The E5 proteins are short transmembrane proteins encoded by many animal and human papillomaviruses. These proteins display transforming activity in cultured cells and animals, and they presumably also play a role in the productive virus life cycle. The E5 proteins are thought to act by modulating the activity of cellular proteins. Here, we describe the biological activities of the best-studied E5 proteins and discuss the evidence implicating specific protein targets and pathways in mediating these activities. The primary target of the 44-amino acid BPV1 E5 protein is the PDGF β receptor, whereas the EGF receptor appears to be an important target of the 83-amino acid HPV16 E5 protein. Both E5 proteins also bind to the vacuolar ATPase and affect MHC class I expression and cell-cell communication. Continued studies of the E5 proteins will elucidate important aspects of transmembrane protein-protein interactions, cellular signal transduction, cell biology, virus replication, and tumorigenesis.
E5 蛋白是许多动物和人乳头瘤病毒编码的短跨膜蛋白。这些蛋白在培养细胞和动物中具有转化活性,它们可能也在病毒的复制周期中发挥作用。E5 蛋白被认为通过调节细胞蛋白的活性起作用。本文描述了研究最充分的 E5 蛋白的生物学活性,并讨论了将特定蛋白靶标和途径牵涉到这些活性的证据。BPV1 E5 蛋白的 44 个氨基酸主要靶标是 PDGFβ 受体,而 HPV16 E5 蛋白的 83 个氨基酸似乎是 EGF 受体的重要靶标。两种 E5 蛋白还与液泡型 ATP 酶结合,并影响 MHC Ⅰ类的表达和细胞间通讯。对 E5 蛋白的进一步研究将阐明跨膜蛋白-蛋白相互作用、细胞信号转导、细胞生物学、病毒复制和肿瘤发生的重要方面。
