Structural highlights
FunctionPOLG_EC11G Capsid proteins VP1, VP2, VP3 and VP4 form a closed capsid enclosing the viral positive strand RNA genome. VP4 lies on the inner surface of the protein shell formed by VP1, VP2 and VP3. All the three latter proteins contain a beta-sheet structure called beta-barrel jelly roll. Together they form an icosahedral capsid (T=3) composed of 60 copies of each VP1, VP2, and VP3, with a diameter of approximately 300 Angstroms. VP1 is situated at the 12 fivefold axes, whereas VP2 and VP3 are located at the quasi-sixfold axes (By similarity). Capsid proteins interact with host CD55 to provide virion attachment to target cell. VP0 precursor is a component of immature procapsids (By similarity). Protein 2A is a cysteine protease that is responsible for the cleavage between the P1 and P2 regions. It cleaves the host translation initiation factor EIF4G1, in order to shut down the capped cellular mRNA transcription (By similarity). Protein 2B affects membrane integrity and cause an increase in membrane permeability (By similarity). Protein 2C associates with and induces structural rearrangements of intracellular membranes. It displays RNA-binding, nucleotide binding and NTPase activities (By similarity). Protein 3A, via its hydrophobic domain, serves as membrane anchor. It also inhibits endoplasmic reticulum-to-Golgi transport (By similarity). Protein 3C is a cysteine protease that generates mature viral proteins from the precursor polyprotein. In addition to its proteolytic activity, it binds to viral RNA, and thus influences viral genome replication. RNA and substrate bind co-operatively to the protease (By similarity). RNA-directed RNA polymerase 3D-POL replicates genomic and antigenomic RNA by recognizing replications specific signals (By similarity). Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedMany enteroviruses bind to the complement control protein decay-accelerating factor (DAF) to facilitate cell entry. We present here a structure for echovirus (EV) type 12 bound to DAF using cryo-negative stain transmission electron microscopy and three-dimensional image reconstruction to 16-A resolution, which we interpreted using the atomic structures of EV11 and DAF. DAF binds to a hypervariable region of the capsid close to the 2-fold symmetry axes in an interaction that involves mostly the short consensus repeat 3 domain of DAF and the capsid protein VP2. A bulge in the density for the short consensus repeat 3 domain suggests that a loop at residues 174-180 rearranges to prevent steric collision between closely packed molecules at the 2-fold symmetry axes. Detailed analysis of receptor interactions between a variety of echoviruses and DAF using surface plasmon resonance and comparison of this structure (and our previous work; Bhella, D., Goodfellow, I. G., Roversi, P., Pettigrew, D., Chaudhry, Y., Evans, D. J., and Lea, S. M. (2004) J. Biol. Chem. 279, 8325-8332) with reconstructions published for EV7 bound to DAF support major differences in receptor recognition among these viruses. However, comparison of the electron density for the two virus.receptor complexes (rather than comparisons of the pseudo-atomic models derived from fitting the coordinates into these densities) suggests that the dramatic differences in interaction affinities/specificities may arise from relatively subtle structural differences rather than from large-scale repositioning of the receptor with respect to the virus surface.
