Targeting G9a Regulated m6A Modification Pathway to Hinder SARS-CoV-2 Replication

ABSTRACT: N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification pathway is hijacked by several RNA viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, making it an attractive host-directed target for development of broad-spectrum antivirals. Here, we show that histone methyltransferase G9a, through its interaction with METTL3, regulates SARS-CoV-2 mediated rewiring of host m6A methylome to ultimately promote turnover, abundance, secretion and/or phosphorylation of various viral receptors and proteases, transcription factors, cytokines/chemokines, coagulation & angiogenesis associated proteins, and fibrosis markers. More importantly, drugs targeting G9a and its associated protein EZH2 are potent inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 replication and reverse multi-omic effects of coronavirus infection in human alveolar epithelial cells (A549-hACE2) and COVID-19 patient PBMCs - with similar changes seen in multiorgan autopsy samples from COVID-19 patients. Altogether, we extend G9a function(s) beyond transcription to translational regulation during COVID-19 pathogenesis and show that targeting this master regulatory complex represents a new strategy (drug-class) that can be leveraged to combat emerging anti-viral resistance and infections.

The RNA demethylase FTO controls m6A marking on SARS-CoV-2 and classifies COVID-19 severity in patients

Project description:The RNA modification N6-methyladenosine (m6A) plays a key role in the life cycles of several RNA viruses. Whether this applies to SARS-CoV-2 and whether m6A affects the outcome of COVID-19 disease is still poorly explored. Here we report that the RNA demethylase FTO strongly affects both m6A marking of SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 severity. By m6A profiling of SARS-CoV-2, we confirmed in infected cultured cells and showed for the first time in vivo in hamsters that the regions encoding TRS_L and the nucleocapsid protein are multiply marked by m6A, preferentially within RRACH motifs that are specific to β-coronaviruses and well conserved across SARS-CoV-2 variants. In cells, downregulation of the m6A demethylase FTO, occurring upon SARS-CoV-2 infection, increased m6A marking of SARS-CoV-2 RNA and slightly promoted viral replication. In COVID-19 patients, a negative correlation was found between FTO expression and both SARS-CoV-2 expression and disease severity. FTO emerged as a classifier of disease severity and hence a potential stratifier of COVID-19 patients.

Investigation of IgG-reactivity Profiles and Epitope Landscape in Divergent COVID-19 Trajectories and SARS-CoV-2 Variants using SARS-CoV-2 whole proteome peptide microarray

Project description:The objective of the study was to characterize the immunoreactivity profiles of IgG-reactive epitopes in COVID-19 patients with distinct disease trajectories as well as SARS-CoV-2-naïve sera, using a high-density SARS-CoV-2 whole proteome peptide microarray. The microarray comprised of a total of 5347 individual peptides, each consisting of 15 amino acids with an overlap of 13 amino acids printed in duplicate. The microarray also had a panel of the most relevant mutations from SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern like omicron, alpha, beta, gamma, delta, and others. This study consisted of 29 participants, including 10 naïve controls (5 pre-pandemic and 5 SARS-CoV-2 seronegative) and 19 RT-PCR-confirmed COVID-19 patients. The COVID-19 patients were stratified into two distinct cohorts based on their disease trajectories: the severe cohort (S), in which the patients presented moderate COVID-19 symptoms initially but eventually progressed toward severity; and the recovered cohort (R), in which severe COVID-19 patients progressed toward recovery. Our findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the immunopathogenesis of COVID-19 in patients with different disease trajectories, the effect of mutations on immunoreactivity, and potential cross-reactivity due to exposure to common cold viruses.

m6A modification in SARS-CoV-2 virus regulates host cell innate immune response

Project description:It is urgent and important to understand the relationship of the widespread severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus clade 2 (SARS-CoV-2) with host immune response and study the underlying molecular mechanism. RNA modification landscape of SARS-CoV-2 and its functional relevance to host cell innate immune response remain unknown. N6-methylation of adenosine (m6A) in RNA regulates many physiological and disease processes. Here, we investigated m6A modification of SARS-CoV-2 gene in regulating host cell innate immune response. Our data showed that SARS-CoV-2 virus has m6A modification enriched in 3' region of the viral genome. We also found that host cell m6A methyltransferase METTL3 depletion reduced viral load in infected cells, decreased m6A levels in SARS-CoV-2 and host genes, and m6A reduction in viral RNA increased RIG-1 binding and subsequently enhanced downstream innate immune signaling pathway and inflammatory gene expression. METTL3 expression is reduced and inflammatory genes are induced in severe COVID-19 patients. These findings will aid to understand the COVID-19 pathogenesis and help in designing future studies of regulating innate immunity for COVID-19 treatment.

Linear epitope-specific IgG responses to SARS-CoV-2 and related human coronaviruses in human COVID-19 convalescent sera

Project description:The on-going COVID-19 pandemic requires a deeper understanding of the long-term antibody responses that persist following SARS-CoV-2 infection. To that end, we determined epitope-specific IgG antibody responses in COVID-19 convalescent sera collected at 5 months post-diagnosis and compared that to sera from naïve individuals. Each serum sample was reacted with a high-density peptide microarray representing the complete proteome of SARS-CoV-2 as 15 mer peptides with 11 amino acid overlap and homologs of spike glycoprotein, nucleoprotein, membrane protein, and envelope small membrane protein from related human coronaviruses. Binding signatures were compared between COVID-19 convalescent patients and naïve individuals using the web service tool EPIphany.

Multiple Early Factors Anticipate Post-Acute COVID-19 Sequelae

Project description:Post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC) represent an emerging global crisis. However, quantifiable risk-factors for PASC and their biological associations are poorly resolved. We executed a deep multi-omic, longitudinal investigation of 309 COVID-19 patients from initial diagnosis to convalescence (2-3 months later), integrated with clinical data, and patient-reported symptoms. We resolved four PASC-anticipating risk factors at the time of initial COVID-19 diagnosis: type 2 diabetes, SARS-CoV-2 RNAemia, Epstein-Barr virus viremia, and specific autoantibodies. In patients with gastrointestinal PASC, SARS-CoV-2-specific and CMV-specific CD8+ T cells exhibited unique dynamics during recovery from COVID-19. Analysis of symptom-associated immunological signatures revealed coordinated immunity polarization into four endotypes exhibiting divergent acute severity and PASC. We find that immunological associations between PASC factors diminish over time leading to distinct convalescent immune states. Detectability of most PASC factors at COVID-19 diagnosis emphasizes the importance of early disease measurements for understanding emergent chronic conditions and suggests PASC treatment strategies.

Host nasopharyngeal transcriptome analysis in a SARS-CoV-2 positive Italian cohort

Project description:The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 has affected millions of people worldwide and has significant implications for public health. Host transcriptomics profiling provides comprehensive understanding of how the virus interacts with host cells and how the host responds to the virus. COVID-19 disease alters the host transcriptome, affecting cellular pathways and key molecular functions. To contribute to the global effort to understand the virus’s effect on host cell transcriptome, we have generated a dataset from nasopharyngeal swabs of 35 individuals infected with SARS-CoV-2 from the Campania region in Italy during the three outbreaks, with different clinical conditions. This dataset will help to elucidate the complex interactions among genes and can be useful in the development of effective therapeutic pathways

SnoRNAs and miRNAs expression profiles underlying COVID-19 disease severity

Project description:The causative organism, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), exhibits a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations in disease-ridden patients. Differences in the severity of COVID-19 ranges from asymptomatic infections and mild cases to the severe form, leading to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and multiorgan failure with poor survival. MiRNAs can regulate various cellular processes, including proliferation, apoptosis, and differentiation, by binding to the 3′UTR of target mRNAs inducing their degradation, thus serving a fundamental role in post-transcriptional repression. Alterations of miRNA levels in the blood have been described in multiple inflammatory and infectious diseases, including SARS-related coronaviruses. We used microarrays to delineate the miRNAs and snoRNAs signature in the peripheral blood of severe COVID-19 cases (n=9), as compared to mild (n=10) and asymptomatic (n=10) patients, and identified differentially expressed transcripts in severe versus asymptomatic, and others in severe versus mild COVID-19 cases. A cohort of 29 male age-matched patients were selected. All patients were previously diagnosed with COVID-19 using TaqPath COVID-19 Combo Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, Massachusetts), or Cobas SARS-CoV-2 Test (Roche Diagnostics, Rotkreuz, Switzerland), with a CT value < 30. Additional criterion for selection was age between 35 and 75 years. Participants were grouped into severe, mild and asymptomatic. Classifying severe cases was based on requirement of high-flow oxygen support and ICU admission (n=9). Whereas mild patients were identified based on symptoms and positive radiographic findings with pulmonary involvement (n=10). Patients with no clinical presentation were labelled as asymptomatic cases (n=10).
