Embodiment 1

[0022] Example 1 Cellular colocalization of C19orf66 and Zika virus nonstructural protein NS3.

[0023] 1. Experimental method

[0024] 1. Cell transfection.

[0025] (1) Using hNPC as a cell model, 24 hours before transfection, inoculate an appropriate amount of cells on a circular cover slip treated with ultraviolet sterilization;

[0026] (2) Add 200 ng each of the plasmid pCEDF-C19orf66-myc with high expression of C19orf66 and the plasmid pCDEF-NS3-flag with high expression of NS3 into 25 μl Opti-MEM, add 1 μl of P3000TM, and mix gently;

[0027] (3) Add 2 μl LipofectamineTM 3000 reagent to 25 μl Opti-MEM, mix gently, and place at room temperature for 5 minutes;

[0028] (4) Mix the above (2) and (3) liquids, flick the tube wall to mix, and let stand at room temperature for 5 minutes;

[0029] (5) adding (4) into the culture medium of hNPC cells, and culturing in a 37°C incubator;

[0030] (6) Change the medium after 4 to 6 hours and continue culturing.

[0031] 2. Ce...

Embodiment 2

[0048] Example 2 Interaction between C19orf66 and Zika virus non-structural protein NS3.

[0049] 1. Experimental method

[0050] 1. Spread an appropriate amount of cells into a cell culture dish P100. After 24 hours, infect Zika virus (1 MOI). After 48 hours, the cells are used for co-immunoprecipitation, and the corresponding proteins are detected by Western blotting.

[0051] 2. The method of co-immunoprecipitation is as follows:

[0052] (1) Take out the treated cells, discard the original medium, and wash twice with pre-cooled 1×PBS;

[0053] (2) Add pre-cooled 6ml 1×PBS, scrape the cells from the culture dish, transfer the cell solution to a 15ml centrifuge tube, and centrifuge at 2000rpm 4°C for 5min;

[0054] (3) Discard the supernatant, add 500μl 1×IP lysis buffer (containing protease inhibitors) to the cell pellet, transfer the cell suspension to a 1.5ml centrifuge tube, place it on ice, shake it every 10min, Each time for 30s, maintain for 30min to ensure that th...

Embodiment 3

[0062] Example 3 Effect of C19orf66 on the content of Zika virus non-structural protein NS3 in cells.

[0063] 1. Experimental method

[0064] 1. The method of exogenous high expression is as described in Step 1 of Example 1. The amounts of the C19orf66 plasmid were 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, and 1 ug, respectively, the amount of the plasmid NS3-Flag was 2 ug, and the amounts of P3000TM and LipofectamineTM were changed accordingly.

[0065] 2. After 48 hours of transfection, the protein was collected, and the corresponding protein was detected by immunoblotting.

[0066] 3. The immunoblotting steps are the same as those in Example 2.

[0067] see results image 3 As shown, when the expression level of C19orf66 in cells increases, the content gradient of NS3 decreases, showing that C19orf66 promotes the degradation of Zika virus non-structural protein NS3.

Abstract

The invention discloses the application of antiviral protein C19orf66 as Zika virus non-structural protein NS3 inhibitor in antiviral drugs. The present invention provides a new application of the antiviral protein C19orf66 which efficiently targets the Zika virus non-structural protein NS3, promotes the degradation of the NS3 lysosomal pathway, and thereby inhibits the proliferation of the Zika virus in a host. This has opened up a new field of clinical application of humanized antiviral proteins in the field of antiviral prevention and treatment, thereby providing new ideas and directions for the development of drugs targeting the Zika virus non-structural protein NS3, and providing new insights into the development of anti-Zika virus drugs. Scientific basis, and provide new ideas for clinical antiviral treatment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of protein engineering, and more specifically relates to the application of antiviral protein C19orf66 as Zika virus non-structural protein NS3 inhibitor in antiviral drugs. Background technique [0002] Zika virus (ZIKV) belongs to the Flaviviridae family and is mainly transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes. In recent decades, mosquito-borne flaviviruses, including dengue virus (dengue virus, DENV), West Nile virus (WNV), yellow fever virus (yellow fever virus, YFV), and the recent epidemic of Zika Virus (Zika virus, ZIKV) has broken out a major outbreak and is prevalent in some parts of the world. At the end of 2013 or early 2014, Zika virus disease began to spread on a large scale in the Americas, especially Brazil. According to statistics in 2018, 84 countries and regions have reported cases of ZIKV infection. Although most people are infected with ZIKV, the main clinical symptoms are self-limited fever, ras...
