摘要: 为探究猪繁殖与呼吸综合征病毒(porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus,PRRSV)的N蛋白磷酸化修饰是否对病毒的复制及亚基因组的转录产生影响,将XH-GD PRRSV N蛋白的已知磷酸化位点Ser-105和Ser-120分别或同时突变为Ala,拯救突变病毒,命名为A105、A120、A105-120,测定其生长曲线和亚基因组的转录水平。结果显示:突变病毒在MARC-145的病毒复制速率与滴度显著低于亲本毒株(P<0.01或P<0.05),而在原代PAMs复制速率降低(P<0.01),不影响病毒最终的滴度。突变毒株的基因组RNA(genomic RNA,gRNA)转录水平显著降低(P<0.01或P<0.05),磷酸化位点突变能显著降低长链亚基因组mRNA(subgenomic RNA,sgmRNA)2、3的转录(P<0.01或P<0.05),但短链sgmRNA4、5表达量随时间呈增加趋势。以gRNA表达量为基准对各亚基因组表达量进行整体分析,发现N蛋白磷酸化显著影响了sgmRNA4和sgmRNA5的表达(P<0.01或P<0.05)。结果提示,N蛋白磷酸化位点突变影响PRRSV的复制及亚基因组转录。

Abstract: To explore whether the N-protein phosphorylation of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) affects viral replication, the ser-105 and ser-120 of the PRRSV N-protein were mutated into alanine alone or simultaneously. The rescued viruses were named as A105, A120 and A105-120, and their growth curve and subgenomic transcription level were determined respectively. The viral replication rate and titer of the mutant virus in MARC-145 were significantly lower than that of parental strain PRRSV XH-GD (P<0.01 or P<0.05). While in the primary PAM cells, the replication rate of the mutant virus decreased (P<0.01), but the final virus titer was not affected. The genomic (g) RNA transcription level of the mutant virulence group was significantly decreased (P<0.01 or P<0.05), and the phosphorylation site mutation significantly reduced the transcription of the longer subgenomic mRNA (sgmRNA)2/3 (P<0.01 or P<0.05), but increased the expression levels of the shorter sgmRNA 4/5 with time. Based on the gRNA expression level, the expression of sgmRNAs expression was analyzed. Our current work showed that the N-protein phosphorylation significantly affects the expression of sgmRNA4/5(P<0.01 or P<0.05). Mutation of N protein phosphorylation site affects PRRSV replication and subgenomic transcription.
