25Using the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) from poliovirus (PV) as our model system, we 26 have shown that Lys-359 in motif-D functions as a general acid in the mechanism of nucleotidyl 27 transfer. A K359H (KH) RdRp derivative is slow and faithful relative to wild-type enzyme. In the 28 context of the virus, RdRp-coding sequence evolves, selecting for the following substitutions: I331F 29 (IF, motif-C) and P356S (PS, motif-D). We have evaluated IF-KH, PS-KH, and IF-PS-KH viruses and 30 enzymes. The speed and fidelity of each double mutant are equivalent. Each exhibits a unique 31 recombination phenotype, with IF-KH being competent for copy-choice recombination and PS-KH 32 being competent for forced-copy-choice recombination. Although the IF-PS-KH RdRp exhibits 33 biochemical properties within twofold of wild type, the virus is impaired substantially for 34 recombination in cells. We conclude that there are biochemical properties of the RdRp in addition to 35 speed and fidelity that determine the mechanism and efficiency of recombination. The interwoven 36 nature of speed, fidelity, the undefined property suggested here, and recombination makes it impossible 37 to attribute a single property of the RdRp to fitness. However, the derivatives described here may 38 permit elucidation of the importance of recombination on the fitness of the viral population in a 39 background of constant polymerase speed and fidelity.40 41 Significance 42The availability of a "universal" method to create attenuated viruses for use as vaccine strains would 43 permit a rapid response to outbreaks of newly emerging viruses. Targeting RdRp fidelity has emerged 44 as such a universal approach. However, because polymerase fidelity and speed are inextricably linked, 45 the effort to attribute the attenuated phenotype to a single biochemical property of the RdRp may be 46 futile. Here, we show that this circumstance is even more complex. We provide evidence for the 47 existence of a biochemical parameter that combines with fidelity and speed to govern the mechanism 48 .

“…Thereafter, growth of each virus was far more distinct than observed for the replicon, with PS-KH PV much slower than IF-KH PV and IF-PS-KH PV was substantially faster than both double mutants ( Figure 2A). The differences in outcome could reflect the differences in replication efficiency and/or a direct consequence of the substitutions in 3D-coding sequence on virus assembly or spread caused by changes to 3CD protein or 3D-containing precursor protein [29,42]. After a productive infection, the exponential phase of genome replication by PV typically occurs between 2 and 6 h post-infection, with virus assembly occurring between 4 and 8 h post-infection.…”

However, the derivatives described here may permit elucidation of the importance of recombination on the fitness of the viral population in a background of constant polymerase speed and fidelity.broad-spectrum therapeutics [2-4] and a target for function/mechanism-based strategies for viral attenuation [5-10]. One function/mechanism of the RdRp that has been targeted most is that required for faithful incorporation of nucleotides [5][6][7][8][9][10]. Changing RdRp fidelity decreases or increases the genetic variation of the viral population, which, in turn, decreases fitness and virulence of the viral population [11][12][13][14][15][16].Known RdRp variants exhibiting a high-fidelity phenotype can also exhibit a reduced speed of nucleotide incorporation, at least at the biochemical level [17]. Replication speed is also a determinant of viral fitness and virulence [18]. So, is it the increased fidelity or decreased speed of nucleotide addition that gives rise to the attenuated phenotype? Further complicating the fidelity-versus-speed question are the recent observations that changes to fidelity also have consequence for the efficiency of recombination [19][20][21][22][23][24]. Increased RdRp fidelity decreases recombination efficiency and vice versa [19][20][21][22][23][24]. It will likely be impossible to attribute a single biochemical property of the RdRp to biological outcome.The most extensively studied PV fidelity mutants encode RdRps with amino acid substitutions at sites remote from the active site. Constructing equivalent substitutions conferring equivalent phenotypes in RdRps other than PV is difficult if not impossible. Our laboratory has therefore pursued active-site-based strategies to manipulate the fidelity, speed, and/or recombination efficiency of the RdRp [25]. We have shown that a lysine (Lys-359 in PV) present in ...

“…It was further shown that PC was specifically enriched at the sites of BMV replication (25). PC enrichment at the sites of viral replication was also present in HCV-and poliovirus-infected cells, indicating a conserved feature among a group of (ϩ)RNA viruses (25,40). In yeast cells, Cho2p (choline-requiring 2), a phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) methyltransferase (PEMT) that converts PE to monomethyl PE (PMME) (41), is recruited to viral replication sites by an interaction with BMV 1a (25).…”
