Project description:Herpes simplex virus mutants lacking the vhs gene are severely attenuated in animal models of pathogenesis and exhibit reduced growth in primary cell culture. As a result of these properties vhs-deleted virus have been proposed as live-attenuated viruses. Despite these findings and their implications for vacccines, the mechanisms by which vhs promotes infection in cell culture and in vivo are not understood. In this study we demonstrate that vhs-deficent viruses replicate to reduced levels in interferon(IFN)- primed cells. Furthermore, vhs-defective viruses induce increased levels of IFN? and IFN?-stimulated genes, and increased levels of eIF2? phosphorylation in infected cells. In addition, we demonstrate a generalized over-expression of viral RNAs following infection with a vhs-deficient virus. This suggests increased expression of IFN pathway inducing double stranded RNA, a potent pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP). Together these data show that vhs likely functions to reduce innate immune responses and thereby acts as critical determinant of viral pathogenesis. Keywords: time course, genetic modification Time course (1,3,6,9 & 12h) of HSV infected mouse embryo fibroblasts. Wild type (KOS) virus is co-hybridized with vhs null virus (NHB). Each time-point is hybridized in quadruplicate.

Project description:Since the genome of herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) was first sequenced more than 30 years ago, the 84 genes it was thought to encode have been intensively studied. Here, we unravel the full complement of viral transcription and translation during lytic infection with base-pair resolution by computational integration of multi-omics data. This includes a total of 201 viral transcripts and 296 open reading frames (ORFs), comprising all known large ORFs, 55 large novel ORFs including a novel spliced ORF in the ICP0 locus that initiates from a non-AUG start codon and a novel strongly translated ORF in the ICP34.5 locus as well as multiple short ORFs. By defining viral gene modules, we link translation of ORFs to the expression of transcript isoforms. This explained translation of the vast majority of viral ORFs as well as N-terminal extensions and truncations thereof. We show that N-terminal extensions initiating from non-AUG start codons govern subcellular protein localization and packaging of key viral regulators and structural proteins. This work has great implications for future functional studies, vaccine design and novel oncolytic therapies.

Project description:Herpesvirus infection initiates a range of perturbations in the host cell, which remain poorly understood at the level of individual cells. Here, we quantify the transcriptome of single human primary fibroblasts during the first hours of lytic infection with HSV-1. By applying a generalizable analysis scheme, we define a precise temporal order of early viral gene expression and propose a set-wise emergence of viral genes. We identify host cell genes and pathways relevant for infection by combining three different computational approaches: gene and pathway overdispersion analysis, prediction of cell-state transition probabilities, as well as future cell states. One transcriptional program, which correlates with increased resistance to infection, implicates the transcription factor NRF2. Consequently, Bardoxolone methyl and Sulforaphane, two known NRF2 agonists, impair virus production, suggesting that NRF2 activation restricts viral infection. Our study provides insights into early stages of HSV-1 infection and serves as a general blueprint for the investigation of heterogeneous cell states in virus infection.

Project description:Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) is a widespread human pathogen that establishes lifelong infections, but understanding precise activity at each infection stage remains challenging. HSV-1 utilizes ubiquitination pathways to modulate cellular factors to facilitate its replication cycle, however, elucidating the cascades that follow host protein degradation and the subsequent impact on the host-virus equilibrium continues to be a complex endeavor. Here we reveal the multifaceted role of the DNA damage response protein RAP80 throughout HSV-1’s infection cycle. In early stages, RAP80 inhibits HSV-1 transcription by directly binding to the viral genome, blocking ICP4 (viral protein) binding to transcription factors. This interaction is regulated by phase separation via an intricate interplay between RAP80 and ICP0/ICP4. As infection progresses, the viral E3 ligase ICP0 degrades RAP80, dissolving phase separation, and allowing the formation of a mature viral replication compartment. In late infection stages, RAP80 is deubiquitinated by the viral deubiquitinase UL36USP, which restores cellular homeostasis and promotes HSV-1 survival. This process involves modulating the R-loop-cGAS-apoptosis pathway. These findings underscore the dynamic interplay between viral and host factors and the complex mechanisms used by HSV-1 to subvert host defenses, offering practical implications for the future development of antiviral strategies.

Project description:Virus infection induces an antiviral response that is predominantly associated with the synthesis and secretion of soluble interferon. Here, we report that herpes simplex virus type 1 virions induce an interferon-independent antiviral state in human embryonic lung cells that prevents plaquing of a variety of viruses. Microarray analysis of 19,000 human expressed sequence tags revealed induction of a limited set of host genes, the majority of which are also induced by interferon. Genes implicated in controlling the intracellular spread of virus and eliminating virally infected cells were among those induced. Induction of the cellular response occurred in the absence of de novo cellular protein synthesis and required viral penetration. In addition, this response was only seen when viral gene expression was inhibited, suggesting that a newly synthesized viral protein(s) may function as an inhibitor of this response.

Project description:These data files consist of Illumina next seq 500 sequencing data from precision nuclear run-on and global nuclear run-on experiments conducted with human epithelial Hep2 cells that have been infected with human herpes simplex virus-1 (F) strain mutants. The results of these studies suggest that ICP22 is necessary for reducing Pol II processivity on the viral genome which results in its maintenance on the viral genome over the course of infection. While human reads continued to decrease over the time course of infection in the repair virus, this did not occur in the ICP22 deletion virus where over time the number of human reads increased over the time course of infection rather than decreasing. The effects of ICP22 deletion were separable from inhibiting HSV-1 DNA replication to the extent that ICP22 deletion resulted in a decrease in Pol levels only at 6 hpi and not at 3 hpi as was observed in the mutant

Project description:APOBEC1 (A1) is a cytidine deaminase involved in the regulation of lipids in the small intestine. Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) is a ubiquitous pathogen that is capable of infecting neurons in the brain, causing encephalitis. Here, we show that A1 is induced during encephalitis in neurons of rats infected with HSV-1. In cells stably expressing A1, HSV-1 infection resulted in significantly reduced virus replication compared to that in control cells. Infectivity could be restored to levels comparable to those observed for control cells if A1 expression was silenced by specific A1 short hairpin RNAs (shRNA). Moreover, cytidine deaminase activity appeared to be essential for this inhibition and led to an impaired accumulation of viral mRNA transcripts and DNA copy numbers. The sequencing of viral gene UL54 DNA, extracted from infected A1-expressing cells, revealed G-to-A and C-to-T transitions, indicating that A1 associates with HSV-1 DNA. Taken together, our results demonstrate a model in which A1 induction during encephalitis in neurons may aid in thwarting HSV-1 infection.
