Project description:The SARS-CoV-2 virus is continuously evolving, with appearance of new variants characterized by multiple genomic mutations, some of which can affect functional properties, including infectivity, interactions with host immunity, and disease severity. The rapid spread of new SARS-CoV-2 variants has highlighted the urgency to trace the virus evolution, to help limit its diffusion, and to assess effectiveness of containment strategies. We propose here a PCR-based rapid, sensitive and low-cost allelic discrimination assay panel for the identification of SARS-CoV-2 genotypes, useful for detection in different sample types, such as nasopharyngeal swabs and wastewater. The tests carried out demonstrate that this in-house assay, whose results were confirmed by SARS-CoV-2 whole-genome sequencing, can detect variations in up to 10 viral genome positions at once and is specific and highly sensitive for identification of all tested SARS-CoV-2 clades, even in the case of samples very diluted and of poor quality, particularly difficult to analyze.

Project description:To search for host factors regulating SARS-COV-2 infection, we performed a genome-wide loss-of-function CRISPR/Cas9 screen in haploid human ESCs. The regulators were identified by the quantification of enrichment of their mutant clones within a pooled loss-of-function library upon SARS-COV-2 infection.

Project description:A new phase of the COVID-19 pandemic has started as SARS-CoV-2 variants with increased transmissibility are emerging globally, calling for the development of reliable platforms to rapidly phenotype viruses. Currently, no rapid phenotyping system exists that both accurately models human biology and can be standardized properly. Organoids accurately model viral target cells in vivo, can be established from many tissues, passaged indefinitely, biobanked and shared. We found that the British variant (clade B.1.1.7), compared to an ancestral 614G-containing clade B virus, produced higher levels of infectious virus late in infection and had a higher replicative fitness in human airway, alveolar and intestinal organoid models. Our findings unveil extended shedding as a correlate of fitness for SARS-CoV-2, possibly explaining the rapid emergence of SARS-CoV-2 B.1.1.7. Combined with genomic surveillance systems, virus phenotyping using standardized organoid models may be implemented into public health decision making.

Project description:A recombinant SARS-CoV lacking the envelope (E) protein is attenuated in vivo. Here we report that E protein PDZ-binding motif (PBM), a domain involved in protein-protein interactions, is a major virulence determinant in vivo. Elimination of SARS-CoV E protein PBM by using reverse genetics led to attenuated viruses (SARS-CoV-mutPBM) and to a reduction in the deleterious exacerbate immune response triggered during infection with the parental virus (SARS-CoV-wt). Cellular protein syntenin bound E protein PBM during SARS-CoV infection. Syntenin activates p38 MAPK leading to overexpression of inflammatory cytokines, and we have shown that active p38 MAPK was reduced in lungs of mice infected with SARS-CoVs lacking E protein PBM (SARS-CoV-mutPBM) as compared with the parental virus (SARS-CoV-wt), leading to a decreased expression of inflammatory cytokines and to viral attenuation. Therefore, E protein PBM is a virulence factor that activates pathogenic immune response most likely by using syntenin as a mediator of p38 MAPK induced inflammation. Three biological replicates were independently hybridized (one channel per slide) for each sample type (SARS-CoV-wt, SARS-CoV-mutPBM, Mock).

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.

Project description:The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants and drug-resistant mutants underscores the urgent need for novel antiviral therapeutics. SARS-CoV-2 NSP14, an N7-guanosine methyltransferase, plays a critical role in viral RNA capping, enabling viral replication and immune evasion. While NSP14 has emerged as a promising drug target, its role in host-virus crosstalk and the cellular consequences of NSP14 inhibition remain poorly understood. Here, we present the identification and characterization of C10, a highly potent and selective first-in-class non-nucleoside inhibitor of the NSP14 S-adenosylmethionine (SAM)-binding pocket. C10 demonstrates robust antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2, including its variants, with EC50 values ranging from 64.03 to 301.9 nM, comparable to the FDA-approved drug remdesivir in our cell-based assays. C10 also exhibits broad-spectrum activity against other betacoronaviruses and directly suppresses SARS-CoV-2 genomic replication. C10 specifically reversed NSP14-mediated alterations in host transcriptome and restored host cell cycle progression disrupted by NSP14. The antiviral efficacy of C10 was further validated in a transgenic mouse model of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Our findings highlight C10 as a promising candidate for the development of effective treatments against SARS-CoV-2 and its emerging variants. This study also uncovers a novel mechanism of NSP14 in SARS-CoV-2 pathogenesis and its therapeutic potential, providing insights that may extend to other viral capping methyltransferases.

Project description:SARS-CoV-2 variants have been involved in various waves of the COVID19 pandemic and showed different pathogenicity and inflammatory potential. Whether they can induce different patterns of innate immune activation in antigen-presenting cells is poorly understood. Here, we investigated the ability of primary plasmacytoid pre-dendritic cells (pDC), type 2 dendritic cells (DC2), and monocytes isolated from healthy blood donors to respond to SARS-CoV-2 variants. Transcriptomic profiling using RNA sequencing revealed that pDC respond differentially to SARS-CoV-2 variants, while DC2 and monocytes do not. Functional studies showed that pDC undergo differential activation programs upon SARS-CoV-2 variant stimulation. The Alpha B220/95 and Delta variants induced P1-/P2-pDC effector phenotypes, characterized by strong IFN-α production. On the contrary, BA.1 variant turned pDC into a predominant T cell activating P3 phenotype, with less IFN-α and IFN-λ production, and stronger proinflammatory and CD4+T cell responses. Our results indicate that pDC activation and diversification pattern can be differentially controlled by SARS-CoV-2 variants, which may influence disease severity

Project description:COVID-19 remains a significant public health threat due to the ability of SARS-CoV-2 variants to evade the immune system and cause breakthrough infections. Although pathogenic coronaviruses such as SARS-CoV-2 and MERS-CoV lead to severe respiratory infections, how these viruses affect the chromatin proteomic composition upon infection remains largely uncharacterized. Here we used our recently developed integrative DNA And Protein Tagging (iDAPT) methodology to identify changes in host chromatin accessibility states and chromatin proteomic composition upon infection with pathogenic coronaviruses. SARS-CoV-2 infection induces TP53 stabilization on chromatin, which contributes to its host cytopathic effect. We mapped this TP53 stabilization to the SARS-CoV-2 spike and its propensity to form syncytia, a consequence of cell-cell fusion. Differences in SARS-CoV-2 spike variant-induced syncytia formation modify chromatin accessibility, cellular senescence, and inflammatory cytokine release via TP53. Our findings suggest that differences in syncytia formation alter senescence-associated inflammation, which varies among SARS-CoV-2 variants.
