Project description:Decoding human cytomegalovirus using ribosome profiling

Project description:Abstract: The transcriptional program associated with herpesvirus latency and the viral genes regulating entry into and exit from latency are poorly understood and controversial. Here, we developed and validated a targeted enrichment platform and conducted large-scale transcriptome analyses of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection. We used both an experimental hematopoietic cell model of latency, and cells from naturally infected, healthy human subjects (clinical) to define the breadth of viral genes expressed. The viral transcriptome derived from experimental infection was highly correlated with that from clinical infection, validating our experimental latency model. These transcriptomes revealed a broader profile of gene expression during infection in hematopoietic cells than previously appreciated. Further, using recombinant viruses that establish a non-reactivating, latent-like or replicative infection in CD34+ hematopoietic progenitors (HPCs), we defined classes of low to moderately expressed genes that are differentially regulated in latent vs. replicative states of infection. Most of these genes have yet to be studied in depth. By contrast, genes that were highly expressed, were expressed similarly in both latent and replicative infection. From these findings, a model emerges whereby low or moderately expressed genes may have the greatest impact on regulating the switch between viral latency and replication. The core set of viral genes expressed in natural infection and differentially regulated depending on the pattern of infection provides novel insight into the HCMV transcriptome associated with latency in the host and a resource for investigating new virus-host interactions underlying persistence. Significance: Herpesviruses have an extraordinarily complex relationship with their host, persisting for the lifetime of the host by way of a latent infection. Reactivation of replication is associated with significant disease risk, particularly in immunocompromised individuals. We characterize in depth transcriptional profiles of HCMV latency. We show that a broad and concordant viral transcriptome is found in both an experimental model of latency and in asymptomatically infected individuals. We further define genes that are differentially regulated during latent and replicative states- candidates for key regulators controlling the switch between latency and reactivation. This work will help understand the persistence of complex DNA viruses and provides a path towards developing antiviral strategies to control herpesvirus entry into and exit from latency.

Project description:Primary infection with human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) results in a lifelong infection due to its ability to establish latent infection, with one characterized viral reservoir being hematopoietic cells. Although reactivation from latency causes serious disease in immunocompromised individuals, our molecular understanding of latency is limited. Here, we delineate viral gene expression during natural HCMV persistent infection by analyzing the massive transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) atlas generated by the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project. This systematic analysis reveals that HCMV persistence in vivo is prevalent in diverse tissues. Notably, we find only viral transcripts that resemble gene expression during various stages of lytic infection with no evidence of any highly restricted latency-associated viral gene expression program. To further define the transcriptional landscape during HCMV latent infection, we also used single-cell RNA-seq and a tractable experimental latency model. In contrast to some current views on latency, we also find no evidence for any highly restricted latency-associated viral gene expression program. Instead, we reveal that latency-associated gene expression largely mirrors a late lytic viral program, albeit at much lower levels of expression. Overall, our work has the potential to revolutionize our understanding of HCMV persistence and suggests that latency is governed mainly by quantitative changes, with a limited number of qualitative changes, in viral gene expression.

Project description:Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a prevalent pathogen that chronically infects the majority of human population. Among the many features that allow such widespread HCMV infection, one is its ability to maintain a transcriptionally dormant immune-evasive state called latency by suppressing its own major immediate early promoter (MIEP) via epigenetic alterations. In this study, we show a novel mechanism of MIEP regulation in which the major immediate early (MIE) gene product, IE1, downregulates its own promoter activity in an m6A modification-dependent manner. We found that the loss of the m6A writer, METTL3, in host cell results in the failure of HCMV to establish latency in these cells. Through transcriptome-wide m6A profiling of latently infected monocytes, we identified that the major immediate early gene product IE1 is m6A-modified during latent infection, with an m6A profile that is distinct from that found during lytic infection. Using an IE1-specific m6A-abolished mutant, we found that latent infection-specific m6A modification of the IE1 transcript was necessary for the efficient repression of MIEP, and this mutant virus failed to establish latency and progressed toward lytic-like infection in THP-1 cells. Our findings demonstrate that HCMV exploits the host m6A machinery to suppress its own lytic program to establish latency and uncover an unexpected role of immediate early gene mRNA in regulating its own expression.

Project description:Human Cytomegalovirus (hCMV) infects a broad range of the population and establishes life-long latency in the infected individuals. Periodically the latently infected virus can reactivate and becomes a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised individuals. Upon reactivation, the repressive chromatin is remodeled to an active form, allowing viral lytic gene transcription, initiated by the expression of viral Immediate Early (IE) genes. During this process, a number of histone modification enzymes, including histone demethylases (HDMs), play important roles in driving IE expression, but the mechanisms involved are not fully understood. To get a better understanding of these mechanisms, we profiled this well-established CMV experimental latency-reactivation model based on TPA (12-O-Tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate) induced THP-1 differentiation, which recapitulates many key features of CMV latency and reactivation in vivo, including the important role of viral chromatin in controlling viral IE gene expression.

Project description:Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) causes a lifelong infection through establishment of latency. Although reactivation from latency can cause life-threatening disease, our molecular understanding of HCMV latency is incomplete. Here we use single cell RNA-seq analysis to characterize latency in monocytes and hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). In monocytes, we identify host cell surface markers that enable enrichment of latent cells harboring higher viral transcript levels, which can reactivate more efficiently, and are characterized by an intrinsic reduced immune response that is critical for viral gene expression. Significantly, in latent HSPCs, viral transcripts could be detected only in monocyte progenitors and were also associated with reduced immune-response. Overall, our work demonstrates that regardless of the developmental stage in which HCMV infects, HCMV drives hematopoietic cells towards a weaker immune-responsive monocyte state and that this anergic-like state is crucial for the virus ability to express its transcripts and to eventually reactivate.
