摘要
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) non-structural protein 5A (NS5A) is involved both in the viral replication and particle production. Its third domain (NS5A-D3), although not absolutely required for replication, is a key determinant for the production and assembly of novel HCV particles. As a prerequisite to elucidate the precise functions of this domain, we report here the first molecular characterization of purified recombinant HCV NS5A-D3. Sequence analysis indicates that NS5A-D3 is mostly unstructured but that short structural elements may exist at its N-terminus. Gel filtration chromatography, circular dichroism and finally NMR spectroscopy all point out the natively unfolded nature of purified recombinant NS5A-D3. This lack of stable folding is thought to be essential for primary interactions of NS5A-D3 domain with other viral or host proteins, which could stabilize some specific conformations conferring new functional features.
