Abstract
Spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) is a fierce pathogen causing high mortality in the common carp. The glycoprotein (G protein) of SVCV is a pivotal component of the viral structure, located in the surface of the virion, and plays a key role in viral endocytosis. In this study, tandem affinity purification (TAP) followed by mass spectrometry analysis (LC-MS/MS) was carried out to search for novel host molecules that interact with SVCV G protein and a 14-3-3β/α-A protein was identified. The level of 14-3-3β/α-A mRNA expression was dramatically down regulated by SVCV infection. Furthermore, over expression of 14-3-3β/α-A results in a significantly increased SVCV attachment and entry in FHM cells. This study reveals an important role of 14-3-3 protein in regulating the early stage of SVCV infection, which offers a potential target for development of anti-SVCV therapies.
