项目摘要

Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is a non-pathogenic virus that shows great promise as a delivery vehicle or vector for gene therapy. The focus of our group has been a structure-function analysis of the AAV capsid. We have combined structural analysis (X-ray crystallography and cryo-EM) with mutagenic and biochemical analysis toward identifying regions of the capsid that are essential for infection. This has led to important information that has allowed the development of new vector production strategies and the promise of targeted vectors. We have used X-ray crystallography to identify regions of the AAV capsid that undergo a structural change when the capsid is subjected to acidic pHs and used circular dichroism (CD) to show that unique region of the minor capsid viral protein VP1 (VP1u), which contains a phospholipase A2 (PLA2) function, becomes unfolded under similar conditions. These pHs (pH 4-6) have been shown to be essential for productive AAV infections and are comparable to those that the capsid encounters in endosomal compartments during cell entry and trafficking. Our studies led to two unexpected novel discoveries. The first is that the capsid has a previously unknown enzymatic activity: a pH sensitive protease that can catalyze autolytic cleavage of the capsid as well as external substrates. Both the mechanism of the protease activity and its function are unknown and appear to be unique compared to other virus encoded proteases. The second is that mutations in the pH sensitive region of the capsid have a profound effect on gene expression, even after the viral DNA is uncoated in the nucleus, suggesting that the capsid plays a role in gene expression after DNA uncoating in the nucleus. Furthermore, the CD studies suggested a mechanism for the externalization of the VP1u which is normally buried in the capsid interior but is extruded during trafficking through acidic endosomal compartments. In this proposal, we wish to explore these novel findings by (1) identifying the active site of the protease(s) as well as its cleavage targets; (2) determining the role of the pH sensitive capsid region in gene expression after nuclear uncoating; and (3) examining the effect of pH and cations on the other enzymatic activity in the capsid, the VP1u associated PLA2.
