May facilitate virus budding by interacting with the nucleocapsid and the plasma membrane. Specific interactions with membrane-associated GP and VP24 during the budding process may also occur. The hexamer form seems to be involved in budding. The octamer form binds RNA, and may play a role in genome replication (By similarity). |

| + | The Ebola virus matrix protein VP40 mediates viral budding and negatively regulates viral RNA synthesis. The mechanisms by which these two functions are exerted and regulated are unknown. Using a high-resolution crystal structure of Sudan ebolavirus (SUDV) VP40, we show here that two cysteines in the flexible C-terminal arm of VP40 form a stabilizing disulfide bridge. Notably, the two cysteines are targets of posttranslational redox modifications and interact directly with the host;s thioredoxin system. Mutation of the cysteines impaired the budding function of VP40 and relaxed its inhibitory role for viral RNA synthesis. In line with these results, the growth of recombinant Ebola viruses carrying cysteine mutations was impaired and the released viral particles were elongated. Our results revealed the exact positions of the cysteines in the C-terminal arm of SUDV VP40. The cysteines and/or their redox status are critically involved in the differential regulation of viral budding and viral RNA synthesis. | ||
