Abstract The molecular mechanisms associated with rabies virus (RV) virulence are not fully understood. In this study, the RV Flury low-egg-passage (LEP) and high-egg-passage (HEP) strains were used as models to explore the attenuation mechanism of RV. The results of our studies confirmed that the R333Q mutation in the glycoprotein (G(R333Q)) is crucial for the attenuation of Flury RV in mice. The R333Q mutation is stably maintained in the HEP genome background but not in the LEP genome background during replication in mouse brain tissue or cell culture. Further investigation using chimeric viruses revealed that the polymerase L gene determines the genetic stability of the G(R333Q) mutation during replication. Moreover, a recombinant RV containing the LEP G protein with the R333Q mutation and the HEP L gene showed significant attenuation, genetic stability, enhancement of apoptosis, and immunogenicity. These results indicate that attenuation of the RV Flury strain results from the coevolution of G and L elements and provide important information for the generation of safer and more effective modified live rabies vaccine.

Basic Characteristics of Mutations
  • Mutation Site: The specific location in a gene or protein sequence where a change occurs.
  • Mutation Level: The level at which a mutation occurs, including the nucleotide or amino acid level.
  • Mutation Type: The nature of the mutation, such as missense mutation, nonsense mutation, synonymous mutation, etc.
  • Gene/Protein/Region: Refers to the specific region of the virus where the mutation occurs. Including viral genes, viral proteins, or a specific viral genome region. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main
