Modulation of the RNA Binding and Protein Processing Activities of Poliovirus Polypeptide 3CD by the Viral RNA Polymerase Domain

From the Department of Microbiology and Molecular Genetics, College of Medicine, University of California, Irvine, California 92697

To study the role of the RNA polymerase domain (3D) in the proteinase substrate recognition and RNA binding properties of poliovirus polypeptide 3CD, we generated recombinant 3C and 3CD polypeptides and purified them to near homogeneity. By using these purified proteins in in vitro cleavage assays with structural and non-structural viral polyprotein substrates, we found that 3CD processes the poliovirus structural polyprotein precursor (P1) 100 to 1000 times more efficiently than 3C processes P1. We also found that trans-cleavage of other 3CD molecules and sites within the non-structural P3 precursor is more efficiently mediated by 3CD than 3C. However, 3C and 3CD appear to be equally efficient in the processing of a non-structural polyprotein precursor, 2C3AB. Four mutated 3CD polyproteins with site-directed lesions in the 3D domain of the proteinase were analyzed for their ability to process viral polyprotein precursors and to form a ternary complex with RNA sequences encoded in the 5' terminus of the viral genome. Analysis of mutated 3CD polypeptides revealed that specific mutations within the 3D amino acid sequences of 3CD confer differential effects on 3CD activity. All four mutated 3CD proteins tested were able to process the P1 structural precursor with wild type or near wild type efficiency. However, three of the mutated enzymes demonstrated an impaired ability to process some sites within the P3 non-structural precursor, relative to wild type 3CD. One of the mutant 3CD polypeptides, 3CD-3DK127A, also displayed a defect in its ability to form a ternary ribonucleoprotein complex with poliovirus 5' RNA sequences.
