severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus SARS CoV is responsible for receptor binding and membrane fusion It contains a highly conserved transmembrane domain that consists of three parts an N terminal tryptophan rich domain a central domain and a cysteine rich C terminal domain The cytoplasmic tail of S has previously been shown to be required for assembly Here the roles of the transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains of S in the infectivity and membrane fusion activity of SARS CoV have been studied SARS CoV S pseudotyped retrovirus SARSpp was used to measure S mediated infectivity In addition the cell cell fusion activity of S was monitored by a Renilla luciferase based cell cell fusion assay SVSV Cyt an S chimera with a cytoplasmic tail derived from vesicular stomatitis virus G protein VSV G and SMHV TMDCyt an S chimera with the cytoplasmic and transmembrane domains of mouse hepatitis virus displayed wild type like activity in both assays SVSV TMDCyt a chimera with the cytoplasmic and transmembrane domains of VSV G was impaired in the SARSpp and cell cell fusion assays showing 3 to 25 activity compared to the wild type depending on the assay and the cells used Examination of the oligomeric state of the chimeric S proteins in SARSpp revealed that SVSV TMDCyt trimers were less stable than wild type S trimers possibly explaining the lowered fusogenicity and infectivity In the winter of 2002 to 2003 a new type of pneumonia severe acute respiratory syndrome SARS emerged in Guangdong province China The etiological agent causing this disease was found to be an unknown coronavirus which was named SARS coronavirus SARS CoV 10 18 23 30 Among the structural proteins of SARS CoV the spike S protein is the largest comprising 1 255 amino acids Research on SARS and other coronavirus S proteins has shown that S is involved in receptor binding and membrane fusion and is a major determinant of the immune response and pathogenesis 12 The spike protein is a type I membrane protein and is anchored in the membrane of the virion Peplomers oligomers of two or three spike proteins 9 form the distinctive co rona on the virus The main receptor for SARS CoV has been identified as angiotensin converting enzyme 2 ACE 2 20 ACE 2 is ex pressed in several tissues among which are epithelia in the lung and small intestine 15 It has been shown that amino acids 318 to 510 of SARS CoV S are sufficient to bind to ACE 2 1 44 45 L SIGN has been shown to function as an alternative receptor albeit with a significantly lower affinity than ACE 2 17 Another lectin DC SIGN has been impli cated in enhancement of infection by dendritic cell transfer a process earlier described for other viruses such as human im munodeficiency virus HIV and hepatitis C virus HCV 16 24 49 In most but not all coronaviruses S is cleaved during viral maturation by a host cell protease to create the subunits S1 and S2 11 40 It is unclear at this moment whether this type of cleavage of the SARS CoV spike protein occurs Recently however evidence has emerged showing that SARS S is cleaved during entry of the virus rather than during maturation Low pH dependent endosome resident cysteine proteases i e cathepsin L have been shown to be involved in SARS CoV entry by cleav age of S Specific inhibitors of cathepsin L block entry of SARS pseudotypes and also infection with SARS CoV 36 Coronavirus S proteins have been proposed to be class I viral membrane fusion proteins 4 Class I proteins contain a fusion peptide at or close to the N terminus of the integral membrane fragment of the spike protein consisting of about 20 hydro phobic amino acids that enters the target membrane to initiate fusion Furthermore the class I proteins contain two 4 3 hy drophobic heptad repeats HR 6 8 and often an aromatic rich domain within or close to the transmembrane domain TMD which anchors the protein in the viral membrane The S2 subunit of the spike protein contains two heptad repeats HR1 and HR2 with a high affinity for each other HR1 is located downstream of the internal putative fusion peptide and HR2 is located just upstream of the transmem brane domain see Fig 1a Upon onset of fusion a confor mational change takes place in the spike oligomer and the HRs form a so called six helix bundle three H9251 helices formed by HR1 and three antiparallel HR2 H9251 helices thus bringing the fusion peptide and the TMD of the spike protein in close proximity 4 This structure represents the postfusion con Corresponding author Mailing address Leiden

the virus and target membrane The trigger for this conformational change in the coronavirus spike protein is usually the interaction with the receptor 51 However initiation of the membrane fusion process of SARS CoV by low pH cannot be ruled out at this time 16 49 It is not known what conformational changes are occurring within the S protein to acquire the six helix bundle Since the native structure of the whole S protein has not been solved yet in contrast to the HR1 HR2 complex 42 47 48 it remains unclear what other domains of S2 are involved in fusion It has however become clear that in contrast with other class I viral membrane fusion proteins the N terminus of coronavirus S2 is not the fusion peptide since it lacks the characteristic features described for fusion peptides Rather in coronaviruses the fusion peptide is an internal hydrophobic amino acid stretch Putative coronavirus fusion peptides have been proposed 4 based on hydrophobicity plots and on peptide studies 32 but no conclusive evidence has been presented to date which points out the fusion peptide of coronaviruses Besides the HRs and the fusion peptide another character istic feature of the coronavirus S2 subunit is the length of its TMD Although the exact borders of the TMD have never been experimentally identified we assume that the TMD is located between the two charged lysine residues at amino acid positions 1194 and 1227 see Fig 1b This means that the TMD would comprise 34 amino acids which is longer than necessary to cross the membrane Within the TMD there are three conserved distinctive domains an N terminal tryptophan Trp rich region a hydrophobic central region and a cysteine rich C terminal domain In this study we set out to investigate the role of the unusu ally long TMD and the cytoplasmic tail of the spike protein in the membrane fusion activity and infectivity of SARS CoV MATERIALS AND METHODS Cells and viruses 293T cells were obtained from the ATCC and cultured in

Frankfurt S protein and chime ras The SARS CoV strain Frankfurt S protein encoding sequence was cloned into phCMV yielding phCMV SWT In addition several chimeras were constructed to investigate the

protein VSV G counterpart In SVSV TMDCyt the transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains of SARS CoV S were replaced by the VSV G transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains In SMHV TMDCyt the transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains of SARS CoV S were replaced by the MHV A59 S transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains see Fig 1c First expression and maturation of wild type wt S and the S chimeras was studied After transfection of VeroE6R cells with the proper plasmids pulse chase labeling was carried out Cell lysates were subjected to immunoprecipitation with an S specific antibody and subsequent EndoH digestion to check the maturation At the start of the chase Fig 2a lanes 0 the majority of wt S and S chimeras was EndoH sensitive bands marked S Sens indicating that most of the S proteins had not passed the endoplasmic reticulum However a small portion of all S variants already had become EndoH resistant bands marked S Res during the 2 h pulse indicating that a fraction of S and the chimeras already was transported to the Golgi com plex or further downstream the exocytosis route compare lanes H11002 and H11001 EndoH After a 7 h chase the majority of S and the chimeras had become EndoH
