Popis: Cytoplasmic actins have been found interacting with viral proteins and identified in virus particles. We analyzed by confocal microscopy the cytoplasmic β- and γ-actin patterns during the course of Sendai virus infections in polarized cells. We observed a spectacular remodeling of the β-cytoplasmic actin which correlated with productive viral multiplication. Conversely, suppression of M during the course of a productive infection resulted in the decrease of particle production and the absence of β-actin remodeling. As concomitant suppression of β- and γ-actins resulted as well in reduction of virus particle production, we propose that Sendai virus specifically induces actin remodeling in order to promote efficient virion production. Beta- and γ-cytoplasmic actin recruitment could substitute for that of the endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) mobilized by other enveloped viruses but apparently not used by Sendai virus.
