SARS-CoV-2 Nsp3 帕帕因样蛋白酶 (PLpro) 通过减少它们的无处不在性来稳定ER相关的降解基质. 这种跨膜蛋白还会分裂ER居住蛋白,影响脂质生物合成调节器.
科学领域:
- 病毒学 病毒学
- 分子生物学分子生物学
- 细胞生物学 细胞生物学
背景情况:
- 冠状病毒利用含有帕帕因类蛋白酶 (PLpro) 的大型非结构性蛋白质 (Nsp3) 进行聚蛋白加工.
- SARS-CoV PLpro 呈现出双化和脱化活性,并且局部存在于内质网膜 (ER).
研究的目的:
- 为了调查SARS-CoV-2 Nsp3 PLpro的二氧化活性是否影响ER相关降解 (ERAD) 基质.
- 为了确定SARS-CoV-2 Nsp3 PLpro对涉及脂质生物合成的特定ERAD基质的影响.
主要方法:
- 全长和截断的跨膜SARS-CoV-2 Nsp3与三个ERAD基质 (INSIG-1,SREBP-1,SREBP-2) 的同时表达.
- 分析蛋白质含量,无处不在状态和裂变部位.
- 位点定向突变发生,以调查特定裂变点和降解点的作用.
主要成果:
- 跨膜SARS-CoV-2 Nsp3 PLpro增加了INSIG-1水平并降低了其无处不在.
- 跨膜PLpro在多个部位分裂了SREBP-1,减少了它的前体.
- 跨膜PLpro在正规部位分离了SREBP-2,增加了其水平,即使在降解基因发生突变时也稳定了SREBP-2,与减少的无处不在相关.
结论:
- 定于ER的SARS-CoV-2 Nsp3 PLpro作为一个二化酶,稳定了ERAD基质.
- SARS-CoV-2 Nsp3 PLpro可以在规范和非规范位置分裂ER居民蛋白质,可能会影响超出已建立的共识序列的蛋白质稳定性和功能.

The Proteasome
In this pathway, the target proteins are first tagged with small proteins called ubiquitin. This involves participation of a series of enzymes including— E1 (ubiquitin-activating enzyme), E2 (ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme), and E3...
