项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Parvoviruses are unique among all known organisms in having DNA genomes which are both single-stranded and linear. Both 5' and 3' ends of the genome are palindromic and can fold into hairpin structures that give rise to the two viral replication origins in replicative-form (RF) DNA. In the homotelomeric parvoviruses these hairpins are part of a terminal repeat, whereas for the heterotelomeric subgroup, the termini are typically unrelated to one another in either sequence or structure. The long term goal of this research program is to understand, at the molecular level, how heterotelomeric parvoviruses inveigle their host cell into replicating and packaging such apparently alien molecules. The major model we will continue to explore is the autonomous parvovirus Minute Virus of Mice (MVM), a genetically tractable virus that grows in cell culture. We will use what we learn from MVM to explore the function of the initiator protein of the newly-discovered pathogenic human bocavirus HBoV, for which there is currently no cell culture system. We propose to build on our previous research on MVM DNA replication initiation to study the structure and function of the terminal hairpins, extending this to the precise sequence requirements for NS1 binding, melting and nicking at MVM OriL. We will explore the functional significance of NS1 binding sites embedded in the MVM genome, and ask whether a similar situation pertains for HBoV. We will initiate studies on how the virus activates cellular DNA damage responses and whether the unique pseudochromatin that the virus elaborates is part of its strategy to evade, or employ, these elements of innate host defense. Genetic and biochemical approaches will be pursued to identify the molecular motor that drives genome packaging, and to explore the function(s) of the teminal hairpins in viral DNA replication and packaging. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: This research program aims to develop an understanding of the mechanisms underlying parvoviral DNA replication and packaging, and further our knowledge of parvoviruses as pathogens. These are also necessary prerequisites for the use of these viruses as vaccine vectors against infectious diseases and cancer. The newly discovered human parvovirus, HBoV, appears to be one of the most prevalent infections of childhood, and understanding its natural history and mode of replication will become of increasing importance as we discover more about its interaction with the human population. In the present renewal application, therefore, we propose to parlay what we know about parvoviral genome structure and DNA replication from the murine system into a study of similar processes that regulate replication of the human virus.

描述（由申请人提供）：在所有已知生物中，细小病毒在具有单链和线性的DNA基因组中都是独特的。基因组的5'和3'末端都是全文，并且可以折叠成发夹结构，从而导致复制形式（RF）DNA的两个病毒复制起源。在同型细胞视角病毒中，这些发夹是末端重复的一部分，而对于异光体亚组，末端通常以序列或结构彼此无关。该研究计划的长期目标是在分子水平上了解杂聚体细胞病毒如何使其宿主细胞复制和包装这种明显的外来分子。我们将继续探索的主要模型是小鼠（MVM）的自主细胞病毒分钟病毒，这是一种在细胞培养中生长的遗传诱变病毒。我们将使用从MVM中学到的知识来探索新发现的病原体Bocavirus HBOV的起始蛋白的功能，目前尚无细胞培养系统。我们建议基于我们先前关于MVM DNA复制启动的研究，以研究末端发夹的结构和功能，将其扩展到MVM Oril的NS1结合，熔化和缺口的确切序列要求。我们将探讨MVM基因组中嵌入的NS1结合位点的功能意义，并询问类似情况是否与HBOV有关。我们将开始研究该病毒如何激活细胞DNA损伤反应，以及该病毒阐述的独特伪色素是否是其逃避或采用这些先天宿主防御元素的策略的一部分。将采用遗传和生化方法，以识别驱动基因组包装的分子运动，并探索在病毒DNA复制和包装中Teminal发夹的功能。公共卫生相关性：该研究计划旨在建立对山谷病毒DNA复制和包装基础机制的理解，并进一步了解我们对细小病毒作为病原体的了解。这些也是将这些病毒用作疫苗媒介的必要先决条件，以抗传染病和癌症。新发现的人类细节病毒HBOV似乎是最普遍的童年感染之一，并且了解其自然历史和复制方式将变得越来越重要，因为我们更多地发现了有关其与人口相互作用的更多信息。因此，在当前的续订应用中，我们建议将我们对鼠类系统的细胞视角基因组结构和DNA复制的了解，以研究调节人类病毒复制的类似过程的研究。
