Project description:HIV-1 recurrently targets active genes that are positioned in the outer shell of the nucleus and integrates in the proximity of the nuclear pore compartment. However, the genomic features of these genes and the relevance of their transcriptional activity for HIV-1 integration have so far remained unclear. Here we show that recurrently targeted genes are proximal to super-enhancer genomic elements and that they cluster in specific spatial compartments of the T cell nucleus. We further show that these gene clusters acquire their location at the nuclear periphery during the activation of T cells. The clustering of these genes along with their transcriptional status are the major determinants of HIV-1 integration in T cells. Our results show for the first time the relevance of the spatial compartmentalization of the genome for HIV-1 integration, thus further strengthening the role of nuclear architecture in viral infection.

Project description:The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) enters the nucleus to establish infection, but the role of nuclear envelope proteins in this process is incompletely understood. Inner nuclear transmembrane proteins SUN1 and SUN2 connect nuclear lamins to the cytoskeleton and participate in the DNA damage response (DDR). Increased levels of SUN1 or SUN2 potently restrict HIV infection through an unresolved mechanism. Here, we find that the antiviral activities of SUN1 and SUN2 are distinct. HIV-1 and HIV-2 are preferentially inhibited by SUN1 and SUN2, respectively. We identify DNA damage inducers that stimulate HIV-1 infection and show that SUN1, but not SUN2, neutralizes this effect. Finally, we show that chromatin movements and nuclear rotations are associated with the effects of SUN proteins and Lamin A/C on infection. These results reveal an emerging role of chromatin dynamics and the DDR in the control of HIV infection by structural components of the nuclear envelope.

Project description:<p>Nucleic acid and histone modifications critically depend on tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle for substrates and co-factors. Although a few TCA cycle enzymes have been reported in the nucleus, the corresponding pathways are considered to operate in mitochondria. Here, we show that a part of the TCA cycle is operational also in the nucleus. Using 13C-tracer analysis, we identified activity of glutamine-to-fumarate, citrate-to-succinate, and glutamine-to-aspartate routes in the nuclei of HeLa cells. Proximity labeling mass-spectrometry revealed a spatial vicinity of the involved enzymes with core nuclear proteins. We further show nuclear localization of aconitase 2 and 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase in mouse embryonic stem cells. Nuclear localization of the latter enzyme, which produces succinyl-CoA, changed from pluripotency to differentiated state with accompanying changes in the nuclear protein succinylation. Together, our results demonstrate operation of an extended metabolic pathway in the nucleus warranting a revision of the canonical view on metabolic compartmentalization.</p>

Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE10697: Self-Self Hybridisation were used to set confidence 99% intervals GSE10698: The effects of artificial tethering of chromosomes to the nuclear periphery using LacI/lap2b anchorage constructs 1 GSE10699: The effects of artificial tethering of chromosomes to the nuclear periphery using LacI/lap2b anchorage constructs 2 Background: The spatial organisation of the genome in the nucleus has a role in the regulation of gene expression. In mammals, chromosomal regions with low gene-density are located close to the nuclear periphery. Correlations have also been made between the transcriptional state of some genes and their location near the nuclear periphery. However, a crucial issue is whether this level of nuclear organisation directly affects gene function, rather than merely reflecting it. Methodology: To directly investigate whether proximity to the nuclear periphery can influence gene expression in mammalian cells. here we relocate specific human chromosomes to the nuclear periphery by tethering them to a protein of the inner nuclear membrane. Principal findings: We show that this can reversibly suppress the expression of some endogenous human genes located near the tethering sites, and even genes further away. However, the expression of many other genes is not detectably reduced and we show that location at the nuclear periphery is not incompatible with active transcription. The dampening of gene expression around the nuclear periphery is dependent on the activity of histone deacetylases. Significance: Our data show that the radial position within the nucleus can influence the expression of some, but not all, genes. This is compatible with the suggestion that re-localisation of genes to the peripheral zone of the nucleus could be used by metazoans to modulate the expression of selected genes during development and differentiation.

Project description:Detection of viruses by innate immune sensors induces protective antiviral immunity. The viral DNA sensor cGAS is necessary for detection of HIV by human dendritic cells and macrophages. However, synthesis of HIV DNA during infection is not sufficient for immune activation. The capsid protein, which associates with viral DNA, has a pivotal role in enabling cGAS-mediated immune activation. We now find that NONO is an essential sensor of the HIV capsid in the nucleus. NONO protein directly binds capsid with higher affinity for weakly pathogenic HIV-2 than highly pathogenic HIV-1. Upon infection, NONO is essential for cGAS activation by HIV and cGAS association with HIV DNA in the nucleus. NONO recognizes a conserved region in HIV capsid with limited tolerance for escape mutations. Detection of nuclear viral capsid by NONO to promote DNA sensing by cGAS reveals an innate strategy to achieve distinction of viruses from self in the nucleus.

Project description:Regulation of gene expression is highly conserved between vertebrates, yet the genomic binding patterns of transcription factors are poorly conserved, suggesting that other mechanisms may contribute. The spatial organization of chromosomes in the nucleus is known to affect gene activity, but it is unclear to what extent this organization is conserved in evolution. Genome-wide maps of nuclear lamina (NL) interactions show that human and mouse chromosomes have highly similar folding patterns inside the nucleus. Breaks in synteny are often located at transition points between NL interacting and intra-nuclear regions. Data were compared against data from Peric-Hupkes, Meuleman et al. (Molecular Cell, 2010). LaminB1-chromatin interactions were assayed in human ESCs and human HT1080 cells. LaminA-chromatin interactions were assayed in human HT1080 cells. For the all samples there were 2 biological replicates, that were hybridized in a dye-swap design.

Pseudophosphatase STYX

spatiotemporal regulation of ERK1/2.

Abstract:
Serine/threonine/tyrosine-interacting protein (STYX) is a
catalytically inactive member of the dual-specificity
phosphatases (DUSPs) family. Whereas the role of DUSPs in
cellular signaling is well explored, the function of STYX is
still unknown. Here, we identify STYX as a spatial regulator of
ERK signaling. We used predictive-model simulation to test
several hypotheses for possible modes of STYX action. We show
that STYX localizes to the nucleus, competes with nuclear DUSP4
for binding to ERK, and acts as a nuclear anchor that regulates
ERK nuclear export. Depletion of STYX increases ERK activity in
both cytosol and nucleus. Importantly, depletion of STYX causes
an ERK-dependent fragmentation of the Golgi apparatus and
inhibits Golgi polarization and directional cell migration.
Finally, we show that overexpression of STYX reduces ERK1/2
activation, thereby blocking PC12 cell differentiation.
Overall, our results identify STYX as an important regulator of
ERK1/2 signaling critical for cell migration and PC12 cell
differentiation.

Project description:Nucleic acid and histone modifications critically depend on central metabolism for substrates and co-factors. Although a few enzymes related to the formation of these required metabolites have been reported in the nucleus, the corresponding metabolic pathways are considered to function elsewhere in the cell. Here we show that a substantial part of the mitochondrial tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, the biosynthetic hub of epigenetic modification factors, is operational also in the nucleus. Using 13C-tracer analysis, we identified activity of glutamine-to-fumarate, citrate-to-succinate, and glutamine-to-aspartate routes in the nuclei of HeLa cells. Proximity labeling mass-spectrometry revealed a spatial vicinity of the involved enzymes with core nuclear proteins, supporting their nuclear location. We further show nuclear localization of aconitase 2 and 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase in mouse embryonic stem cells. Together, our results demonstrate operation of an extended metabolic pathway in the nucleus warranting a revision of the canonical view on metabolic compartmentalization and gene expression regulation.
