However,the exact role of p48 in the morphogenesis of ODVs remains unknown. In this study, we demonstrated that p48 was required for the efficient formation of intranuclear microvesicles. To further understand its functional role in intranuclear microvesicle formation, we characterized the distribution of the P48 protein, which was found to be associated with the nucleocapsid and envelope fractions of both budded virions and ODVs. In Ac MNPV-infected cells, P48 was predominantly localized to nucleocapsids in the virogenic stroma and the nucleocapsids enveloped in ODVs, with a limited but discernible distribution in the plasma membrane, nuclear envelope, intranuclear microvesicles, and ODV envelope. Furthermore,coimmunoprecipitation assays showed that among the viral proteins required for intranuclear microvesicle formation, P48 associated with Ac93 in the absence of viral infection.展开更多

In this study,the signal transduction events involved in the stimulation of monocytes with the membrane form of P48 (mP48) were investigated. Monocyte stimulation with mP48 was found to involve the mobilization of intracellular calcium (Ca2+)and the activation and translocation of PKC from the cy-tosol to the membrane. Membane P48 induced a rapid rise of intracellular Ca2+ in a dose dependent maner. Simi-larly the stimulation of monocytes with P48 was found to involve the activation and translocation of PKC. The translocation of PKC was rapid (within 0-5 min) yet tran-sient with PKC activity returning to control levels by 8 min. The functional role of protein kineses in P48 induced TNF secretion was studied using various kinese inhibitors. The PKC inhibitors, H-7 and sphingosine, were found to inhibit P48 induced TNF secretion with 50% inhibition at 5μM HA1004, which inhibts cyclic nucleotide-dependent kinase (PKA, Ki 1.2μM), did not inhibit TNF secretion. H-8 (PKA inhibitor) was found to be an effective inhibitor of TNF secretion only at high concentrations(30μp. The Calmodulin-dependent kinase inhibitor, W7 (Ki 12μM)was found to be effective at concentration above 5μM.These findings suggest that P48-triggered TNF secretion involves transmembrane Ca2+ signaling and the subse-quent activation of at least two protein kineses, PKC and CaMK.展开更多
