Abstract
Two strains of the parvovirus minute virus of mice (MVM), the immunosuppressive (MVMi) and the prototype (MVMp) strains, display disparate in vitro tropism and in vivo pathogenicity. We report the crystal structures of MVMp virus-like particles (MVMp(b)) and native wild-type (wt) empty capsids (MVMp(e)), determined and refined to 3.25 and 3.75 A resolution, respectively, and their comparison to the structure of MVMi, also refined to 3.5 A resolution in this study. A comparison of the MVMp(b) and MVMp(e) capsids showed their structures to be the same, providing structural verification that some heterologously expressed parvovirus capsids are indistinguishable from wt capsids produced in host cells. The structures of MVMi and MVMp capsids were almost identical, but local surface conformational differences clustered from symmetry-related capsid proteins at three specific domains: (i) the icosahedral fivefold axis, (ii) the "shoulder" of the protrusion at the icosahedral threefold axis, and (iii) the area surrounding the depression at the icosahedral twofold axis. The latter two domains contain important determinants of MVM in vitro tropism (residues 317 and 321) and forward mutation residues (residues 399, 460, 553, and 558) conferring fibrotropism on MVMi. Furthermore, these structural differences between the MVM strains colocalize with tropism and pathogenicity determinants mapped for other autonomous parvovirus capsids, highlighting the importance of common parvovirus capsid regions in the control of virus-host interactions.

Figure 1.
Fig. 1. (a) Self­rotation functions for x = 180 ° sing data between 10 and 6 A resolution in the C2 space group. Axial directions for he rhombohedral system's hexagonl setting ar shown as aN*, b/4, and c/4. The axial directions for the monoclinic system a M, b v and c M are also hown. The orientation is chosen to correspond o he rhobohedral space­group setting looking down the threefold axis. Great circles are shon connecting adjacent twofold axes. Contours and grid circles for the two independent particles are differentiated by using red and blue. Insets show details of selecte peaks using data between 4.0 and 3.0 A resolution. The black contours show he rotation function calculated with the data processed in space group R32, whereas the green contours show he rotation function calculated for space group C2. (b) The relatioship between he pseudo higher order space group R32 and the actual space group C2. Axes are labeled as indicated above.
