Project description:Several cellular factors, including the nuclear lamina, regulate chromatin composition and architecture. While the interaction of the viral genome with the nuclear lamina has been studied in the context of EBV lytic reactivation, the role of the nuclear lamina in controlling EBV latency has not been investigated. Here, we report that the nuclear lamina is an essential epigenetic regulator of the EBV episome.

Project description:Approximately 90% of the world population is infected with EBV and carries the virus in a silent, asymptomatic state for life. In immunocompromised individuals, EBV infection can cause B-cell transformation and malignancies. One approach to control EBV infectivity is by changing the expression of viral genes. We are interested in how epigenetics contributes to regulating the gene expression patterns adopted by EBV during latency. The host’s hijacking is a well know strategy adopted by viruses to modify the epigenome, the transcriptome and the proteome of the host with the aim to survive and remain silent in the host. We observed that in B cells, EBV infection mimics antigen-mediated activation, resulting in the induction of specific proteins named Lamin A/C. Lamins have multiple and central roles: they provide nuclear physical support, anchor the heterochromatin to the nuclear periphery and seem to play a role in several nuclear functions requiring the chromatin structure rearrangement. The interaction with lamins has already been studied in the context of EBV lytic reactivation, but their role in the control of the EBV latency states and as epigenetic regulators of different EBV genes expression profiles has not been investigated. The binding of the Lamin AC to important regulatory regions of EBV genome was assessed through ChIP-Seq, and gene expression (RNA-Seq) profiles were evaluated in wild type and Lamin AC KO cell lines. Differences in protein and RNA expressions in B cells activated by using both EBV and a simulation of the immune response were analyzed. Our data suggest two main conclusions: lamins might contribute to the epigenetic control of EBV genes expression during latency changing the interaction of the host structural proteins with key regulatory regions in the viral genome and a possible mechanism with who EBV modifies the nucleus and hijacks cellular mechanisms.

Project description:The Epstein Barr virus (EBV) infects almost 95% of the population worldwide. While typically asymptomatic, EBV latent infection is associated with several malignancies of epithelial and lymphoid origin in immunocompromised individuals. In latently infected cells, the EBV genome persists as a chromatinized episome that expresses a limited set of viral genes in different patterns, referred to as latency types, which coincide with varying stages of infection and various malignancies. We have previously demonstrated that latency types correlate with differences in the composition and structure of the EBV episome. Several cellular factors, including the nuclear lamina, regulate chromatin composition and architecture. While the interaction of the viral genome with the nuclear lamina has been studied in the context of EBV lytic reactivation, the role of the nuclear lamina in controlling EBV latency has not been investigated. Here, we report that the nuclear lamina is an essential epigenetic regulator of the EBV episome. We observed that in B cells, EBV infection affects the composition of the nuclear lamina by inducing the expression of lamin A/C, but only in EBV+ cells expressing the Type III latency program. Using ChIP-Seq, we determined that lamin B1 and lamin A/C bind the EBV genome, and their binding correlates with deposition of the histone repressive mark H3K9me2. By RNA-Seq, we observed that knock-out of lamin A/C in B cells alters EBV gene expression. Our data indicate that the interaction between lamins and the EBV episome contributes to the epigenetic control of viral gene expression during latency, suggesting a restrictive function of the nuclear lamina as part of the host response against viral DNA entry into the nucleus.

Project description:Deciphering the molecular pathogenesis of virally induced cancers is challenging due, in part, to the heterogeneity of both viral and host gene expression. Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) is a ubiquitous herpesvirus prevalent in B-cell lymphomas of the immune suppressed. EBV infection of primary human B cells leads to their immortalization into lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) serving as a model of these lymphomas. In previous studies, our lab has described a temporal model for immortalization with an initial phase characterized by expression of the Epstein-Barr Nuclear Antigens (EBNAs), high c-Myc activity, and hyper-proliferation in the absence of the Latent Membrane Proteins (LMPs), called latency IIb. This is followed by the long-term outgrowth of LCLs expressing the EBNAs along with the LMPs, particularly the NFkB-activating LMP1, defining latency III. LCLs, however, express a broad distribution of LMP1 such that a subset of these cells expresses LMP1 at levels seen in latency IIb, making it difficult to distinguish these two latency states. In this study, we performed mRNA-Seq on early EBV-infected latency IIb cells and latency III LCLs sorted by NFkB activity. We found that latency IIb transcriptomes clustered independently from latency III independent of NFkB. We identified and validated mRNAs defining these latency states. Indeed, we were able to distinguish latency IIb cells from LCLs expressing low levels of LMP1 using multiplex RNA-FISH targeting EBV EBNA2, LMP1, and human CCR7 or MGST1. This study defines latency IIb as a bona fide latency state independent from latency III and identifies biomarkers for understanding EBV-associated tumor heterogeneity

Project description:As a human tumor virus, EBV is present as a latent infection in its associated malignancies where genetic and epigenetic changes have been shown to impede cellular differentiation and viral reactivation. One such change is increased levels of the Wnt signaling effector, lymphoid enhancer binding factor 1 (LEF1) following EBV epithelial infection. In silico analysis of EBV type 1 and 2 genomes identified over 20 Wnt-response elements suggesting that LEF1 may directly bind the EBV genome and regulate the viral life cycle. Using CUT&RUN-seq, LEF1 was shown to bind the latent EBV genome at various sites encoding viral lytic products that included the immediate early transactivator BZLF1 and viral primase BSLF1 genes. SiRNA depletion of specific LEF1 isoforms revealed that the alternative-promoter derived isoform with an N-terminal truncation (∆N LEF1) transcriptionally repressed lytic genes associated with LEF1 binding. Furthermore, forced expression of the ∆N LEF1 isoform antagonized EBV reactivation from latency. The LEF1 mediated repression requires histone deacetylase activity through either recruitment or a direct intrinsic histone deacetylase activity. SiRNA depletion of LEF1 resulted in increased histone 3 lysine 9 and lysine 27 acetylation at LEF1 binding sites and across the EBV genome. These results support a novel role for LEF1 in maintaining EBV latency and restriction viral reactivation via repressive chromatin remodeling of critical lytic cycle factors
