Abstract

The functional properties of the nonstructural 2A protein are variable among different picornaviruses. The 2A protein of the human parechovirus 1 (HPEV1) has been shown to lack the proteolytic activity found in many other picornaviruses, but no particular function has been identified for HPEV1 2A. To obtain information about the role of HPEV1 2A in the viral life cycle, the protein was expressed in Escherichia coli. A polyclonal antibody was then raised against the protein and employed to investigate its subcellular localization in the infected cells by immunofluorescence microscopy. Typically, a diffuse cytoplasmic staining pattern, concentrated to the perinuclear area, was observed in the infected cells. However, at late stages of infection some infected cells also exhibited diffuse nuclear staining. Viral RNA, visualized by fluorescent in situ hybridization, partly colocalized with 2A in the perinuclear region. Three experimental approaches including Northwestern blot, UV cross-linking, and gel retardation demonstrated that 2A possesses RNA binding activity. Competition experiments with various single-stranded RNA molecules addressed the specificity of 2A binding. These studies revealed that the 2A protein bound RNA correspo...Continue Reading
