The role of phosphorylation in the dissociation of structural
components of the herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) tegument was
investigated, using an in vitro assay. Addition of physiological concentrations of ATP and magnesium to wild-type virions in the presence of detergent promoted the release of VP13/14 and VP22. VP1/2
and the UL13 protein kinase were not significantly solubilized. However, using a virus with an inactivated UL13 protein, we found that the release of VP22 was severely impaired. Addition of casein kinase II (CKII) to UL13 mutant virions promoted VP22 release. Heat
inactivation of virions or addition of phosphatase inhibited the
release of both proteins. Incorporation of radiolabeled ATP into the
assay demonstrated the phosphorylation of VP1/2, VP13/14, VP16, and VP22. Incubation of detergent-purified, heat-inactivated capsid-tegument with recombinant kinases showed VP1/2
phosphorylation by CKII, VP13/14 phosphorylation by CKII,
protein kinase A (PKA), and PKC, VP16 phosphorylation by PKA, and
VP22 phosphorylation by CKII and PKC. Proteolytic mapping and
phosphoamino acid analysis of phosphorylated VP22 correlated with
previously published work. The phosphorylation of virion-associated
VP13/14, VP16, and VP22 was demonstrated in cells infected in the
presence of cycloheximide. Use of equine herpesvirus 1 in the in vitro
release assay resulted in the enhanced release of VP10, the homolog of
HSV-1 VP13/14. These results suggest that the dissociation of major
tegument proteins from alphaherpesvirus virions in infected cells may
be initiated by phosphorylation events mediated by both
virion-associated and cellular kinases.
