8: Viral DNA replication Flashcards

1
Q

Which classes need viral DNA replication

A
  1. ssDNA: parvovirus
  2. dsDNA: adenovirus, HSV, papilloma
  • Delayed after infection
  • One protein to be synthesize

Q

Rules for viral DNA replication

A
  • DNA is synthesized by incorporation of dNMPS into 3-OH of DNA chain
  • Synthesized 5-3’
  • Replication starts at ORI
  • Catalyzed by host/viral DdDp
  • Primer-dependent (RNA/DNA/protein) or primer independent

Q

Where does DNA polymerase come from? How does polymerase build DNA?

A

-small genome: don’t encode for DdDp, use host DNA pol
eg. papillo, polyo, parvo

  • large genome: encode for their own replication system (herpes,adeno,pox)

Its builds DNA by two-metal (Mg) mechanism and two aspartic acid residues:
1.ion deprotonates 3’ OH group

  1. ion releases pyrophosphate (ppi)

Q

What proteins does viral DNA replication require?

A
  • At least one viral protein
    eg. polymerase, helicase, ligase, exonuclease,
  • Viruses with small genomes use host proteins
  • Viruses with larger genomes encode their own proteins

Q

What are the two mechanisms for viral DNA synthesis?

A
  1. Replication Fork (RNA primer)
    • papilloma, polyoma, herpes, retro
  2. Strand replacement (Protein/DNA primer)
    - adenovirus, parvovirus, poxvirus

After DNA synthesis RNA primers are removed and gaps are present at the end of the DNA strands

Q

SV40 (polyoma)

A
  • dscircular, ORI, bidirectional with replication fork (semi discontinuous)
  • presence of ATP, 6 large T bind sites around ORI, (protects AT and EP from DNase 1)
  • LT conformational changes to EP, unwind ORI (help = RP-A, Topo 1)
  • Polα- primase binds RP-A + LT -> RNA primer +DNA fragment ->
    RF-C + Pcna binds. -> Polα leaves and Polε binds (leading strand)
  • lagging strand: RNA primer/short DNA, Polδ synth, primers removed by RNAase H and exonuclease. gaps repaired by Polδ and DNA ligase

Q

Parvovirus (AAV2)

A

ssDNA, DNA hairpin (ITR) acts as a DNA primer

Strand displacement
Continuous replication

  1. Elongation dsDNA
  2. Rep 78/68 nicks for new 3’-OH
  3. Elongation from nick, copies 5’ ITR seq
  4. Ds replication seq.
  5. Hairpins reform
  6. displacement
  7. Repeats

Q

Adenovirus (Protein Priming)

A

(dsDNA, strand displacement, ORI + Terminal Protein)

  1. Pre initiation complex (viral pTP and DNA pol)
  2. Builds 3 bases, uses primer to displace (DBP coats)
  3. ITR to pTP-pol to cycle (cleave pTP = mature)

Q

HSV

A

2 OriS and 1OriL
(Host proteins Circularization)
- Replicates as a rolling circle (replication fork)

  1. Nick one strand
  2. Produces concatemers (long-multiple copies of genomes)
