摘要/描述

It is emerging that enveloped viruses may adopt a unique entry/fusion mechanism; in paramyxoviruses, including Sendai virus (SeV), the attachment protein HN (or its homologue Hor G) binds a cellular receptor which triggers conformational changes of its fusion protein, F. There are at least three conformations of the F protein in the current fusion model: the pre-fusion native conformation, the prehairpin intermediate conformation and the post-fusion coiled-coil conformation. The fusion mechanism of SeV, a member of the Paramyxoviridae family, has been well established and several structural and functional domains or modules have been proposed from studies of its Fprotein. However, biochemical and biophysical studies of the heptad-repeat (HR) regions (HR1 and HR2) have not been systematically carried out. HR1 and HR2 strongly interact with each other to form a stable six-helix coiled-coil bundle as the postfusion conformation. In this study, a single-chain HR1
