PADI4-mediated citrullination of histone H3 stimulates HIV-1 transcription


ABSTRACT: HIV-1 infection establishes a reservoir of long-lived cells with integrated proviral DNA that can persist despite antiretroviral therapy (ART). The mechanisms governing the transcriptional regulation of the provirus are complex and incompletely understood. Here, we investigated the role of histone H3 citrullination, a post-translational modification catalyzed by protein-arginine deiminase type-4 (PADI4), in HIV-1 transcription and latency. We found that PADI4 inhibition by GSK484 reduced HIV-1 transcription after T cell activation in ex vivo cultures of CD4 T cells from viremic and ART treated people living with HIV-1 (PLWH). The effect was more pronounced in the viremic group. Using cell models of HIV-1 latency, we showed that PADI4-mediated citrullination of histone H3 occurred at the HIV-1 promoter upon T cell stimulation which facilitated proviral transcription. HIV-1 preferentially integrated into genomic regions marked by H3 citrullination and these integrated proviruses were less prone to latency compared to those in non-citrullinated chromatin. Inhibiting PADI4 led to compaction of the HIV-1 promoter chromatin and an increase of HP1a-covered heterochromatin, in a mechanism partly dependent on the HUSH complex. Our data reveal a novel mechanism of HIV-1 transcriptional regulation by PADI4 through H3 citrullination.
