Abstract
Retroviral reverse transcriptases (RTs) have the ability to carry out strand displacement DNA synthesis in the absence of accessory proteins. Although studies with RTs and other DNA polymerases suggest that fingers subdomain residues participate in strand displacement, molecular determinants of this activity are still unknown. A mutant human immunodeficiency virus type 2 (HIV-2) RT (M41L/D67N/K70R/S215Y) with low strand displacement activity was identified after screening a panel of purified enzymes, including several antiretroviral drug-resistant HIV-1 and HIV-2 RTs. In HIV-1, resistance to zidovudine and other thymidine analogues is conferred by different combinations of M41L, D67N, K70R, L210W, T215F/Y, and K219E/Q (designated as thymidine analogue resistance-associated mutations (TAMs)). However, those changes are rarely selected in HIV-2. We show that the strand displacement activity of HIV-2ROD mutants M41L/S215Y and D67N/K70R was only slightly reduced compared to the wild-type RT. In contrast, mutants D67N/K70R/S215Y and M41L/D67N/K70R/S215Y were the most defective RTs in reactions carried out with nicked and gapped substrates. Moreover, these enzymes showed the lowest nucleotide incorporation rates in assays carried out with strand displacement substrates. Unlike in HIV-2, substitutions M41L/T215Y and D67N/K70R/T215Y/K219Q had no effect on the strand displacement activity of HIV-1BH10 RT. The strand displacement efficiencies of HIV-2ROD RTs were consistent with the lower replication capacity of HIV-2 strains bearing the four major TAMs in their RT. Our results highlight the role of the fingers subdomain in strand displacement. These findings might be important for the development of strand-displacement defective RTs.

Limited HIV-2 reservoirs in central-memory CD4 T-cells associated to CXCR6 co-receptor expression in attenuated HIV-2 infection. PLoS Pathog 2019; 15:e1007758. [PMID: 31095640 PMCID: PMC6541300 DOI: 10.1371/journal.ppat.1007758] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2018] [Revised: 05/29/2019] [Accepted: 04/10/2019] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
The low pathogenicity and replicative potential of HIV-2 are still poorly understood. We investigated whether HIV-2 reservoirs might follow the peculiar distribution reported in models of attenuated HIV-1/SIV infections, i.e. limited infection of central-memory CD4 T lymphocytes (TCM). Antiretroviral-naive HIV-2 infected individuals from the ANRS-CO5 (12 non-progressors, 2 progressors) were prospectively included. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were sorted into monocytes and resting CD4 T-cell subsets (naive [TN], central- [TCM], transitional- [TTM] and effector-memory [TEM]). Reactivation of HIV-2 was tested in 30-day cultures of CD8-depleted PBMCs. HIV-2 DNA was quantified by real-time PCR. Cell surface markers, co-receptors and restriction factors were analyzed by flow-cytometry and multiplex transcriptomic study. HIV-2 DNA was undetectable in monocytes from all individuals and was quantifiable in TTM from 4 individuals (median: 2.25 log10 copies/106 cells [IQR: 1.99–2.94]) but in TCM from only 1 individual (1.75 log10 copies/106 cells). HIV-2 DNA levels in PBMCs (median: 1.94 log10 copies/106 PBMC [IQR = 1.53–2.13]) positively correlated with those in TTM (r = 0.66, p = 0.01) but not TCM. HIV-2 reactivation was observed in the cells from only 3 individuals. The CCR5 co-receptor was distributed similarly in cell populations from individuals and donors. TCM had a lower expression of CXCR6 transcripts (p = 0.002) than TTM confirmed by FACS analysis, and a higher expression of TRIM5 transcripts (p = 0.004). Thus the low HIV-2 reservoirs differ from HIV-1 reservoirs by the lack of monocytic infection and a limited infection of TCM associated to a lower expression of a potential alternative HIV-2 co-receptor, CXCR6 and a higher expression of a restriction factor, TRIM5. These findings shed new light on the low pathogenicity of HIV-2 infection suggesting mechanisms close to those reported in other models of attenuated HIV/SIV infection models. HIV-2 induces a still poorly understood attenuated infection compared to HIV-1. We investigated whether this infection might follow peculiarities associated with other models of attenuated HIV-1/SIV infection, i.e. a limited infection of a key subset of memory CD4 T lymphocytes, the central-memory ones (TCM). Thus we studied the infection rates in peripheral blood cells from 14 untreated HIV-2 infected individuals from the ANRS-CO5 HIV-2 cohort, and found; 1) a lack of infection of monocytes, 2) extremely low infection in central-memory CD4+ T lymphocytes while HIV-2 predominated in the transitional-memory cells, 3) a poor replicative capacity of HIV-2 in individuals cells. We then investigated the cellular expression of a hundred-host genes potentially involved in HIV-2 control. We found in individuals’ TCM cells, compared to TTM ones, a lower expression of CXCR6, a potentially alternative co-receptor of HIV-2 but not of HIV-1, and a higher expression of TRIM5α, a restriction factor to which HIV-2 is more sensitive than HIV-1. Altogether our findings shed new light on the low pathogenicity of HIV-2 suggesting mechanisms close to those reported in other models of attenuated HIV/SIV infection models.

Abstract
In this study, HIV strains circulating among military personnel were characterized, in Malabo, the capital city of Equatorial Guinea. One sample was found to be HIV-2 group A while a high degree of genetic diversity was recorded in the pol region of 41 HIV-1-positive samples. CRF02_AG accounted for 53.7% of the strains, and 11 different variants were obtained in the remaining 19 samples: subtype G (n = 3), A3 (n = 2), C (n = 2), CRF26_A5U (n = 2), F2 (n = 1), CRF06 (n = 1), CRF09 (n = 1), CRF11 (n = 1), CRF22 (n = 1), and divergent subtype A (n = 1) and F (n = 1). One strain could not be classified and three were unique recombinants. Analysis of antiretroviral drug resistance mutations revealed two patients each harboring one major mutation, M46I in protease and D67N in reverse transcriptase sequences, respectively. The high genetic diversity and emerging ARV resistance mutations call for frequent surveys and appropriate monitoring of ARV considering the increasing access to ARV in the country.

Abstract
We studied the feasibility of genotyping human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type 2 groups A and B by real-time PCR. Two group-specific PCRs were developed. Real-time genotyping of 22 samples of genotype A, 10 samples of genotype B, and the isolate of new group H were compared to genotyping by sequencing and phylogeny. The group-specific PCRs specifically identified 84.3% of group A or B samples; isolate H was not detected. This method allowed rapid and specific discrimination between HIV-2 groups A and B and could be a useful tool for molecular epidemiological studies.

Abstract
V3 enzyme immunoassays have been shown to discriminate effectively between human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) subtypes. The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility of V3 serotyping for HIV-2 infection. We serotyped 29 sera with three peptides, corresponding to the V3 loop of subtypes A, B, and D of HIV-2. Sera were collected from HIV-2-infected patients, whose infecting strains were sequenced and subjected to phylogenetic analysis. Our results indicate that HIV-2 serotyping using V3 peptides is not relevant. V3 serotyping data were not consistent with genotyping results. The V3-A and V3-D peptides displayed poor discrimination, and the V3-B peptide was not representative of circulating viruses. Comparison of amino acid sequences and serotype reactivities demonstrated the importance of positions 309 and 314, located on either side of the tip of the V3 loop, in antibody binding.

Abstract
In West Africa, India, and certain regions of Europe, both human immunodeficiency viruses types 1 and 2 (HIV-1 and HIV-2) are known to cocirculate. To investigate the HIV-1 subtypes involved in dual HIV-1 and HIV-2 infections, we sequenced the envelope C2-V3 region from 29 dually infected female commercial sex workers from Senegal. The majority of women (23 of 29) were infected by HIV-1 subtype A. Within the HIV-1 subtype A sequences, 14 of 23 (60.8%) clustered with the West African associated A/G recombinant form (IbNG), and 9 of 23 (39.2%) formed a separate cluster distinct from the A/G IbNG. In contrast, in HIV-1 singly infected individuals, non-IbNG subtype A was found in only 13 of 98 (13.3%). Therefore, the lack of protection and/or interaction with HIV-2 was associated with a distinct HIV-1 A genotype. These results suggest differences in the biological properties of HIV-1 genotypes and their in vivo interaction with HIV-2.
