Project description:Viruses express several classes of non-coding (nc) RNAs1. For most of them, the functions and mechanisms by which they act are unknown. Herpesvirus saimiri (HVS), a g-herpesvirus that establishes latency in T cells of New World primates and has the ability to cause aggressive leukemias and lymphomas in non-natural hosts2, expresses seven small nuclear (sn), U-rich ncRNAs called HSURs in latently infected cells3-5. HSURs associate with Sm proteins and share biogenesis and structural features with cellular Sm-class snRNAs4,6. One of these viral snRNAs, HSUR 2, base-pairs with two host microRNAs (miRNAs), miR-142-3p and miR-167. However, HSUR 2 does not affect the abundance or activity of these two cellular miRNAs, suggesting alternative functions for these interactions. Here we show that HSUR 2 also base-pairs with messenger RNAs (mRNAs) in infected cells. We combined in vivo psoralen-mediated RNA-RNA crosslinking and high-throughput sequencing to identify mRNAs targeted by HSUR 2. HSUR 2 targets include mRNAs encoding Retinoblastoma (pRb) and factors involved in p53 signaling and apoptosis. We show that HSUR 2 represses expression of target mRNAs. Base-pairing between HSUR 2 and miR-142-3p and miR-16 is essential for HSUR 2-mediated mRNA repression, suggesting that HSUR 2 recruits these two cellular miRNAs to target mRNAs. Moreover, we show that HSUR 2 utilizes this mechanism to inhibit apoptosis. Our results uncover a role for a viral Sm-class RNA as a miRNA adaptor in post pre-mRNA-processing regulation of gene expression.

Project description:In latently-infected marmoset T cells, Herpesvirus saimiri (HVS) expresses six microRNAs (known as miR-HSURs). The viral miR-HSURs are processed from chimeric primary transcripts, each containing a noncoding U-rich RNA (HSUR) and a pre-miRNA hairpin. To uncover functions of miR-HSURs, we identified mRNA targets in infected cells using High-Throughput Sequencing of RNA Isolated by Crosslinking Immunoprecipitation (HITS-CLIP). HITS-CLIP revealed hundreds of robust Argonaute (Ago) binding sites mediated by miR-HSURs in the host genome, but few in the HVS genome. Gene Ontology analysis showed that several pathways regulating the cell cycle are enriched among cellular targets of miR-HSURs. Interestingly, miR-HSUR4-3p represses expression of the p300 transcriptional co-activator by binding the open reading frame of its mRNA. miR-HSUR5-3p directly regulates BiP, an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) localized chaperone facilitating maturation of the Major Histocompatibility Complex I (MHC I) and the antiviral response. miR-HSUR5-3p also robustly downregulates WEE1, a key negative regulator of cell-cycle progression, leading to reduced phosphorylation of its substrate cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk1). Consistently, inhibition of miR-HSUR5-3p in HVS-infected cells decreases their proliferation. Together, our results shed light on the roles of viral miRNAs in cellular transformation and viral latency.

Project description:Herpesviruses, including the oncogenic Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV), must bypass host DNA sensing mechanisms to drive infection and pathogenesis. The first viral latency protein expressed, EBNA-LP, is essential for the transformation of naïve B cells, yet its role in evading host defenses remains unclear. Using single-cell RNA sequencing of EBNA-LP-Knockout (LPKO)-infected B cells, we reveal an antiviral response landscape implicating the ‘speckled proteins’ as key restriction factors countered by EBNA-LP. Specifically, loss of SP100 or the primate-specific SP140L reverses the restriction of LPKO, suppresses a subset of canonically interferon-stimulated genes, and restores viral gene transcription and cellular proliferation. Notably, we also identify Sp140L as a restriction target of the herpesvirus saimiri ORF3 protein, implying a role in immunity to other DNA viruses. This study reveals Sp140L as a restriction factor that we propose links sensing and transcriptional suppression of viral DNA to an IFN-independent innate immune response, likely relevant to all nuclear DNA viruses.

Project description:Roseolovirus, or human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) is a ubiquitous human pathogen infecting over 95% of the population by the age of two years. As with other herpesviruses, reactivation of HHV-6 can present with severe complications in immunocompromised individuals. Recent studies have highlighted the importance of herpesvirus-derived micro (mi)RNAs in modulating both cellular and viral gene expression. An initial report, which computed the likelihood of various viruses to encode for miRNAs, did not predict HHV-6 miRNAs. To experimentally screen for small HHV-6 encoded RNAs, we conducted large-scale sequencing of Sup-T-1 cells lytically infected with a laboratory strain of HHV-6B. This revealed an abundant 60-65 nucleotide RNA of unknown function derived from the lytic origin of replication (OriLyt) that gave rise to smaller RNA species of 18-19 nucleotides in length. In addition, we identified four pre-miRNAs, whose mature forms accumulated in Argonaute 2. In contrast to other beta-herpesviruses, HHV-6B miRNAs are expressed from direct repeat regions (DRL and DRR) located at either side of the genome. All miRNAs are conserved in the closely related HHV-6A variant, and one of them is a seed ortholog of the human miR-582-5p. Similar to alpha-herpesvirus miRNAs, they are expressed antisense to immediate early ORFs and thus have the potential to regulate key viral regulators.

Project description:In infection with an adenovirus, it remains to be clarified whether host miRNAs affect Ad replication. We focused on miR-27 as an miRNA crucial for regulation of Ad infection because miR-27 has been reported to be involved in infection of other viruses, including MCMV and herpesvirus saimiri (HVS). We used microarrays to detail gene expression profiles in miR-27a/b-overexpressing HeLa cells and demonstarted that expression levels of various genes were down- or up-regulated following transfection with miR-27a/b mimics.
