Viruses hijack FPN1 to disrupt iron withholding and suppress host defense

ABSTRACT: Iron withholding controls infections by limiting the pathogens’ access to iron from the host. Viruses directly utilize intracellular materials, including iron, to complete their life cycles. Emerging evidence suggests the importance of withholding iron in limiting viral infections. However, the mechanisms through which viruses disrupt host iron homeostasis and the impact of intracellular iron on the host’s antiviral defense remain unknown. Here we show that viral infections facilitate the polyubiquitination and degradation of ferroportin (FPN1, the only cellular iron exporter) by upregulating the host E3 ubiquitin ligase DTX3L, leading to an elevation in cellular iron levels. Excessive ferrous suppresses type I IFN responses and autophagy by promoting TBK1 hydroxylation and STING carbonylation in macrophages. FPN1 deficiency suppresses host antiviral defense and facilitates viral replication in vitro and in vivo, while DTX3L deficiency has the opposite effect. These results reveal that viruses hijack host FPN1 to disrupt iron withholding and achieve immune escape, and suggest that iron homeostasis maintained by FPN1 is required for the optimal activation of TBK1- and STING-dependent antiviral responses.

Protein S-Nitrosylation of host and viral proteins upon fibroblast infection with Human Cytomegalovirus

Project description:Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a ubiquitous pathogen that has co-evolved with its host and in doing so, is highly efficient in undermining antiviral responses that limit successful infections. As a result, HCMV infections are highly problematic in individuals with weakened or underdeveloped immune systems including transplant recipients and newborns. Understanding how HCMV controls the microenvironment of an infected cell so as to favor productive replication is of critical importance. To this end, we took an unbiased proteomics approach to identify the highly reversible, stress induced, post-translational modification (PTM), protein S-nitrosylation, on viral proteins to determine the biological impact on viral replication. We identified protein S-nitrosylation of 13 viral proteins during infection of highly permissive fibroblasts. One of these proteins, pp71, is critical for efficient viral replication, as it undermines host antiviral responses, including STING activation. By exploiting site-directed mutagenesis of the specific amino acids we identified in pp71 as protein S-nitrosylated, we found this pp71 PTM diminishes its ability to undermine antiviral responses induced by the STING pathway. Our results suggest a model in which protein S-nitrosylation may function as a host response to viral infection that limits viral spread.

A Dicistrovirus-specific inducible antiviral response in Drosophila

Project description:The fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster is a good model to unravel the molecular mechanisms of innate immunity, and has led to some important discoveries on the sensing and signalling of microbial infections. The response of drosophila to virus infections remains poorly characterized, and appears to involve two facets. On one hand RNA interference (RNAi) involves the recognition and processing of dsRNA into small interfering (si) RNAs by the host ribonuclease Dicer-2 (Dcr-2), whereas on the other hand an inducible response controlled by the evolutionarily conserved JAK/STAT pathway contributes to the antiviral host defence. In order to clarify the contribution of the siRNA and JAK/STAT pathways to the control of viral infections, we have compared the resistance of flies wild-type or mutant for Dcr-2 or the JAK kinase Hopscotch (Hop) to infections by seven RNA or DNA viruses belonging to different families. Our results reveal a unique susceptibility of hop mutant flies to infection by DCV and CrPV, two members of the Dicistroviridae family. Genome-wide microarray analysis confirmed that different sets of genes were induced following infection by DCV (GSE2828) or two unrelated RNA viruses, FHV and SINV. Overall, our data reveal that RNAi is an efficient antiviral mechanism, operating against a large range of viruses, including a DNA virus. By contrast, the antiviral contribution of the JAK/STAT pathway appears to be virus-specific. For each experimental challenge (FHV, 48 or 72 hours after infection; SINV, 4 or 8 days after infection), three biologically independent samples composed of 45 male Oregon R flies were used. Infection has been performed by injecting viral stocks prepared in Tris solution. Injection of the same volume of Tris has been used as control. Infected flies were then incubated for 48 or 72 hours in the case of FHV and 4 days or 8 days in the case of SINV.

RNAseq of mouse RAW264.7 macrophages with CRISPR deletion of SGK1, SGK3, or SGK1/3 or treated with SGKi Sanofi-14h with or without DMXAA stimulation.

Project description:The STING signaling pathway is essential for the innate immune response to DNA viruses and bacteria and is important in tumor immunity. STING binding to cGAMP or to synthetic agonists leads to the activation of the kinase TBK1 which phosphorylates the transcription factor IRF3 which promotes expression of type 1 interferons such as IFNb to block viral activity. Aberrant type 1 IFN expression is associated with human diseases including autoimmunity, HIV, and cancer. Here we identify N-[4-(1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b] pyrazin-6-yl)-phenyl]-sulfonamide (Sanofi-14h), a compound with preference for inhibition of the AGC family kinase SGK3, as an inhibitor of IFNb gene expression in response to STING stimulation of macrophages. Sanofi-14h abrogated SGK activity and also impaired activation of the critical TBK1/IRF3 pathway downstream of STING activation, notably blocking the ligand-induced interaction of STING with TBK1. Deletion of SGK1 and SGK3 in macrophages suppressed activation of IFNb transcription but did not block TBK1/IRF3 activation downstream of STING. Gene and protein expression analysis revealed that deletion of SGK1/3 in a macrophage cell line decreases basal expression of critical transcription factors required for the innate immune response, such as IRF7 and STAT1. Additional studies reveal that other AGC kinase inhibitors block TBK1 and IRF3 activation suggesting common action on a critical regulatory node in the STING pathway. Thus, studies with Sanofi-14h have revealed both SGK-dependent and SGK-independent effects in the STING pathway and suggest a mechanism to alter type 1 IFN transcription through small molecule therapy

E3 ubiquitin ligase DTX2 reinforces innate antiviral immune responses by modulating K63-linked ubiquitination of TBK1

Project description:TBK1 plays a pivotal role in innate antiviral immunity, serving as a critical mediator downstream of various pattern recognition receptors (PRRs). TBK1 activity is tightly regulated by post-translational modifications (PTMs) including ubiquitination to maintain innate immune homeostasis. Here, we identify the Deltex E3 ubiquitin ligase 2 (DTX2) as a positive regulator of innate antiviral signaling in response to RNA viruses. We find that DTX2 overexpression enhances antiviral signaling, whereas loss of DTX2 evidently reduces antiviral responses. Mechanistically, we demonstrated that DTX2 directly interacts with TBK1 and promotes TBK1 K63-linked polyubiquitination to regulate antiviral signaling. Collectively, our study reveals that DTX2 plays a novel positive regulatory role in antiviral signaling by modulating the K63-linked ubiquitination of TBK1 to maintain the balance of innate antiviral immune responses.

Interferon signaling in the nasal epithelium distinguishes among lethal and common cold respiratory viruses and is critical for viral clearance

Project description:All respiratory viruses establish primary infections in the nasal epithelium, where efficient innate immune induction may prevent dissemination to the lower airway and thus minimize pathogenesis. Human coronaviruses (HCoVs) cause a range of pathologies, but the host and viral determinants of disease during common cold versus lethal HCoV infections are poorly understood. We model the initial site of infection using primary nasal epithelial cells cultured at air-liquid interface (ALI). HCoV-229E, HCoV-NL63 and human rhinovirus-16 are common cold-associated viruses that exhibit unique features in this model: early induction of antiviral interferon (IFN) signaling, IFN-mediated viral clearance, and preferential replication at nasal airway temperature (33ºC) which confers muted host IFN responses. In contrast, lethal SARS-CoV-2 and MERS-CoV encode antagonist proteins that prevent IFN-mediated clearance in nasal cultures. Our study identifies features shared among common cold-associated viruses, highlighting nasal innate immune responses as predictive of infection outcomes and nasally-directed IFNs as potential therapeutics.

Barrier-to-autointegration Factor 1 (BAF) Promotes Gammaherpesvirus Reactivation from Latency

Project description:Gammaherpesviruses, including Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), are DNA viruses that are globally associated with human cancers and establish lifelong latency in the human population. Detection of gammaherpesviral infection by the cGAS-STING innate immune DNA-sensing pathway is critical for suppressing viral reactivation from latency, a process that promotes viral pathogenesis and transmission. We report that Barrier-to-autointegration factor 1 (BAF)-mediated suppression of the cGAS-STING signaling pathway is necessary for reactivation of KSHV and EBV. We demonstrate a novel role for BAF in destabilizing cGAS expression and show that BAF expression in latently infected, reactivating, or uninfected cells leads to suppression of type I interferon-mediated antiviral responses and inhibition of viral replication. Furthermore, BAF overexpression resulted in decreased cGAS expression at the protein level. These results establish BAF as a key regulator of the lifecycle of gammaherpesviruses and a potential target for treating viral infections and malignancies.

The ETS transcription factor ELF1 regulates a critical, broadly antiviral program distinct from the type I interferon response

Project description:Induction of vast transcriptional programs is a central event of innate host responses to viral infections. Here we report a unique transcriptional program with potent antiviral activity, driven by E74-like ETS transcription factor 1 (ELF1). Using high-content microscopy to quantify viral infection over time, we found that ELF1 inhibits eight diverse RNA and DNA viruses uniquely at multi-cycle replication. Elf1 deficiency results in enhanced susceptibility to influenza A virus infections in mice. ELF1 does not feed-forward to induce interferons, and ELF1’s antiviral effect is not abolished by the absence of STAT1 or by inhibition of JAK phosphorylation. Accordingly, comparative expression analyses by RNAseq revealed that the ELF1 transcriptional program is distinct from interferon signatures. Thus, ELF1 provides an additional layer of the innate host response, independent from the action of type I interferons.
