The infection causes great economic losses to aquaculture and sea-ranching. To study the dissociation and reassembly of betanodavirus, virus-like particles (VLPs) of dragon grouper nervous necrosis virus (DGNNV) were used. The experiments with calcium-chelating or reducing/oxidizing reagents elicited that the DGNNV VLPs required only calcium for particle assembly. With the recombinant VLPs, site-directed mutagenesis can be employed to investigate the roles of calcium-binding ligands in particle formation. In the mutational analysis of DxxDxD that is putatively involved in the coordination of calcium ions, the results showed that the D133N mutation significantly disrupted the assembly of VLPs while D130N and D135N mutants produced heterogeneous particles with broken shapes. The thermal stability of the VLP-forming fractions demonstrated that VLPs of D135N mutant were stable at a temperature of 85°C, which is slightly higher than that for wild-type, whereas VLPs of D130N mutant could not tolerate the thermal effects at a temperature higher than 60°C. It is deduced that three aspartate residues of the motif DxxDxD are all important for the efficient formation of DGNNV VLPs and, among them, the DxxD provides a more stable coordinate of calcium-ligand than DxD.
