Multifaceted roles of RAP80 during the Herpes simplex virus 1 life cycle

ABSTRACT: Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) is a widespread human pathogen that establishes lifelong infections, but understanding precise activity at each infection stage remains challenging. HSV-1 utilizes ubiquitination pathways to modulate cellular factors to facilitate its replication cycle, however, elucidating the cascades that follow host protein degradation and the subsequent impact on the host-virus equilibrium continues to be a complex endeavor. Here we reveal the multifaceted role of the DNA damage response protein RAP80 throughout HSV-1’s infection cycle. In early stages, RAP80 inhibits HSV-1 transcription by directly binding to the viral genome, blocking ICP4 (viral protein) binding to transcription factors. This interaction is regulated by phase separation via an intricate interplay between RAP80 and ICP0/ICP4. As infection progresses, the viral E3 ligase ICP0 degrades RAP80, dissolving phase separation, and allowing the formation of a mature viral replication compartment. In late infection stages, RAP80 is deubiquitinated by the viral deubiquitinase UL36USP, which restores cellular homeostasis and promotes HSV-1 survival. This process involves modulating the R-loop-cGAS-apoptosis pathway. These findings underscore the dynamic interplay between viral and host factors and the complex mechanisms used by HSV-1 to subvert host defenses, offering practical implications for the future development of antiviral strategies.

Identification of viral and host targets of miR-138 by PAR-CLIP analysis of herpes simplex virus 2 infected 293T cells

Project description:Like herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) ICP0 mRNA, HSV-2 ICP0 mRNA is predicted to be targeted by a host neuron-specific microRNA, miR-138. This study was designed to confirm the interaction between HSV-2 ICP0 mRNA and miR-138, and to identify other potential viral and host targets of miR-138 during HSV-2 infection. We performed PAR-CLIP on HSV-2 infected 293T cells overexpressing miR-138 in comparisin to control 293T cells. The results confirmed ICP0 as miR-138's targets, and also identified some other potential viral and host targets of miR-138.

Identification of SLFN5 as an intrinsic inhibitor of viral transcription antagonized by the herpes simplex virus ubiquitin ligase ICP0

Project description:Intrinsic antiviral host factors are proteins that can confer cellular defense by limiting virus replication. Viruses hijack ubiquitin machinery to modify the cellular proteome to subvert these host defenses. The herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) expresses ICP0, which functions as an E3 ubiquitin ligase required to promote infection. Cellular substrates of ICP0 have been discovered as host barriers to infection but the mechanisms for inhibition of viral gene expression are not fully understood. To identify new restriction factors antagonized by ICP0, we compared the proteomes associated with viral DNA (vDNA) during HSV-1 infection with wild-type (WT) virus and a mutant lacking functional ICP0 (ΔICP0). We identified the cellular protein Schlafen 5 (SLFN5) as a new ICP0 target that binds vDNA during HSV-1 ΔICP0 infection. We demonstrated that ICP0 mediates ubiquitination of SLFN5 which leads to its proteasomal degradation. In the absence of ICP0, we demonstrate SLFN5 binds vDNA to represses HSV-1 transcription by limiting accessibility of RNA polymerase II to viral promoters. These results identify SLFN5 as a new restriction factor that inhibits viral transcription and document the first viral countermeasure reported to overcome SLFN antiviral activity.

Genome-wide analysis of RNA polymerase II occupancy during HSV-1 infection in the presence and absence of ICP4.

Project description:The goal of this study was to identify how the occupancy of RNA polymerase II (Pol II) on the host genome changes during HSV-1 infection and is impacted by the viral immediate early protein ICP4. Pol II ChIP-seq experiments after infection with the wild-type (WT) virus and mutant ICP4 (n12) virus, compared to mock infection, revealed global increases and decreases in Pol II occupancy on the host genome that depended upon ICP4.

Identification of targets of miR-138 in Neuro-2a and 293T cells by RNAseq

Project description:We previously showed that miR-138 can repress herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) ICP0 expression by binding to ICP0 mRNA. However, in this study we found that miR-138 can also repress viral gene expression independent of ICP0. We did not find other confirmed viral targets of miR-138. Therefore we conducted these RNAseq experiments (in combination with PAR-CLIP experiments whose results are uploaded separately) to identify host targets of miR-138 in two cell lines to explain the ICP0-independent effects on HSV-1 gene expression.

Immediate early proteins of herpes simplex virus transiently repress viral transcription before subsequent activation.

Project description:This study was undertaken to further clarify the roles of HSV-1 immediately early (IE) genes ICP4, ICP0, and ICP22 in early viral transcription. Precision nuclear Run On followed by deep Sequencing (PRO-Seq) was used to identify sites of Pol activity to high resolution on the genomes of HSV-1 viruses bearing mutations in a0, a4 or a22/US1, and corresponding viruses in which these loci were genetically restored. The results indicated that prior to initiating activation of transcription, IE genes first mediate transcriptional repression.

Parallel G-quadruplexes recruit the HSV-1 transcription factor ICP4 to promote viral transcription in herpes virus-infected human cells

Project description:G-quadruplexes (G4s) are four-stranded nucleic acid structures abundant at gene promoters. They can adopt several distinctive conformations. G4s have been shown to form in the herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1) genome during its viral cycle. Here by cross-linking/pull-down assay we identified ICP4, the major HSV-1 transcription factor, as the protein that most efficiently interacts with viral G4s during infection. ICP4 specific and direct binding and unfolding of parallel G4s, including those present in HSV-1 immediate early gene promoters, induced transcription in vitro and in infected cells. This mechanism was also exploited by ICP4 to promote its own transcription. Proximity ligation assay allowed visualization of G4-protein interaction at the single selected G4 in cells. G4 ligands inhibited ICP4 binding to G4s. Our results indicate the existence of a well-defined G4-viral protein network that regulates the productive HSV-1 cycle. They also point to G4s as elements that recruit transcription factors to activate transcription in cells.

Transcriptomic analysis of early HSV-1 transcription in the absence of the immediate early protein, ICP4 [PROSeq]

Project description:Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) transcription is tightly regulated in a temporal cascade, utilizing cellular RNA polymerase (Pol). We previously observed that infection with HSV-1 mutants lacking immediate early (IE) genes a0, a4 and a22 exhibited unusually high levels of aberrant transcription across the viral genome at just 1.5 hpi. The strongest effect occurred in the absence of a4, which is both an essential transcriptional activator and repressor. The goal of the current study was to define the mechanism of ICP4-mediated early transcriptional repression on the viral genome. Using the transcriptomic tools PRO-Cap, PRO-Seq, GRO-Seq and Nanopore direct RNA sequencing we found that initiation was elevated at viral promoters of all temporal classes in the absence of ICP4. Despite higher levels of initiation, transcription of non-IE genes was stalled within gene bodies and did not lead to production of mature mRNA. We therefore posit that HSV-1 retains additional ICP4-independent mechanisms to limit expression of viral genes that initiate prematurely. The data also indicated rapid release from promoter proximal pausing and progression along HSV IE genes and revealed termination as an important rate -limiting regulatory step. These findings highlight multiple mechanisms that HSV-1 employs to regulate early transcription and identify ICP4’s repressive role is to restrict initiation on non IE genes, thereby ensuring correct progression of the temporal cascade.
