Disease relevance of Baculoviridae

  • The vaccinia IL-1 beta receptor is secreted when expressed in a baculovirus system and competitively inhibited binding of IL-1 beta to the natural receptor on T cells [1].
  • The predicted amino acid sequence of a newly identified gene of the insect baculovirus Autographa californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus was similar to several uridine 5'-diphosphate (UDP)-glucuronosyl transferases and at least one UDP-glucosyl transferase [2].
  • Absorption of pathogenic autoantibodies by the extracellular domain of pemphigus vulgaris antigen (Dsg3) produced by baculovirus [3].
  • METHODS: We used a human CD1d (hCD1d) tetramer produced by a baculovirus expressing recombinant CD1d protein complexed with alpha-galactosylceramide (alpha-GalCer) and quantitated hCD1d tetramer reactive cells in blood and liver from controls and patients with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) [4].
  • It was recently shown that co-expression of adenovirus type 3 (Ad3) penton base and fibre in the baculovirus system produces dodecahedral particles, as does the expression of the penton base alone [5].

High impact information on Baculoviridae

  • IAP death-preventing activity localizes to the N-terminal baculovirus IAP repeats, a motif found in both viral and cellular proteins associated with death prevention [7].
  • Ubiquitin is attached to membranes of baculovirus particles by a novel type of phospholipid anchor [8].
  • We have expressed CFTR in Sf9 insect cells using the baculovirus expression vector system [9].
  • We have purified wild-type and tumor-derived mutant p53 proteins expressed from baculovirus vectors and examined their interactions with SV40 DNA [10].
  • When expressed in COS-1 cells or in a baculovirus system, the cDNA conferred TNF binding properties comparable to the native receptor [11].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Baculoviridae

  • The baculovirus fusogenic activity depends on the low pH conformation of virally-encoded trimeric glycoprotein, gp64 [12].
  • Recombinant baculoviruses were used to express wild-type serum response factor (SRF) and a mutant, SRF.CKIIA, which lacks all four serine residues in the major casein kinase II (CKII) site at residues 77-90 [13].
  • However, the N-glycosylation pathway of baculovirus-infected insect cells differs from the pathway found in higher eucaryotes, as indicated by the fact that glycoproteins produced in the baculovirus system typically lack complex biantennary N-linked oligosaccharide side chains containing penultimate galactose and terminal sialic acid residues [14].
  • In these experiments, we used the only candidate physiologic substrate identified as yet for c-Raf-1, mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MAPKK), to examine enzymatic characteristics and candidate modulators of c-Raf-1, c-Raf-1 was purified from Sf9 cells infected with recombinant baculovirus encoding a histidine-tagged c-Raf-1 [15].
  • The product of the baculovirus p35 gene is a specific inhibitor of a class of cysteine proteases termed caspases, and naturally functions in infected insects [16].
 

Biological context of Baculoviridae

 

Anatomical context of Baculoviridae

  • When infected with this recombinant baculovirus, the cell line Sf9, derived from the army-worm caterpillar S. frugiperda, expresses fully functional Shaker transient K+ currents, as assayed by whole-cell recording [21].
  • In this study, a CYP2A13 cDNA was prepared by RNA-PCR from human nasal mucosa and was translated using a baculovirus expression system [22].
  • To investigate the specific role of LBP in LPS activation of Kupffer cells, we produced a functional recombinant rat LBP using a baculovirus expression system, which we used to selectively examine the role of LBP's on Kupffer-cell function [23].
  • Based on specific steroid binding, insect cells infected with the recombinant baculovirus expressed 1-3 x 10(6) receptor molecules/cell which is 15-45 times more than that expressed normally in a hepatocyte [24].
  • Studies in this report investigated potential hemopoietic suppressive effects of human monokine induced by IFN-gamma (HuMig), a CXC chemokine that is chemotactic for activated lymphocytes. rHuMig was purified from Trichoplusia ni cells after infection with a recombinant baculovirus [25].
 

Gene context of Baculoviridae

  • A novel human CC chemokine complementary DNA was identified in a library constructed from human fetal RNA, cloned into a baculovirus vector, and expressed in Sf9 insect cells [26].
  • We have produced a soluble form of 4-1BBL using the baculovirus expression system [27].
  • Cleavage of c-IAP-1 or c-IAP-2 was not observed when interacting with the caspases, implying a different mechanism from the baculovirus p35 protein, the broad spectrum suicide inactivator of caspases [28].
  • Also, JAK2 was found to be constitutively associated with p95Vav in vivo when expressed at high levels in insect cells using baculovirus vectors [29].
  • Recombinant human RNPS1 expressed in baculovirus functionally synergizes with SR proteins and strongly activates splicing of both constitutively and alternatively spliced pre-mRNAs [30].
