Abstract

NS1 in flaviviruses is the only nonstructural protein that is secretory and interacts with different cellular components of the host cell membrane. NS1 is localized in the ER as a dimer to facilitate viral replication. Crystal structures of NS1 homologues from zika (ZIKV) and dengue (DENV) viruses have revealed the organization of different domains in NS1 dimers. The β-roll and the connector and intertwined loop regions of wing domains of NS1 have been shown to interact with the membranes. In this study, we have performed multiple molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of ZIKV and DENV NS1 systems in apo and in POPE bilayers with different cholesterol concentrations (0, 20 and 40%). The NS1 protein was placed just above the membrane surface, and for each NS1-membrane system two to three independent simulations with 600 ns production run were performed. At the end of the production runs, ZIKV NS1 inserts deeper inside the membrane compared to the DENV counterpart. Unlike ZIKV NS1, the orientation of DENV NS1 is asymmetric in which one of the chains in the dimer interacts with the membrane while the other is more exposed to the solvent. The β-roll region in ZIKV NS1 penetrates beyond the headgroup region and interacts with the lipid acyl chains while the C-terminal region barely interacts with the headgroup. Specific residues in the intertwined region deeply penetrate inside the membrane. The role of charged and aromatic residues of ZIKV NS1 in strongly interacting with the membrane components is revealed. The presence of cholesterol affects the extent of insertion in the membrane and interaction of individual residues. Overall, membrane-binding properties of ZIKV NS1 significantly differ from its counterpart in DENV. The differences found in the binding and insertion of NS1 can be used to design drugs and novel antibodies that can be flavivirus specific.

黄病毒非结构 1 (NS1) 蛋白膜结合特性的差异:寨卡病毒和登革热病毒 NS1 蛋白在显式双分子层中的比较模拟
黄病毒中的 NS1 是唯一具有分泌功能的非结构蛋白,可与宿主细胞膜上的不同细胞成分相互作用。NS1 以二聚体的形式定位于 ER 中,以促进病毒复制。来自寨卡(ZIKV)和登革热(DENV)病毒的NS1同源物的晶体结构揭示了NS1二聚体中不同结构域的组织结构。研究表明,NS1 的β-roll 和翼状结构域的连接器和交织环区域与膜相互作用。在本研究中,我们对 ZIKV 和 DENV NS1 系统在不同胆固醇浓度(0、20 和 40%)的 apo 和 POPE 双层膜中进行了多次分子动力学(MD)模拟。将 NS1 蛋白放置在膜表面的正上方,对每个 NS1 膜系统进行两到三次独立模拟,每次运行 600 毫微秒。在生产运行结束时,ZIKV NS1 与 DENV 相比插入膜内更深。与 ZIKV NS1 不同,DENV NS1 的取向是不对称的,二聚体中的一条链与膜相互作用,而另一条链则更多地暴露在溶剂中。ZIKV NS1 的 β-roll 区穿透头基区并与脂质酰基链相互作用,而 C 端区几乎不与头基区相互作用。交织区中的特定残基深入膜内部。揭示了 ZIKV NS1 的带电残基和芳香残基在与膜成分强烈相互作用中的作用。胆固醇的存在会影响插入膜的程度和单个残基的相互作用。总体而言,ZIKV NS1 的膜结合特性与 DENV 的膜结合特性有很大不同。NS1在结合和插入方面发现的差异可用于设计具有黄病毒特异性的药物和新型抗体。
