Expression of tobacco mosaic virus coat protein and assembly of pseudovirus particles in Escherichia coli.

Abstract:

:The bidirectional self-assembly of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV, common or U1 strain) has been studied extensively in vitro. Foreign single-stranded RNA molecules containing the TMV origin-of-assembly sequence (OAS, 75-432 nt in length) are also packaged by TMV coat protein (CP) in vitro to form helical pseudovirus particles. To study virus assembly in vivo requires an easily manipulated model system, independent of replication in plants. The TMV assembly machinery also provides a convenient means to protect and recover chimeric gene transcripts of almost any length or sequence for a variety of applications. Native TMV CP expressed in and purified from Escherichia coli formed nonhelical, stacked aggregates after dialysis into pH 5 buffer and was inactive for in vitro assembly with TMV RNA. U1 CP derivatives in which the second amino acid was changed from Ser to Ala or Pro, nonacetylated N termini found in two natural strains of the virus, failed to remediate these anomalous properties. However, in vivo coexpression of CP and single-stranded RNAs (up to approximately 2 kb) containing the TMV OAS gave high yields of helical pseudovirus particles of the predicted length (up to 7.4 +/- 1.4 micrograms/mg of total bacterial protein). If the OAS-containing RNA was first recruited into bacterial polyribosomes, elongation of pseudovirus assembly was blocked. In vivo, E. coli expression of a full-length cDNA clone of the TMV genome (6.4 kb) resulted in high, immunodetectable levels of CP and assembly of sufficient intact genomic RNA to initiate systemic infection of susceptible tobacco plants.
