Cell infection by animal viruses is controlled by their structural proteins and by variation in those structures. Viral proteins interact with host cell receptors, leading to binding, uptake and intracellular trafficking, while interactions with host antibodies may neutralize infection with varying efficiencies. Many functions of viral structural proteins are still not fully understood, including the structural effects of receptor or antibody binding in controlling infection. Here we will continue to investigate those processes using parvovirus capsids as a model. The viruses being studied include canine parvovirus (CPV), which arose as a new pandemic pathogen due to changes in its interaction with the host transferrin receptor type-1 (TfR). The parvovirus capsids also bind antibodies to several epitopes with significant variation in the resulting neutralization. In the previous period we have generated important new information about the structures and functions of capsids, the roles of TfR variants in infection, and the binding of antibodies. The tools developed allow us to manipulate each component in order to understand how they control virus infection. The studies are presented as three complementary Aims: Aim 1. Explain the structural role of the receptor in the infectious process, and the effects of host- specific structural variation. Define the interactions of TfR apical domain mutants and variants with the complementary viral capsid structures, and explain how those control cell infection and viral host tropisms. Show how the receptor binding alters the capsid to prepare it for infection. Use other ligands to bind the capsid to result in endocytosis, and investigate the effects on infection. Aim 2. Define the capsid-mediated processes and structural variation required for cell infection. We have identified single changes in different capsid structures that prevent infection, and some of those appear to control key variation required for successful cell infection. We will define how those structures control the capsid functions, in particular the sources of specific intra-capsid cleavages. We will determine the high resolution structures of capsids with altered infectious properties using cryo-EM approaches. Those sites are asymmetric, as they occur in only ~10% of the capsid proteins. We will therefore use a variety of structural and biochemical approaches to study those structures and to explain their functions in the processes of cell infection. Aim 3. Analyze the interactions of antibodies with the capsid to explain the mechanisms of binding, neutralization, and antibody escape. Use high-resolution structures of capsid-Fab complexes to explain antibody-binding specificity, and also to understand how those interactions result in neutralization in some cases but not others. Use antibody and capsid mutations to alter the binding, neutralization, and cross- reactivity of antibodies, to define the functional interactions between capsids, antibodies, and receptors.

动物病毒的细胞感染受其结构蛋白的控制和这些结构的变化。病毒蛋白与宿主细胞受体相互作用，导致结合，摄取和细胞内运输，而与宿主抗体的相互作用可能会以不同的效率中和感染。病毒结构蛋白的许多功能仍未完全了解，包括受体或抗体结合在控制感染中的结构效应。在这里，我们将继续使用小腹病毒capsids作为模型来研究这些过程。所研究的病毒包括犬类小腹病毒（CPV），由于其与宿主转移蛋白受体类型1（TFR）的相互作用变化，它是一种新的大流行病原体。细小病毒衣壳还结合了几种表位的抗体，导致中和的抗体显着变化。在上一个时期，我们已经生成了有关衣壳的结构和功能，TFR变体在感染中的作用以及抗体结合的重要新信息。开发的工具使我们能够操纵每个组件，以了解它们如何控制病毒感染。研究将其作为三个互补目的提出：目标1。解释受体在传染过程中的结构作用以及宿主特定结构变化的影响。定义TFR顶端结构域突变体和变体与互补病毒衣壳结构的相互作用，并解释那些控制细胞感染和病毒宿主对tropismism的相互作用。展示受体结合如何改变衣壳以使其为感染做准备。使用其他配体结合衣壳以导致内吞作用，并研究对感染的影响。 AIM 2。定义细胞感染所需的衣壳介导的过程和结构变化。我们已经确定了可防止感染的不同衣壳结构中的单个变化，其中一些似乎控制了成功的细胞感染所需的关键变化。我们将定义这些结构如何控制衣壳功能，特别是特定的内部内部切割的来源。我们将使用冷冻EM方法确定具有改变感染性能的衣壳的高分辨率结构。这些位点是不对称的，因为它们仅发生在约10％的衣壳蛋白中。因此，我们将使用各种结构和生化方法研究这些结构，并在细胞感染过程中解释它们的功能。 AIM 3。分析抗体与capsid的相互作用，以解释结合，中和和抗体逃逸的机制。使用带状钉的高分辨率结构来解释抗体结合特异性，并了解这些相互作用在某些情况下如何导致中和如何导致中和。使用抗体和衣壳突变来改变抗体的结合，中和和交叉反应性，以定义衣壳，抗体和受体之间的功能相互作用。
