Hepatitis E virus (HEV) causes an acute self-limiting disease that is endemic in developing countries. Previous studies suggested that the ORF3 protein (pORF3) of HEV is required for infection in vivo and is likely to modulate the host response. Our previous work showed that pORF3 localizes to early and recycling endosomes and causes a delay in the postinternalization trafficking of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) to late endosomes/lysosomes. Here we report that pORF3 also delays the trafficking and degradation of activated hepatocyte growth factor receptor (c-Met) and delineate the mechanistic details of these effects. A mutant ORF3 protein, which does not localize to endosomes, also showed similar effects on growth factor receptor trafficking, making this effect independent of the endosomal localization of pORF3. The ORF3 protein was found to interact with CIN85, a multidomain adaptor protein implicated in the Cbl-mediated downregulation of receptor tyrosine kinases. This interaction competed with the formation of the growth factor receptor-Cbl-CIN85 complex, resulting in the reduced ubiquitination of CIN85 and trafficking of the growth factor receptor complex toward late endosomes/lysosomes. We propose that through its effects on growth factor receptor trafficking, pORF3 prolongs endomembrane growth factor signaling and promotes cell survival to contribute positively to viral replication and pathogenesis.
