Gag proteins encoded by endogenous retroviruses are required for zebrafish development

ABSTRACT: Transposable elements (TEs) make up the bulk of eukaryotic genomes and examples abound of TE-derived sequences repurposed for organismal function. The process by which TEs become coopted remains obscure because most cases involve ancient, transpositionally inactive elements. Reports of active TEs serving beneficial functions are scarce and often contentious due to difficulties in manipulating repetitive sequences. Here we show that recently active TEs in zebrafish encode products critical for embryonic development. Knockdown and rescue experiments demonstrate that the endogenous retrovirus family BHIKHARI-1 (Bik-1) encodes a Gag protein essential for mesoderm development. Mechanistically, Bik-1 Gag associates with the cell membrane and its ectopic expression in chicken embryos alters cell migration. Similarly, depletion of BHIKHARI-2 Gag, a relative of Bik-1, causes defects in neural crest development in zebrafish. We propose an “addiction” model to explain how active TEs can be integrated into conserved developmental processes.

RNA Sequencing of Novel HIV RNA TAR-gag and Host Genome of EVs from HIV-1 Infected Cells

Project description:We performed a 3' RACE of a novel HIV RNA TAR-gag in order to determine the sequence of the RNA at the 3' end. Our data had shown that TAR-gag was potentially a noncoding RNA and our hypothesis was that TAR-gag ended somewhere prior to the end of the gag region of the HIV genome. The 3' RACE experiment showed that TAR-gag actually consists of four different RNA clusters, the longest of which ends at 615 bases from the transcription start site; this is in the middle of the p17 region of the gag gene. In addition, we sequenced all host RNAs in the EVs.

Determination of Gag stoichiometry for different production platforms by PRM analysis

Project description:In this work we established an analytical method of characterization for the Gag protein core and clarify the current variability of Gag stoichiometry in HIV-1 VLPs depending on the cell-based production platform, directly determining the number of Gag molecules per VLP in each case. Three Gag peptides have been validated to quantify the number of monomers using parallel reaction monitoring (PRM)

CpG dinucleotides introduced into gag can inhibit HIV-1 gene expression by modulating pre-mRNA splicing

Project description:Progressively longer regions of the gag gene sequence in HIV-1 were codon-optimized, which introduced 11, 18 or 26 CpGs (CM22-165: codon-optimized gag from nucleotide 22 to 165, adding 11 CpGs; CM22-261: 18 CpGs; CM22-378: 26 CpGs).

Comparative analysis of retroviral Gag-host cell interactions in the nucleus

Project description:Retroviruses exploit a variety of host proteins to assemble and release virions from infected cells. To date, most studies that examined possible interacting partners of retroviral Gag proteins focused on host proteins that localize primarily to the cytoplasm or plasma membrane. Given the recent findings that several full-length Gag proteins localize to the nucleus, identifying the Gag-nuclear interactome has high potential for novel findings that reveal previously unknown host processes. This dataset contains results from a mass spectrometry approach using affinity-tagged (His6) HIV-1 and RSV Gag proteins mixed with nuclear extracts, and identifies potential binding partners of HIV-1 and RSV Gag involved in several nuclear processes, including transcription, splicing, RNA modification, and chromatin structure. Although a subset of host proteins interacted with both Gag proteins, there were also unique host proteins belonging to each interactome dataset. These results provide a strong premise for future functional studies to investigate roles for these nuclear host factors that may have shared functions in the biology of both retroviruses, as well as functions specific to RSV and HIV-1, given their distinctive hosts and molecular pathology.

Transcriptome Profiles of Gag-Specific CD8+ T Cells Induced by Live Attenuated SIV Vaccine

Project description:SIVmac239Δnef (SIVΔnef) live attenuated vaccine (LAV) induces the best protection among all the vaccine modalities tested in rhesus macaque model of HIV-1 infection. Time-dependent protection is a unique feature of this vaccine: macaques are not protected at 3-5 weeks post vaccination (WPV), whereas immune protection emerges between 15 and 20 WPV. To elucidate the protection mechanisms induced by SIVΔnef vaccine, we longitudinally compared the global gene expression profiles of SIV Gag-CM9+ CD8+ (Gag-specific CD8+) T cells from peripheral blood of Mamu-A*01 rhesus macaques at 3 and 20 WPV using rhesus microarray. We found that gene expression profiles of Gag-specific CD8+ T cells at 20 WPV are qualitatively different from those at 3 WPV. At 20 WPV, the most significant transcriptional changes of Gag-specific CD8+ T cells were genes involved in cell activation, differentiation and maturation toward central memory cells. Our study indicates that a higher quality of SIV-specific CD8+ T cells elicited by SIVΔnef over time may contribute to the maturation of time dependent protection.

Structural basis for spumavirus GAG tethering to chromatin

Project description:The interactions between a retrovirus and host cell chromatin that underlie integration and provirus expression are poorly understood. The prototype foamy virus (PFV) structural protein GAG associates with chromosomes via a chromatin-binding sequence (CBS) located within its C-terminal region. Here, we show that the PFV CBS is essential and sufficient for a direct interaction with nucleosomes, and present a crystal structure of the CBS bound to a mono-nucleosome. The CBS interacts with the histone octamer, engaging the H2A-H2B acidic patch, in a manner similar to other acidic patch binding proteins such as herpesvirus latency-associated nuclear antigen (LANA). Substitutions of the invariant arginine anchor residue in GAG result in global re-distribution of PFV and macaque simian foamy virus (SFVmac) integration sites towards centromeres, dampening the resulting proviral expression without affecting the overall efficiency of integration. Our findings underscore the importance of retroviral structural proteins for integration site selection and the avoidance of genomic junkyards.

RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (RIP-seq) of human Dicer-bound miRNAs in HIV-1 Gag replicating cells.

Project description:Micro (mi)RNAs are critical regulators of gene expression in human cells, whose functions can be affected during viral replication. We showed that the Human Immunodeficiency Virus type 1 (HIV-1) Gag protein interacts with the human miRNA processor Dicer and modifies its retention of specific miRNAs without affecting the enzyme’s pre-miRNA processing activity. This sequencing experiment was performed to elucidate whether the presence of Gag in human cells has an effect on the distribution of miRNAs loaded onto Dicer.
