Structure and orientation of expressed bovine coronavirus hemagglutinin-esterase protein

Abstract: The sequence of the hemagglutinin-esterase (HE) gene for the Mebus strain of bovine coronavirus was obtained from cDNA clones, and its deduced product is a 47,700-kilodalton apoprotein of 424 amino acids. Expression of the HE protein in vitro in the presence of microsomes revealed N-terminal signal peptide cleavage and C-terminal anchorage but not disulfide-linked dimerization. Dimerization was observed only after expression in vivo, during which HE was also transported to the cell surface.

“…The HE gene encodes a type I membrane protein of 424-439 residues that contains a cleavable signal peptide at its amino terminus (Hogue et al, 1989;Kienzle et al, 1990) and a transmembrane domain close to its carboxy terminus, leaving a short cytoplasmic tail of about 10 residues (Fig. 4).…”

“…However, influenza C virus, toroviruses, and coronaviruses may well have acquired their HE sequences independently, not from each other but from yet another source (Cornelissen et al, 1997). The HE protein becomes cotranslationally N-glycosylated when expressed in cells, giving rise to a polypeptide of approximately 60-65 kDa that rapidly forms disulfide-linked dimers (Hogue et al, 1989;Kienzle et al, 1990;King et al, 1985;Parker et al, 1989;Yokomori et al, 1989;Yoo et al, 1992). The HE dimers (or a higher order structure thereof) become incorporated into virions, while a proportion is transported to the cell surface (Kienzle et al, 1990;Pfleiderer et al, 1991).…”

“…3a can also interact specifically with M and E, which are two key players in the viral assembly of coronaviruses, as well as with the S protein (Tan et al, 2004c;Zeng et al, 2004b); hence it may also be important for viral assembly and/or release of virus from infected cells. It is tempting to postulate that 3a is a novel structural protein as only the coronavirus structural proteins, S, hemagglutinin-esterase (HE) and E, have been shown to be transported to the plasma membrane/cell surface (Kienzle et al, 1990;Parker et al, 1990;Smith et al, 1990;Vennema et al, 1990). Indeed, Zeng et al (2004b) could detect disulfide-linked complexes of S and 3a in the medium of SARS-CoV infected cells, indicating that 3a was secreted together with S, possibly through the formation of virus particles.…”
