== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/F1T146_HED68 F1T146_HED68] Acts as a primer for viral RNA replication and remains covalently bound to viral genomic RNA. VPg is uridylylated prior to priming replication into VPg-pUpU (By similarity). The oriI viral genomic sequence may act as a template for this. The VPg-pUpU is then used as primer on the genomic RNA poly(A) by the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase to replicate the viral genome (By similarity). Following genome release from the infecting virion in the cytoplasm, the VPg-RNA linkage is probably removed by host TDP2 (By similarity). During the late stage of the replication cycle, host TDP2 is excluded from sites of viral RNA synthesis and encapsidation, allowing for the generation of progeny virions.[ARBA:ARBA00024846]  Capsid protein VP0: Component of immature procapsids, which is cleaved into capsid proteins VP4 and VP2 after maturation. Allows the capsid to remain inactive before the maturation step.[RuleBase:RU364118]  Capsid protein VP1: Forms an icosahedral capsid of pseudo T=3 symmetry with capsid proteins VP2 and VP3. The capsid is 300 Angstroms in diameter, composed of 60 copies of each capsid protein and enclosing the viral positive strand RNA genome. Capsid protein VP1 mainly forms the vertices of the capsid. Capsid protein VP1 interacts with host cell receptor to provide virion attachment to target host cells. This attachment induces virion internalization. Tyrosine kinases are probably involved in the entry process. After binding to its receptor, the capsid undergoes conformational changes. Capsid protein VP1 N-terminus (that contains an amphipathic alpha-helix) and capsid protein VP4 are externalized. Together, they shape a pore in the host membrane through which viral genome is translocated to host cell cytoplasm. After genome has been released, the channel shrinks.[RuleBase:RU364118]  Capsid protein VP2: Forms an icosahedral capsid of pseudo T=3 symmetry with capsid proteins VP2 and VP3. The capsid is 300 Angstroms in diameter, composed of 60 copies of each capsid protein and enclosing the viral positive strand RNA genome.[RuleBase:RU364118]  Capsid protein VP3: Forms an icosahedral capsid of pseudo T=3 symmetry with capsid proteins VP2 and VP3. The capsid is 300 Angstroms in diameter, composed of 60 copies of each capsid protein and enclosing the viral positive strand RNA genome.[RuleBase:RU364118]  Capsid protein VP4: Lies on the inner surface of the capsid shell. After binding to the host receptor, the capsid undergoes conformational changes. Capsid protein VP4 is released, Capsid protein VP1 N-terminus is externalized, and together, they shape a pore in the host membrane through which the viral genome is translocated into the host cell cytoplasm.[RuleBase:RU364118]  Component of immature procapsids, which is cleaved into capsid proteins VP4 and VP2 after maturation (By similarity). Allows the capsid to remain inactive before the maturation step.[ARBA:ARBA00025202]  Protease 2A: Cysteine protease that cleaves viral polyprotein and specific host proteins.[RuleBase:RU364118]  Protease 3C: Major viral protease that mediates proteolytic processing of the polyprotein. Cleaves host EIF5B, contributing to host translation shutoff. Cleaves also host PABPC1, contributing to host translation shutoff.[RuleBase:RU364118]  Protein 2B: Plays an essential role in the virus replication cycle by acting as a viroporin. Creates a pore in the host reticulum endoplasmic and as a consequence releases Ca2+ in the cytoplasm of infected cell. In turn, high levels of cytoplasmic calcium may trigger membrane trafficking and transport of viral ER-associated proteins to viroplasms, sites of viral genome replication.[RuleBase:RU364118]  Protein 2C: Induces and associates with structural rearrangements of intracellular membranes. Displays RNA-binding, nucleotide binding and NTPase activities. May play a role in virion morphogenesis and viral RNA encapsidation by interacting with the capsid protein VP3.[RuleBase:RU364118]  Protein 3A: Localizes the viral replication complex to the surface of membranous vesicles. It inhibits host cell endoplasmic reticulum-to-Golgi apparatus transport and causes the disassembly of the Golgi complex, possibly through GBF1 interaction. This would result in depletion of MHC, trail receptors and IFN receptors at the host cell surface.[RuleBase:RU364118]  Protein 3AB: Localizes the viral replication complex to the surface of membranous vesicles. Together with protein 3CD binds the Cis-Active RNA Element (CRE) which is involved in RNA synthesis initiation. Acts as a cofactor to stimulate the activity of 3D polymerase, maybe through a nucleid acid chaperone activity.[RuleBase:RU364118]  Protein 3CD: Involved in the viral replication complex and viral polypeptide maturation. It exhibits protease activity with a specificity and catalytic efficiency that is different from protease 3C. Protein 3CD lacks polymerase activity. Protein 3CD binds to the 5'UTR of the viral genome.[RuleBase:RU364118]  RNA-directed RNA polymerase: Replicates the viral genomic RNA on the surface of intracellular membranes. May form linear arrays of subunits that propagate along a strong head-to-tail interaction called interface-I. Covalently attaches UMP to a tyrosine of VPg, which is used to prime RNA synthesis. The positive stranded RNA genome is first replicated at virus induced membranous vesicles, creating a dsRNA genomic replication form. This dsRNA is then used as template to synthesize positive stranded RNA genomes. ss(+)RNA genomes are either translated, replicated or encapsidated.[RuleBase:RU364118]  Viral protein genome-linked: acts as a primer for viral RNA replication and remains covalently bound to viral genomic RNA. VPg is uridylylated prior to priming replication into VPg-pUpU. The oriI viral genomic sequence may act as a template for this. The VPg-pUpU is then used as primer on the genomic RNA poly(A) by the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase to replicate the viral genome.[RuleBase:RU364118]

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) is one of the many nonpolio enteroviruses that cause mild to severe respiratory illness. The nonstructural protein 3D(pol) is an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP) of EV-D68 which plays a critical role in the replication of the viral genome and represents a promising drug target. Here, we report the first three-dimensional crystal structure of the RdRP from EV-D68 in complex with the substrate GTP to 2.3-A resolution. The RdRP structure is similar to structures of other viral RdRPs, where the three domains, termed the palm, fingers, and thumb, form a structure resembling a cupped right hand. Particularly, an N-terminal fragment (Gly1 to Phe30) bridges the fingers and the thumb domains, which accounts for the enhanced stability of the full-length enzyme over the truncation mutant, as assessed by our thermal shift assays and the dynamic light scattering studies. Additionally, the GTP molecule bound proximal to the active site interacts with both the palm and fingers domains to stabilize the core structure of 3D(pol) Interestingly, using limited proteolysis assays, we found that different nucleoside triphosphates (NTPs) stabilize the polymerase structure by various degrees, with GTP and CTP being the most and least stabilizing nucleosides, respectively. Lastly, we derived a model of the core structure of 3D(pol) stabilized by GTP, according to our proteolytic studies. The biochemical and biophysical characterizations conducted in this study help us to understand the stability of EV-D68-3D(pol), which may extend to other RdRPs as well.IMPORTANCE Enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) is an emerging viral pathogen, which caused sporadic infections around the world. In recent years, epidemiology studies have reported an increasing number of patients with respiratory diseases globally due to the EV-D68 infection. Moreover, the infection has been associated with acute flaccid paralysis and cranial nerve dysfunction in children. However, there are no vaccines and antiviral treatments specifically targeting the virus to date. In this study, we solved the crystal structure of the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase of EV-D68 and carried out systematic biophysical and biochemical characterizations on the overall and local structural stability of the wild-type (WT) enzyme and several variants, which yields a clear view on the structure-activity relationship of the EV-D68 RNA polymerase.
