The length of amino acid sequence at the NS1-NS2A juncture of dengue virus that is required for specific cleavage effected by the cis-acting function of NS2A was identified by deletion analysis. Recombinant DNA sequences of NS1-NS2A, each containing a deletion in NS1 followed by a sequence of 3 to 20 amino acids at the C terminus of NS1 preceding the cleavage site, were constructed and expressed with vaccinia virus as a vector. The NS1 product of recombinant vaccinia virus-infected cells was immunoprecipitated and analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The occurrence of cleavage between NS1 and NS2A was indicated by the appearance of shortened NS1. Failure to cleave this site yielded a large NS1-NS2A fusion protein. This analysis indicated that a minimum length of eight amino acids at the NS1 C terminus preceding the NS1-NS2A juncture is required for cleavage to take place. Comparison of this eight-amino-acid sequence of the NS1 C terminus of dengue type 4 virus with the analogous sequences of 12 other flaviviruses suggests that the consensus cleavage site sequence is as follows: (table; see text)
