摘要

Dengue virus (DEN), a single positively stranded RNA virus, is a family member of Flaviviridae; it uses the mosquito Aedes aegypti as its principle vector to cause what is known as Dengue fever. Its genome is approx 10.8-kb in size and has one open reading frame encoding three structural proteins: capsid (C), precursor of the membrane (prM) and envelope (E), as well as seven non-structural proteins from a single polypeptide. The immature DEN particles are assembled on the inner surface of the endoplasmic reticulum(ER) and budded into the lumen of the ER. The diameter of immature particle is approximately 60 nm and the envelope is composed of 60 trimers of prM-E heterodimers. The prM proteins are cleaved into M proteins by furin during their transportation through the trans-Golgi network (TGN), resulting in changes of both the conformation and arrangement of envelope proteins and yielding mature virus particles, the surface of which is compactly lined up with 90 E-E homodimers. The diameter of the mature virus shrinks to 50 nm. In order to get the virus particles of relatively homogeneous configuration, various methods have been employed during the preparation of virus culture. The addition of furin in acid culture can stimulate the yield of mature virus particles while adding NH_4Cl improves the yield of immature virus particles due to the inhibited cleavage of prM by furin. In this work, the DEN viruses were cultured and purified under neutral conditions without further addition of furin or NH_4Cl in order to study the possible conformational changes of DEN II.
