Our previous study has shown that the Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV)p48(ac103) gene is essential for the nuclear egress of nucleocapsids and the formation of occlusion-derived virions (ODVs). However, the exact role ofp48in the morphogenesis of ODVs remains unknown. In this study, we demonstrated thatp48was required for the efficient formation of intranuclear microvesicles. To further understand its functional role in intranuclear microvesicle formation, we characterized the distribution of the P48 protein, which was found to be associated with the nucleocapsid and envelope fractions of both budded virions and ODVs. In AcMNPV-infected cells, P48 was predominantly localized to nucleocapsids in the virogenic stroma and the nucleocapsids enveloped in ODVs, with a limited but discernible distribution in the plasma membrane, nuclear envelope, intranuclear microvesicles, and ODV envelope. Furthermore, coimmunoprecipitation assays showed that among the viral proteins required for intranuclear microvesicle formation, P48 associated with Ac93 in the absence of viral infection.
