A virally encoded high resolution screen of cytomegalovirus host dependencies

ABSTRACT: Genetic screens have transformed our ability to interrogate cellular factor requirements in infection, yet current approaches are limited in their sensitivity, biased towards early stages of infection and provide only simplistic phenotypic information which is often based on infected cell survival. Here, by engineering human cytomegalovirus to express sgRNA libraries directly from the viral genome, we developed a sensitive, versatile, viral centric approach that allows profiling of different stages along viral infection in a pooled format. Using this approach, which we termed VECOS (Virus Encoded CRISPR-based direct readOut Screening system), we identified hundreds of novel dependency and restriction factors and we quantified their direct effects on viral genome replication, viral particle secretion and infectiousness of secreted particles, providing a multi-dimensional perspective on viral-host interactions. These high resolution measurements reveal that perturbations that alter late stages in HCMV life cycle mostly regulate HCMV particle quality rather than quantity, defining correct virion assembly as a critical stage that is heavily reliant on viral-host interactions. Overall, VECOS facilitates systematic high resolution dissection of human proteins' role along the infection cycle, providing a roadmap for in-depth dissection of host–herpesvirus interactions.

High-resolution profiling and analysis of viral and host small RNAs during human cytomegalovirus infection

Project description:Small RNA deep sequencing analysis was conducted on primary human fibroblasts infected with human cytomegalovirus (HCMV). HCMV-encoded miRNAs accumulated to ~20% of the total smRNA population at late stages of infection, and our analysis led to improvements in viral miRNA annotations and identification of novel HCMV miRNAs. Through crosslinking and immunoprecipitation of Argonaute-bound RNAs from infected cells, followed by high-throughput sequencing (Ago CLIP-seq), we obtained direct evidence for incorporation of all HCMV miRNAs into the endogenous host silencing machinery. Additionally, significant upregulation was observed during infection for a host miRNA cluster containing miR-96, miR-182 and miR-183. We also identified novel non-miRNA forms of virus-derived smRNAs, revealing greater complexity within the smRNA population during HCMV infection. High-throughput profiling of smRNAs, Ago1-, and Ago2-associated miRNAs from HCMV-infected fibroblast cells. Wild-type HCMV Towne (Genbank FJ616285.1) was used for these studies.

Functional single-cell genomics of human cytomegalovirus infection

Project description:The complex life cycle of herpesviruses is orchestrated by the interplay of host factors and hundreds of viral genes. Understanding how they work together and how perturbations of viral and host factors impact infection represents both a fundamental problem in virology and the basis for designing antiviral interventions. Here, we use CRISPR screening to study infection of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) in primary cells, comprehensively defining the functional contribution of each viral and host factor. We then record the transcriptomes of tens of thousands of single cells, and monitor how genetic perturbation of critical host and viral factors alters the timing, course, and progression of infection. We find that normally, the large majority of cells follow a stereotypical transcriptional trajectory. Perturbing critical host factors does not change this trajectory per se, but can either stall, delay or accelerate progression along the trajectory, allowing us to pinpoint systematically the stage of infection at which each host factor acts. Conversely, perturbation of viral factors can create distinct abortive trajectories. Our results reveal a dichotomy between the roles of host and viral factors and more generally provide a road map for functional dissection of host-pathogen interactions.

Single-cell RNA-sequencing of human cytomegalovirus-infected humanized mice

Project description:Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a common herpesvirus that persistently infects a large portion of the world's population. Despite the robust host immune response, HCMV is able to replicate, evade host defenses, and establish latency throughout the lifespan by developing multiple immunomodulatory strategies, making the studies on the interaction between HCMV infection and host response particularly important. HCMV has a strict host specificity that specifically infects humans. Therefore, most of the in vivo researches of HCMV rely on clinical samples. Fortunately, the establishment of humanized mouse models allows for convenient in-lab animal experiments involving HCMV infection. Single-cell RNA sequencing(scRNA-seq) enables the study of the relationship between viral and host gene expressions at the single-cell level within host cells. In this study, we assessed the gene expression alterations of PBMCs at the single-cell level within HCMV-infected humanized mice, which sheds light onto the virus-host interactions in the context of HCMV infecton of humanized mice and provides a valuable dataset for the related researches.

Orchestrating protein acetylation: a toggle for cellular defense versus virus replication

Project description:Emerging evidence points to protein acetylation as a nexus at the interface of virus-host interactions. However, global protein acetylation is understudied during infection, and the temporal control and function of acetylation in the context of infection remains poorly understood. Here, we present the first temporal-spatial characterization of acetylation during infection with human cytomegalovirus (HCMV). By using acetyl-peptide immunoaffinity purification, we identified dynamic changes in acetylation events on both cellular and viral proteins over the course of HCMV infection. Our subsequent analyses demonstrated that these acetylations functionally contribute to the progression of infection.

The transcription and translation landscapes during human cytomegalovirus infection reveal novel host-pathogen interactions

Project description:During its long infection cycle, human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) extensively manipulates cellular gene expression to maintain conditions favorable for viral propagation. In order to reveal the signature of cellular genes that are manipulated by HCMV, we measured RNA abundance and rate of protein production through the course of HCMV infection. We characterized changes for most expressed cellular genes and although much of the regulation was transcriptional we uncover diverse and dynamic translational regulation for subsets of host genes, revealing unappreciated coordination in translational control that suggests common regulators Ribosome profiling and mRNA-seq along HCMV infection

Global analysis of the human cytomegalovirus interactome identifies degradation hubs, domain associations and viral protein functions

Project description:Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is an important pathogen that extensively modulates host cells, downregulating >900 human proteins over the course of viral replication and degrading ≥133 proteins shortly after infection. The mechanism of degradation of most host proteins remains unresolved, and the functions of many viral proteins are incompletely characterised. We performed a systematic interactome analysis of 169 canonical HCMV proteins, and a subset of non-canonical HCMV proteins, in infected cells. This identified an extensive network of >3,400 virus-host and >150 virus-virus protein interactions, providing insights into novel functions for multiple viral genes. Domain analysis predicted binding of the viral UL25 protein to the SH3 domains of NCK Adaptor Protein 1. Viral interacting proteins were identified for 31/133 degraded host targets. Finally, the uncharacterised, non-canonical ORFL147C protein was found to interact with elements of the mRNA splicing machinery, and a mutational study suggested its importance in viral replication. The interactome data will be important for future studies of herpesvirus infection.

Human cytomegalovirus IE2 drives transcription initiation from a select subset of late infection viral promoters by host RNA polymerase II

Project description:Herpesvirus late promoters activate gene expression after viral DNA synthesis has begun. Alphaherpesviruses utilize a viral immediate-early protein to do this, whereas beta- and gammaherpesviruses primarily use a 6-member set of viral late-acting transcription factors (LTF) that are drawn to a TATT sequence in the late promoter. The betaherpesvirus, human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), produces three immediate-early 2 protein isoforms, IE2-86, IE2-60, IE2-40, in late infection, but whether they activate late viral promoters is unknown. Here, we quickly degrade the IE2 proteins in late infection and analyze effects on transcription using customized PRO-Seq and computational methods combined with multiple validation methods. We discover that the IE2 proteins selectively drive RNA Pol II transcription initiation at a subset of viral early-late and late promoters common to different HCMV strains, but do not substantially affect Pol II transcription of the 9,942 expressed host genes. Most of the IE2-activated viral late infection promoters lack the TATT sequence bound by the HCMV UL87-encoded LTF. The HCMV TATT-binding protein is not mechanistically involved in late RNA expression from the IE2-activated TATT-less UL83 (pp65) promoter, as it is for the TATT-containing UL82 (pp71) promoter. While antecedent viral DNA synthesis is necessary for transcription from the late infection viral promoters, continued viral DNA synthesis is unnecessary. We conclude that the IE2 proteins target a distinct subset of late infection HCMV promoters for transcription initiation by RNA Pol II. Commencement of viral DNA replication renders the HCMV genome late promoters susceptible to late-acting viral transcription factors, which do not appreciably affect host transcription during this late time.

Human cytomegalovirus hijacks L1 retrotransposon to fuel its heterogeneity

Project description:Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV) causes severe morbidity and mortality in an immune-compromised or immune-naïve host. Among DNA viruses, the genetic diversity of HCMV is unexpectedly high and comparable to those of RNA viruses, which hinders the development of effective vaccines and causes the emergence of antiviral resistance. However, little is known about how HCMV acquires genetic variation. Here, we propose an evolution strategy of HCMV, that exploits host “jumping DNA” L1 retrotransposon as a mutagen. We found that HCMV infection switches on L1 expression by upregulating transcription factors YY1 and RUNX3. Furthermore, HCMV DNA processivity factor, UL44 recruits L1 ribonucleoproteins to viral replication compartments and induces DNA damage to its genome. Deep-sequencing analysis of cultured HCMV genome revealed that L1 retrotransposon facilitates mutation burden on the viral genome. Indeed, laboratory adaptation of HCMV to fibroblasts is only observed upon active L1 expression. These findings demonstrate the evolution mechanism and molecular insights of how HCMV acquires genetic fitness by the hijacking of host L1 retrotransposon.
