Abstract

The application of fluorescent proteins as expression markers and protein fusion partners has provedimmensely valuable for resolving the organization of biological events in living cells. EGFP and DsRed2 arecommonly fluorescent marker protein which is used for biotechnology and cell biology research. The presentstudy was designed to identify the expression vector that suitable to ligate with DNA encoding HBV coreprotein for intracellular localization study in hepatocyte cell, which were expressed as fusion proteins. We alsocompared and quantified the expressed fluorescent protein which predominantly localized in the cellcompartment. The results indicated that DsRed2 shown as less than ideal for intracellular localization study ofthan EGFP, because of its tetrameric structure of the fluorescent protein and when fused to a protein of interest,the fusion protein often forms aggregates in the living cells. In contrast, EGFP fluorescent protein shown a muchhigher proportion of cytoplasmic localization, thus being more suitable for analysis of intracellular localizationthan DsRed2 fluorescent protein. EGFP fluorescent protein is also capable to produce a strong green fluorescencewhen excited by blue light, without any exogenously added substrate or cofactor, events inside living cell canthus be visualized in a non-invasive way. Based on our present quantitative data and some reasons above shownthat EGFP is more suitable than DsRed2 as a fluorescent marker protein for intracellular localization study intoHuH-7 cell.Keywords: EGFP, DsRed2 fluorescent protein , HuH-7 cell, HBV, intracellular localization

Abstract

Leptomycin B (LMB) was originally discovered as a potent anti-fungal antibiotic from Streptomyces species. The cellular target of LMB has been identified as the nuclear export receptor CRM-1 or exportin-1, which is involved in nuclear trafficking of cellular RNAs or proteins containing the nuclear export sequence (NES). CRM-1 is the main mediator of nuclear export in many cell types including hepatocyte cell lines. The ability of LMB to inhibit nuclear export has made it a useful tool in the study of the intracellular localization of manyregulatory proteins. In this study, we evaluated the effect of nuclear export inhibitor LMB treatment on the intracellular localization of HBV core protein into the hepatocyte cell lines, Huh-7 and HepG2 cells. We also reported the quantification of the distribution of EGFP-Core fusion protein with redundant core NLS as well as SV-40 NLS into cell compartments. Results shown that in Huh-7 cells treatment of LMB caused retention of EGFP-Core fusion protein into the nucleus, so increased the nuclear localization of EGFP-Core and all variants.In HepG2 cells, although not significantly, treatment of LMB increased a number of nuclear localization in all EGFP-Core constructions, even the nuclear localization in HepG2 cells is not so high as in Huh-7 cells.

Abstract

Bayer 41-4109 is heteroarylpyrimidine (HAP) which has been identified as potent of HBV capsid assemblyinhibitor. The present study was to study effect of Bayer 41-4109 treatment on the intracellular localization ofEGFP-Core fusion proteins into HepG2 cells. Three recombinant plasmids of pEGFP-Core with single, double andtriple NLS of HBV core (EGFP-Core 1C, 2C and 3C ) and two recombinant plasmids with single and triple NLS ofSV-40 (EGFP-Core 1 and 3 SV-40) were used in this work. After transient transfected into HepG2 cells and treatedwith Bayer 41-4109, the intracellular localization of expressed fusion proteins from all plasmid constructions weredetermined and quantified under confocal laser microscope. Results shown that Bayer 41-4109 treatment in HepG2cells inhibited the nuclear localization of EGFP-Core with single of triple HBV core NLS. As well as the constructionsof expressed fusion protein with single and triple SV-40 NLS (EGFP-Core 1 and 3 SV-40 NLS) showeddecreasing the nuclear localization after treated with Bayer 41-4109, even not as strong as EGFP-Core 1C and 3CNLS. Bayer 41-4109 has been identified as a potent inhibitors of HBV replication which has multiple effects on HBVcapsid assembly. It may inhibit virus replication by inducing assembly inappropriately and by misdirectingassembly decreasing the stability of normal capsids.Keywords: HBV capsid, Bayer 41-4109, EGFP-Core fusion protein, HepG2 cell

Abstract

protein is also including in the HBV genome targeting into the nucleus through modulating carboxyl residues byphosphorylation. Nuclear localication Signal (NLS) in HBV core protein is inside the virion structure and it must beunmasked in order to function, perhaps by phosphorylation. Phosphorylation of of HBV core protein in turn couldbegin to alter capsid conformation. Staurosporine is a natural product originally isolated from bacteriumStreptomyces staurosporeus. Staurosporine was discovered to have biological activities ranging from anti-fungal toanti-hypertensive. The interest in these activities resulted in a large investigative effort in chemistry and biology andthe discovery of the potential for anti-cancer treatment. The main biological activity of Staurosporine is the inhibitionof protein kinases through the prevention of ATP binding to the kinase. In the present study, we have studied theintracellular localization of EGFP-Core fusion protein with triple HBV core and SV-40 nuclear localization signal atits carboxyl terminal in presence and absence of Staurosporine. We also to study the effect of Staurosporine treatmenton the intracellular localization of EGFP-Core fusion protein in the hepatocyte cells line of HepG2 cell. Resultsshowed that effect of Staurosporine is prevent the nuclear localization of EGFP-Core fusion protein into nucleusthrough an inhibition of the phosphorylation of core protein. Stauroporine also prevents cell division so that passivetrapping of core protein is inhibited.

Abstract

HBV replicates within the nucleus of hepatocyte using cellular transport machinery for the import of their genomes into the nucleus. Genome of HBV has to transported through the cytoplasm towards the nuclear pore complex (NPC) followed by subsequent passage through the pore. HBV capsid is involved in a number of important functions in the replication cycle of HBV. It can be detected in the nucleus, cytoplasm or both within infected hepatocytes. Nuclear localization of HBV capsid protein, which is karyophilic, depends on the cell cycle. The objective of the present study was to analyzes the intracellular localization of HBV capsid protein after transfected by entire HBV genome into hepatocyte cell lines (HuH-7) and to determine the predominantly localization of the capsid into cell compartment. In this work we analysed the intracellular localization of the HBV capsid in human hepatocyte cell lines liuH-7 by transfection using entire HBV genome and transient expression. The transfected cells were fixed and an indirect immune staining against the HBV capsid was performed to detect the capsid. To verify the location within the cell, an additional co-staining against the nuclear pore complexes was performed. The Intracellular localization of the HBV capsid and NPC were analyzed by a confocal laser scan microscope. The observed of localizations into the transfected cells were classified to be predominantly as nuclear localization, cytoplasmic localization or distributed within both of these compartments. Result of this study indicated that Staining of HBV capsid found predominantly within the nucleus (71%). Less frequently, the HBV capsid localized within the cytoplasm (26%). Only in a minority of cases, the capsids were localized within cytoplasm and nucleus (3%). This low frequency indicate that the capsids were not diffusing within the cells being in accordance to the in vivo situation in which the nuclear membrane was impermeable for the capsid.
