Group A rotaviruses are major intestinal pathogens that express potential
4
1 and
4
7 integrin ligand sequences LeuAspVal and LeuAspIle in their outer capsid protein VP7, and IleAspAla in their spike protein VP4. Monkey rotavirus SA11 can use recombinant
4
1 as a cellular receptor. In this study a new potential
4
1,
4
7 and
9
1 integrin ligand sequence, TyrGlyLeu, was identified in VP4. It was shown that several human and monkey rotaviruses bound
4
1 and
4
7, but not
9
1. Binding to
4
1 mediated the infectivity and growth of monkey rotaviruses, and binding to
4
7 mediated their infectivity. A porcine rotavirus interacted with
4 integrins at a post-binding stage to facilitate infection. Activation of
4
1 increased rotavirus infectivity. Cellular treatment with peptides containing the
4 integrin ligand sequences TyrGlyLeu and IleAspAla eliminated virus binding to
4 integrins and infectivity. In contrast, rotavirus recognition of
4 integrins was unaffected by a peptide containing the sequence LeuAspVal or by a mutation in the VP7 LeuAspVal sequence. VP4 involvement in rotavirus recognition of
4
1 was demonstrated with rotavirus reassortants. Swapping and point mutagenesis of
4 surface loops showed that rotaviruses required the same
4 residues and domains for binding as the natural
4 integrin ligands: mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule-1, fibronectin and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1. Several rotaviruses are able to use
4
7 and
4
1 for cell binding or entry, through the recognition of the same
4-subunit domains as natural
4 ligands.
