Project description:We used the microarray data to analyze host cells response on A549 cells infected with Influenza A virus (A/Singapore/478/2009 (pH1N1)) The Influenza A virus (A/Singapore/478/2009 (pH1N1)) infected A549 cells were harvested at 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 hpi and RNA extraction was performed using standard protocol as described by Affymetrix. The aim of this experiment is to analyze host response to Influenza A virus (A/Singapore/478/2009 (pH1N1)) infection.
Project description:Data files associated with manuscript titled "Temporal control of protein labeling by photo-caged benzaldehyde motif and discovery of host cell factors of avian influenza virus infection".
we applied our probes for unbiased host-pathogen interaction factor discovery for avian influenza (AI) virus.
These Chemoproteomics analysis illustrate that the unbiased fishing strategy using photo-activated benzaldehyde probes has potential to open up a novel biomarker discovery.
Project description:Viral infection is commonly associated with virus-driven hijacking of host proteins. We describe a novel mechanism by which influenza virus impacts host cells through the interaction of influenza NS1 protein with the infected cell epigenome. We show that the NS1 protein of influenza A H3N2 targets the transcription elongation PAF1 complex (hPAF1C). We demonstrate that binding of NS1 to hPAF1C results in suppression of hPAF1C-mediated transcriptional elongation. More importantly,in the following data sets, we show that hPAF1 plays a crucial role in the antiviral response. Loss of hPAF1C reduces antiviral gene expression and reduces inducible transcription of target genes after stimulation with viral RNA analogue poly(I:C), vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV), exogenous recombinant IFN(beta) and influenza virus (H1N1). This study underscores the importance of hPAF1C in controlling inducible antiviral gene expression. Untreated (no siRNA), control siRNA-treated and hPAF1 siRNA-treated A549 cells were stimulated with A/Puerto Rico/8/1934 influenza virus (H1N1) or vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV). Total RNA was isolated with the Qiagen RNeasy mini kit. 200ng of total RNA per sample was used to prepare biotin-labeled RNA using MessageAmp™ Premier RNA Amplification Kit (Applied Biosystems) and hybridized to HumanHT-12 v4 Expression BeadChips (Illumina). Data analysis was performed using the GeneSpring GX11.0 software (Agilent Technologies). 3 biological replicates per condition

Project description:Virus-host interactions are complicated processes, and multiple cellular proteins have been reported to promote or inhibit viral replication through different mechanisms. Recent progress has implicated circular RNAs (circRNA) in cancer biology and progression; however, the role of circRNAs in viral infection remains largely unclear. Here, we detected 11,620 circRNAs in A549 cells and found that 411 of them were differentially expressed in influenza virus-infected A549 cells. We characterized a novel intronic circRNA, AIVR, that was upregulated in influenza virus-infected A549 cells, and found that silencing of AIVR significantly promoted influenza virus replication in A549 cells. We further found that AIVR predominantly localizes in the cytoplasm and works as a microRNA (miRNA) sponge. One of the miRNAs absorbed by AIVR binds the mRNA of CREBBP, which is an important component of the large nucleoprotein complex IFN-β enhanceosome that accelerates IFN-β production. AIVR-overexpression significantly increased the mRNA and protein levels of INF-β in the influenza virus-infected A549 cells. Therefore, the upregulation of AIVR is a cellular antiviral strategy, with AIVR exerting its antiviral effect by absorbing miRNA and promoting the expression of CREBBP to facilitate IFN-β production. Our study provides new insights into the roles of circRNAs in the cellular innate antiviral response.
Project description:Epithelial cells are the first line of defense within the lung. Disruption of the epithelial barrier by pathogens enables the systematic dissemination of bacteria or viruses within the host, leading to severe diseases with fatal outcomes. Thus, the lung epithelium can be damaged by seasonal and pandemic influenza A viruses. Influenza A virus infection induced dysregulation of the immune system is beneficial for the dissemination of bacteria to the lower respiratory tract, causing bacterial and viral co-infection. Host cells regulate protein homeostasis and the response to different stimuli, for instance pathogen infections, by post translational modification of proteins. Aside from protein phosphorylation, ubiquitination of proteins is an essential regulatory tool in virtually every cellular process, such as protein homeostasis, the host immune response, cell morphology, and in clearing of cytosolic pathogens. Here, we analyzed the proteome and ubiquitinome of A549 cells in response to Streptococcus pneumoniae D39 Δcps and influenza A virus H1N1 as well as bacterial and viral co-infection. Pneumococcal infection induced alterations in the ubiquitination of proteins involved in the organization of the actin cytoskeleton and Rho GTPases, but had minor effects on the abundance of host proteins. H1N1 infection is reflected by an anti-viral state of A549 cells. Finally, co infection resembled the imprints of both infecting pathogens with a minor increase in the observed alterations in protein and ubiquitination abundance.
