Aminopeptidase N a Receptor for Several Group 1 Coronaviruses Identifies Key Determinants of Viral Host Range H17188 Sonia M Tusell 1 Stephanie A Schittone 2 and Kathryn V Holmes 1 2 Molecular Biology Program 1 and Microbiology Department 2 University of Colorado at Denver and Health Sciences Center Aurora Colorado 80045 Received 14 July 2006 Accepted 31 October 2006 Feline coronavirus FCoV porcine transmissible gastroenteritis coronavirus TGEV canine coronavirus CCoV and human coronavirus HCoV 229E which belong to the group 1 coronavirus use aminopeptidase N APN of their natural host and feline APN fAPN as receptors Using mouse feline APN chimeras we identified three small discontinuous regions amino acids aa 288 to 290 aa 732 to 746 called R1 and aa 764 to 788 called R2 in fAPN that determined the host ranges of these coronaviruses Blockade of infection with anti fAPN monoclonal antibody RG4 suggested that these three regions lie close together on the fAPN surface Different residues in fAPN were required for infection with each coronavirus HCoV 229E infection was blocked by an N glycosylation sequon present between aa 288 to 290 in murine APN TGEV required R1 of fAPN while FCoV and CCoV required both R1 and R2 for entry N740 and T742 in fAPN and the homologous R741 in human APN hAPN were key determinants of host range for FCoV TGEV and CCoV Residue N740 in fAPN was essential only for CCoV receptor activity A conservative T742V substitution or a T742R substi tution in fAPN destroyed receptor activity for the pig dog and cat coronaviruses while a T742S substitution retained these receptor activities Thus the hydroxyl on T742 is required for the coronavirus receptor activity of fAPN In hAPN an R741T substitution caused a gain of receptor activity for TGEV but not for FCoV or CCoV Therefore entry and host range of these group 1 coronaviruses depend on the ability of the viral spike glycoproteins to recognize small species specific amino acid differences in the APN proteins of different species Coronaviruses are important respiratory and enteric patho gens of humans and many animal species 32 40 58 Coro navirus phylogenetic groups 1 2a 2b and 3 differ in host range and pathogenicity 17 32 40 58 Group 1 contains two hu man coronaviruses HCoV 229E and HCoV NL63 that cause acute respiratory tract infections 4 6 56 60 and several important veterinary viruses in pigs porcine epidemic diar rhea virus and transmissible gastroenteritis coronavirus TGEV cause enteric disease and porcine respiratory coro navirus causes respiratory disease 25 26 feline coronavirus FCoV causes enteric or systemic disease in cats 10 27 42 57 and canine coronavirus CCoV causes enteric disease in dogs 44 Human feline canine and porcine group 1 coronaviruses cause transmissible disease within a single host species How ever experimental inoculation of several other species with these coronaviruses can result in viral replication seroconver sion and in some cases nontransmissible disease 2 3 63 64 For serial transmission to occur in a new host species the spike glycoproteins of group 1 coronaviruses need to adapt to their receptor in the new host species by mutation or recombination with another coronavirus that naturally infects the new host species An important determinant of coronavirus host range is the interaction of the H11011200 kDa viral spike S glycoprotein with a receptor glycoprotein on the surface of susceptible cells 18 30 41 49 Several coronavirus receptors have been identified Mouse hepatitis virus in phylogenetic group 2a uses murine carcinoembryonic cell adhesion molecule 1a as a receptor 14 15 62 Human angiotensin converting enzyme 2 hACE 2 is a receptor for severe acute respiratory syndrome SARS CoV in phylogenetic group 2b and HCoV NL63 in group 1 21 36 52 HCoV 229E TGEV FCoV and CCoV in group 1 use aminopeptidase N APN of their natural host species to enter cells 12 28 54 65 In cell culture human APN hAPN is a receptor for only HCoV 229E and porcine APN pAPN is a receptor for only TGEV 12 65 However feline APN fAPN is a receptor for not only FCoV but also HCoV 229E TGEV and CCoV 54 The purpose of this study was to identify key regions and residues in fAPN that determine the host range of these group 1 coronaviruses APN CD13 is a 150 to 160 kDa type II transmembrane glycoprotein expressed as a homodimer on the apical mem branes of epithelial cells in the respiratory and enteric tracts endothelial cells and kidney cells at synaptic junctions and on cells of the immune system monocytes dendritic cells and granulocytes 34 APN is a zinc dependent protease that cleaves N terminal amino acids from biologically active pep tides 34 The APN proteins from human mouse rat rabbit Corresponding author Mailing

region In hAPN domain IV includes aa 70 to 252 Domains V and VI aa 253 to 580 of hAPN contain the active site of the enzyme and a conserved zinc binding motif HELAH Domain VII aa 581 to 967 at the C terminus of hAPN is predicted to be mainly H9251 helical 51 Until the crystal structures for APN and group 1 coronavirus S glycoproteins are determined the identification of receptor determinants on APN that affect coronavirus host range de pends on the use of mutant and chimeric APN proteins Sev eral regions of APN that are important for entry of group 1 coronaviruses were previously identified using chimeras be tween APN proteins of different species 13 28 Human pig APN chimeras showed that aa 717 to 813 in domain VII of pAPN are essential for TGEV receptor activity 11 while aa 288 to 295 in domain V of hAPN are necessary for HCoV 229E receptor activity 29 The introduction into hAPN of a sequon encoding a potential N glycosylation sequon at aa 291 as found in pAPN abrogates HCoV 229E receptor activity 59 Regions in fAPN that are important for HCoV 229E TGEV and FCoV receptor activity were identified using pig feline and human feline APN chimeras Residues 670 to 840 in domain VII of fAPN are required for TGEV and FCoV re ceptor activity and aa 135 to 297 in domain V of fAPN are required for HCoV 229E receptor activity 19 29 In addi tion aa 643 to 841 in domain VII of canine APN in an hAPN backbone can mediate entry of CCoV TGEV and FCoV 5 In this study chimeras between fAPN and mouse APN mAPN which lacks coronavirus receptor activity were used to identify three small discontinuous regions in fAPN between aa 288 to 290 in domain V and aa 732 to 746 called R1 and aa 764 to 788 called R2 in domain VII that were critical determinants of coronavirus entry and host range Using mu tant APN proteins we identified single residues in fAPN and hAPN that are critical determinants of group 1 coronavirus host range and infection in vitro These results provide a model for the evolution and emergence of coronaviruses as they adapt to recognize species specific differences in the APN pro teins of different host species MATERIALS AND METHODS Cell lines and viruses

H1100340 for all APN constructs except for m fAPN containing aa 582 to 967 of fAPN in the mAPN backbone m fAPN 582 967 for which positive cells were counted in five fields at a magnification of H1100310 For each wild type or chimeric APN protein the number of cells positive for viral antigens in samples treated with the control MAb was set as 100 Samples 1262 TUSELL ET AL J VIROL on April 13 2015 by UCSF Library also data not shown suggesting that mAPN contains all the residues sufficient for HCoV 229E receptor activity but that an N linked glycan at N288 in mAPN may block HCoV 229E entry Two small regions of fAPN called R1 and R2 are required for FCoV and CCoV receptor activity but only R1 of fAPN is required for TGEV receptor activity To further characterize the region in fAPN between aa 704 to 831 that was required for group 1 animal coronavirus receptor activity Fig 2 we aligned the amino acid sequences of APN proteins from dif ferent species and identified residues in this region that were unique to fAPN and might therefore contribute to its receptor activity for the animal coronaviruses Fig 3 By comparing the amino acid sequences of APN proteins that have coronavirus receptor activity feline canine porcine and human APN proteins with sequences of APN proteins that have no known coronavirus receptor activity mouse rat rabbit and bovine APN proteins we identified two areas of high amino acid sequence variation aa 732 to 746 and aa 764 to 788 which we called R1 and R2 respectively Fig 3 Secondary structure predictions indicated that R1 is a loop or unstructured region containing several surface exposed residues N732 K739 N740 T742 and D743 The R2 region is predicted to be mainly H9251 helical with several surface exposed residues Fig 3 We identified a region called R3 aa 819 to 821 of fAPN which contained a potential N glycosylation sequon in canine mouse rabbit and human APN proteins but not in feline porcine rat or bovine APN proteins Fig 3 Since the amino acid sequences of the R1 and R2 regions are highly variable among APN proteins of different species and are predicted to contain surface exposed residues we an alyzed the roles of these regions in coronavirus receptor activ ity We also tested whether a potential N linked glycan at amino acid residue N819 in the R3 of mAPN could block entry of FCoV TGEV or CCoV The R1 R2 and R3 regions of mAPN were replaced with the corresponding fAPN regions All m fAPN chimeric proteins were expressed on the cell sur face of transfected cells Fig 4 Cells expressing the chimeric m fAPN proteins carrying the R1 R2 and R3 regions of fAPN m fAPN R1 R2 R3 or m fAPN R1 R2 were susceptible to infec tion with FCoV TGEV and CCoV Fig 4 Thus the R3 region of fAPN was not necessary for infection with these animal coronaviruses The m fAPN R1 chimeric protein had receptor activity for TGEV but not for FCoV or CCoV although this protein had less TGEV receptor activity than m fAPN R1 R2 Fig 4 and data not shown Therefore while R1 is sufficient for TGEV infection interactions with R2 may increase the efficiency of TGEV infection However the R2 region of fAPN alone in an mAPN backbone was not sufficient for entry of these pig cat and dog coronaviruses Fig 4 These experiments identified two small regions of 15 aa R1 and 25 aa R2 of fAPN in an mAPN backbone that were necessary and sufficient for FCoV and CCoV infection whereas only R1 of fAPN was sufficient for TGEV infection Asparagine 740 and threonine 742 in R1 of fAPN are im portant determinants of host range for FCoV TGEV and CCoV but not for HCoV 229E To identify specific residues in APN that determine the host ranges of FCoV TGEV and CCoV we substituted single amino acids in the R1 region of the chimeric m fAPN R1 R2 protein with the corresponding res idues from mAPN The mutant m fAPN R1 R2 proteins with the single amino acid substitution K739N D743N H744R or TABLE 2 Blockade of FCoV and HCoV 229E infection with

the human feline canine and porcine coronaviruses probably lie close together on the surface of the fAPN protein forming part of a large interface that contains the binding sites for RG4 MAb and for the spike glycoproteins of these four group 1 corona viruses Cocrystals between the receptor binding domains RBDs of the viral attachment proteins for herpes simplex virus human immunodeficiency virus
