  • Beschreibung: Sialoglycan-binding enveloped viruses often possess receptor-destroying activity to avoid being immobilized by non-functional decoy receptors. Sialic acid (Sia)-binding paramyxoviruses contain a hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (HN) protein that possesses both Sia-binding and -cleavage activities. The multivalent, dynamic receptor interactions of paramyxovirus particles provide virion motility and are a key determinant of host tropism. However, such multivalent interactions have not been exhaustively analyzed, because such studies are complicated by the low affinity of the individual interactions and the requirement of high titer virus stocks. Moreover, the dynamics of multivalent particle-receptor interactions are difficult to predict from Michalis-Menten enzyme kinetics. Therefore, we here developed Ni-NTA nanoparticles that multivalently display recombinant soluble HN tetramers via their His tags (HN-NPs). Applying this HN-NP platform to Newcastle disease virus (NDV), we investigated using biolayer interferometry (BLI) the role of important HN residues in receptor-interactions and analyzed long-range effects between the catalytic site and the second Sia binding site (2SBS). The HN-NP system was also applicable to other paramyxoviruses. Comparative analysis of HN-NPs revealed and confirmed differences in dynamic receptor-interactions between type 1 human and murine parainfluenza viruses as well as of lab-adapted and clinical isolates of human parainfluenza virus type 3, which are likely to contribute to differences in tropism of these viruses. We propose this novel platform to be applicable to elucidate the dynamics of multivalent-receptor interactions important for host tropism and pathogenesis, particularly for difficult to grow sialoglycan-binding (paramyxo)viruses.
