Paramyxovirus Sendai virus-like particle formation by expression of multiple viral proteins and acceleration of its release by C protein

Abstract: Envelope viruses maturate by macromolecule assembly and budding. To investigate these steps, we generated virus-like particles (VLPs) by co-expression of structural proteins of Sendai virus (SeV), a prototype of the family Paramyxoviridae. Simultaneous expression of matrix (M), nucleo- (N), fusion (F), and hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (HN) proteins resulted in the generation of VLPs that had morphology and density similar to those of authentic virus particles, although the efficiency of release from cells was s… Show more

“…We previously reported generation of VLPs with authentic density and size by simultaneous expression of SeV proteins F, HN, M, N and C in 293T cells (18). In the VLP generation system, 25% of the viral protein was released into the medium in mock treatment, whereas treatment with 10 ĀµM lactacystin and 10 ĀµM MG132 decreased VLP production to 8% and 4%, respectively (Fig.…”

“…The specific residues in C protein that mediate its association with Alix have not been determined, and the way in which SeV exploits Alix may be different from that used by EIAV because C protein is not essential for viral budding. Instead, it accelerates virion production (Sugahara et al, 2004), and this is enhanced by overexpression of Alix (Sakaguchi et al, 2005).…”

“…Expression of certain Ms in eukaryotic cells in the absence of other viral proteins can induce formation of virus-like particles (VLPs). The efficiency of VLP generation can be increased if the M is coexpressed with a viral glycoprotein (15)(16)(17)(18). Ms share a tendency to oligomerize, a feature likely to be important in the self-assembly and budding processes (19).…”
