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

ABSTRACT: 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.

Effect of the noncoding RNA produced by ZIKA virus (ZIKV) on expression of Aedes aegypti genes

Project description:We report that ZIKV noncoding RNA (sfRNA) affect expression of mosquito genes upon ZIKV infection. We constructed sfRNA-deficient ZIKV mutant (xrRNA2') and conducted transcriptome-wide gene expression profiling of mosquitos infected with WT and xrRNA2' viruses. We found that sfRNA inhibits apoptosis in the infected tissues of Ae. aegypti by altering expression of mosquito genes that control cell death and survival.

Global transcriptome analysis of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes in response to Zika virus infection

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV) of the Flaviviridae family is a recently emerged mosquito-borne virus that has been implicated in the surge of the number of microcephaly instances in south America. The virus is transmitted mainly by the mosquito Aedes aegypti that also vectors dengue virus. Considering rather recent rapid spread of the virus and its declaration as a global health emergency by the World Health Organization, little is known about the interactions of the virus with the mosquito vector. In this study, we investigated the transcriptome profiles of whole Ae. aegypti mosquitoes in response to ZIKV infection at 2, 7 and 14 days post-infection using deep sequencing. Results showed a large number of transcripts were altered at each time point following infection, but 18 transcripts were commonly changed at the three time points. The outcomes provide a basic understanding of Ae. aegypti responses to ZIKV and help determining host factors involved in replication or anti-viral response against the virus.

Zika virus alters the microRNA expression profile and elicits an RNAi response in Aedes aegpyti mosquitoes

Project description:We sequenced the small RNA profiles in ZIKV-infected and non-infected Ae. aegypti mosquitoes at 2, 7 and 14 days post-infection. ZIKV induced an RNAi response in the mosquito with virus-derived short interfering RNAs dramatically increased in abundance post-infection. Further, we found 17 host miRNAs that were modulated by the ZIKV infection at all time points.

Comprehensive quantitative proteome analysis of Aedes aegypti to interrogate Wolbachia pipientis and Zika virus interference phenomenon

Project description:Zika virus is a global public health emergency due to its association with microcephaly, Guillain-Barré syndrome, neuropathy, and myelitis in children and adults. A total of 87 countries have had evidence of autochthonous mosquito-borne transmission of Zika virus, distributed across four continents, and no antivirus therapy or vaccines are available. Therefore, several strategies have been developed to target the main mosquito vector, Aedes aegypti, to reduce the burden of different arboviruses. Among such strategies, the use of the maternally-inherited endosymbiont Wolbachia pipientis has been applied successfully to reduce virus susceptibility and decrease transmission. However, the mechanisms by which Wolbachia orchestrate resistance to ZIKV infection remains to be elucidated. In this study, we apply quantitative isobaric mass spectrometry-based proteomics to quantify proteins and identify pathways altered during ZIKV infection; Wolbachia infection; co-infection with Wolbachia/ZIKV in the Ae. aegypti. We show that Wolbachia regulates proteins involved in ROS production, regulates humoral immune response, and antioxidant production. The reduction of ZIKV polyprotein in the presence of Wolbachia in the mosquitoes was determined by mass spectrometry and corroborates the idea that Wolbachia helps to block ZIKV infections in Ae. aegypti. The present study offers a rich resource of data to help elucidate mechanisms by which Wolbachia orchestrate resistance to ZIKV infection in Ae. aegypti.

Interspecies isobaric labeling-based proteomics reveals protein changes in the ovary of Aedes aegypti co-infected with ZIKV and Wolbachia

Project description:Zika is a vector-borne disease caused by an arbovirus (ZIKV) and overwhelmingly transmitted by Ae. aegypti. This disease is linked to adverse fetal outcomes, mostly microcephaly in newborns, and other clinical aspects such as acute febrile illness and neurologic complications, for example Guillain-Barré syndrome. One of the actual most promising strategies to mitigate arbovirus transmission involves releasing Ae. aegypti mosquitoes carrying the maternally inherited endosymbiont bacteria Wolbachia pipientis. The presence of Wolbachia is associated with a reduced susceptibility to arboviruses and a fitness cost in mosquito life-history traits as fecundity and fertility. However, the mechanisms by which Wolbachia influences metabolic pathways leading to differences in egg production remains poorly known. In order to investigate the impact of co-infections on the reproductive tract of the mosquito, we applied a quantitative proteomic strategy based on an isobaric labeling to investigate the influence of Wolbachia wMel and ZIKV infection in Ae. aegypti ovaries. For what we know, this is the most complete proteome of Ae. aegypti ovaries reported so far, with a total of 3913 proteins identified. We were able to quantify a total of 1044 Wolbachia proteins in complex sample tissue of Ae. aegypti ovary employing mass spectrometry-based quantitative methods. Furthermore, we describe and discuss proteins and pathways altered in Ae. aegypti during ZIKV infections, Wolbachia infections, co-infection Wolbachia/ZIKV, and compared with no infection, focusing on immune and reproductive aspects of Ae. aegypti.

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.

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

Project description: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.

The effect of permethrin resistance on Aedes aegypti transcriptome following ingestion of Zika virus infected blood

Project description:Aedes aegypti (L.) is the primary vector of many emerging arboviruses. Insecticide resistance among mosquito populations is a consequence of the application of insecticides for mosquito control. We used RNA-sequencing to compare transcriptomes between permethrin resistant and susceptible strains of Florida Ae. aegypti in response to Zika virus infection. A total of 2,459 transcripts were expressed at significantly different levels between resistant and susceptible Ae. aegypti. Gene ontology analysis placed these genes into 7 categories of biological processes. The 863 transcripts were expressed at significantly different levels between two strains (up/down regulated) more than 2-fold. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis validated Zika-infected response, and suggested a highly overexpressed P450, with AAEL014617 and AAEL006798 as potential candidates for the molecular mechanism of permethrin resistance in Ae. aegypti. Our findings indicated that most detoxification enzymes and immune system enzymes altered their gene expression between the two strains of Ae. aegypti in response to Zika virus infection. Understanding the interactions of arboviruses with resistant mosquito vectors at the molecular level allows for the possible development of new approaches in mitigating arbovirus transmission. This information sheds light on Zika-induced changes in the insecticide resistance of Ae. aegypti with implications for mosquito control strategies.

Inter and intra-lineage genetic diversity of Zika virus differs for American isolates

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV) is a mosquito-transmitted positive-sense RNA virus in the family Flaviviridae. ZIKV infections are associated with neurodevelopmental deficiencies termed Congenital Zika Syndrome. ZIKV strains are grouped into three phylogenetic lineages: East African, West African, and Asian, which contains the American lineage. RNA virus genomes exist as genetically-related sequences. The heterogeneity of these viral populations is implicated in viral fitness, and genome diversity is correlated to virulence. This study examines genetic diversity of representative ZIKV strains from all lineages utilizing next generation sequencing (NGS). Inter-lineage diversity results indicate that ZIKV lineages differ broadly from each other; however, intra-lineage comparisons of American ZIKV strains isolated from human serum or placenta show differences in diversity when compared to ZIKVs from Asia and West Africa. This study describes the first comprehensive NGS analysis of all ZIKV lineages and posits that sub-consensus-level diversity may provide a framework for understanding ZIKV fitness during infection.
