Abstract The nonstructural protein 1 (A/NS1) of influenza A viruses (IAV) harbors several src homology (SH)-binding motifs (bm) that mediate interactions with cellular proteins. In contrast to the sequence variability of the second SH3bm, tyrosine 89, within the SH2bm is a highly conserved residue among IAV strains. This prompted us to evaluate the necessity of this SH2bm for IAV virulence. In an in vivo mouse model, we observed drastic reductions in weight loss, mortality, and virus titers in lung and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid after infection with the mutant virus PR8 A/NS1-Y89F (PR8 Y89F) when compared with wild-type virus (PR8 wt). Concomitantly, we observed decreased inflammation and less severe pathologic changes, reflecting reduced levels of virus titers. At histologic analysis, lungs infected with PR8 wt virus showed widespread destruction of the bronchiolar epithelium, with extensive distribution of virus antigen within tracheal, bronchial, bronchiolar, and alveolar epithelium. In marked contrast, the bronchiolar epithelium after infection with the mutant PR8 Y89F virus was entirely intact, and the severity and extent of viral infection was reduced and strongly restricted to alveoli. These findings demonstrate that change of a single residue of the highly conserved SH2bm within the A/NS1 results in restricted virus spread in mouse lung and strongly reduced virulence, which illustrates the necessity of the SH2bm for IAV-induced pathogenicity.

Note
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
