Altered Subgenomic RNA Abundance in SARS-CoV-2 B.1.1.7 Infections

Project description:SARS-CoV-2 lineage B.1.1.7 viruses are more transmissible, may lead to greater clinical severity, and result in modest reductions in antibody neutralization. Subgenomic RNA(sgRNA) is produced by discontinuous transcription of the SARS-CoV-2 genome. Applying our tool(periscope) to ARTIC Network Nanopore genomic sequencing data from 4400 SARS-CoV-2 positive clinical samples, we show that normalised sgRNA is significantly increased in B.1.1.7(alpha) infections(n=879). This increase is seen over the previous dominant circulating UK lineage, B.1.177(n=943), which is independent of genomic reads, E-gene cycle-threshold and days since symptom onset at sampling. A noncanonical sgRNA which could represent ORF9b is found in 98.4% of B.1.1.7 SARS-CoV-2 infections compared with only 13.8% of other lineages, with a 16-fold increase in median sgRNA abundance. We demonstrate that ORF9b protein levels are increased 6-fold in B.1.1.7 compared to a B lineage virus during in vitro culture. We hypothesise that this enhanced presence of ORF9b in B.1.1.7 viruses is a direct consequence of a triple nucleotide mutation in nucleocapsid(28280:GAT>CAT,D3L) creating a transcription regulatory-like sequence complementary to a region 3’ of the genomic leader. These findings provide a unique insight into the biology of B.1.1.7 and support monitoring of sgRNA profiles in sequence data to evaluate emerging potential variants of concern.

Altered subgenomic RNA abundance provides unique insight into SARS-CoV-2 B.1.1.7/Alpha variant infections.

Project description:B.1.1.7 lineage SARS-CoV-2 is more transmissible, leads to greater clinical severity, and results in modest reductions in antibody neutralization. Subgenomic RNA (sgRNA) is produced by discontinuous transcription of the SARS-CoV-2 genome. Applying our tool (periscope) to ARTIC Network Oxford Nanopore Technologies genomic sequencing data from 4400 SARS-CoV-2 positive clinical samples, we show that normalised sgRNA is significantly increased in B.1.1.7 (alpha) infections (n = 879). This increase is seen over the previous dominant lineage in the UK, B.1.177 (n = 943), which is independent of genomic reads, E cycle threshold and days since symptom onset at sampling.

We demonstrate that ORF9b protein levels are increased 6-fold in B.1.1.7 compared to a B lineage virus in vitro. We hypothesise that increased ORF9b in B.1.1.7 is a direct consequence of a triple nucleotide mutation in nucleocapsid (28280:GAT > CAT, D3L) creating a transcription regulatory-like sequence complementary to a region 3' of the genomic leader. These findings provide a unique insight into the biology of B.1.1.7 and support monitoring of sgRNA profiles to evaluate emerging potential variants of concern.

RNA-seq time-course of Calu-3 cells infected with SARS-CoV-2 early-lineage and Alpha variant viruses

Project description:Emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOCs), including the globally successful Alpha (B.1.1.7) variant, suggests viral adaptation to enhance human-to-human transmission. Although much effort has focused on characterisation of spike changes, Alpha mutations outside spike likely contribute to adaptation. Here we used RNAseq as well as viral replication assays to show that Alpha isolates more effectively suppress innate immune responses (ISGs as assessed by RNA) in airway epithelial cells, compared to first wave isolates. We found that Alpha has dramatically increased subgenomic RNA and protein levels of N, Orf9b and Orf6, all known innate immune antagonists.
