A yellow fever (YFV) 17D virus variant, which causes persistent infection of mouse neuroblastoma cells associated with defective cell penetration and small plaque size, yielded plaque-revertant viruses from cells transfected with viral transcripts encoding the adaptive mutation (Gly360in the E protein). Reconstruction of a plaque-purified revertant which contained Gly360and additional substitutions (Asn for Lys303and Val for Ala261) yielded a virus whose infectious center size, growth efficiency, and cell penetration rate similar to the parental YF5.2iv virus, whereas viruses with Asn303or Val261alone with Gly360yielded either a small-plaque virus or a parental revertant. These data indicate that the YFV E protein is subject to suppression of mutations in domain III that are deleterious for viral entry and spread by a second-site mutation in domain II. Position 261 lies within the hydrophobic ligand-binding pocket at the domain I–II interface, a site believed to be involved in the hinge-like conformational change of domain II during activation of membrane fusion-activity. Results of this study provide genetic data consistent with findings on flavivirus structure and implicate domain III in functions beyond simply cell surface attachment.
