https://www.selleckchem.com/mTOR.html The entry/fusion complex (EFC) consists of eleven conserved proteins embedded in the membrane envelope of mature poxvirus particles. Poxviruses also encode proteins that localize in cell membranes and negatively regulate superinfection and syncytium formation. The vaccinia virus (VACV) A56/K2 fusion regulatory complex associates with the G9/A16 EFC subcomplex, but functional support for the importance of this interaction was lacking. Here we describe serially passaging VACV in non-permissive cells expressing A56/K2 as an unbiased approach to isolate and analyze escape mutants. Viruses forming large plaques in A56/K2 cells increased in successive rounds of infection indicating the occurrence and enrichment of adaptive mutations. Sequencing genomes of passaged and cloned viruses revealed mutations near the N-terminus of the G9 open-reading-frame but none in A16 or other genes. The most frequent mutation was His to Tyr at amino acid 44; additional escape mutants had a His to Arg mutation at amino acid 44 or a duer of the poxvirus family, also encodes fusion regulatory proteins A56 and K2 that are displayed on the plasma membrane and may be beneficial by preventing reinfection and cell-cell fusion. Previous studies showed that A56/K2 interacts with the G9/A16 EFC subcomplex in detergent-treated cell extracts. Functional evidence for the importance of this interaction was obtained by serially passaging wild-type VACV in cells that are non-permissive because of A56/K2 expression. VACV mutants with amino acid substitutions or duplications near the N-terminus of G9 were enriched because of their ability to overcome the block to entry imposed by A56/K2.
