Project description:Stress granules are small RNA-protein granules that modify the translational landscape during cellular stress to promote survival. The RhoGTPase RhoA is implicated in the formation of RNA stress granules. Our data demonstrate that the cytokinetic proteins ECT2 and AurkB are localized to stress granules in human astrocytoma cells. AurkB and its downstream target histone-3 are phosphorylated during arsenite-induced stress. Chemical (AZD1152-HQPA) and siRNA inhibition of AurkB results in fewer and smaller stress granules when analyzed utilizing high throughput fluorescent based cellomics assays. RNA immunoprecipitation with the known stress granule aggregates TIAR and G3BP1 was performed on astrocytoma cells and subsequent analysis revealed that astrocytoma stress granules harbour unique mRNAs for various cellular pathways including cellular migration, metabolism, translation and transcriptional regulation. Human astrocytoma cell stress granules contain mRNA that are known to be involved in glioma signaling and the mTOR pathway. These data provide evidence that RNA stress granules are a novel form of epigenetic regulation in astrocytoma cells, which may be targetable by chemical inhibitors and enhance astrocytoma susceptiblity to conventional therapy such as radiation and chemotherapy. Astrocytoma cells were either untreated or treated with arsenite to induce stress granule formation and RNA immunoprecipitates were analyzed by exon array analysis. RNA species that were enriched in TIAR RIPs and G3BP1 RIPS, respectively were compared to compared to TIAR and G3BP1 RIPs from untreated cells and input controls. Ingenuity pathway analysis was performed on the stress granule enriched mRNAs from the TIAR and G3BP1 RIPs to identify significant functional biology networks.

Project description:We are here presenting a new paracrine induction of RNA granules by viruses. Infection by viruses imposes major stress on the host cell. In response to this stress, infected cells can induce several defence mechanisms, which include the activation of stress response pathways and the innate immune response. These often result in an inhibition of translation culminating in the assembly of cytoplasmic granules called stress granules (SGs). SGs assembly follows from liquid phase separation of aggregation-prone proteins such G3BP1 and TIA-1, leading to the sequestration of mRNAs. Because this threatens viral gene expression, viruses need to evade these stress response pathways to propagate. Using feline calicivirus (FCV), surrogate for norovirus, the main virus responsible for gastroenteritis outbreaks worldwide, we previously showed that FCV impairs SGs assembly by cleaving the scaffold protein G3BP1. Interestingly, we observed that uninfected bystander cells assembled G3BP1 granules, suggesting a paracrine response trigged by the infection. We now present evidence that virus-free supernatant generated from infected cells can induce the formation of RNA granules. We have characterised the dynamic of the granules assembly via confocal microscopy. Moreover, we provide an understanding of paracrine granules function and specificity through their affinity purification followed by proteomics and RNAseq analysis of their proteins and mRNAs content. This helps to define rules of assembly and novel functions for paracrine granules highlighting fundamental differences with canonical stress granules.

Project description:Viral proteins are known to be methylated by host protein arginine methyltransferases (PRMTs) playing critical roles during viral infections. Herein, we show that PRMT1 methylates SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid (N) protein at residues R95 and R177 within RGG/RG sequences. Arginine methylation of N protein was confirmed by immunoblotting viral proteins extracted from SARS-CoV-2 virions isolated by cell culture. We demonstrate that arginine methylation of N protein is required for its RNA binding capacity, since treatment with a type I PRMT inhibitor (MS023) or substitution of R95K or R177K inhibited interaction with the 5’-UTR of the SARS-CoV-2 genomic RNA. We defined the N interactome in HEK293 cells with or without MS023 treatment and identified PRMT1 and many of its RGG/RG substrates including the known interactor, G3BP1, and other components of stress granules (SG). Methylation of N protein at R95 regulates another function namely its property to suppress the formation of SGs. MS023 treatment or R95K substitution blocked N-mediated suppression of SGs. Also, the co-expression of methylarginine reader TDRD3 quenched N-mediated suppression of SGs in a dose-dependent manner. Finally, pre-treatment of VeroE6 cells with MS023 significantly reduced SARS-CoV-2 replication. With type I PRMT inhibitors being in clinical trials for cancer treatment, inhibiting arginine methylation to target the later stages of the viral life cycle such as viral genome packaging and assembly of virions may be an additional therapeutic application of these drugs.

Project description:Proteomic analysis of murine stress granule and G3BP1 granulome in infected cells. BV2 GFP-G3BP1 cells were either treated with 0.1 mM arsenite for 1h to induce SG assembly or infected with MNV for 9h. G3BP1 granules were enriched by sequential centrifugation and purified by immunoprecipitation using antibodies to GFP (to trap GFP-G3BP1) or IgG (as a control) followed by pull down with Protein A-conjugated epoxy Dynabeads as previously described. To characterize the identity of G3BP1 partners within these, Mass Spectrometric analysis was performed.

Project description:Pooled CRISPR knockout (KO) screens using live viruses are a proven and valuable approach for identifying essential host factors acting across viral life cycles. Here we describe the development of a pooled genome-wide CRISPR KO screening approach using stable viral replicon cell lines to specifically identify host factors essential for viral replication. Virus replicons are non-infectious, therefore enabling the study of highly virulent viruses under standard biosafety level 2 containment. We developed a stable fluorescent dengue virus type 2 (DENV-2) replicon cell line to perform a pooled genome-wide FACS-based CRISPR KO screen. This benchmark DENV-2 replicon screen successfully identified host genes previously known to be required for viral DENV-2 replication (e.g., endoplasmic reticulum membrane complex and oligosaccharyltransferase complex components) and confirmed two additional genes (DOHH and ZFP36L2) involved in replication that have not been recovered in prior live virus screens. We applied this replicon screening approach to two highly divergent viruses: chikungunya virus (CHIKV), a positive-sense RNA virus that replicates at the plasma membrane, and Ebola virus (EBOV), a negative-sense RNA virus that replicates in cytoplasmic inclusion bodies. The CHIKV replicon screen identified two genes known to be required for replication (G3BP1 and G3BP2) and several additional, novel genes (CLEC4G, CSDE1, GOLGA7, HNF1A, and PCBD1). We verified two of them (CSDE1 and GOLGA7) in live CHIKV replication assays. A distinct set of genes (EHMT1, EHMT2, and USP7) were recovered in the EBOV replicon screen and were further confirmed using independent transient transfection assays. Thus, viral replicon-based screens provide a useful approach that can be extended to viruses of diverse taxa to identify host pathways essential for viral replication and to uncover potential novel targets for host-directed medical countermeasures.

Project description:The SARS-CoV-2 genome encodes 16 non-structural proteins (Nsps), with Nsp2 being the least conserved and least understood. In this study, we found a crucial role of Nsp2 in the SARS-CoV-2 life cycle and demonstrated its interaction with GIGYF2, which causes the relocation of GIGYF2 to near double membrane vesicles (DMVs) and the enhancement of viral protein production. Deletion of the Nsp2-coding region from the viral genome led to a drastic reduction in viral RNA synthesis early in infection (3–4 hours post infection). Through interactome analysis of Nsp2 in virus-infected cells, we identified GIGYF2—a protein involved in translational regulation—as a key partner of Nsp2. We confirm the interaction between GIGYF2 and Nsp2 from both SARS-CoV-1 and SARS-CoV-2. Depleting GIGYF2 or its cofactor ZNF598 phenocopied the replication defects observed with Nsp2 deletion, suggesting their critical roles in viral reproduction. Moreover, GIGYF2 and ZNF598 relocate to areas near DMVs, viral replication sites, upon infection. This relocation does not happen with the Nsp2-deleted virus, indicating Nsp2’s role in directing GIGYF2 to DMVs. Using formaldehyde crosslinking and immunoprecipitation-sequencing experiments (fCLIP-seq), we found that GIGYF2 interacts with viral RNAs, particularly in regions encoding Nsp3, M, and Orf6. Depletion of GIGYF2 resulted in decreased expression of these proteins. Our findings reveal the function of Nsp2 in supporting viral protein production by exploiting GIGYF2 as a host factor.

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.
