Structural Features of the Peptide Homologous to 6-25 Fragment of Influenza A PB1 Protein

Abstract: A mirror-symmetry motif was discovered in the N-terminus of the influenza virus PB1 protein. Structure of peptide comprised of the corresponding part of PB1 (amino acid residues 6-25) was investigated by circular dichroism and in silico modeling. We found that peptide PB1 (6-25) in solution assumes beta-hairpin conformation. A truncated peptide PB1 (6-13), containing only half of the mirror-symmetry motif, appeared to stabilize the beta-structure of the original peptide and, at high concentrations, was capable… Show more

“…Peptides used as a model for the influenza A virus polymerase complex PB1 subunit N-terminal region: MDVNPTLLFLKVPAQNAISTTFPYT (PB1 ) and TLLFLKVPAQNAISTTFPYT (PB1 (6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)). The peptides tested were: TLLFLKVP (PB1 (6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)); TLLFLKVPA (PB1(6-13)-Ala); and FITClabeled TLLFLKVPA (FITC-PB1(6-13)-Ala).…”

“…At the first stage, the interaction between the PB1(6-13) peptide fibrils and the PB1 subunit N-terminal region was studied by the SANS method ( Figure 5). (6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13) in fibrillar form (black dots); and the normalized mathematical sum of the individual scattering curves for PB1 (6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25) and PB1(6-13) (red curve)…”

“…In some cases, short peptides are capable of not only facilitating the adoption of an amyloidogenic protein conformation in its parent protein, but also causing changes in the parent protein's functional secondary structures. For example, it has been shown that the antiviral activity of the PB1 (6-13) peptide of influenza virus PB1 protein affects the secondary structure of the N-terminal domain of the PB1 protein itself [ 32 , 33 ].…”

“…It is interesting to note that those peptides for the prion protein PrP [ 27 ], alpha-lactalbumin [ 28 , 29 ], and PB1 [ 32 ], all of which are capable of inducing a parent protein conformational transition, contain mirror-symmetrical motifs (MSMs) within their primary structures ( Figure 6 ) [ 34 ]. Mirror-symmetrical motif formation can arise due to amplification of repeats in DNA and have a role in the formation of the tertiary structure in proteins [ 35 ].…”
