E2F transcription factors can act as mediators of transcriptional repression or transcriptional activation.

CAR-dependent and CAR-independent pathways of adenovirus vector-mediated gene transfer and expression in human fibroblasts. (1/2914)

Primary fibroblasts are not efficiently transduced by subgroup C adenovirus (Ad) vectors because they express low levels of the high-affinity Coxsackie virus and adenovirus receptor (CAR). In the present study, we have used primary human dermal fibroblasts as a model to explore strategies by which Ad vectors can be designed to enter cells deficient in CAR. Using an Ad vector expressing the human CAR cDNA (AdCAR) at high multiplicity of infection, primary fibroblasts were converted from being CAR deficient to CAR sufficient. Efficiency of subsequent gene transfer by standard Ad5-based vectors and Ad5-based vectors with alterations in penton and fiber was evaluated. Marked enhancement of binding and transgene expression by standard Ad5 vectors was achieved in CAR-sufficient fibroblasts. Expression by AdDeltaRGDbetagal, an Ad5-based vector lacking the arginine-glycine-aspartate (RGD) alphaV integrin recognition site from its penton base, was achieved in CAR-sufficient, but not CAR-deficient, cells. Fiber-altered Ad5-based vectors, including (a) AdF(pK7)betagal (bearing seven lysines on the end of fiber) (b) AdF(RGD)betagal (bearing a high-affinity RGD sequence on the end of fiber), and (c) AdF9sK betagal (bearing a short fiber and Ad9 knob), demonstrated enhanced gene transfer in CAR-deficient fibroblasts, with no further enhancement in CAR-sufficient fibroblasts. Together, these observations demonstrate that CAR deficiency on Ad targets can be circumvented either by supplying CAR or by modifying the Ad fiber to bind to other cell-surface receptors.  (+info)

Reduced phosphorylation of p50 is responsible for diminished NF-kappaB binding to the major histocompatibility complex class I enhancer in adenovirus type 12-transformed cells. (2/2914)

Reduced cell surface levels of major histocompatibility complex class I antigens enable adenovirus type 12 (Ad12)-transformed cells to escape immunosurveillance by cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL), contributing to their tumorigenic potential. In contrast, nontumorigenic Ad5-transformed cells harbor significant cell surface levels of class I antigens and are susceptible to CTL lysis. Ad12 E1A mediates down-regulation of class I transcription by increasing COUP-TF repressor binding and decreasing NF-kappaB activator binding to the class I enhancer. The mechanism underlying the decreased binding of nuclear NF-kappaB in Ad12-transformed cells was investigated. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay analysis of hybrid NF-kappaB dimers reconstituted from denatured and renatured p50 and p65 subunits from Ad12- and Ad5-transformed cell nuclear extracts demonstrated that p50, and not p65, is responsible for the decreased ability of NF-kappaB to bind to DNA in Ad12-transformed cells. Hypophosphorylation of p50 was found to correlate with restricted binding of NF-kappaB to DNA in Ad12-transformed cells. The importance of phosphorylation of p50 for NF-kappaB binding was further demonstrated by showing that an NF-kappaB dimer composed of p65 and alkaline phosphatase-treated p50 from Ad5-transformed cell nuclear extracts could not bind to DNA. These results suggest that phosphorylation of p50 is a key step in the nuclear regulation of NF-kappaB in adenovirus-transformed cells.  (+info)

Microtubule-dependent plus- and minus end-directed motilities are competing processes for nuclear targeting of adenovirus. (3/2914)

Adenovirus (Ad) enters target cells by receptor-mediated endocytosis, escapes to the cytosol, and then delivers its DNA genome into the nucleus. Here we analyzed the trafficking of fluorophore-tagged viruses in HeLa and TC7 cells by time-lapse microscopy. Our results show that native or taxol-stabilized microtubules (MTs) support alternating minus- and plus end-directed movements of cytosolic virus with elementary speeds up to 2.6 micrometer/s. No directed movement was observed in nocodazole-treated cells. Switching between plus- and minus end-directed elementary speeds at frequencies up to 1 Hz was observed in the periphery and near the MT organizing center (MTOC) after recovery from nocodazole treatment. MT-dependent motilities allowed virus accumulation near the MTOC at population speeds of 1-10 micrometer/min, depending on the cell type. Overexpression of p50/dynamitin, which is known to affect dynein-dependent minus end-directed vesicular transport, significantly reduced the extent and the frequency of minus end-directed migration of cytosolic virus, and increased the frequency, but not the extent of plus end-directed motility. The data imply that a single cytosolic Ad particle engages with two types of MT-dependent motor activities, the minus end- directed cytoplasmic dynein and an unknown plus end- directed activity.  (+info)

Differences in the interactions of oncogenic adenovirus 12 early region 1A and nononcogenic adenovirus 2 early region 1A with the cellular coactivators p300 and CBP. (4/2914)

Association with the cellular coactivators p300 and CBP is required for the growth-regulatory function of adenoviral (Ad) early region 1A (E1A) proteins. E1A regions necessary for these interactions overlap with domains involved in the induction of tumours in immunocompetent rodents through highly oncogenic Ad12. Differences in the association of cellular factors with the respective E1A domains of Ad12 and nononcogenic Ad2 might therefore be involved in serotype-specific oncogenicity. We analyzed the interaction of the Ad12 E1A 235R protein with p300 and CBP. Here we demonstrate that in the case of Ad12, but not Ad2/5, amino acids (aa) 1-29 of E1A proteins are sufficient to bind the p300-C/H3 domain in vivo and wild-type p300 in vitro. The conserved arginine-2, which is essential for the interaction between Ad2 E1A and p300, was dispensable for the Ad12 E1A 235R-p300 interaction in vitro. In addition to the p300-C/H3 region, we identified a second domain within p300 (aa 1999-2200) binding to the 235R protein. Contrary to p300, the amino-terminus and CR1 are necessary to associate with CBP. The aa 1-29 of the 235R protein but not CR1 are essential for the repression of colTRE-driven gene expression. This repression function is strictly dependent on p300 but not on CBP.  (+info)

Evidence for an adenovirus type 2-coded early glycoprotein. (5/2914)

We have identified an adenovirus type 2 (Ad2)-induced early glycopolypeptide with an apparent molecular weight of 20,000 to 21,000 (20/21K), as estimated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The 20/21K polypeptide could be labeled in vivo with [(3)H]glucosamine. [(35)S]methionine- and [(3)H]-glucosamine-labeled 20/21K polypeptides bound to concanavalin A-Sepharose columns and were eluted with 0.2 M methyl-alpha-d-mannoside. The pulse-labeled polypeptide appeared as a sharp band with an apparent molecular weight of 21K, but after a chase it converted to multiple bands with an average molecular weight of 20K. This variability in electrophoretic mobility is consistent with glycosylation or deglycosylation of the 20/21K polypeptide. Analysis of the pulse and pulse-chase-labeled forms by using partial proteolysis indicated that the polypeptides were highly related chemically, but not identical. Most of the 20/21K polypeptide is localized in the cytoplasm fraction of infected cells lysed by Nonidet P-40. The 20/21K polypeptide and a 44K polypeptide, labeled with [(35)S]methionine or [(3)H]glucosamine in Ad2-infected human cells, were precipitated by a rat antiserum against an Ad2-transformed rat cell line (T2C4), but not by antisera against three other Ad2-transformed rat cell lines, or by serum from nonimmune rats. The partial proteolysis patterns of the 20/21K and the 44K polypeptides were indistinguishable, indicating that the two polypeptides are highly related, and suggesting that the 44K polypeptide might be a dimer of the 20/21K polypeptide. The 20/21K polypeptide was also induced in Ad2-early infected monkey and hamster cells. These results imply that the 20/21K polypeptide is synthesized in Ad2-infected human, monkey, and hamster cells, and in one but not all Ad2-transformed rat cells. Thus, the 20/21K polypeptide is probably viral coded rather than cell coded and viral induced.  (+info)

Development and use of a 293 cell line expressing lac repressor for the rescue of recombinant adenoviruses expressing high levels of rabies virus glycoprotein. (6/2914)

An expression cassette designed for high-level production of rabies virus glycoprotein (RG) could not be rescued into a replication-defective, adenovirus-based vector using standard procedures. To overcome this difficulty, a 293-based cell line, designated 293LAP13, was constructed that contained and expressed a derivative of the lac repressor protein. The lac operator sequence, to which the repressor binds, was incorporated into an expression cassette, containing a promoter and intron, designed for high-level production of RG. Insertion of a single operator sequence immediately downstream of the transcription start site and the use of the 293LAP13 cell line allowed recombinant viruses that could not be isolated with 293 cells to be rescued efficiently. The operator-containing virus reached higher titres in 293LAP13 than in parental 293 cells and also produced plaques more efficiently in 293LAP13 cells. Moreover, in non-complementing human and canine cell lines, adenovirus vectors with a promoter-intron expression cassette expressed RG at much higher levels than vectors lacking the intron. These observations, together with the demonstration that expression of RG by operator-containing vectors was repressed markedly in 293LAP13 cells and that this inhibition was relieved at least partly by IPTG, suggest that the 293LAP13 cell line may be useful for the rescue and propagation of many vectors in which high expression of the desired protein prevents vector rescue in 293 cells.  (+info)

The adenoviral E1A oncoproteins interfere with the growth-inhibiting effect of the cdk-inhibitor p21(CIP1/WAF1). (7/2914)

The cdk-inhibitor p21(CIP1/WAF1) inhibits the activities of cyclin-dependent kinases and proliferating cell nuclear antigen, thereby repressing cell-cycle progression and DNA replication. Transforming oncogenes, such as E1A of human adenovirus 5 (Ad5), may interfere with such growth-inhibitory proteins. In this study, we show that in various Ad5E1-transformed cells, p21(CIP1/WAF1) is expressed and that, in general, expression is not downregulated. In addition, colony-formation assays show that in Ad5E1-transformed cells highly overexpressed p21(CIP1/WAF1) can still cause growth inhibition. FACS experiments indicate, however, that a G1 arrest induced by moderate overexpression of p21(CIP1/WAF1) can be overcome by E1A. The E1A proteins may interfere with the function of p21(CIP1/WAF1) by binding. Indeed, p21(CIP1/WAF1) binds with its cyclin/cdk-binding N terminus to the transforming N-terminal and CR1 region of the E1A proteins. Together, these results lend support to the model that E1A can interfere directly with p21(CIP1/WAF1) function and thereby stimulates cell growth.  (+info)

Early region 1 transforming functions are dispensable for mammary tumorigenesis by human adenovirus type 9. (8/2914)

Some human adenoviruses are tumorigenic in rodents. Subgroup A and B human adenoviruses generally induce sarcomas in both male and female animals, and the gene products encoded within viral early region 1 (E1 region) are both necessary and sufficient for this tumorigenicity. In contrast, subgroup D human adenovirus type 9 (Ad9) induces estrogen-dependent mammary tumors in female rats and requires the E4 region-encoded ORF1 oncoprotein for its tumorigenicity. Considering the established importance of the viral E1 region for tumorigenesis by adenoviruses, we investigated whether this viral transcription unit is also necessary for Ad9 to generate mammary tumors. The nucleotide sequence of the Ad9 E1 region indicated that the gene organization and predicted E1A and E1B polypeptides of Ad9 are closely related to those of other human adenovirus E1 regions. In addition, an Ad9 E1 region plasmid demonstrated focus-forming activity in both low-passage-number and established rat embryo fibroblasts, whereas a large deletion within either the E1A or E1B gene of this plasmid diminished transforming activity. Surprisingly, we found that introducing the same transformation-inactivating E1A and E1B deletions into Ad9 results in mutant viruses that retain the ability to elicit mammary tumors in rats. These results are novel in showing that Ad9 represents a unique oncogenic adenovirus in which the E4 region, rather than the E1 region, encodes the major oncogenic determinant in the rat.  (+info)

Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is currently one of the mainstays of palliative treatments worldwide for patients with unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma(HCC).However, the long term outcomes were generally poor for HCC patients treated with TACE. Recombinant Human Adenovirus Type 5, an E1B gene deleted adenovirus, is known to have a significant antitumor activity. In addition, local injection of recombinant human adenovirus type 5 can enhance the effect of antitumor therapies (chemotherapy and radiotherapy). The hypothesis is that patients with unresectable HCC may benefit from recombinant human adenovirus type 5 in combination with TACE ...
Summary Evidence is presented here which indicates that the adenovirus DNA-binding protein (DBP) is phosphorylated at a tyrosine residue early in infection. This was suggested by the discovery that a proportion of the label in 32P-labelled DBP was resistant to alkali, and was substantiated by acid hydrolysis of DBP immunoprecipitates and by immunoblotting with a monoclonal antibody against phosphotyrosine. Treatment of [35S] methionine-labelled DBPs with chymotrypsin produced fragments of apparent M r 45K and 39K whereas digestion of 32P-labelled DBP resulted in fragments of 45K and 26K. Consideration of the distribution of 32P label and its alkali stability in these fragments suggested that chymotrypsin cleaved populations of DBP at different sites depending on their phosphorylation states. The conservation, in all of the seven adenovirus serotypes sequenced, of a tyrosine residue (at amino acid 195 in adenovirus type 2) together with its surrounding residues, suggests that phosphorylation

Human adenoviruses are non-enveloped dsDNA viruses of almost 35 kb in size [1]. HAdV can infect a variety of tissues and cause a wide range of complications like gastroenteritis, hepatitis, myocarditis, keratoconjunctivitis and pneumonia [2, 3]. It is contagion in nature which occurs through direct contact or fomites and virus is also resistant to various physical and chemical agents. Children younger than the age of 5 years and immune compromised persons especially the pediatric patients are most susceptible to these viruses. Worldwide 5-7% respiratory tract infections are ascribed by HAdV in pediatric patients [4] and persons of all ages are susceptible to infections caused by these viruses [5].. Seven known Human adenoviruses species from HAdV-A to HAdV-G are constitute of the genus Mastadenovirus in which all the human adenoviruses are categorized and further divided into different strains [6]. Now 67 types of HAdV have been reported [7]. Their number is rapidly increasing due to ...

In 2005, a human adenovirus strain (formerly known as HAdV-D22/H8 but renamed here HAdV-D53) was isolated from an outbreak of epidemic keratoconjunctititis (EKC), a disease that is usually caused by HAdV-D8, -D19, or -D37, not HAdV-D22. To date, a complete change of tropism compared to the prototype has never been observed, although apparent recombinant strains of other viruses from species Human adenovirus D (HAdV-D) have been described. The complete genome of HAdV-D53 was sequenced to elucidate recombination events that lead to the emergence of a viable and highly virulent virus with a modified tropism. Bioinformatic and phylogenetic analyses of this genome demonstrate that this adenovirus is a recombinant of HAdV-D8 (including the fiber gene encoding the primary cellular receptor binding site), HAdV-D22, (the ε determinant of the hexon gene), HAdV-D37 (including the penton base gene encoding the secondary cellular receptor binding site), and at least one unknown or unsequenced HAdV-D strain.

Entry of adenoviruses into the host cell involves two sets of interactions between the virus and the host cell. Most of the action occurs at the vertices. Entry into the host cell is initiated by the knob domain of the fiber protein binding to the cell receptor. The two currently established receptors are: CD46 for the group B human adenovirus serotypes and the coxsackievirus adenovirus receptor (CAR) for all other serotypes. There are some reports suggesting MHC molecules and sialic acid residues functioning in this capacity as well. This is followed by a secondary interaction, where a motif in the penton base protein interacts with an integrin molecule. It is the co-receptor interaction that stimulates entry of the adenovirus. This co-receptor molecule is αv integrin. Binding to αv integrin results in endocytosis of the virus particle via clathrin-coated pits. Attachment to αv integrin stimulates cell signaling and thus induces actin polymerization resulting in entry of the virion into the ...

Adenovirus genomes are linear, non-segmented double-stranded (ds) DNA molecules that are typically 26-46 Kbp long, containing 23-46 protein-coding genes. The example used for the following description is Human adenovirus E, a mastadenovirus with a 36 Kbp genome containing 38 protein-coding genes. While the precise number and identity of genes varies among adenoviruses, the basic principles of genome organization and the functions of most of the genes described in this article are shared among all adenoviruses. The 38 genes in the Human Adenovirus E genome are organized in 17 transcription units, each containing 1-8 coding sequences. Alternative splicing during processing of the pre-mRNAs produced by each transcription unit enable multiple different mRNAs to be produced from one transcription unit. The E1A, E1B, E2A, E2B, E3, and E4 transcription units are successively transcribed early in the viral reproductive cycle. The proteins coded for by genes within these transcription units are mostly ...
Vectors derived from human adenovirus type 5, which typically lack the E1A and E1B genes, induce robust innate immune responses that limit their therapeutic efficacy. mutant-infected cells in the absence or presence of exogenous IFN. Both the concentration of viral genomes detected during the late phase and the numbers of viral replication centers formed were strongly reduced in IFN-treated cells in the absence of the E1B protein, despite production of similar quantities of viral replication proteins. These defects could not be attributed to degradation of entering viral genomes, induction of apoptosis, or failure to reorganize components of PML nuclear bodies. Nor was assembly of Nutlin 3a the E1B- and E4 Orf6 protein- E3 ubiquitin ligase required to prevent inhibition of viral replication by IFN. However, by using RT-PCR, the E1B 55 kDa protein was demonstrated to be a potent repressor of expression of IFN-inducible genes in IFN-treated cells. We propose that a primary function of the ...
To define the bottlenecks that restrict antigen expression after oral administration of viral-vectored vaccines, we tracked vectors derived from the human adenovirus type 5 at whole body, tissue and cellular scales throughout the digestive tract in a murine model of oral delivery. After intragastric administration of vectors encoding firefly luciferase or a model antigen, detectable levels of transgene-encoded protein or mRNA were confined to the intestine, and restricted to delimited anatomical zones. Expression of luciferase in the form of multiple small bioluminescent foci in the distal ileum, cecum and proximal colon suggested multiple crossing points. Many foci were unassociated with visible Peyers patches, implying that transduced cells lay in proximity to villous rather than follicle-associated epithelium, as supported by detection of transgene-encoded antigen in villous epithelial cells. Transgene-encoded mRNA but not protein was readily detected in Peyers patches, suggesting that post
Human adenovirus (HAdV) is a common pathogen causing a broad spectrum of diseases. HAdV encodes the pVII protein, which is involved in nuclear delivery, protection and expression of viral DNA. To suppress the cellular interferon (IFN) and RNA interference (RNAi) systems, HAdVs encode non-coding virus-associated (VA) RNAs. In this thesis we have investigated the functional significance of the pVII protein and VA RNAI in HAdV-5 infected cells.. We report that the propeptide module is the destabilizing element targeting the precursor pVII protein for proteasomal degradation. We also found that the Cul3-based E3 ubiquitin ligase complex alter the precursor pVII protein stability via binding to the propeptide sequence. In addition, we show that inhibition of the Cul3 protein reduces HAdV-5 E1A gene expression. Collectively, our results suggest a novel function for the pVII propeptide module and involvement of Cul3 in viral E1A gene expression.. Our studies show that the cellular E3 ubiquitin ligase ...

Antisera against hexons of serotypes 2, 4, 5, and 6 (subgroup III), and 15 (subgroup II) were absorbed with purified hexons of various serotypes representing the different subgroups of human adenoviruses. Group, subgroup, and type specificities of hexons could be distinguished. The subgroup specificity of type 4 hexons resembled that of hexons of subgroup I members (types 3, 11, and 16). Antihexon sera gave a type-specific inhibition of virion-associated hemagglutinin. The inhibiting activity of different sera was found to be inversely related to the length of fibers of the serotype concerned. Virions of serotypes carrying fibers shorter than about 20 nm (types 3, 4, 9, 11, and 15) were readily inhibited, whereas those of serotypes with longer fibers (types 2 and 6) were inhibited only by relatively large amounts of antibody measured in terms of homotypic complement fixation activity. The reciprocal cross-neutralization between serotypes 4 and 16 was studied separately. Hexons of both serotypes ...
The precursor of the 55K adenovirus terminal protein is an 87K protein that is covalently linked to viral DNA. This protein is likely to be identical to the 80,000 dalton protein described by Challberg et al. (1980). The mRNA for the 87K terminal protein precursor, like that for the E2-72K DNA binding protein, is detectable at both early and late times of infection, and its production is sensitive to protein synthesis inhibition (Lewis and Mathews, 1980). The 87K protein, together with proteins of 105,000 and 75,000 daltons, are translated from leftward transcribed (1-strand) messenger RNAs that are complementary to the viral genome between positions 11.2 and 31.5. Additional hybridization to the region between coordinates 37.3 and 41 suggests that the RNA body is spliced to sequences mapping farther right in the genome. Electron microscopic heteroduplex analysis has revealed a family of 1-strand RNAs that probably encode these proteins. The RNA bodies extend from coordinated 30, 26 and 23 to ...
Recombinant adenoviruses currently are used for a variety of purposes, including gene transfer in vitro, vaccination in vivo, and gene therapy (1-4). Several features of adenovirus biology have made such viruses the vectors of choice for certain of these applications. For example, adenoviruses transfer genes to a broad spectrum of cell types, and gene transfer is not dependent on active cell division. Additionally, high titers of viruses and high levels of transgene expression generally can be obtained.. Decades of study of adenovirus biology have resulted in a detailed picture of the viral life cycle and the functions of the majority of viral proteins (5, 6). The genome of the most commonly used human adenovirus (serotype 5) consists of a linear, 36-kb, double-stranded DNA molecule. Both strands are transcribed and nearly all transcripts are heavily spliced. Viral transcription units are conventionally referred to as early (E1, E2, E3, and E4) and late, depending on their temporal expression ...

Adenovirus has been associated with both sporadic and epidemic disease and, with regard to infections among military recruits, who were routinely immunized against types 4 and 7 from 1971 until the cessation of vaccine production in 1996. Adenovirus became a significant cause of economic cost and morbidity in this setting. A live oral vaccine against adenovirus types 4 and 7 was approved for use in this population by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2011, and subsequent incidence of acute respiratory disease declined.. Of interest is the role of adenoviruses as vectors in vaccination and in gene therapy. [1, 2, 3] Adenoviruses can infect various cells, both proliferating and quiescent, and thus hold the promise of targeting many different tissues and diseased cell lines.. The genome of adenovirus is well known and can be modified with relative ease to induce lysis or cytotoxicity of a specified cell line without affecting others.. The virus itself can be engineered to remove its ...
The E4 region of human adenovirus type 2 is predicted to encode seven proteins as judged from its nucleotide sequence and the pattern of differential splicing of its transcript. Two of the open reading frames (ORFs), ORF1 and ORF2, had been identified as being disrupted in the recently published sequence of the related serotype 5 virus. These ORFs were resequenced and found to be intact in the wt300 strain of adenovirus type 5.
Most adenoviruses bind directly to the coxsackie and adenovirus receptor (CAR) on target cells in vitro, but recent research has shown that adenoviruses can also use soluble components in body fluids for indirect binding to target cells. These mechanisms have been identified upon addressing the questions of how to de- and retarget adenovirus-based vectors for human gene and cancer therapy, but the newly identified mechanisms also suggest that the role of body fluids and their components may also be of importance for natural, primary infections. Here we demonstrate that plasma, saliva, and tear fluid promote binding and infection of adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) in respiratory and ocular epithelial cells, which corresponds to the natural tropism of most adenoviruses, and that plasma promotes infection by Ad31. By using a set of binding and infection experiments, we also found that Ad5 and Ad31 require coagulation factors IX (FIX) or X (FX) or just FIX, respectively, for efficient binding and infection. ...

NEW YORK (GenomeWeb News) - Researchers from China and the US will sequence 100 human adenoviruses, including ones that cause respiratory, gastrointestinal, and ocular diseases, under a partnership announced today.
The quest for an efficacious HIV vaccine has resulted in several clinical trial failures, including the Step Trial, which used a replication-incompetent adenovirus (AdV) vector called human adenovirus type 5 (HAdV-5). Despite eliciting strong cellular immune responses, these trials were prematurely halted due to statistical futility resulting from increased HIV acquisition in vaccinated individuals. The Step Study showed increased HIV susceptibility in HAdV-5 baseline seropositive subjects, which complicates the use of HAdV-5 vectors since pre-existing neutralizing antibodies (nAb) to HAdV-5 are prevalent worldwide. Sampling the unique immunological phenotypes of the rectal mucosa - the site of HIV infection in the Step Study, and of AdV persistence and trafficking - could help explain this trial, since only peripheral blood (PBMC) was collected from subjects. We obtained rectal lamina propria T lymphocytes (rLPL) from a rhesus macaque (RM) model vaccinated with a species-specific simian Ad type 7 (SAdV

N2 - Gene expression of rat cytochrome P‐450c (P‐450c) depends upon inducible enhancers scattered in the 5′‐upstream region of the gene. We show that expression of the P‐450c gene is repressed by contransfection with adenovirus E1a DNA, regardless of the presence or absence of inducers, in a transient expression system of HeLa cells. Since cotransfection of either 13S or 12S E1a cDNA was effective in the repression, the region necessary for repression could be separated from that of transactivation of other adenovirus early genes. Moreover, we investigated the regions responsible for the inhibitory activity using in‐frame deletion mutants lacking internal or external portions of the E1a proteins. The ...

There are many stages in the development of a new drug for viral infection and such processes are even further complicated for adenovirus by the fact that there are at least 51 serotypes, forming six distinct groups (A-F), with different degree of infectivity. This review attempts to address the importance of developing pharmaceuticals for adenovirus and also review recent development in drug discovery for adenovirus, including newer strategies such as microRNA approaches. Different drug screening strategies will also be discussed.
Adenovirus Type 9, 0.1 mg. The many different serotypes of human adenoviruses (Ad) are divided into six subgroups, of which all Ad subgroup A and B and two subgroup D Ads can elicit tumors in infected rodents.

This antibody response derives from polyreactive B cells that cross-react with Env and intestinal microbiota (IM) (2, 3). Nevertheless, it is unidentified if an identical gp41-reactive Ab response would take place in the placing of HIV-1 Env vaccination.

In tumor cells, the p53 pathway is often disrupted. Therefore, recovering the function of wild-type p53 and its targets in tumor cells is a key therapeutic objective. In head and neck cancer, p53 mutations are frequent, and the incidence of p53 mutations increases with progression of head and neck cancer (46, 47). Therefore, a recombinant human adenovirus that expresses functional wild-type p53 has been approved by the Chinese government for the treatment of head and neck carcinoma (48-50). Treatments showed that antitumor efficacy was associated with the expression and activity of functional p53, and adverse effects were also significant (51-54). Recently, pharmacologically activated wild-type p53 by small-molecule compound RITA is reported to inhibit glycolytic enzymes and, therefore, induce robust apoptosis in cancer cells (55). In addition, enhancement of p53 protein stability is also a target in restoring wild-type p53 activity in cancer cells. The protein level of wild-type p53 is ...

Greetings- Im interested in the net surface charge on mammalian viruses and how viral charge affects viral adsorption. It is my understanding (correct me if Im wrong) that mammalian viruses have a net negative charge at physiologic pH. I find this interesting because of the net negative charge on mammalian cells due to their phospholipid content. I have been working with human adenovirus gene transfer vectors and have found that the pI of adeno capsid proteins are: Hexon = 4.5 and penton = 4.7. pI of fiber protein on adenovirus is reported to be 7.07. From these data, I have concluded that, at pH 7.0, an adeno virus particle has a negative core (Hexon and penton) with positively charged fiber protrusions. Is this correct (my chemistry is a little rusty)? If so, it would explain how negatively charged adenovirus particles might interact with negatively charged cell surfaces (via positive fiber protein). Thank you, in advance for any comments and corrections. In reading this note, if any related ...
1NLN: Crystallographic structure at 1.6-A resolution of the human adenovirus proteinase in a covalent complex with its 11-amino-acid peptide cofactor: insights on a new fold
We identified previously unrecognized variations in the fiber gene and E4 ORF 6/7 peptides among the various genome types of Ad7. In particular, multiple amino acid changes at E4 ORF 6/7 peptides showed genome type-specific differences between Ad7d and a novel genome type Ad7l. However, no genetic divergence was identified in the hexon gene or in E3 peptides among the 12 Korean strains of Ad7. This result indicates that the nucleotide structures of the fiber gene and of E4 ORF 6/7 peptides might have contributed to the genetic heterogeneity during the Ad7 epidemics in Korea, whereas those of the hexon gene and E3 were highly conserved.. So far, the fiber gene and E4 have rarely been addressed with regard to the evolution and molecular epidemiology of Ad7 strains (17). Restriction analysis of genomic DNA has been the most popular method of describing the molecular epidemiology of the adenoviruses (18). However, little is known about sequence variations with regard to the genome type within an ...
The adenovirus E1B gene products are required for productive infection of human cells and for complete transformation of rodent cells in cooperation with the E1A gene products. Two major, unrelated polypeptides of 55,000 (55K) and 19,000 (19K) daltons are encoded by the E1B region. The 55K protein is required for efficient DNA replication, late mRNA transport to the cytoplasm and shut-off of cellular mRNA transport in productively infected cells. This protein is required for virus-mediated, but not DNA-mediated, transformation of rodent cells. It appears that the 55K protein does not directly contribute to cell transformation, but influences the oncogenicity of adenoviruses when they are inoculated into newborn hamsters. In contrast, the 19K protein is required for adenovirus induced cellular transformation and oncogenicity and localizes to membranes of the nuclear envelope, cytoplasm and the cell surface in transformed cells. This protein affects the efficiency of virus growth in some, but not ...

RIGOTTO, C et al. Evaluation of HA negatively charged membranes in the recovery of human adenoviruses and hepatitis A virus in different water matrices. Mem. Inst. Oswaldo Cruz [online]. 2009, vol.104, n.7, pp.970-974. ISSN 0074-0276. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0074-02762009000700005.. Human adenoviruses (HAdV) and hepatitis A virus (HAV) are shed in the faeces and consequently may be present in environmental waters, resulting in an increase in pathogen concentration that can affect water quality and human health. The aim of this study was to evaluate an adsorption-elution method which utilizes negatively charged membrane HA to determine the efficient recovery of HAdV and HAV from different water matrices and to combine this procedure with a qualitative molecular method (nested RT-PCR and nested PCR). The best efficiency recovery was achieved in distilled water and treated wastewater effluent (100%) for both viruses and in recreational lagoon water for HAV (100%). The efficiency recovery was 10% ...
Human adenovirus, of the Adenoviridae family, is a nonenveloped icosahedral particle containing a single linear dsDNA genome. Human adenovirus comprises 6 species (A through F) consisting of serotypes 1 - 51, and associated with a variety of clinical illnesses. Serotypes 1-39, 42-51 are associated with a variety of respiratory disease, generally in children and immunocompromised persons; whereas serotypes 40 and 41 is associated with enteric disease (enteric adenovirus) particularly in children - these enteric adenoviruses will not be detected with the assay described here. Serotypes 12, 18, 31 have a high oncogenic potential and serotypes 4 and 7 are associated with acute respiratory disease (ARD) frequently in military recruits and typically occur in the winter and spring. Smaller outbreaks of serotypes 3, 4, and 7 occur in the summertime and are associated with contaminated swimming pool water.. Adenovirus infections of the eye may lead to pharyngo-conjunctival fever, follicular ...
Human adenoviruses (HAdVs) cause a wide range of diseases worldwide, including respiratory infections. Studies on HAdV molecular epidemiology are limited in Cameroon. The purpose of this study is to document the different types HAdV circulating in Cameroon in children with acute respiratory infections. Nasopharyngeal swabs were collected from 811 children under 15 years from 2011 to 2014. The HAdV detection was assessed by semi-quantitative generic PCR r-gene®. The HAdV-positive samples were typed by amplification and sequencing of partial hexon gene and a real-time PCR. Demographic data were collected and analyzed. The infection and hospitalization risk factors were assessed thought the Chi-square test. A total of 137/220 HAdV-positive samples were amplified successfully. Six species of HAdV (Mastadenovirus A to F) were detected with B (108/220) and C (47/220) being the predominant strains. Hospitalization and age were significantly associated to HAdV-B and HAdV-C respectively. Phylogenetic analysis
Adenovirus type 37 (Ad37) is a leading cause of epidemic keratoconjunctivitis (EKC), a severe and highly contagious ocular disease. Whereas most other adenoviruses infect cells by engaging CD46 or the coxsackie and adenovirus receptor (CAR), Ad37 binds previously unknown sialic acid-containing cell surface molecules. By glycan array screening, we show here that the receptor-recognizing knob domain of the Ad37 fiber protein specifically binds a branched hexasaccharide that is present in the GD1a ganglioside and that features two terminal sialic acids. Soluble GD1a glycan and GD1a-binding antibodies efficiently prevented Ad37 virions from binding and infecting corneal cells. Unexpectedly, the receptor is constituted by one or more glycoproteins containing the GD1a glycan motif rather than the ganglioside itself, as shown by binding, infection and flow cytometry experiments. Molecular modeling, nuclear magnetic resonance and X-ray crystallography reveal that the two terminal sialic acids dock into two of
RNA molecules from nuclear and cytoplasmic polyribosomes of adenovirus-infected HeLa cells were compared by hybridization to analyse the sequence content. Nuclear polyribosomes were released by exposure of intact detergent-washed nuclei to poly(U) and purified. Cytoplasmic polyribosomes were also purified from the same cells. To show that nuclear polyribosomes contain ribosomes linked by mRNA, polyribosomes were labelled with methionine and uridine in the presence of actinomycin D in adenovirus-infected cells. Purified nuclear polyribosomes were treated with EDTA under conditions which dissociate polyribosomes into ribosomes and subunits with a simultaneous release of mRNA, and sedimented. The treatment dissociated these polyribosomes, releasing the mRNA from them. Radiolabelled total RNA from each polyribosome population was fractionated in sucrose gradients into several pools or hybridized to intact adenovirus DNA to select virus-specific RNA. Sucrose-gradient-fractionated pool-3 RNA (about ...
The utility of recombinant adenovirus serotype 5 (rAd5) vector-based vaccines for HIV-1 and other pathogens will likely be limited by the high prevalence of pre-existing Ad5-specific neutralizing Abs (NAbs) in human populations. However, the immunodominant targets of Ad5-specific NAbs in humans remain poorly characterized. In this study, we assess the titers and primary determinants of Ad5-specific NAbs in individuals from both the United States and the developing world. Importantly, median Ad5-specific NAb titers were ,10-fold higher in sub-Saharan Africa compared with the United States. Moreover, hexon-specific NAb titers were 4- to 10-fold higher than fiber-specific NAb titers in these cohorts by virus neutralization assays using capsid chimeric viruses. We next performed adoptive transfer studies in mice to evaluate the functional capacity of hexon- and fiber-specific NAbs to suppress the immunogenicity of a prototype rAd5-Env vaccine. Hexon-specific NAbs were remarkably efficient at ...
The high prevalence of pre-existing anti-Ad5 immunity in human populations may substantially limit the immunogenicity and clinical utility of rAd5 vector-based vaccines for HIV-1 and other pathogens. Our studies demonstrate ,90% Ad5 seroprevalence in sub-Saharan Africa with median NAb titers ,10-fold higher than those found in the United States. These data suggest that rAd5 vectors should be engineered to evade dominant Ad5-specific NAbs before their use as vaccine vectors in the developing world. To determine the principal targets of Ad5-specific NAbs, we exploited the lack of detectable serologic cross-reactivity between Ad5 and Ad35 (8). Virus neutralization studies using capsid chimeric rAd5/rAd35 vectors and serum samples from both humans and mice demonstrated that Ad5-specific NAbs were directed primarily against the Ad5 hexon protein. Fiber-specific NAbs were detected at low frequencies in vitro but were substantially less efficient than hexon-specific NAbs at blunting rAd5 vaccine ...
Last year, Chiu and colleagues also identified another new adenovirus, named simian adenovirus C, which sickened four of nine captive baboons and killed two of them at a primate facility in 1997. Several staff members at the facility also complained of upper respiratory symptoms at the time of the outbreak. Re-examining the samples many years later, Chiu and his colleagues found antibodies targeted to simian adenovirus C in the human samples.. Chiu concluded that staff members had been exposed to the new virus, and that the virus may have jumped from baboon to human, an idea also supported by follow-up experiments in which laboratory strains of simian adenovirus C efficiently infected both human and baboon cells.. Adenoviruses to date have not generally been linked to cross-species infections between monkeys and humans, Chiu said.. In light of these findings, however, he said the normal vigilance in tracking animal viruses that might also infect humans should extend beyond influenza and ...
Seventy-eight cases were identified in patients from four eye care practices, two family practices, and the hospital emergency department. The median patient age was 45 years (range = 9 months-90 years), and 33 (42%) were men. Ocular signs and symptoms included redness (68%), watery discharge (50%), and pain (29%). Severe signs included corneal infiltrates (17%) and pseudomembranes (6%). At least 12 cases (15%) were health care-associated (Figure). One health care-associated case occurred in a health care worker. Seventeen patients whose infections were not health care-associated reported a symptomatic household or community contact. Among 45 conjunctival swabs available for testing, 19 (42%) were positive for HAdV-8. Genome sequences obtained from five HAdV-8 isolates were 100% identical with one another and showed 97.7% (accession number AB861610.1) to 99.9% (accession number KT340070.1) nucleotide sequence similarity to other HAdV-8 genome sequences available in GenBank, the National ...
Mature human adenovirus particles contain four minor capsid proteins, in addition to the three major capsid proteins (penton base, hexon and fiber) and several proteins associated with the genomic core of the virion. Of the minor capsid proteins, VI plays several crucial roles in the infection cycle of the virus, ... read more including hexon nuclear targeting during assembly, activation of the adenovirus proteinase (AVP) during maturation and endosome escape following cell entry. VI is translated as a precursor (pVI) that is cleaved at both N- and C-termini by AVP. Whereas the role of the C-terminal fragment of pVI, pVIc, is well established as an important co-factor of AVP, the role of the N-terminal fragment, pVIn, is currently elusive. In fact, the fate of pVIn following proteolytic cleavage is completely unknown. Here, we use a combination of proteomics-based peptide identification, native mass spectrometry and hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry to show that pVIn is associated ...
Subgroup C adenoviruses, including serotypes 2 and 5, from which most therapeutic adenoviruses are derived, rely on CAR as the primary binding site on the host cell. This receptor has been shown to be crucial for sufficient virus uptake (22) . In cancer cells, however, CAR expression is frequently lost, especially in highly malignant cancer cell lines, leading to a significant decrease in adenovirus uptake (5 , 6) . Our own observations are in agreement with these reports: we frequently found reduced CAR expression at the cell surface in high-grade primary liver cancer and metastases of colorectal cancer. 4 This study investigates the molecular mechanisms involved in reducing CAR expression in cancer cells and explores the possibility of pharmacologically manipulating CAR expression levels.. Increasing evidence exists for a potential physiological role of CAR as a cell adhesion molecule. CAR forms homodimers, was found to physically interact with the tight-junction protein ZO-1, and participates ...

To delineate the function of adenovirus early region 4 (E4) gene products, we constructed a set of mutant viruses which carry defined lesions within this coding region. Deletion and insertion mutations within six of seven known E4 coding regions had no measurable effect on virus growth in cultured cells. A variant carrying a deletion within the last coding region (encoding a 34,000-molecular-weight polypeptide) was modestly defective, and a mutant lacking the majority of the E4 region was severely defective for growth. The phenotypes of the two defective mutants are similar and complex. Both display perturbations in DNA replication, translation of the E2A mRNA, accumulation of late viral mRNAs, and host cell shutoff. ...
86 PCR positive samples were inoculated onto Hep-2 cell for virus isolation, and 23 HAdV strains were isolated through 7-21 days post-inoculation, with isolation rate of 26.74%, which was close to that of 21.43% in the previous study (Thounaojam et al. 2016). The hexon gene sequence has widely been used for the classification of adenovirus types. In this study, the hexon gene of the 23 HAdV isolates was amplified and sequenced using primer designed by Sarantis et al. (Sarantis et al. 2004) (Forward primer: 5′-CTGATGTACTACAACAGCACTGGCAACATGGG-3′, Reverse primer: 5′-GCGTTGCGGTGGTGGTTAAATGGGTTTACGTTGTCCAT-3′, the amplicon length is 580-605 bp), and the nucleotide sequences were submitted to GenBank (accession numbers MN389388-MN389410). Molecular typing assignments were based on the identity of the closest matching sequences after both BLAST and phylogenetic analysis. Results showed that 9 of the 23 HAdV isolates (8 HAdV-3 and 1 HAdV-7) belonged to species B and 12 of the 23 (5 HAdV-1 and 7 ...
The information presented here serves as a brief introduction to adenovirus, recombinant adenovirus, and their advantages over alternative viral vectors.
The 293 cell line was derived from primary cultures of human embryonic kidney (HEK) cells with sheared fragments of adenovirus (Ad) 5 DNA (Graham et al. 1977). HEK 293 cells contain the nucleotides 1-4344 of Ad5 which are located within the pregnancy-specific ß-1-glycoprotein 4 (PSG 4) gene. The transforming region of the human adenovirus contains the early region (E1), comprising two transcription units, E1a and E1b, whose products are essential and sufficient for mammalian cell transformation by adenoviruses (Louis et al. 1997). Because 293 cells express E1 gene products they are extensively used for the production of E1-deleted Ad viruses. Adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) belong to the family of Parvoviridae, being one of the smallest single-stranded and non-enveloped DNA viruses. AAVss are replication-deficient and have required co-infection with a helper adeno- or herpes virus for productive infection. The AAV Helper-free system takes advantage of the identification of the specific ...

Human adenoviruses (HAdVs) often cause mild respiratory infections. These infections, however, can potentially become fatal in immunosuppressive patients. Unfortunately, there has been no specific anti-HAdV drug approved for treatment of HAdV infections. In this study, a time-course transcriptome of HAdV-infected human lung epithelial cells (A549 cells) was performed and compared with perturbation datasets of 890 drug-treated A549 cells from the library of integrated network-based cellular signatures (LINCS) database to predict previously unknown therapeutic drug-HAdV relationships using a characteristic direction (CD) algorithm. We performed experiments to validate a prediction for the anti-diabetic drug rosiglitazone as a candidate drug for treatment of anti-HAdV both in vivo and in vitro. The Type I interferon (IFNs) signaling pathway was negatively regulated during the course of HAdV infection and rosiglitazone increased STAT1 phosphorylation for antiviral IFN response induction. Taken ...

Abstract Background Viruses bind to specific cellular receptors in order to infect their hosts. The specific receptors a virus uses are important factors in determining host range, cellular tropism, and pathogenesis. For adenovirus, the existing model of entry requires two receptor interactions. First, the viral fiber protein binds Coxsackie and Adenovirus Receptor (CAR), its primary cellular receptor, which docks the virus to the cell surface. Next, viral penton base engages cellular integrins, coreceptors thought to be required exclusively for internalization and not contributing to binding. However, a number of studies reporting data which conflicts with this simple model have been published. These observations have led us to question the proposed two-step model for adenovirus infection. Results In this study we report that cells which express little to no CAR can be efficiently transduced by adenovirus. Using competition experiments between whole virus and soluble viral fiber protein or ...

The proteins are involved in both positive and negative regulation of expression in viral and cellular genes, and also affect the stability of viral mRNA. Some are also involved in oncogenic transformation.
