Antibody from Single Human VH-rearranging Mouse Potently Neutralizes All SARS-CoV-2 Variants Through BA.5 by Inhibiting Membrane Fusion

ABSTRACT: Here, we describe a mouse model in which the primary B cell receptor (BCR) repertoire is generated solely through V(D)J recombination of a human VH1-2 heavy chain (HC) and, substantially, a human Vk1-33 light chain (LC). Thus, primary humanized BCR repertoire diversity in these mice derives from immensely diverse HC and LC antigen-contact complementarity-region-3 (CDR3) sequences generated de novo by non-templated junctional modifications during V(D)J recombination. We assayed the V usage and CDR3 diversity in this mouse model by HTGTS-repertoire sequencing. Immunizing this human VH1-2/Vk1-33-rearranging model with prototype SARS-CoV-2 spike protein immunogens elicited several VH1-2/Vk1-33-based nAbs. Of these, SP1-77 potently and broadly neutralized all SARS-CoV-2 variants through BA.5. Cryo-EM studies revealed that SP1-77 binds RBD away from the ACE2 receptor-binding-motif via a striking CDR3-dominated mode of recognition. Lattice-light-sheet-microscopy-based studies confirmed that SP1-77 did not block ACE2-mediated viral attachment or subsequent endocytosis, but rather blocked membrane fusion. The SP1-77 binding epitope and neutralization mechanism may offer additional strategies for designing vaccines that robustly neutralize emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants.

Humanized V(D)J-rearranging and TdT-expressing Mouse Vaccine Models with Physiological HIV-1 Broadly Neutralizing Antibody Precursors

Project description:Antibody heavy chain (HC) and light chain (LC) variable region exons are assembled by V(D)J recombination. V(D)J junctional regions encode complementarity-determining-region 3 (CDR3), an antigen-contact region immensely diversified through non-templated nucleotide additions ("N-regions") by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT). HIV-1 vaccine strategies seek to elicit human HIV-1 broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs), such as the potent CD4-binding site VRC01-class bnAbs. Mice with primary B cells that express receptors (BCRs) representing bnAb precursors are used as vaccination models. VRC01-class bnAbs uniformly use human HC VH1-2 and commonly use human LCs Vk3-20 or Vk1-33 associated with an exceptionally short 5-amino-acid (5-aa) CDR3. Prior VRC01-class models had non-physiological precursor levels and/or limited precursor diversity. Here, we describe VRC01-class rearranging mice that generate more physiological primary VRC01-class BCR repertoires via rearrangement of VH1-2, as well as Vk1-33 and/or Vk3-20 in association with diverse CDR3s. Human-like TdT expression in mouse precursor B cells increased LC CDR3 length and diversity and also promoted generation of shorter LC CDR3s via N-region suppression of dominant microhomology-mediated Vk-to-Jk joins. Priming immunization with eOD-GT8 60mer, which strongly engages VRC01 precursors, induced robust VRC01-class germinal center (GC) B cell responses. Vk3-20-based responses were enhanced by N-region addition, which generates Vk3-20-to-Jk junctional sequence combinations that encode VRC01-class 5-aa CDR3s with a critical E residue. VRC01-class-rearranging models should facilitate further evaluation of VRC01-class prime and boost immunogens. These new VRC01-class mouse models establish a prototype for generation of vaccine-testing mouse models for other HIV-1 bnAb lineages that employ different HC or LC Vs.

SUMOylation restrains the degradation of ACE2 through TOLLIP-mediated selective autophagy to facilitate the host susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 infection

Project description:Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the causative agent of the ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Alongside investigations into the virology of SARS-CoV-2, understanding the host–virus dependencies are vital for the identification and rational design of effective antiviral therapy. Here, we report the dominant SARS-CoV-2 entry receptor, ACE2, conjugates with small ubiquitin-like modifier 3 (SUMO3) through a proteome-wide protein interaction analysis. We further demonstrate that E3 SUMO ligase PIAS4 prompts the SUMOylation and stabilization of ACE2, whereas deSUMOylation enzyme SENP3 reverses this process. Conjugation of SUMO3 with ACE2 at lysine (K) 187 hampers the K48-linked ubiquitination of ACE2, thus suppressing its subsequent cargo receptor TOLLIP-dependent autophagic degradation. Pharmacological intervention of ACE2 SUMOylation blocks the entry of SARS-CoV-2 and viral infection-triggered immune responses. Collectively, our findings suggest selective autophagic degradation of ACE2 orchestrated by SUMOylation and ubiquitination can be targeted to future antiviral therapy of SARS-CoV-2.

Bulk RNA Barcoding and sequencing (BRB-seq) of Mock, SARS-CoV, and SARS-CoV-2 infected human airway epithelial cell cultures at 33°C and 37°C

Project description:For the assessment of host response dynamics to SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 infections in human airway epithelial cells at ambient temperature corresponding to the upper or lower respiratory tract. We performed a temporal transcriptome analysis on human airway epithelial cell (hAEC) cultures infected with SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2, as well as uninfected hAEC cultures, incubated either at 33°C or 37°C. hAEC cultures were harvested at 24, 48 72, 96 hpi and processed for Bulk RNA Barcoding and sequencing (BRB-seq), which allows a rapid and sensitive genome-wide transcriptomic analysis in a highly multiplexed manner. Transcriptome data was obtained from a total of 7 biological donors for pairwise comparisons of SARS-CoV or SARS-CoV-2 virus-infected to unexposed hAEC cultures at respective time points and temperatures.

Modeling SARS-CoV-2 infection and its individual differences with ACE2-expressing human iPS cells

Project description:Genetic differences are a primary reason for differences in the susceptibility and severity of COVID-19. As induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells maintain the genetic information of the donor, they can be used to model individual differences in SARS-CoV-2 infection in vitro. We found that human iPS cells expressing the SARS-CoV-2 receptor angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) (ACE2-iPS cells) can be infected w SARS-CoV-2. In infected ACE2-iPS cells, the expression of SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein, budding of viral particles, and production of progeny virus, double membrane spherules, and double-membrane vesicles were confirmed. We performed SARS-CoV-2 infection experiments on ACE2-iPS/ embryonic stem (ES) cells from eight individuals. Male iPS/ES cells were more capable of producing the virus compared with female iPS/ES cells. These findings suggest that ACE2-iPS cells can not only reproduce individual differences in SARS-CoV-2 infection in vitro but also are a useful resource to clarify the causes of individual differences in COVID-19 due to genetic differences.

SARS-CoV-2 infects and replicates in photoreceptor and retinal ganglion cells of human retinal organoids

Project description:Recent data suggests that COVID-19 is a systemic disease affecting multiple organs including the central nervous system. Retinal involvement in COVID-19 has been indicated by several studies, yet many questions remain regarding the ability of SARS-CoV-2 to infect and replicate retinal cells and its effect on the retina. Here we have used human stem cell derived retinal organoids to study retinal infection by SARS-CoV-2. Indeed, SARS-CoV-2 can infect and replicate in retinal organoids, as it is shown to be able to infect different retinal lineages, including retinal ganglion cells and photoreceptors which are the targets of many retinal diseases leading to blindness. SARS-CoV-2 infection of retinal organoids also induces the expression of several inflammatory genes, including Interleukin 33, which is known to be associated with acute COVID-19 disease and with retinal degeneration. Finally, we show that blocking the ACE2 receptor using antibody treatment significantly reduces retinal organoid infection, indicating that SARS-CoV-2 infects retinal cells in an ACE2 dependent manner. These results suggest a direct retinal involvement in COVID-19, and emphasize the need to monitor retinal pathologies as a possible element of “long COVID”.

SARS-CoV-2 receptor ACE2 is an interferon-stimulated gene in human airway epithelial cells and is detected in specific cell subsets across tissues

Project description:There is pressing urgency to understand the pathogenesis of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus clade 2 (SARS-CoV-2) which causes the disease COVID-19. SARS-CoV-2 spike (S)-protein binds ACE2, and in concert with host proteases, principally TMPRSS2, promotes cellular entry. The cell subsets targeted by SARS-CoV-2 in host tissues, and the factors that regulate ACE2 expression, remain unknown. Here, we leverage human, non-human primate, and mouse single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) datasets across health and disease to uncover putative targets of SARS-CoV-2 amongst tissue-resident cell subsets. We identify ACE2 and TMPRSS2 co-expressing cells within lung type II pneumocytes, ileal absorptive enterocytes, and nasal goblet secretory cells. Strikingly, we discover that ACE2 is a human interferon-stimulated gene (ISG) in vitro using airway epithelial cells, and extend our findings to in vivo viral infections. Our data suggest that SARS-CoV-2 could exploit species-specific interferon-driven upregulation of ACE2, a tissue-protective mediator during lung injury, to enhance infection.

Long COVID manifests with T cell dysregulation, inflammation, and an uncoordinated adaptive immune response to SARS-CoV-2

Project description:Long COVID, a type of post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (LC), occurs after at least 10% of SARS-CoV-2 infections, yet its etiology remains poorly understood. Here, we used multiple “omics” assays (CyTOF, RNAseq, Olink) and serology to deeply characterize both global and SARS-CoV-2-specific immunity from blood of unvaccinated individuals with clear LC and non-LC clinical trajectories, 8 months following infection. Our analysis focused on deep phenotyping of T cells, which play important roles in immunity against SARS-CoV-2 yet may also contribute to COVID-19 pathogenesis. Our findings demonstrate that LC individuals exhibit systemic inflammation and immune dysregulation. This is evidenced by global differences in T cell subset distribution in ways that imply ongoing immune responses, as well as by sex-specific perturbations in cytolytic subsets. LC individuals harbored increased frequencies of CD4+ T cells poised to home to inflamed tissues, and of exhausted SARS-CoV-2-specific CD8+ T cells. They also harbored significantly higher levels of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies, and they, but not non-LC individuals, exhibited a mis-coordination between their SARS-CoV-2-specific T and B cell responses. Collectively, our data suggest that proper crosstalk between the humoral and cellular arms of adaptive immunity has broken down in LC, and that this, perhaps in the context of a persistent reservoir of SARS-CoV-2, leads to the immune dysregulation, inflammation, and clinical symptoms associated with this debilitating disease.

HIV infection drives interferon signaling within intestinal SARS-CoV-2 susceptible target cells

Project description:SARS-CoV-2 infects epithelial cells of the human gastrointestinal (GI) tract and causes related symptoms. HIV infection impairs gut homeostasis and is associated with an increased risk of COVID-19 fatality. To investigate the potential link between these observations, we analyzed single-cell transcriptional profiles and SARS-CoV-2 entry receptor expression across lymphoid and mucosal human tissue from chronically HIV-infected individuals and uninfected controls. Absorptive gut enterocytes displayed the highest coexpression of SARS-CoV-2 receptors ACE2, TMPRSS2, and TMPRSS4, of which ACE2 expression was associated with canonical interferon response and antiviral genes. Chronic treated HIV infection was associated with a clear antiviral response in gut enterocytes and, unexpectedly, with a substantial reduction of ACE2 and TMPRSS2 target cells. Gut tissue from SARS-CoV-2–infected individuals, however, showed abundant SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein in both the large and small intestine, including an HIV-coinfected individual. Thus, upregulation of antiviral response genes and downregulation of ACE2 and TMPRSS2 in the GI tract of HIV-infected individuals does not prevent SARS-CoV-2 infection in this compartment. The impact of these HIV-associated intestinal mucosal changes on SARS-CoV-2 infection dynamics, disease severity, and vaccine responses remains unclear and requires further investigation.

TRB sequences targeting ORF1ab are associated with disease severity in hospitalized COVID-19 patients

Project description:The potential protective or pathogenic role of the adaptive immune response to SARS-CoV-2 infection has been vigorously debated. While COVID-19 patients consistently generate a T cell response to SARS-CoV-2 antigens, evidence of significant immune dysregulation in these patients continues to accumulate. In this study, next generation sequencing of the T cell receptor Beta chain (TRB) repertoire was conducted in hospitalized COVID-19 patients to determine if immunogenetic differences of the TRB repertoire contribute to the severity of the disease course. Clustering of highly similar TRB CDR3 amino acid sequences across COVID-19 patients yielded 785 shared TRB sequences. The TRB sequences were then filtered for known associations with common diseases such as EBV and CMV. The remaining sequences were cross-referenced to a publicly accessible dataset that mapped COVID-19 specific TCRs to the SARS-CoV-2 genome. We identified 140 SARS-CoV-2 specific TRB sequences belonging to 119 clusters in our COVID-19 patients. Next, we investigated 92 SARS-CoV-2 specific clusters binding only one peptide target in relation to disease course. Distinct skewing of SARS-CoV-2 specific TRB sequences towards the nonstructural proteins (NSPs) of ORF1a/b of the SARS-CoV-2 genome was observed in clusters with critical disease course when compared to COVID-19 clusters with a severe disease course. These data imply that T-lymphocyte reactivity towards peptides from nonstructural proteins of SARS-CoV-2 may not constitute an effective adaptive immune response and thus may negatively affect disease severity.
