A CRISPR screen of HIV dependency factors reveals CCNT1 is non-essential in T cells but required for HIV-1 reactivation from latency [CRISPR]

ABSTRACT: We sought to explore the hypothesis that host factors required for HIV-1 replication also play a role in latency reversal. Using a CRISPR gene library of putative HIV dependency factors, we performed a screen to identify genes required for latency reactivation. We identified several HIV- 1 dependency factors that play a key role in HIV-1 latency reactivation including ELL, UBE2M, TBL1XR1, HDAC3, AMBRA1, and ALYREF. Knockout of Cyclin T1 (CCNT1), a component of the P-TEFb complex important for transcription elongation, was the top hit in the screen and had the largest effect on HIV latency reversal with a wide variety of latency reversal agents. Moreover, CCNT1 knockout prevents latency reactivation in a primary CD4+ T cell model of HIV latency without affecting activation of these cells. RNA sequencing data showed that CCNT1 regulates HIV-1 proviral genes to a larger extent than any other host gene and had no significant effects on RNA transcripts in primary T cells after activation. We conclude that CCNT1 function is redundant in T cells but is absolutely required for HIV latency reversal.

HIV-1 m6A methylome investigation by m6A-SAC-seq

Project description:Despite effective antiretroviral therapy at reducing HIV-1 viral loads to undetectable levels, the presence of latently infected CD4+ T cells poses a major barrier to HIV-1 cure. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification of viral and cellular RNA has a functional role in regulating HIV-1 infection. m6A modification of HIV-1 RNA can affect its stability, translation, and splicing in cells and suppresses type-I interferon induction in macrophages. However, the function of m6A modification in regulating HIV-1 latency reactivation remains unknown. We used the Jurkat T cell line-derived HIV-1 latency model (J-Lat cells) to investigate changes in m6A levels of cellular RNA in response to latency reversal. We observed a significant increase in m6A levels of total cellular RNA upon reactivation of latent HIV-1 in J-Lat cells. This increase in m6A levels was transient and returned to steady-state levels despite continued high levels of viral gene expression in reactivated cells compared to control cells. Upregulation of m6A levels occurred without significant changes in the protein expression of m6A writers or erasers that add or remove m6A, respectively. Knockdown of m6A writers in J-Lat cells significantly reduced HIV-1 reactivation. Treatment of a m6A writer inhibitor reduced cellular RNA m6A levels along with reduction in HIV-1 reactivation. Furthermore, using m6A-specific sequencing, we identified cellular RNAs that are differentially m6A-modified during HIV-1 reactivation in J-Lat cells. Knockdown of identified m6A-modified RNA validate these results with established primary CD4+ T-cell models of HIV-1 latency. These results showed the importance of m6A RNA modification in HIV-1 latency reversal.

Integrator complex subunit 12 knockout overcomes a transcriptional block to HIV latency reversal [CRISPR]

Project description:The latent HIV reservoir is a major barrier to HIV cure. Combining latency reversal agents (LRAs) with differing mechanisms of action such as AZD5582, a non-canonical NF-kB activator, and I-BET151, a bromodomain inhibitor is appealing towards inducing HIV-1 reactivation. However, even this LRA combination needs improvement as it is inefficient at activating proviruses in cells from people living with HIV (PLWH). We performed a CRISPR screen in conjunction with AZD5582 & I-BET151 and identified a member of the Integrator complex as a target to improve this LRA combination, specifically Integrator complex subunit 12 (INTS12). Integrator functions as a genome-wide attenuator of transcription that acts on elongation through its RNA cleavage and phosphatase modules. Knockout of INTS12 improved latency reactivation at the transcriptional level and is more specific to the HIV-1 provirus than AZD5582 & I-BET151 treatment alone. We found that INTS12 is present on chromatin at the promoter of HIV and therefore its effect on HIV may be direct. Additionally, we observed more RNAPII in the gene body of HIV only with the combination of INTS12 knockout with AZD5582 & I-BET151, indicating that INTS12 induces a transcriptional elongation block to viral reactivation. Moreover, knockout of INTS12 increased HIV-1 reactivation in CD4 T cells from virally suppressed PLWH ex vivo. We also detected viral RNA in the supernatant from CD4 T cells of all three virally suppressed PLWH tested upon INTS12 knockout suggesting that INTS12 prevents full-length HIV RNA production in primary T cells.

dCas9 targeted chromatin and histone enrichment for mass spectrometry (Catchet-MS) identifies IKZF1 as a novel target for HIV-1 latency reversal

Project description:HIV-1 infected patients virally suppressed by antiviral treatment harbor a persistent reservoir of replication competent latent HIV-1 infected cells, which constitute the main roadblock to a cure. A main strategy for HIV cure aims to stimulate viral gene expression in latently infected cells so that they can be cleared. Crucial for the design of drugs referred to as “latency-reversing agents” (LRAs) is the identification of molecular targets for latency reversal. The regulatory factors physically associated with and repressing the latent HIV-1 promoter or 5’LTR would provide ideal putative molecular targets for latency reversal. However, due to technical limitations, the comprehensive and unbiased identification of host proteins associated with the latent or active integrated HIV LTR in infected cells not been possible. Here we use dCas9 targeted chromatin and histone enrichment strategy coupled to mass spectrometry (Catchet-MS), to purify the locus-associated dCas9 bait, guided downstream of the HIV-1 transcriptional start site (TSS) in latent and activated HIV-1 infected T cells to identify the 5’LTR bound latent and active regulatory complexes. Catchet-MS identified both previously described as well as novel host factors distinctly associated with the latent versus transcriptionally active HIV-1 5’LTR. Within the identified factors we find the transcription factor IKZF1 to be a novel repressor of the HIV-1 promoter required for maintenance of latency, and thus a molecular target for latency reversal. Finally, we identify the FDA approved drug, Iberdomide, which targets IKZF1 for degradation to be a novel LRA, which reversed latency in latent ex vivo HIV-1 infected primary CD4+ T cells and in cells isolated from HIV-1 infected, aviremic participants.

A modular CRISPR screen identifies individual and combination pathways contributing to HIV-1 latency

Project description:The goal of this CRISPR-based screen (Latency HIV-CRISPR) is to identify HIV-1 latency factors by evaluating multiple pathways simultaneously. Here are Illumina sequencing data and counts files from a Latency HIV-CRISPR screen using a custom guide RNA library targeting human epigenome genes (HuEpi). The Latency HIV-CRISPR screens described here were performed in clonal ZAP knockout J-Lat 10.6 (PMID: 12682019) or J-Lat 5A8 (PMID: 24204950) cells lines as ZAP inhibition of the HIV-CRISPR vector has been previously described (PMID: 30520725). The screens were performed in the presence or absence of AZD5582, a SMAC mimetic and latency reversal agent, in order to identify factors that are dependent and independent of this transcriptional activator.

HSV-2 Triggers Upregulation of MALAT1 in CD4+ T cells and Promotes HIV Latency Reversal (scRNA-Seq)

Project description:HSV-2 coinfection is associated with increased HIV-1 viral loads and expanded tissue reservoirs, but the mechanisms are not well-defined. HSV-2 recurrences result in an influx of activated CD4+ T cells to sites of viral replication and an increase in activated CD4+ T cells in peripheral blood. We hypothesized that HSV-2 induces changes in these cells that facilitate HIV-1 reactivation and replication and tested this hypothesis in human CD4+ T cells and 2D10 cells, a model of HIV-1 latency. HSV-2 promoted latency reversal in HSV-2 infected and bystander 2D10 cells. Bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing studies of activated primary human CD4+ T cells identified decreased expression of HIV-1 restriction factors and increased expression of transcripts including MALAT1 that could drive HIV replication in both the HSV-2-infected and bystander cells. Transfection of 2D10 cells with VP16, an HSV-2 protein that regulates transcription, significantly upregulated MALAT1 expression, decreased trimethylation of lysine 27 on histone H3 protein, and triggered HIV latency reversal. Knockout of MALAT1 from 2D10 cells abrogated the response to VP16 and reduced the response to HSV-2 infection. These results demonstrate that HSV-2 contributes to HIV-1 reactivation through diverse mechanisms including upregulation of MALAT1 to release epigenetic silencing.
