An Endoplasmic Reticulum Retrieval Signal Partitions Human Foamy Virus Maturation to Intracytoplasmic Membranes

Abstract: Among all retroviruses, foamy viruses (FVs) are unique in that they regularly mature at intracytoplasmic membranes. The envelope glycoprotein of FV encodes an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) retrieval signal, the dilysine motif (KKXX), that functions to localize the human FV (HFV) glycoprotein to the ER. This study analyzed the function of the dilysine motif in the context of infectious molecular clones of HFV that encoded mutations in the dilysine motif. Electron microscopy (EM) demonstrated virion budding both in… Show more

“…This localization directs budding of these spumaviruses to intracellular membranes (Shaw et al, 2003). Although the dilysine motif of spumaviruses imposes a partial restriction on the site of viral maturation, it is not necessary for virion formation (Goepfert et al, 1999).…”

“…In contrast, we have found that PFV Env is absent from the pericentriolar assembly site, suggesting a separate subcellular compartment required for Gag–Env interaction. Previous work described an endoplasmic reticulum retention signal (ERRS) in the FV Env protein (19–21), a motif also found in the glycoprotein of HBV. It was therefore surprising to find that co‐localization of Gag and Env of PFV was not detected in ER or in late endosomes/MVB, but in the trans ‐Golgi network (TGN), suggesting a possible location for envelopment and/or budding of FV capsids.…”

“…The envelope glycoprotein from the retrovirus human foamy virus also contains a dilysine signal (15,16). This dilysine signal directs budding of this virus into intracellular compartments (14). Other types of targeting signals have been identified in envelope proteins of viruses that assemble at the ERGIC or Golgi, although the mechanism by which they work is not understood (reviewed in reference 21).…”
