An Engineered Viral RNA Degrader on Mitochondrial Surface that Mitigates RNA Virus Infection

ABSTRACT: Infections by RNA viruses cause diseases. Host factor(s) that restrain viral propagation might offer opportunities for designing new anti-virus treatments. We used vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) as a study model, and observed the synthesis of VSV RNAs at mitochondria /endoplasmic reticulum (mito/ER) spheres accompanied by the leakage of endonuclease G (ENDOG), a mitochondrial nuclease, to the cytosol. We provide evidence that ENDOG released from mitochondria is a host anti-viral factor by eliminating viral RNAs for replication. However, ENDOG outside mitochondria can be translocated to nuclei to cause nuclear DNA damages. We engineered an ENDOG expressed on mitochondrial outer membrane (MOM), namely MOM-ENDOG, to increase the accessibility to viral RNA transcripts synthesized at mitochondrial sites without damaging nuclear DNA (nDNA). Delivery of modified mRNA of wild-type but not catalytic-dead MOM-ENDOG markedly suppressed not only the propagation of VSV, but also Dengue, and Zika virus. Thus, this organelle-specific viral RNA degrader might be developed as a broad-spectrum anti-viral agent.

Endonuclease G promotes hepatic mitochondrial respiration by selectively increasing mitochondrial tRNAThr production

Project description:Mitochondrial endonuclease G (EndoG) contributes to chromosomal degradation when it is released from mitochondria during apoptosis. It is presumed to also have a mitochondrial function because EndoG deficiency causes mitochondrial dysfunction. However, the mechanism by which EndoG regulates mitochondrial function is not known. Fat accumulation in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), which is more common in men, is caused in part by mitochondrial dysfunction. EndoG expression is reduced in MASLD liver, and EndoG deficiency causes MASLD in an obesity-independent manner but only in males. EndoG promotes mitochondrial respiration by resolving mitochondrial tRNA/DNA hybrids formed during mtDNA transcription by recruiting RNA helicase DHX30 to unwind them. EndoG also cleaves off the 3'-end of the H-strand transcript that can prevent mt-tRNAThr precursor cloverleaf-folding, and processing, which increases mt-tRNAThr production and mitochondrial translation. Using fluorescent lifetime imaging microscopy technology to visualize oxygen consumption at the individual mitochondrion level, we found that EndoG deficiency leads to the selective loss of a mitochondrial subpopulation with high-oxygen consumption. This defect was reversed with mt-tRNAThr supplementation. Thus, EndoG promotes mitochondrial respiration by selectively regulating the production of mt-tRNAThr in male mice.

Targeted down regulation of core mitochondrial genes during SARS-CoV-2 infection

Project description:SARS-CoV-2 polypeptides bind mitochondrial proteins, and the virus inhibits oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) nuclear DNA (nDNA) gene transcription by blocking coordinately expressed genes of modular components of the OXPHOS holoenzymes. While initial nasopharyngeal infection is associated with the down regulation of OXPHOS genes, at death lung OXPHOS is up regulated. By contrast, heart, kidney, and liver nDNA gene expression remains suppressed, likely contributing to mortality. The virus also induces miR-2392 which inhibits mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) transcription and the translation of mitochondrial cytosolic mRNAs. This concerted inhibition of OXPHOS activates HIF-1α inducing a pseudo-hypoxic state favoring viral biogenesis. We interrogated the effects of SARS-CoV-2 infection by infecting BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice with the mouse-adapted SARS-CoV-2 MA10 virus and analyzed their lung transcripts at day 4 post infection.

Genome-wide maps of chromatin state in iBMDM (immortalized bone-marrow-derived macrophages) cells without or with virus infection.

Project description:iBMDM cells were infected with VSV (Vesicular Stomatitis Virus) or HSV-1 (Herpes Simplex Virus 1) for 8 hours, followed by CHIP-seq analysis with H3K27AC antibody (Abcam, ab4729). We find that chromatin state changed with virus infection, some enhacer and superenhancer were induced to promote anti-viral gene expression. Conclusions: virus infection induce enhancer and superenhancer activation.

Total RNA Sequencing analysis of total RNA and RNA isolated from mitochondrial pellets in CSDE1-knockdown sensory neurons

Project description:CSDE1 is an RNA-binding protein that associates with a subset of mitochondria-related transcripts. We previously observed that RNAs encoding mitochondrial proteins localized to the mitochondrial inner membrane (MIM), intermembrane space (IMS), matrix, and outer membrane (MOM) are enriched within the CSDE1-bound RNA pool. To determine whether CSDE1 regulates the abundance and mitochondrial localization of mitochondria-associated RNAs in sensory neurons, we performed RNA sequencing of both total RNA and RNA extracted from isolated mitochondria isolated from CSDE1-knockdown sensory neurons. CSDE1 knockdown was achieved using lentiviral transduction, and sequencing results were compared with control neurons infected with empty vector (pLKO).

Targeted metabolomics analysis by LC-MS/MS for BMDCs infected with VSV

Project description:Virus-infected cells often exhibit dramatic cellular changes accompanied by altered mitochondrial function. The contribution of factors shaping the inner mitochondrial membrane (IMM) and cristae architecture on viral replication is insufficiently understood. Single cell transcriptomics applying vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) infection suggests involvement of factors determining IMM architecture following infection. Consistently, inhibition of the F1Fo ATP synthase reduces viral replication which is associated with oligomerization of the complex and altered IMM structure. Moreover, deletion of mitochondrial contact site and cristae organizing system (MICOS) complex by targeting MIC60 results in reduced viral replication. Generation of Mic60inv/inv CD11c-Cre+ mice uncovers reduced crista junctions and viral replication in bone marrow-derived dendritic cells. Consequently, reduced viral replication in CD11c-expressing cells limits prolonged immune activation. Altogether, by linking the F1Fo ATP synthase and the MICOS complex to viral replication and immune activation, we describe links between the mitochondrial structure-metabolism and the immune response against viral infection.

Pressure-Driven Mitochondrial Transfer Pipeline Generates Mammalian Cells of Desired Genetic Combinations and Fates

Project description:Generating mammalian cells with desired mtDNA sequences is enabling for studies of mitochondria, disease modeling, and potential regenerative therapies. MitoPunch, a high-throughput mitochondrial transfer device, produces cells with specific mtDNA-nDNA combinations by transferring isolated mitochondria from mouse or human cells into primary or immortal mtDNA-deficient (p0) cells. Stable isolated mitochondrial recipient (SIMR) cells isolated in restrictive media permanently retain donor mtDNA and reacquire respiration. However, SIMR fibroblasts maintain a p0-like cell metabolome and transcriptome despite growth in restrictive media. We reprogram non-immortal SIMR fibroblasts into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) with subsequent differentiation into diverse functional cell types, including mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), adipocytes, osteoblasts, and chondrocytes. Remarkably, following reprogramming and differentiation, SIMR fibroblasts molecularly and phenotypically resemble un-manipulated control fibroblasts carried through the same protocol. Thus, our MitoPunch ‘pipeline’ enables the production of SIMR cells with unique mtDNA-nDNA combinations for additional studies and applications in multiple cell types.
