Three-dimensional structure of foot-and-mouth disease virus and its biological functions

Abstract: Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD), an acute, violent, infectious disease of cloven-hoofed animals, remains widespread in most parts of the world. It can lead to a major plague of livestock and an economical catastrophe. Structural studies of FMD virus (FMDV) have greatly contributed to our understanding of the virus life cycle and provided new horizons for the control and eradication of FMDV. To examine host-FMDV interactions and viral pathogenesis from a structural perspective, the structures of viral structural a… Show more

“…Subtle, rather than large, conformational change is reminiscent of the crystal structures of foot-and-mouth disease viruses (FMDVs) complexed with heparinoid oligosaccharides 45, 46, 47. So too are pre-formed sulfate-binding sites containing arginines, and natural or in vitro modulation of binding affinity and infectivity upon mutation of these residues 13, 46.…”

“…The viral particle is a spherical icosahedron with a diameter of approximately 25 to 30 nm and no lipid envelope. The surface of the virion is smooth, unusual among picornaviruses [40,41]. Four proteins, namely virus protein (VP) 1 (1D), VP2 (1B), VP3 (1C), and VP4 (1A), form the viral capsid.…”

“…Each of the surface-exposed VPs is formed by a betasandwich consisting of eight single strands labeled B, I, D, G, C, H, E, and F and seven connecting loops that are named after the adjacent beta-strands [43]. While the BIDG lamella is drawn together in the inner capsid, the CHEF strands as well as the associated loops are exposed on the outer capsid surface [41]. To make up the viral capsid, heterooligomeric protomers are built from one copy of each structural protein originating from the same P1-2A precursor molecule.…”

“…The FMDV genome encodes a total of 12 mature proteins translated from a single polyprotein coding region approximately 7 kilobases in length. The structural proteins VP1, VP2, VP3, and VP4 compose the capsid, with all but VP4 serving as major antigenic targets and taking part in receptor-mediated host cell entry [4, 6]. Positive selection has been identified predominantly within the capsid-encoding segments, leading to elevated amino acid replacement rates [79].…”
