Abstract

After ingestion of occlusion bodies, the occlusion-derived viruses (ODVs) of the baculoviruses establish the first round of infection within the larval host midgut cells. Several ODV envelope proteins, called infectivity factors (PIFs), have been shown to be essential for oral infection. Eight PIFs have been identified to date, including P74, PIFs 1–6 and Ac110. At least six PIFs, P74, PIFs 1–4 and PIF6, together with three other ODV-specific proteins, Ac5, P95 (Ac83) and Ac108, have been reported to form a complex on the ODV surface. In this study, in order to understand the interactions of these PIFs, the direct protein–protein interactions of the nine components of the multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus PIF complex were investigated using yeast two-hybrid (Y2H) screening combined with bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) assay. Six direct interactions, comprising PIF1–PIF2, PIF1–PIF3, PIF1–PIF4, PIF1–P95, PIF2–PIF3 and PIF3–PIF4, were identified in the Y2H analysis, and these results were further verified by BiFC. For P74, PIF6, Ac5 and Ac108, no direct interaction was identified. P95 (Ac83) was identified to interact with PIF1, and further Y2H analysis of the truncation and deletion mutants showed that the predicted P95 chitin-binding domain and amino acids 100–200 of PIF1 were responsible for P95 interaction with PIF1. Furthermore, a summary of the protein–protein interactions of PIFs reported so far, comprising 10 reciprocal interactions and two self-interactions, is presented, which will facilitate our understanding of the characteristics of the PIF complex.
