The balance of Influenza A Virus segments is achieved by virus-derived small non-coding RNAs

ABSTRACT: Encoding only ten major proteins, Influenza A virus (IAV) gains access to both the cell and nucleus, replicates its eight genomic segments, then enters the cytoplasm to assemble and egress. This is achieved through an expansive network of interactions with the host and a coordinated production of viral components. Here we show that upon infection, primary transcription of the virus results in the accumulation of the splice product, Nuclear Export Protein (NEP), which associates with the viral polymerase leading to the synthesis of segment-specific small viral RNAs (svRNAs). Here we demonstrate that svRNA biology is responsible for coordinating segment-specific amplification and is predominantly required for amplification of the three larger polymerase segments. Generation of svRNA ambiguity results in predictable changes in segment-specific vRNA levels and up to a five log attenuation. Together, these data elucidate the molecular function of svRNAs as essential mediators responsible for maintaining a stoichiometric balance between genomic segments and establish these small RNAs as functional components of the virus.

SARS-CoV-Encoded Small RNAs Contribute to Infection-Associated Lung Pathology

Project description:Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) causes lethal disease in humans, which is characterized by exacerbated inflammatory response and extensive lung pathology. To address the relevance of small non-coding RNAs in SARS-CoV pathology, we deep sequenced RNAs from the lungs of infected mice and discovered three 18–22 nt small viral RNAs (svRNAs). The three svRNAs were derived from the nsp3 (svRNA-nsp3.1 and -nsp3.2) and N (svRNA-N) genomic regions of SARS-CoV. Biogenesis of CoV svRNAs was RNase III, cell type, and host species independent, but it was dependent on the extent of viral replication. Antagomir-mediated inhibition of svRNA-N significantly reduced in vivo lung pathology and pro-inflammatory cytokine expression. Taken together, these data indicate that svRNAs contribute to SARS-CoV pathogenesis and highlight the potential of svRNA-N antagomirs as antivirals.

Contribution of host an viral small non-coding RNAs to SARS-CoV lung pathology

Project description:Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) causes lethal disease in humans, with viral E protein promoting the exacerbated inflammatory response. By deep sequencing RNAs from the lungs of infected mice, we have addressed the relevance of small, non-coding RNAs in SARS-CoV pathology. Host microRNAs (miRNAs) expressed during infection by a virulent virus encoding the E protein were significantly enriched for cytokine-mediated inflammatory pathways when compared with attenuated SARS-CoV-∆E, suggesting contribution of miRNAs to E protein-induced inflammation. The discovery of three 18-22 nt small viral RNAs (svRNAs) derived from the nsp3 and N genomic regions of SARS-CoV in mouse lung and cell cultures is also described. Depletion of these svRNAs significantly reduced viral titers and genomic RNA levels, indicating their positive contribution to virus growth. Remarkably, svRNA-N antagomirs significantly reduced in vivo lung pathology and pro-inflammatory cytokine expression, indicating that svRNAs contribute to SARS-CoV pathogenesis and highlighting the potential of these antagomirs as antivirals.

RACK1 associates with RNA-binding proteins Vigilin and SERBP1 to influence dengue virus replication

Project description:Dengue virus (DENV), a re-emerging virus transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes, causes severe pathogenesis in humans. No effective treatment is available against this virus. We recently identified the scaffold protein RACK1 as a component of the DENV replication complex, a macromolecular complex essential for viral genome amplification. Here, we show that RACK1 is important for DENV infection. RACK1 mediates DENV replication through binding to the 40S ribosomal subunit. Mass spectrometry analysis of RACK1 partners coupled to a loss-of-function screen identified the RNA binding proteins Vigilin and SERBP1 as DENV host dependency factors. Vigilin and SERBP1 interact with DENV viral RNA (vRNA), forming a ternary complex with RACK1 to mediate viral replication. Overall, our results indicate that RACK1 recruits Vigilin and SERBP1, linking the DENV vRNA to the translation machinery for optimal translation and replication.

Influenza viral RNA pulldown MS in THP-1 cells

Project description:Due to the RNA nature of their genomes, influenza viruses have to utilize many RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) of both viral and host origin, for their replication. To uncover the comprehensive vRNA-host protein interactions, we performed affinity purification coupled with mass spectrometry (AP-MS) analysis of influenza vRNA complexes. The eight vRNA segments of H7N9 were transcribed and individually labeled with biotin in vitro and incubated with IAV virus-infected THP-1 cells, and vRNA complexes were enriched streptavidin magnetic beads and analyzed by mass spectrometry

The Identification and Characterization of Sindbis Virus RNA:Host Protein Interactions

Project description:Arthropod-borne viruses, such as the members of genus Alphavirus, are a significant concern to global public health. As obligate intracellular pathogens, RNA viruses must interact with the host cell machinery to establish, and complete, their viral lifecycles. Despite considerable efforts to define the host/pathogen interactions essential for alphaviral replication, an unbiased and inclusive assessment of alphaviral RNA:protein interactions has not been undertaken. Moreover, the biological and molecular importance of these interactions, in the full context of their molecular function as RNA-binding proteins, has not been fully realized. The data presented here introduces a robust viral RNA:protein discovery method to elucidate the Sindbis virus (SINV) RNA:Protein host interface. Cross-Link Assisted mRNP Purification (CLAMP) assessment reveals an extensive array of host/pathogen interactions centered on the viral RNAs (vRNAs). After prioritization of the host proteins associated with the vRNAs, we identified the site of Protein:vRNA interaction via a CLIP-seq approach and assessed the consequences of the RNA:protein binding event of hnRNP K, hnRNP I, and hnRNP M in regards to viral infection. Herein we demonstrate that mutation of the prioritized hnRNP:vRNA interaction sites effectively disrupted the hnRNP:vRNA interaction. Correlating with disrupted hnRNP:vRNA binding, SINV growth kinetics were reduced relative to wild type parental viral infections in a vertebrate and invertebrate tissue culture models of infection. The molecular mechanism leading to reduced viral growth kinetics was found to be reduced vRNA accumulation and dysregulated structural gene expression. Collectively, this study further defines the scope and importance of the alphavirus host/pathogen vRNA:protein interactions.

The ubiquitin landscape of the Influenza A Virus polymerase

Project description:During influenza A virus (IAV) infections, viral proteins are targeted by cellular E3 ligases for modification with ubiquitin. Here, we decipher and functionally explore the ubiquitin landscape of the IAV polymerase during infection of human alveolar epithelial cells by applying mass spectrometry analysis of immuno-purified K-ε-GG- (di-glycyl)-remnant-bearing peptides. We identified 59 modified lysines across all three subunits of the viral polymerase of which 17 distinctively affected mRNA transcription, vRNA replication and the generation of recombinant viruses via non-proteolytic mechanisms. Moreover, our results demonstrate that the ubiquitinated residue K578 in the PB1 thumb domain is crucial for the dynamic structural transitions of the viral polymerase that are required for vRNA replication. Mutations K578A and K578R impeded the steps of cRNA stabilization and vRNA transcription, respectively, and affected NP binding as well as polymerase dimerization. Collectively, our results indicate that ubiquitin-mediated disruption of the charge-dependent interaction between PB1-K578 and PB2-E72 is required to coordinate polymerase dimerization and facilitate vRNA replication, which demonstrates that IAV exploit the cellular ubiquitin system to modulate the activity of the viral polymerase for the regulation of viral replication.

The transcriptional landscape of Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus infection

Project description:No vaccines or antivirals are approved against Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus (VEEV) infection in humans. To improve our understanding of VEEV-host interactions, we simultaneously profiled host transcriptome and viral RNA (vRNA) in thousands of single cells during infection of human astrocytes. Host transcription was suppressed, and “superproducer cells” with extreme vRNA abundance and altered transcriptome emerged during the first viral life cycle. Cells with increased structural-to-nonstructural transcript ratio demonstrated upregulation of trafficking genes at later time points. Loss- and gain-of-function experiments confirmed pro- and antiviral host factors. Single-cell deep sequencing analysis identified a viral E3 protein mutation altering host gene expression. Lastly, comparison with data from other viruses highlighted common and unique pathways perturbed by infection across evolutionary scales. This study provides a high-resolution characterization of the cellular response to VEEV infection, identifies candidate targets for antivirals, and establishes a comparative single-cell approach to study the evolution of virus-host interactions.

Dynamic responses of primary human bronchial epithelial cells to influenza virus, viral RNA and interferon-beta

Project description:We defined the major transcriptional responses in primary human bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs) after either infection with influenza or treatment with relevant ligands. We used four different strategies, each highlighting distinct aspects of the response. (1) cells were infected with the wild-type PR8 influenza virus that can mount a complete replicative cycle. (2) cells were transfected with viral RNA (âvRNAâ) isolated from influenza particles. This does not result in the production of viral proteins or particles and identifies the effect of RNA-sensing pathways (e.g., RIG-I.). (3) Cells were treated with interferon beta (IFNb), to distinguish the portion of the response which is mediated through Type I IFNs. (4) Cells were infected with a PR8 virus lacking the NS1 gene (âDNS1â). The NS1 protein normally inhibits vRNA- or IFNb-induced pathways, and its deletion can reveal an expanded response to infection. HBECs were stimulated with a 15 minute pulse of 1000U/ml IFNÃ (PBL, Piscataway, NJ), 100ng/ml vRNA (purified directly from PR8 virus) with LTX transfection reagent (Invitrogen; Carlsbad, California), wild type H1N1 influenza (A/PR/8/34) or ?NS1 virus (PR8 with a deleted NS1 gene, gift from Dr. Garcia-Sastre). Viruses were used at a multiplicity of infection (moi) of 5. Control samples were incubated with media or LTX under the same conditions. Cells were washed, supplemented with warm media and harvested at 11 timepoints (0, .25, .5, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 18 hours post-treatment). HBECs were seeded in 6 well plates at a concentration of 250,000/well 18 hours prior to stimultaion. Cells were stimulated with a 15 minute pulse of IFNb, vRNA, infected with PR8 influenza or NS1 deleted influenza, or mock treated

Segment-specific kinetics of mRNA, cRNA and vRNA during influenza infection

Project description:Influenza A virus (IAV) is a segmented negative-sense RNA virus and is the cause of major global epidemics and pandemics. The replication of IAV is complex, involving both transcription and replication, during which three distinct RNA species, namely mRNA, cRNA, and vRNA are generated for all eight genome segments. While understanding IAV replication kinetics is important for drug development and improving vaccine production, current methods for studying IAV kinetics has been limited by the ability to detect all three different RNA species in a scalable manner. Here were report the development of a novel pipeline using total stranded RNA-Seq, named Influenza Virus Enumerator of RNA Transcripts (InVERT) which allows for the simultaneous quantification of all three RNA species of IAV. Using InVERT provides a full landscape of the IAV replication kinetics, in which we found that different groups of viral genes followed different traits of kinetics. During a cycle of infection, the RNA-dependent RNA Polymerase (RdRP) produced more vRNA than mRNA while some other genes (NP, NS, HA) consistently make more mRNA than vRNA. vRNA expression levels do not correlate with the cRNA expression, suggesting complex regulations of vRNA synthesis. Furthermore, by studying the kinetics of a virus lacking the capacity to generate new polymerase complexes, we found evidence that further supports the model that cRNA synthesis requires newly synthesized RdRP and that incoming RdRP can only generate mRNA.
