The yellow fever virus capsid protein is a potent suppressor of RNA silencing that binds double stranded RNA.

ABSTRACT: In this study, we describe a viral suppressor of RNA silencing encoded by the prototype flavivirus, yellow fever virus (YFV). We show that the YFV capsid protein inhibits RNA silencing in the mosquito Aedes aegypti by interfering with Dicer. These results suggest a molecular arms race between vector and pathogen underlies the continued existence of flaviviruses in nature.

Aedes aegypti strain:LVP_AGWG (yellow fever mosquito)

Project description:Aedes aegypti mosquitoes infect hundreds of millions of people each year with dangerous viral pathogens including dengue, yellow fever, Zika, and chikungunya. Progress in understanding the biology of this insect, and developing tools to fight it, depends on the availablity of a high-quality genome assembly. Here we use DNA proximity ligaton (Hi-C) and Pacific Biosciences long reads to create AaegL5 - a highly contiguous A. aegypti reference.

"Analysis of Zika virus capsid-Aedes aegypti mosquito interactome reveals pro-viral host factors critical for establishing infection"

Project description:The emergence of mosquito-borne diseases because of climate change emphasizes the need to study arbovirus-vector protein-protein interactions (PPI) to better understand viral replication and transmission. One such human pathogenic arbovirus is Zika virus (ZIKV; Flaviviridae), transmitted by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. With the lack of molecular tools to study mosquito cells, we developed an Ae. aegypti AF5 cell line stably expressing ZIKV capsid to investigate PPI through label-free quantification proteomics. We identified 157 interactors with 8 potentially pro-viral during ZIKV infection and showed that the transitional endoplasmic reticulum 94 (TER94) protein of the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway (UPP) was important during ZIKV infection in mosquito cells. Silencing TER94 in AF5 cells prevented ZIKV capsid degradation and significantly reduced the establishment of replication at the early stages of infection. Human TER94 ortholog, valosin containing protein (VCP), identified through ortholog mapping, was found to have a similar function during ZIKV infection in A549 cells. ZIKV had reduced ability to replicate when ubiquitination and VCP function were blocked by chemical inhibitors. Furthermore, ubiquitin protein ligase E3 component n-recognin 5 (UBR5) was identified as a TER94/VCP co-factor for capsid interaction. Our study demonstrates a conserved function for TER94/VCP-UPP during early ZIKV infection in mosquito and human cells.

Virus-Host Interactome Reveals the Unique Blockage of Host RNAi Machinery by the Zika Virus Capsid

Project description:The recent outbreaks of Zika virus (ZIKV) and its association with birth defects known as Congenital Zika Syndrome warrant investigation on the molecular processes related to its infection and pathogenesis. Among the flavivirus family, only ZIKV is linked to microcephaly as announced by World Health Organization, suggesting uniqueness of ZIKV infection compared to other members. By analyzing the ZIKV-host interactome, we found that the key microRNA (miRNA) processing enzyme Dicer was a leading target of ZIKV capsid protein in neural stem cells (NSCs), and its deficiency facilitated ZIKV infection. Mechanistically, ZIKV capsid can directly interact with Dicer and block its ribonuclease activity, dampening the production of host miRNAs that are essential for neurogenesis. Interestingly, this capsid-mediated immune evasion is specific to ZIKV because capsid proteins from other close flaviviruses, e.g., dengue, yellow fever and West Nile viruses, cannot bind to Dicer or inhibit its function. By molecular mapping, we defined a ZIKV capsid H41R mutant with loss of interaction to Dicer and no longer affecting its activity. More importantly, ZIKV H41R mutant exerted almost no impact on neurogenesis in vitro when expressed in NSCs compared to wild type capsid, and in utero infection of recombinant ZIKV-H41R mutant virus resulted in less inhibition on corticogenesis than wild-type ZIKV in mouse embryos. Interestingly, the epidemic ZIKV strain reinforces the capsid-Dicer interaction by two amino acid substitution compared to ancient Africa strain. Thus, our study demonstrated that capsid-dependent suppression of Dicer function is a unique determinant of ZIKV immune evasion and pathogenesis, which may unveil a new mechanism for ZIKV-mediated microcephaly.

Understanding the role of microRNAs in the interaction of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes with an insect-specific flavivirus

Project description:The Flavivirus genus contains some of the most prevalent vector-borne viruses such as dengue, Zika and yellow fever viruses that cause devastating diseases in humans. However, the insect-specific clade of flaviviruses is restricted to mosquito hosts; albeit they have retained the general features of the genus such as genome structure and replication. The interaction between insect-specific flaviviruses (ISFs) and their mosquito hosts are largely unknown. Pathogenic flaviviruses are known to modulate host-derived microRNAs (miRNAs), a class of non-coding RNAs that are important in controlling gene expression. Alteration in miRNAs may represent changes in host gene expression and provide understanding of virus-host interactions. The role of miRNAs in ISF-mosquito interactions is largely unknown. A recently discovered Australian ISF, Palm Creek virus (PCV), has the ability to suppress medically relevant flaviviruses. Here, we investigated the potential involvement of miRNAs in PCV infection using the model mosquito Aedes aegypti. By combining small RNA sequencing and bioinformatics analysis, differentially expressed miRNAs were determined. Our results indicated that PCV infection hardly affects host miRNAs. Out of 101 reported miRNAs of Ae. aegypti, only aae-miR-2940-5p had significant altered expression over the course of infection. However, further analysis of aae-miR-2940-5p revealed that this miRNA does not have any direct impact on PCV replication in vitro. Thus, the results overall suggest that PCV infection has a limited effect on the mosquito miRNA profile and therefore, they may not play a significant role the PCV- Ae. aegypti interaction.

Project description:This study aimed at comparing gene transcription using microarrays and protein expression using 2D-DIGE between an Aedes aegypti insecticide-resistant strain (LiTOX) selected for 28 generations at the larval stage with field-collected leaf litter containing persistent Bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis (Bti) toxins and the parental strain (Bora-Bora) susceptible to all insecticides. We focused on the tissue where the mode of action of the insecticide takes place: the midgut of the larvae.
