In vitro expression and analysis of secreted fowlpox virus CC chemokine-like proteins Fpv060, Fpv061, Fpv116 and Fpv121

Abstract: The four CC chemokine-like proteins (Fpv060, Fpv061, Fpv116 and Fpv121) of fowlpox virus (FWPV) were over-expressed as His-tagged versions from a T7 promoter/EMCV IRES construct in vitro, by coupled transcription/translation, or in cell culture, by co-infection with two recombinant FWPVs (one expressing the chemokine-like protein and one expressing T7 RNA polymerase). All, except Fpv116, appeared to be glycosylated in the presence of microsomal membranes in vitro. In culture, all were secreted (even though sec… Show more

“…These include, for example, ankyrin repeat proteins, C-type lectins, immunoglobulin domain genes, and members of the N1R/p28 family (24). Furthermore, FP9 still possesses IFN-␥-binding (37) and putative interleukin 18-binding proteins, as well as chemokine-like proteins (21). The interpretation is hindered by incomplete understanding of the avian immune system, quite apart from the more complex question of the function of avian viral immunomodulators in a xenologous host.…”

“…The avipoxviruses also encode multiple chemokinelike molecules (e.g., fpv060, fpv061, fpv116, fpv121). These appear to be secreted, although as yet no biochemical activity [194] has been attributed to any of them, partly because of the lack of identified chicken chemokine and chemokine receptor reagents [198]. It is therefore unclear whether they behave as agonists or antagonists and whether they target bona fide chemokine receptors or similar receptors for other host ligands.…”
