Project description:West Nile virus (WNV) is an emerging mosquito-borne flavivirus, related to dengue virus and Zika virus. To gain insight into host pathways involved in WNV infection, we performed a systematic affinity-tag purification mass spectrometry (AP-MS) study to identify 259 WNV-interacting human proteins. RNAi screening revealed 26 genes that both interact with WNV proteins and influence WNV infection. We found that WNV, dengue and Zika virus capsids interact with a conserved subset of proteins that impact infection. These include the exon-junction complex (EJC) recycling factor, PYM1, which is antiviral against all three viruses. The EJC has roles in nonsense-mediated decay (NMD), and we found that both the EJC and NMD are antiviral. Mechanistically, we found that the EJC protein RBM8A directly binds WNV RNA. To counteract this antiviral defense, flavivirus infection inhibits NMD and the interaction of capsid with PYM1 interferes with EJC protein function and localization. Moreover, depletion of PYM1 attenuates RBM8A binding to viral RNA, suggesting that WNV sequesters PYM1 to protect viral RNA from decay. Together, these data suggest a complex interplay between the virus and host in regulating NMD and the EJC complex.

Project description:RNA interference (RNAi) is an antiviral immunity conserved in diverse eukaryotes including mammals, while viruses encodes viral suppressors of RNAi (VSRs) as countermeasures. However, the physiological impact of RNAi on viral infection in mammals has not been fully assessed, and it also remains unknown whether antiviral RNAi can be therapeutically exploited. Here, we show that peptides designed to target enterovirus A71 (EV-A71)-encoded protein 3A, a well-characterized VSR, triggered an effective antiviral response. These VSR-targeting peptides, particularly ER-DRI, abrogated the VSR function of 3A, which enabled EV-A71-derived siRNA production and unlocked RNAi response that potently inhibited EV-A71 infection in mammals. ER-DRI treatment elicited a strong in vivo antiviral RNAi response that protected mice against lethal EV-A71 challenge. It also potently inhibited another enterovirus, Coxsackievirus-A16, dependently of RNAi. Our findings demonstrate that antiviral RNAi does have a physiologically important impact in mammals and targeting VSRs is a promising strategy for antiviral therapies.

Project description:Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) protect against microbial invasion by detecting specific molecular patterns found in pathogens and initiating an immune response. While microbial-derived PRR ligands have been extensively characterized, the contribution and relevance of endogenous ligands to PRR activation remains overlooked. Here, we characterize the landscape of endogenous ligands that engage RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs) upon infection by different RNA viruses. In each infection, several RNAs transcribed by RNA polymerase III (Pol3) specifically engaged RLRs, particularly the family of Y RNAs. Sensing of Y RNAs was dependent on their mimicking of viral secondary structure and their 5’-triphosphate extremity. Further, we found that HIV-1 triggered a VPR-dependent downregulation of RNA triphosphatase DUSP11 in vitro and in vivo, inducing a transcriptome-wide change of cellular RNA 5’-triphosphorylation that licenses Y RNA immunogenicity. Overall, our work uncovers the contribution of endogenous RNAs to antiviral immunity and demonstrates the importance of this pathway in HIV-1 infection.

Project description:Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) protect against host invasion by detecting specific molecular patterns found in pathogens and initiating an immune response. While microbial-derived PRR ligands have been extensively characterized, the contribution and relevance of endogenous ligands to PRR activation during viral infection remain overlooked. In this work, we characterize the landscape of endogenous ligands that engage RIG-I-like receptors upon infection by a positive-sense RNA virus, a negative-sense RNA virus or a retrovirus. We found that several endogenous RNAs transcribed by RNA polymerase 3 (Pol3), and in particular the Y-RNA family of small non-coding repeats, bind and activate RIG-I. We show that this recognition is dependent on Y-RNA mimicking viral secondary structure and its 5’-triphosphate extremity. Further, we found that HIV-1 infection triggers a VPR-dependent downregulation of RNA triphosphatase DUSP11 in vitro and in vivo, leading to an increase of Y-RNA 5’-triphosphorylation that enables their immunogenicity. Importantly, we show that altering DUSP11 expression is sufficient to induce a type-I interferon and T cell activation transcriptional program associated with HIV-1 infection. Overall, our work uncovers the critical contribution of endogenous RNAs ligands to antiviral immunity and demonstrates the role of this pathway in HIV-1 infection.

Project description:Plants and invertebrates protect themselves from viruses through RNA interference (RNAi), yet it remains unknown whether this defense mechanism exists in mammals. Antiviral RNAi involves the processing of viral long double-stranded (ds) RNA molecules into small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) by the ribonuclease (RNAse) III Dicer. These siRNAs are incorporated into effector complex(es) containing members of the Argonaute (Ago) protein family and guide silencing of complementary target viral RNAs. Here, we detect the accumulation of phased Dicer-dependent virus-derived siRNA (viRNAs) and demonstrate their loading into Ago2 after infection of mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells with Encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV). We further show that the production of these viRNAs is drastically reduced, yet not completely abolished, if ES cells are first induced to differentiate before infection. Finally, we reveal that the mammalian virus Nodamura virus (NoV) encodes for a protein that counteracts such antiviral RNAi in ES cells supporting the existence of an effective RNAi-based immunity in mammals.

Project description:Genes encoding dodecin proteins are present in almost 20% of archaeal and in more than 50% of bacterial genomes. Archaeal dodecins bind riboflavin (vitamin B2), are thought to play a role in flavin homeostasis and possibly also help to protect cells from radical or oxygenic stress. Bacterial dodecins were found to bind riboflavin-5’-phosphate (also called flavin mononucleotide or FMN) and coenzyme A, but their physiological function remained unknown. In this study, we set out to investigate the relevance of dodecins for flavin metabolism and oxidative stress management in the phylogenetically related bacteria Streptomyces coelicolor and Streptomyces davawensis. Therfore we have treated Streptomyces coelicolor wildtype, Streptomyces davawensis wildytype and Streptomyces davawensis dodecin deletion strain with plumbagin, a compound, which induces oxidative stress in exponential and stationary growth phase and analysed the transcriptome via RNA-seq (Illumina TruSeq stranded mRNA libraries sequenced on Illumina HiSeq rapid mode 2 x 70nt PE).
