HCMV deletion models enable the identification of physiologically relevant T-cell epitopes

ABSTRACT: In healthy individuals, immune control of persistent human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection is effectively mediated by virus-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. However, identification of the repertoire of T-cell specificities for HCMV is hampered by the immense protein coding capacity of this betaherpesvirus. We applied a novel approach which employs HCMV deletion mutant viruses, lacking HLA class I immunoevasins. Infection of human fibroblast cell lines with those mutant viruses allowed the direct identification of naturally presented HCMV-derived HLA ligands by mass spectrometry. Using this strategy, we identified 368 unique HCMV-derived HLA class I ligands representing an unexpectedly broad panel of 123 HCMV antigens. Functional characterization revealed memory T-cell responses in seropositive individuals for a substantial proportion (28%) of these novel peptides. The unbiased identification of naturally presented viral epitopes enabled a comprehensive and systematic assessment of the physiological repertoire of anti-HCMV T-cell specificities in seropositive individuals. This approach proved to be superior to procedures applying in silico analysis to identify true viral antigens.

HLA-C*05:01 and HLA-C*07:02 from 721.221 cells

Project description:HLA-C expresion varies widely across the different HLA-C alleles. MicroRNA binding can partly explain the differences in HLA-C allele expression however other contributing factors still remain undetermined. Here we use two common HLA-C alleles, HLA-C*05:01 and HLA-C*07:02, to explore differences in expression levels. Using functional, structural and peptide repertoire comparisons we demonstrate that HLA-C expression levels are not only modulated at the RNA level but also at the protein level. This dataset contains RAW data and database search results for HLA-C*05:01 and HLA-C*07:02 from the 721.221 cell line.

MHC-I peptidome analysis of human foreskin fibroblasts

Project description:Ribosome profiling (Ribo-seq) recently revealed the expression of thousands of short open reading frames (sORFs) in eukaryotic cells. They encode for a class of instable peptides, which evade experimental validation by whole-proteome mass spectrometry. Here, we show that computational elimination of experimental noise from Ribo-seq data unravels fundamental new aspects of sORF biology. Based on the revised annotation of cellular sORFs, we show that sORF-derived peptides are efficiently incorporated into MHC-I. sORFs thus encode a novel class of stress-responsive antigens in human cells. Our findings have broad implications on the functional, regulatory and immunogenic role of sORFs in fundamental cellular processes like infection and cancer.

Unsupervised mining of HLA-I peptidomes reveals unsuspected false positives and new binding motifs

Project description:Modern antigen vaccine designs and studies of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-mediated immune responses rely heavily on the knowledge of HLA allele-specific binding motifs and computational prediction of antigen-HLA binding affinity. Breakthroughs in HLA peptidomics have considerably expanded the databases of natural HLA antigens and enabled detailed characterizations of antigen-HLA binding specificity. However, cautions must be made when analyzing HLA peptidomics data because identified peptides may be contaminants or may weakly bind to the HLA molecules. Here, a hybrid de novo peptide sequencing approach was applied to large-scale mono-allelic HLA peptidomics datasets to uncover new antigens and refine current knowledge of HLA binding motifs. Up to 12-40% contaminations in the form of tryptic peptides were identified in the peptidomics data of HLA alleles whose binding motifs do not involve an arginine or a lysine at the C-terminus. Thousands of these peptides were reported in a community database as positive antigens and might be erroneously used to train prediction models. Furthermore, unsupervised clustering of identified antigens not only revealed additional binding motifs for several HLA class I alleles but also effectively isolated outliers which were confirmed to be false positives in a binding experiment. Overall, our findings expanded the knowledge of HLA binding specificity and indicated that a more careful HLA peptidomics data interpretation protocol is needed to ensure the high quality of community antigen databases.

The HLA ligandome comprises a limited repertoire of O-GlcNAcylated antigens preferentially associated with HLA-B07:02

Project description:Mass-spectrometry based immunopeptidomics has provided unprecedented insights into antigen presentation, not only charting an enormous ligandome of self-antigens, but also cancer neo-antigens and peptide antigens harbouring post-translational modifications. Here we concentrate on the latter, focusing on the small subset of HLA Class I peptides (less than 1%) that has been observed to be post-translationally modified (PTM) by a O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc). Just like neo-antigens these modified antigens may have specific immunomodulatory functions. Here we compiled from literature, and a new dataset originating from JY B cell lymphoblastoid line cells, a concise albeit comprehensive list of O-GlcNAcylated HLA class I peptides. The cumulative list of O-GlcNAcylated HLA peptides originates from diverse datasets, entailing normal and cancer cell lines as well as tissue samples. Interestingly, the overlap in detected O-GlcNAcylated HLA peptides as well as their source proteins is strikingly high. From the compiled list we extract that O-GlcNAcylated HLA Class I peptides are preferentially presented by the HLA-B07:02 allele. This allele accommodates a Proline anchoring site at position 2, and a binding groove that can accommodate the recently proposed consensus sequence for O-GlcNAcylation, P(V/A/T/S)g(S/T). Most of the O-GlcNAcylated HLA peptides originate from nuclear proteins, notably transcription factors. The conclusions drawn from the compiled list, may assist to predict novel O-GlcNAcylated HLA antigens, which will likely be presented best by patients harbouring HLA-B7:02, or related, alleles that uses Proline as anchoring residue.

Thermostability profiling of MHC-bound peptides: a new dimension in immunopeptidomics and design of immunotherapeutics

Project description:The features of peptide antigens that contribute to their immunogenicity are poorly understood. Although the stability of peptide-MHC (pMHC) is known to be important, current assays assess this interaction only for peptides in isolation and not in the context of natural antigen processing and presentation. Here, we present a novel method which provides a comprehensive and unbiased measure of pMHC stability for thousands of individual ligands detected simultaneously by mass spectrometry (MS). The method allows rapid assessment of intra- and inter-allelic differences in pMHC stability and reveals broader profiles of stability than previously appreciated. The additional dimensionality of the data facilitated the training of a model which improved the prediction of peptide immunogenicity, specifically of cancer neoepitopes. This assay can be applied to any cells bearing MHC or MHC-like molecules, offering insight into not only the endogenous immunopeptidome, but also that of neoepitopes and pathogen-derived sequences.

Human uterine Natural Killer cells regulate differentiation of extravillous trophoblast early in pregnancy - bulk RNA-seq data

Project description:An allorecognition system depending on interactions between uterine Natural Killer (uNK) cells and placental extravillous trophoblast (EVT) during early pregnancy influences reproductive outcomes in humans. Our previous immunogenetic studies show that particular combinations of maternal Killer Immunoglobulin-like Receptors (KIR) in uNK cells with fetal HLA-C variants on EVT are associated with disorders of pregnancy, especially pre-eclampsia. To identify responses stimulated in uNK cells specifically when activating KIR (KIR2DS1) binds to C2+HLA-C, a combination protective against pre-eclampsia, we modelled KIR-HLA interactions by co-culturing uNK cells with the 721.221 HLA-null cell line transfected to express either C1+ or C2+HLA-C molecules, followed by transcriptome profiling by RNA sequencing. We detect the secretion of key cytokines by uNK cells under the protective combination between KIR2DS1 and C2+HLA-C.

Arginine (di)methylated Human Leukocyte Antigen class I peptides are favorably presented by HLA-B*07

Project description:Specific alterations in protein post-translational modification (PTMs) are recognized hallmarks of diseases. These modifications potentially provide a unique disease-related source of Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) class I-presented peptide antigens that can elicit specific immune responses. Although, phosphorylated HLA peptides have received already some attention, the frequency and characteristics of arginine methylated HLA class I peptide presentation have not been explored in detail. In a model human B-cell line we detected by mass spectrometry (MS) 149 HLA class I peptides harboring mono- and/or di-methylated arginine residues. The source proteins of these antigens play important roles in signal transduction, gene transcription and DNA repair. A striking preference was observed in presentation of arginine (di)methylated peptides predicted to bind HLA-B*07 molecules, most likely because the binding motifs of this allele resemble the substrates for arginine methyl-transferases. The HLA-B*07 peptides were preferentially di-methylated at the P3 position in the sequence, thus consecutively to the proline anchor residue at position P2. Such a proline-arginine sequnce has been associated with the arginine methyl-transferases CARM1 and PRMT5. Making use of the specific neutral losses in the MS/MS spectra we could further assign most of the peptides to be asymmetrically di-methylated, most likely by CARM1. The here presented data expand our knowledge of processing and presentation of arginine (di)methylated HLA class I peptides, indicating that this type of modification is frequently presented for recognition by T-cells and might thus present a potential target for immunotherapy.
