Reaction
autocatalytically cleaves itself from the polyprotein of the foot-and-mouth disease virus by hydrolysis of a Lys-/-Gly bond, but then cleaves host cell initiation factor eIF-4G at bonds -Gly-/-Arg- and -Lys-/-Arg-

S484A
the mutation abrogates protease activity
C95K/C142L/C163A
-
the C-terminally truncated, catalytically inactive mutant has wild-type binding activity but remains soluble at purified protein concentrations in excess of 10 mg/ml
C95K/C142S/C163A
-
C-terminally truncated, catalytically inactive form of the type A10FMDV 3Cpro
H110L
-
active mutant, nearly as active as wild-type
L143A
self-processes efficiently at the L(pro)/VP4 cleavage site containing P2 phenylalanine, self-processing at the eIF4GII sequence Asp-Phe-Gly-Arg-Gln-Thr is improved but shows more-extensive aberrant processing
L143M
does not self-process efficiently at the L(pro)/VP4 cleavage site containing P2 phenylalanine
L200F
-
the mutant is impaired in but still allows self-processing
R647P/S648P
the mutant has full catalytic activity for nisin leader-peptide cleavage, although the C-terminal region of the enzyme is no longer cleaved
L200F
-
the mutant is impaired in activity but still allows self-processing
additional information
-
a mutant virus A12-LLV2 lacking the leader proteinase is attenuated in cell culture and susceptible animals due to the inability of the mutant virus to block the expression of type I interferon alpha/beta, the blockade results in the IFN-induced inhibition of FMDV replication, overview
additional information
-
mutation of the viral polyprotein self-processing cleavage site QRKLK*GAGQ, replacement by several variants of the two protein substrate elIF4G cleavage sites ANLG*RTTL and LNVG*SRRS, overview
additional information
leader proteinase self-processes inefficiently at the L(pro)/VP4 cleavage site Lys-Leu-Lys-Gly-Ala-Gly when the leucine at position P2 is replaced by phenylalanine: Molecular modeling and energy minimization identifies the L(pro) residue L143 as being responsible for this discrimination
additional information
-
Lpro regulates the activity of nuclear factor kappa B. Analysis of NF-kappa B-dependent reporter gene expression in BHK-21 cells (baby hamster kidney cells strain 21), demonstrate that infection with wild-type virus has an inhibitory effect compared to infection with a genetically engineered mutant (A12-LLV2) lacking the leader coding region
additional information
-
introduction of FLAG- and HA-tag on the small tetracysteine tc motif CCGPCC of cDNA-derived mutant FMDV A24-L1123, the mutant shows a small plaque phenotype similar to the parental A24-L1123 mutant. Expression of the Flag- or tc-tagged Lab protein is abolished or greatly diminished in these viruses. The A24-L1123/Flag virus acquires an extra base in the inter-AUG region that results in new AUG codons in-frame with the second AUG, and produced a larger Lb protein. This N-terminal extension of the Lb protein in mutant A24-L1123/Flag does not affect virus viability or L functions in cell culture
