dc.description.abstractThe leader protease (Lb(pro)) of foot-and-mouth disease virus frees itself during translation from the viral polyprotein by cleavage between its own C terminus and the N terminus of the subsequent protein, VP4. Lb(pro) also specifically cleaves the host proteins eukaryofic initiation factor (eIF) 4GI and 4GII, thus disabling host cell protein synthesis. We used NMR to study full-length Lb(pro) as well as a shortened species lacking six C-terminal amino acid residues (sLb(pro)) to examine the mechanism of self-processing, the quaternary structure and the substrate specificity. Both Lb(pro) forms have the same structure in solution as in the crystal. in the solution structure of sLb(pro), the 12 residue C-terminal extension was flexible and disordered. in contrast, the 18 residue C-terminal extension of full-length Lb(pro) was bound by the substrate-binding site of a neighbouring molecule, resulting in the formation of a stable dimer in solution. the Lbpro dimer could not be dissociated by increasing the ionic strength or by dilution. Furthermore, titration with model peptides mimicking the substrates destabilised the dimer interface without dissociating the dimer. the peptides were, however, bound by sLb(pro) in the canonical substrate binding site. Peptide binding gave rise to chemical shifts of residues around the sLb(pro) substrate binding site. Shifts of Asn146 and Glu147 indicated that these residues might form the enzyme's S1' site and interact with the P1' arginine residue of the eIF4GI cleavage site. Furthermore, differences in substrate specificity between sLb(pro) and Lb(pro) observed with an in vitro translated protein indicate some involvement of the C terminus in substrate recognition.
