Kinesin-dependent movement on microtubules precedes actin-based motility of vaccinia virus

Abstract: Vaccinia virus, a close relative of the causative agent of smallpox, exploits actin polymerization to enhance its cell-to-cell spread. We show that actin-based motility of vaccinia is initiated only at the plasma membrane and remains associated with it. There must therefore be another form of cytoplasmic viral transport, from the cell centre, where the virus replicates, to the periphery. Video analysis reveals that GFP-labelled intracellular enveloped virus particles (IEVs) move from their perinuclear site of … Show more

“…Although capsid transport was targeted to the terminal ends of axons as expected, individual capsids moved bidirectionally, sometimes moving processively in the retrograde direction for prolonged periods. These findings stand in contrast to those reported for vaccinia virus where egress occurs by anterograde transport along microtubules without any retrograde motion (6,7). Therefore, the significance of bidirectional transport during herpesvirus egress was not immediately clear.…”

“…We speculate that viral gene products cleaved by HIV-1's protease may be responsible to induce activation of Arp2/3 complex because viral protease become active when viral particles are released from cells such that the cleaved proteins are present at high concentrations only in mature virus particles. VV encodes envelope protein A36R that binds adaptor proteins Nck, Wip, Grb2 that recruits and activates WASP-Arp2/3 complex system (Frischknecht et al, 1999;Rietdorf et al, 2001;Scaplehorn et al, 2002). These molecular interactions are known to be important for vaccinia virus to bud from infected cells as extracellular enveloped virus (EEV).…”

“…Intracellular enveloped Vaccinia virus particles move from their perinuclear assembly site to the plasma membrane along microtubules [58][59][60][61][62][63] . These particles fuse with the plasma membrane, but remain attached as cell-associated enveloped virus (CEV) 64 .…”
