Immune activation promotes evolutionary conservation of T-cell epitopes in HIV-1.

Abstract:
The immune system should constitute a strong selective pressure promoting viral genetic diversity and evolution. However, HIV shows lower sequence variability at T-cell epitopes than elsewhere in the genome, in contrast with other human RNA viruses. Here, we propose that epitope conservation is a consequence of the particular interactions established between HIV and the immune system. On one hand, epitope recognition triggers an anti-HIV response mediated by cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTLs), but on the other hand, activation of CD4(+) helper T lymphocytes (TH cells) promotes HIV replication. Mathematical modeling of these opposite selective forces revealed that selection at the intrapatient level can promote either T-cell epitope conservation or escape. We predict greater conservation for epitopes contributing significantly to total immune activation levels (immunodominance), and when TH cell infection is concomitant to epitope recognition (trans-infection). We suggest that HIV-driven immune activation in the lymph nodes during the chronic stage of the disease may offer a favorable scenario for epitope conservation. Our results also support the view that some pathogens draw benefits from the immune response and suggest that vaccination strategies based on conserved TH epitopes may be counterproductive.
Note from the author:
this version of the model is more general that the one described in the paper. This is because: (i) it can consider simultaneously Th-epitope escape mutants, CTL-epitope escape mutants and full T-cell (Th and CTL) escape mutants, by setting the mutation rate of Th and CTL escape mutants to zero. (ii) It allows for back mutations, which were ignored in all the simulations shown in the paper. (iii) It allows for a fitness cost of escape mutants, which was set to zero in the article. (iv) pAPCs can be infected and produce viruses (the rate of viral production for pAPCs was set to zero in the paper).

Project description:Although the chromatin regulator CTCF is enriched at genes escaping from X-chromosome inactivation (XCI), molecular mechanisms remain elusive. We examined CTCF and epigenetic features at escape genes on the inactive X (Xi) in mouse F1 hybrid cells and tissues. We found that escape genes are located inside topologically insulated domains limited by convergent arrays of CTCF binding sites, suggesting loop formation. Xi-specific deletion of a CTCF right boundary of the escape gene Car5b caused loss of CTCF binding and changes of histone modifications at Car5b and abolished escape, suggesting loss of insulation. This is consistent with Car5b lack of escape in mouse brain showing no CTCF binding at the boundary. Inversion of this boundary had no effect on Car5b escape, suggesting that tandem coiled looping could still function as insulation. To test whether chromatin features of the Xi could affect escape we examined mutants in which the Xi-specific compact structure is disrupted or there is loss of H3K27me3 enrichment. We found that both conditions cause an Xi-specific increase in active marks and gene expression at escape regions, suggesting that the 3D structure and heterochromatic marks of the Xi play a role in modulating escape levels of genes insulated by CTCF.

Project description:X chromosome inactivation (XCI) silences most genes on one X chromosome in female mammals, but some genes escape XCI. To identify escape gene in vivo and to explore molecular mechanisms that regulate this process we analyzed the allele-specific expression and chromatin structure of X-linked genes in mouse tissues and cells with skewed XCI and distinguishable alleles based on single nucleotide polymorphisms. Using a new method to estimate allelic expression, we demonstrate a continuum between complete silencing and significant expression from the inactive X (Xi). Few genes (2-3%) escape XCI to a significant level and only a minority differs between mouse tissues, suggesting stringent silencing and escape controls. Allelic profiles of DNase I hypersensitivity and RNA polymerase II occupancy of genes on the Xi correlate with escape from XCI. Allelic binding profiles of the DNA binding protein CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) in different cell types indicate that CTCF binding at the promoter correlates with escape. Importantly, CTCF binding at the boundary between escape and silenced domains may prevent the spreading of active escape chromatin into silenced domains.
