Abstract

Three miscellaneous positive-strand RNA viruses are described briefly with an emphasis on the genome structure: caliciviruses, togaviruses, and coronaviruses. Unlike those described in the two preceding chapters, these RNA viruses possess one or more subgenomic RNAs, besides the full-length genomic RNA. These subgenomic RNAs are all positioned to the 3′ side of the RNA genome and encode structural proteins. Importantly, viruses belonging to these three RNA virus families have become a global public health concern. Noroviruses, a prototype of calicivirus, are responsible for almost all viral gastroenteritis outbreaks worldwide. Moreover, some newly emerging viruses belong to togaviruses and coronaviruses. Chikungunya virus, an emerging virus that caused an outbreak in Africa during 2004–2006, belongs to the togavirus family. Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) coronavirus and Middle-East respiratory syndrome (MERS) coronavirus, which caused 2003 SARS outbreak in China and 2014 MERS outbreak in the Middle East, belong to the coronavirus family.

Caliciviruses are important human and veterinary pathogens which are associated with a broad spectrum of diseases in their hosts.

represents a prototype of calicivirus. Noroviruses are the causative agents of nonbacterial gastroenteritis in humans and are responsible for almost all viral gastroenteritis outbreaks worldwide.</p>
<p id="p0070">
<italic>Epidemiology</italic>
: Noroviruses are transmitted via the oral-fecal route due to contaminated water and food, or directly from person to person. They are extremely contagious. Transmission can be aerosolized when those stricken with the illness vomit, or when a toilet flushes with vomit or diarrhea in it; infection can occur by eating food or breathing air near an episode of vomiting, even if cleaned up. The viruses continue to be shed after symptoms have subsided and shedding can still be detected many weeks after infection.</p>
<p id="p0075">Noroviruses are responsible for over 50% of gastroenteritis worldwide (
<xref rid="f0010" ref-type="fig">Fig. 13.1</xref>
). Each year, human noroviruses cause at least around 267 million episodes and over 200,000 deaths in developing nations as well as approximately 900,000 cases of pediatric gastroenteritis in industrialized nations. Even in the United States, they cause over 20,000 episodes and 300 deaths. Shellfishes (oysters in particular), which are often consumed uncooked, are frequently the source of infection. Oysters act as a filter to concentrate the virus particles present in sea water. Symptoms include vomiting, diarrhea, and dehydration. No vaccine or antiviral drugs are yet available.

<xref rid="fn3" ref-type="fn">3</xref>
is expressed (
<xref rid="f0015" ref-type="fig">Fig. 13.2</xref>
).
<italic>VPg</italic>
(virion protein genome-linked) is covalently linked to both the genomic and the subgenomic RNAs. The ORF1 polyprotein encoded by the genomic RNA encodes nonstructural proteins such as 3CL
<sup>PRO</sup>
and RdRp that are essential for viral RNA replication. On the other hand, the subgenomic RNA encodes the structural proteins such as VP1 and VP2. Unlike picornaviruses, internal ribosome entry site (IRES) element is not found in the 5′ NCR. Instead, the VPg recruits eIF4E, a cap-binding translation initiation factor, to initiate translation (
<xref rid="b0010" ref-type="boxed-text">Box 13.1</xref>
). In other words, the VPg substitutes for the cap structure in recruiting host translation factors.

<p>In addition to the genomic RNA, norovirus has a subgenomic RNA. The VPg is covalently linked to the 5′ termini of both the genomic and the subgenomic RNAs. The ORF1 polyprotein is later processed to form six individual proteins by a virus-encoded 3CL

<p id="p0010">VPg is linked to the 5′ terminus of norovirus RNAs, which is a reminiscent of picornavirus. However, unlike picornavirus, the IRES element, which is essential for the cap-independent translation, is not present in the 5′ NCR of norovirus RNAs. An immediate question is then how norovirus genome RNA is translated. Surprisingly, it was found that VPg has the ability to bind eIF4E and, in doing so, it facilitates the translation initiation of viral RNAs in eIF4E-dependent manner. In other words, VPg substitutes the role of the cap structure of eukaryotic mRNAs in recruiting eIF4E, a cap-binding protein. Overall, norovirus co-opts the cellular eIF4E-dependent translation mechanism via a novel VPg-eIF4E interaction.

<italic>Cultivation in Cell Culture:</italic>
The investigation on human norovirus has been hampered by the lack of cell lines that support the virus infection. Since human norovirus has remained uncultivable, the studies on viral genome replication could be performed only by transfection of viral genomic RNA into appropriate cells. Recently, major progress in norovirus research was made by a successful demonstration of a human norovirus infection in a cell culture (see
<xref rid="fr0015" ref-type="sec">Journal Club</xref>
). Successful establishment of an in vitro cultivation system of human norovirus will facilitate the development of prophylatic vaccine and antivirals.</p>

<italic>Epidemiology</italic>
: Human coronaviruses were known to cause only mild respiratory infections, until the SARS outbreak. The SARS-CoV outbreak that occurred in 2003 has drawn attention, since it was fatal, causing SARS (see below). Moreover, a novel human coronavirus, MERS-CoV, is responsible for a new emerging respiratory infection that occurred in 2012 in Middle East countries, including Saudi Arabia (see Fig. 21.11).</p>
<p id="p0145">
<italic>Virion Structure</italic>
: Coronaviruses are enveloped and contain a large helical nucleocapsid inside (
<xref rid="f0030" ref-type="fig">Fig. 13.5</xref>
). The viral envelope is studded with spike glycoprotein trimer (S), hemagglutinin-esterase dimer (HE), membrane protein (M), and envelope protein (E). In particular, the protruding spike protein (S) characterizes the crown shaped virion, which it was named after. “Corona” (crown) refers to the characteristic appearance of virions under electron microscopy with a fringe of large, bulbous surface projections creating an image reminiscent of the solar corona.

<italic>Genome Structure</italic>
: The genome of coronavirus represents a large single-strand RNA of 27–32 kb (
<xref rid="f0035" ref-type="fig">Fig. 13.6</xref>
). It is the largest RNA genome among animal RNA viruses. The ORF1a and ORF1ab are translated as polyproteins, which are subsequently processed to 16 nonstructural proteins. In addition to the large genomic RNA, coronaviruses have eight subgenomic RNAs, each of them encoding one structural protein. In particular, the S (spike) envelope glycoprotein binds to the host cell receptor and determines tissue tropism and host range.

<p>In addition to the large genomic RNA, coronavirus has eight subgenomic RNAs. The genomic RNA encodes two ORFs: ORF1a and ORF1b. The ORF1b is translated as an ORF1a-ORF1b fusion protein following a frame-shift (denoted by an

<italic>SARS-CoV</italic>
: SARS outbreak first occurred in Southern China (including Hong Kong), and spread to South East Asia and Northern America within a few weeks (see Fig. 21.10). The initial casualty and media hype made the public paranoid, canceling overseas travel and international meetings. SARS outbreaks resulted in over 8000 infections and 700 deaths in 20 countries. It turned out that bats were the reservoir for SARS-CoV. It is believed that bat coronavirus had acquired the ability to infect human, extending the host range, by having a few mutations in the spike protein. Recently,
<italic>ACE</italic>
(angiotensin-converting enzyme 2) was identified as the cellular receptor for virus entry of SARS-CoV to human infection. </p>
<p id="p0160">
<italic>MERS-CoV</italic>
: MERS outbreak first occurred in the Middle East (mainly Saudi Arabia) in 2012, and spread to European countries in a limited manner (see Fig. 21.11). As of June 2015, MERS-CoV caused 1266 cases and 470 deaths reported in multiple countries. MERS-CoV cases have been reported in 23 countries, including Saudi Arabia, Malaysia, Jordan, Qatar, Egypt, the United States, and South Korea. The fatality of MERS-CoV is considerably higher than that of SARS-CoV, approaching 30%. It is speculated that the virus spreads from bats to human via dromedary camel (see Fig. 21.11). The risk of sustained person-to-person transmission appears to be very low. Recently, dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4 or also known as CD26) was identified as the cellular receptor for virus entry of MERS-CoV. Further, a mouse model for MERS-CoV infection was established that expresses the DPP4. It is hoped that the established mouse model will facilitate the development of a vaccine and antiviral drugs.</p>

<title>Perspectives</title>
<p id="p0165">In this chapter, three miscellaneous positive-strand DNA viruses are described. Noroviruses, a prototype of caliciviruses, are responsible for almost all viral gastroenteritis outbreaks worldwide. Nonetheless, no vaccine and antiviral drugs are available to control norovirus infection. The lack of susceptible cell lines and animal model for norovirus infection have imposed barriers to basic research until recently. A recent successful demonstration of human norovirus infection using B lymphocytes (see
<xref rid="fr0015" ref-type="sec">Journal Club</xref>
) deserves more attention in this regard. Such progress in norovirus infection system will greatly advance our understanding on the infection pathology of human norovirus and at the same time facilitate antiviral drug discovery and preventive vaccine development. Sindbis virus and SFV have been extensively studied as the prototype of togaviruses. Surveillance on zoonotic togaviruses, such as VEEV, has become more important. Finally, the emergence of deadly human coronaviruses—SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV—have bolstered research in these viral and often zoonotic pathogens. Accordingly, great advances, such as identification of host cell receptor, the establishment of reverse genetics, and small animal model for infection, have been made in the past decade.</p>

<p id="p0215">Highlight: The biggest hurdle in norovirus research has been that norovirus is not cultivatable in a cell culture. It has been speculated that noroviruses primarily target intestinal epithelial cells, which line the intestine and protect it from pathogens. Surprisingly, the authors here demonstrated that human norovirus can be propagated in B cells, with the help of enteric bacteria. It is an unprecedented finding that bacteria facilitates the virus infection.</p>
