of the NS1(130) glycosylation motif to a serine or glutamine attenuated WNV further than the asparagine to alanine substitution. Further, mutating all three of the amino acids of the NS1(130-132) glycosylation motif (NTT-QQA) along with NS1(175) and NS1(207) asparagine to alanine mutations gave the most stable and attenuated strain.
