Background

Dengue virus type 1 non-structural protein 1 (DENV3 NS1) is an approximately 50 kDa viral glycoprotein (1). Dengue viruses are mosquito-borne flaviviruses that exist in nature as four distinct serotypes (DENV1-4) (2). Dengue virus NS1 can be found associated with cell membranes, within cells and at the cell surface, or as secreted extracellular species. The secreted form of NS1 is known to be hexameric (1). Within cells, NS1 plays a significant role in virus replication and has been shown to co-localize with dsRNA and other components of viral replication complexes in viral-induced vesicle packets (1, 3). Cell surface-associated and secreted NS1 are profoundly immunogenic, and both the protein itself and the antibodies it elicits have been shown to contribute to either protection or pathogenesis and innate immune evasion (1, 3). Mature DENV3 NS1 contains 352 amino acids (aa) and consists of 2 conserved N-glycosylation sites and 12 invariant cysteine residues that form six intramolecular disulfide bonds (3). Mature DENV3 NS1 shares 80%, 74%, and 74% aa sequence identity with DENV1, DENV2, and DENV4 NS1, respectively.
