Redundant and Specific Roles of A-Type Lamins and Lamin B Receptor in Herpes Simplex Virus 1 Infection. J Virol 2022; 96:e0142922.

Abstract
We investigated whether A-type lamins (lamin A/C) and lamin B receptor (LBR) are redundant during herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) infection in HeLa cells expressing lamin A/C and LBR. Lamin A/C and LBR double knockout (KO) in HSV-1-infected HeLa cells significantly impaired expressions of HSV-1 early and late genes, maturation of replication compartments, marginalization of host chromatin to the nuclear periphery, enlargement of host cell nuclei, and viral DNA replication. Phenotypes of HSV-1-infected HeLa cells were restored by the ectopic expression of lamin A/C or LBR in lamin A/C and LBR double KO cells. Of note, lamin A/C single KO, but not LBR single KO, promoted the aberrant accumulation of virus particles outside the inner nuclear membrane (INM) and viral replication, as well as decreasing the frequency of virus particles inside the INM without affecting viral gene expression and DNA replication, time-spatial organization of replication compartments and host chromatin, and nuclear enlargement. These results indicated that lamin A/C and LBR had redundant and specific roles during HSV-1 infection. Thus, lamin A/C and LBR redundantly regulated the dynamics of the nuclear architecture, including the time-spatial organization of replication compartments and host chromatin, as well as promoting nuclear enlargement for efficient HSV-1 gene expression and DNA replication. In contrast, lamin A/C inhibited HSV-1 nuclear export through the INM during viral nuclear egress, which is a unique property of lamin A/C. IMPORTANCE This study demonstrated that lamin A/C and LBR had redundant functions associated with HSV-1 gene expression and DNA replication by regulating the dynamics of the nuclear architecture during HSV-1 infection. This is the first report to demonstrate the redundant roles of lamin A/C and LBR as well as the involvement of LBR in the regulation of these viral and cellular features in HSV-1-infected cells. These findings provide evidence for the specific property of lamin A/C to inhibit HSV-1 nuclear egress, which has long been considered but without direct proof.

Interplay between Autophagy and Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1: ICP34.5, One of the Main Actors. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232113643.

Abstract
Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is a neurotropic virus that occasionally may spread to the central nervous system (CNS), being the most common cause of sporadic encephalitis. One of the main neurovirulence factors of HSV-1 is the protein ICP34.5, which although it initially seems to be relevant only in neuronal infections, it can also promote viral replication in non-neuronal cells. New ICP34.5 functions have been discovered during recent years, and some of them have been questioned. This review describes the mechanisms of ICP34.5 to control cellular antiviral responses and debates its most controversial functions. One of the most discussed roles of ICP34.5 is autophagy inhibition. Although autophagy is considered a defense mechanism against viral infections, current evidence suggests that this antiviral function is only one side of the coin. Different types of autophagic pathways interact with HSV-1 impairing or enhancing the infection, and both the virus and the host cell modulate these pathways to tip the scales in its favor. In this review, we summarize the recent progress on the interplay between autophagy and HSV-1, focusing on the intricate role of ICP34.5 in the modulation of this pathway to fight the battle against cellular defenses.

Abstract
Neutrophils are the most abundant circulating white blood cells and one of the major cell types of the innate immune system. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are a result of the extracellular release of nuclear chromatin from the ruptured nuclear envelope and plasma membrane. The externalized chromatin is an ancient defense weapon for animals to entrap and kill microorganisms in the extracellular milieu, thus protecting animals ranging from lower invertebrates to higher vertebrates. Although the externalized chromatin has the advantage of acting as anti-infective to protect against infections, extracellular chromatin might be problematic in higher vertebrate animals as they have an adaptive immune system that can trigger further immune or autoimmune responses. NETs and their associated nuclear and/or cytoplasmic components may induce sterile inflammation, immune, and autoimmune responses, leading to various human diseases. Though important in human pathophysiology, the cellular and molecular mechanisms of NET formation (also called NETosis) are not well understood. Given that nuclear chromatin forms the backbone of NETs, the nucleus is the root of the nuclear DNA extracellular traps. Thus, nuclear chromatin decondensation, along with the rupture of nuclear envelope and plasma membrane, is required for nuclear chromatin extracellular release and NET formation. So far, most of the literature focuses on certain signaling pathways, which are involved in NET formation but without explanation of cellular events and morphological changes described above. Here, we have summarized emerging evidence and discuss new mechanistic understanding, with our perspectives, in NET formation in neutrophils.

Abstract
Lamins are the ancient type V intermediate filament proteins contributing to diverse biological functions, such as the maintenance of nuclear morphology, stabilization of chromatin architecture, regulation of cell cycle progression, regulation of spatial-temporal gene expressions, and transduction of mechano-signaling. Deregulation of lamins is associated with abnormal nuclear morphology and chromatin disorganization, leading to a variety of diseases such as laminopathy and premature aging, and might also play a role in cancer. Accumulating evidence indicates that lamins are functionally regulated by post-translational modifications (PTMs) including farnesylation, phosphorylation, acetylation, SUMOylation, methylation, ubiquitination, and O-GlcNAcylation that affect protein stabilization and the association with chromatin or associated proteins. The mechanisms by which these PTMs are modified and the relevant functionality become increasingly appreciated as understanding of these changes provides new insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying the laminopathies concerned and novel strategies for the management. In this review, we discussed a range of lamin PTMs and their roles in both physiological and pathological processes, as well as potential therapeutic strategies by targeting lamin PTMs.

Role of the Orphan Transporter SLC35E1 in the Nuclear Egress of Herpes Simplex Virus 1. J Virol 2022; 96:e0030622. [PMID: 35475666 DOI: 10.1128/jvi.00306-22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
This study developed a system consisting of two rounds of screening cellular proteins involved in the nuclear egress of herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1). Using this system, we first screened cellular proteins that interacted with the HSV-1 nuclear egress complex (NEC) consisting of UL34 and UL31 in HSV-1-infected cells, which are critical for the nuclear egress of HSV-1, by tandem affinity purification coupled with mass spectrometry-based proteomics technology. Next, we performed CRISPR/Cas9-based screening of live HSV-1-infected reporter cells under fluorescence microscopy using single guide RNAs targeting the cellular proteins identified in the first proteomic screening to detect the mislocalization of the lamin-associated protein emerin, which is a phenotype for defects in HSV-1 nuclear egress. This study focused on a cellular orphan transporter SLC35E1, one of the cellular proteins identified by the screening system. Knockout of SLC35E1 reduced HSV-1 replication and induced membranous invaginations containing perinuclear enveloped virions (PEVs) adjacent to the nuclear membrane (NM), aberrant accumulation of PEVs in the perinuclear space between the inner and outer NMs and the invagination structures, and mislocalization of the NEC. These effects were similar to those of previously reported mutation(s) in HSV-1 proteins and depletion of cellular proteins that are important for HSV-1 de-envelopment, one of the steps required for HSV-1 nuclear egress. Our newly established screening system enabled us to identify a novel cellular protein required for efficient HSV-1 de-envelopment. IMPORTANCE The identification of cellular protein(s) that interact with viral effector proteins and function in important viral procedures is necessary for enhancing our understanding of the mechanics of various viral processes. In this study, we established a new system consisting of interactome screening for the herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) nuclear egress complex (NEC), followed by loss-of-function screening to target the identified putative NEC-interacting cellular proteins to detect a defect in HSV-1 nuclear egress. This newly established system identified SLC35E1, an orphan transporter, as a novel cellular protein required for efficient HSV-1 de-envelopment, providing an insight into the mechanisms involved in this viral procedure.

Abstract
The key factor of genome instability during aging is transposon dysregulation. This may be due to senile changes in the expression of lamins, which epigenetically modulate transposons. Lamins directly physically interact with transposons. Epigenetic regulators such as SIRT7, BAF, and microRNA can also serve as intermediaries for their interactions. There is also an inverse regulation, since transposons are sources of miRNAs that affect lamins. We suggest that lamins can be attributed to epigenetic factors, since they are part of the NURD, interact with histone deacetylases and regulate gene expression without changing the nucleotide sequences. The role of lamins in the etiopathogenesis of premature aging syndromes may be associated with interactions with transposons. In various human cells, LINE1 is present in the heterochromatin domains of the genome associated with lamins, while SIRT7 facilitates the interaction of this retroelement with lamins. Both retroelements and the nuclear lamina play an important role in the antiviral response of organisms. This may be due to the role of lamins in protection from both viruses and transposons, since viruses and transposons are evolutionarily related. Transposable elements and lamins are secondary messengers of environmental stressors that can serve as triggers for aging and carcinogenesis. Transposons play a role in the development of cancer, while the microRNAs derived from them, participating in the etiopathogenesis of tumors, are important in human aging. Lamins have similar properties, since lamins are dysregulated in cancer, and microRNAs affecting them are involved in carcinogenesis. Changes in the expression of specif ic microRNAs were also revealed
in laminopathies. Identif ication of the epigenetic mechanisms of interaction of lamins with transposons during
aging
can become the basis for the development of methods of life extension and targeted therapy of age-associated
cancer

The Molecular Mechanism of Herpes Simplex Virus 1 UL31 in Antagonizing the Activity of IFN-β. Microbiol Spectr 2022; 10:e0188321. [PMID: 35196784 PMCID: PMC8865407 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.01883-21] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2021] [Accepted: 01/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Virus infection triggers intricate signal cascade reactions to activate the host innate immunity, which leads to the production of type I interferon (IFN-I). Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1), a human-restricted pathogen, is capable of encoding over 80 viral proteins, and several of them are involved in immune evasion to resist the host antiviral response through the IFN-I signaling pathway. Here, we determined that HSV-1 UL31, which is associated with nuclear matrix and is essential for the formation of viral nuclear egress complex, could inhibit retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I)-like receptor pathway-mediated interferon beta (IFN-β)-luciferase (Luc) and (PRDIII-I)4-Luc (an expression plasmid of IFN-β positive regulatory elements III and I) promoter activation, as well as the mRNA transcription of IFN-β and downstream interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs), such as ISG15, ISG54, ISG56, etc., to promote viral infection. UL31 was shown to restrain IFN-β activation at the interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3)/IRF7 level. Mechanically, UL31 was demonstrated to interact with TANK binding kinase 1 (TBK1), inducible IκB kinase (IKKi), and IRF3 to impede the formation of the IKKi-IRF3 complex but not the formation of the IRF7-related complex. UL31 could constrain the dimerization and nuclear translocation of IRF3. Although UL31 was associated with the CREB binding protein (CBP)/p300 coactivators, it could not efficiently hamper the formation of the CBP/p300-IRF3 complex. In addition, UL31 could facilitate the degradation of IKKi and IRF3 by mediating their K48-linked polyubiquitination. Taken together, these results illustrated that UL31 was able to suppress IFN-β activity by inhibiting the activation of IKKi and IRF3, which may contribute to the knowledge of a new immune evasion mechanism during HSV-1 infection. IMPORTANCE The innate immune system is the first line of host defense against the invasion of pathogens. Among its mechanisms, IFN-I is an essential cytokine in the antiviral response, which can help the host eliminate a virus. HSV-1 is a double-stranded DNA virus that can cause herpes and establish a lifelong latent infection, due to its possession of multiple mechanisms to escape host innate immunity. In this study, we illustrate for the first time that the HSV-1-encoded UL31 protein has a negative regulatory effect on IFN-β production by blocking the dimerization and nuclear translocation of IRF3, as well as promoting the K48-linked polyubiquitination and degradation of both IKKi and IRF3. This study may be helpful for fully understanding the pathogenesis of HSV-1.

Abstract
The nuclear lamina is the main component of the nuclear cytoskeleton that maintains the integrity of the nucleus. However, it represents a natural barrier for viruses replicating in the cell nucleus. The lamina blocks viruses from being trafficked to the nucleus for replication, but it also impedes the nuclear egress of the progeny of viral particles. Thus, viruses have evolved mechanisms to overcome this obstacle. Large viruses induce the assembly of multiprotein complexes that are anchored to the inner nuclear membrane. Important components of these complexes are the viral and cellular kinases phosphorylating the lamina and promoting its disaggregation, therefore allowing virus egress. Small viruses also use cellular kinases to induce lamina phosphorylation and the subsequent disruption in order to facilitate the import of viral particles during the early stages of infection or during their nuclear egress. Another component of the nuclear cytoskeleton, nuclear actin, is exploited by viruses for the intranuclear movement of their particles from the replication sites to the nuclear periphery. This study focuses on exploitation of the nuclear cytoskeleton by viruses, although this is just the beginning for many viruses, and promises to reveal the mechanisms and dynamic of physiological and pathological processes in the nucleus.

Abstract
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection relies on immediate early proteins that initiate viral replication. Among them, ICP0 is known, for many years, to facilitate the onset of viral gene expression and reactivation from latency. However, how ICP0 itself is regulated remains elusive. Through genetic analyses, we identify that the viral γ134.5 protein, an HSV virulence factor, interacts with and prevents ICP0 from proteasomal degradation. Furthermore, we show that the host E3 ligase TRIM23, recently shown to restrict the replication of HSV-1 (and certain other viruses) by inducing autophagy, triggers the proteasomal degradation of ICP0 via K11- and K48-linked ubiquitination. Functional analyses reveal that the γ134.5 protein binds to and inactivates TRIM23 through blockade of K27-linked TRIM23 autoubiquitination. Deletion of γ134.5 or ICP0 in a recombinant HSV-1 impairs viral replication, whereas ablation of TRIM23 markedly rescues viral growth. Herein, we show that TRIM23, apart from its role in autophagy-mediated HSV-1 restriction, down-regulates ICP0, whereas viral γ134.5 functions to disable TRIM23. Together, these results demonstrate that posttranslational regulation of ICP0 by virus and host factors determines the outcome of HSV-1 infection.

Abstract
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) and varicella-zoster virus (VZV) are both members of the alphaherpesvirus subfamily but belong to different genera. Substitution of the HSV-1 UL34 coding sequence with that of its VZV homolog, open reading frame 24 (ORF24), results in a virus that has defects in viral growth, spread, capsid egress, and nuclear lamina disruption very similar to those seen in a UL34-null virus despite normal interaction between ORF24 protein and HSV pUL31 and proper localization of the nuclear egress complex at the nuclear envelope. Minimal selection for growth in cell culture resulted in viruses that grew and spread much more efficiently that the parental chimeric virus. These viruses varied in their ability to support nuclear lamina disruption, normal nuclear egress complex localization, and capsid de-envelopment. Single mutations that suppress the growth defect were mapped to the coding sequences of ORF24, ICP22, and ICP4, and one virus carried single mutations in each of the ICP22 and US3 coding sequences. The phenotypes of these viruses support a role for ICP22 in nuclear lamina disruption and a completely unexpected role for the major transcriptional regulator, ICP4, in capsid nuclear egress. IMPORTANCE Interactions among virus proteins are critical for assembly and egress of virus particles, and such interactions are attractive targets for antiviral therapy. Identification of critical functional interactions can be slow and tedious. Capsid nuclear egress of herpesviruses is a critical event in the assembly and egress pathway and is mediated by two proteins, pUL31 and pUL34, that are conserved among herpesviruses. Here, we describe a cell culture evolution approach to identify other viral gene products that functionally interact with pUL34.

Abstract
Two of the most prevalent human viruses worldwide, herpes simplex virus type 1 and type 2 (HSV-1 and HSV-2, respectively), cause a variety of diseases, including cold sores, genital herpes, herpes stromal keratitis, meningitis and encephalitis. The intrinsic, innate and adaptive immune responses are key to control HSV, and the virus has developed mechanisms to evade them. The immune response can also contribute to pathogenesis, as observed in stromal keratitis and encephalitis. The fact that certain individuals are more prone than others to suffer severe disease upon HSV infection can be partially explained by the existence of genetic polymorphisms in humans. Like all herpesviruses, HSV has two replication cycles: lytic and latent. During lytic replication HSV produces infectious viral particles to infect other cells and organisms, while during latency there is limited gene expression and lack of infectious virus particles. HSV establishes latency in neurons and can cause disease both during primary infection and upon reactivation. The mechanisms leading to latency and reactivation and which are the viral and host factors controlling these processes are not completely understood. Here we review the HSV life cycle, the interaction of HSV with the immune system and three of the best-studied pathologies: Herpes stromal keratitis, herpes simplex encephalitis and genital herpes. We also discuss the potential association between HSV-1 infection and Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
Nuclear envelope budding in herpesvirus nuclear egress may be negatively regulated, since the pUL31/pUL34 nuclear egress complex heterodimer can induce membrane budding without capsids when expressed ectopically or on artificial membranes in vitro, but not in the infected cell. We have previously described a pUL34 mutant that contained alanine substitutions at R158 and R161 and that showed impaired growth, impaired pUL31/pUL34 interaction, and unregulated budding. Here, we determine the phenotypic contributions of the individual substitutions to these phenotypes. Neither substitution alone was able to reproduce the impaired growth or nuclear egress complex (NEC) interaction phenotypes. Either substitution, however, could fully reproduce the unregulated budding phenotype, suggesting that misregulated budding may not substantially impair virus replication. In addition, the R158A substitution caused relocalization of the NEC to intranuclear punctate structures and recruited lamin A/C to these structures, suggesting that this residue might be important for recruitment of kinases for dispersal of nuclear lamins. IMPORTANCE Herpesvirus nuclear egress is a complex, regulated process coordinated by two virus proteins that are conserved among the herpesviruses that form a heterodimeric nuclear egress complex (NEC). The NEC drives budding of capsids at the inner nuclear membrane and recruits other viral and host cell proteins for disruption of the nuclear lamina, membrane scission, and fusion. The structural basis of individual activities of the NEC, apart from membrane budding, are not clear, nor is the basis of the regulation of membrane budding. Here, we explore the properties of NEC mutants that have an unregulated budding phenotype, determine the significance of that regulation for virus replication, and also characterize a structural requirement for nuclear lamina disruption.

Abstract
Oncolytic herpes simplex virus (oHSV) is a therapeutic modality that has seen substantial success for the treatment of cancer, though much remains to be improved. Commonly attenuated through the deletion or alteration of the γ134.5 neurovirulence gene, the basis for the success of oHSV relies in part on the malignant silencing of cellular pathways critical for limiting these viruses in healthy host tissue. However, only recently have the molecular mechanisms underlying the success of these treatments begun to emerge. Further clarification of these mechanisms can strengthen rational design approaches to develop the next generation of oHSV. Herein, we review our current understanding of the molecular basis for tumor susceptibility to γ134.5-attenuated oHSV, with particular focus on the malignant suppression of nucleic acid sensing, along with strategies meant to improve the clinical efficacy of these therapeutic viruses.

Mechanism of Nuclear Lamina Disruption and the Role of pUS3 in HSV-1 Nuclear Egress. J Virol 2021; 95:JVI.02432-20.

Abstract
Herpes simplex virus capsid envelopment at the nuclear membrane is coordinated by nuclear egress complex (NEC) proteins, pUL34 and pUL31, and is accompanied by alteration in the nuclear architecture and local disruption of nuclear lamina. Here, we examined the role of capsid envelopment in the changes of the nuclear architecture by characterizing HSV-1 recombinants that do not form capsids. Typical changes in nuclear architecture and disruption of the lamina were observed in the absence of capsids, suggesting that disruption of the nuclear lamina occurs prior to capsid envelopment. Surprisingly, in the absence of capsid envelopment, lamin A/C becomes concentrated at the nuclear envelope in a pUL34-independent and cell type-specific manner, suggesting that ongoing nuclear egress may be required for the dispersal of lamins observed in wild-type infection. Mutation of virus-encoded protein kinase, pUS3, on a wild-type virus background has been shown to cause accumulation of perinuclear enveloped capsids, formation of NEC aggregates, and exacerbated lamina disruption. We observed that mutation of US3 in the absence of capsids results in identical NEC aggregation and lamina disruption phenotypes, suggesting that they do not result from accumulation of perinuclear virions. TEM analysis revealed that, in the absence of capsids, NEC aggregates correspond to multi-folded nuclear membrane structures, suggesting that pUS3 may control NEC self-association and membrane deformation. To determine the significance of the pUS3 nuclear egress function for virus growth, the replication of single and double UL34 and US3 mutants was measured, showing that the significance of pUS3 nuclear egress function is cell-type specific.ImportanceThe nuclear lamina is an important player in infection by viruses that replicate in the nucleus. Herpesviruses alter the structure of the nuclear lamina to facilitate transport of capsids from the nucleus to the cytoplasm and use both viral and cellular effectors to disrupt the protein-protein interactions that maintain the lamina. Here we explore the role of capsid envelopment and the virus-encoded protein kinase, pUS3, in the disruption of lamina structure. We show that capsid envelopment is not necessary for the lamina disruption, or for US3 mutant phenotypes, including exaggerated lamina disruption, that accompany nuclear egress. These results clarify the mechanisms behind alteration of nuclear lamina structure and support a function for pUS3 in regulating the aggregation state of the nuclear egress machinery.

Abstract
Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) replicates its genome and packages it into capsids within the nucleus. HSV-1 has evolved a complex mechanism of nuclear egress whereby nascent capsids bud on the inner nuclear membrane to form perinuclear virions that subsequently fuse with the outer nuclear membrane, releasing capsids into the cytosol. The viral-encoded nuclear egress complex (NEC) plays a crucial role in this vesicle-mediated nucleocytoplasmic transport. Nevertheless, similar system mediates the movement of other cellular macromolecular complexes in normal cells. Therefore, HSV-1 may utilize viral proteins to hijack the cellular machinery in order to facilitate capsid transport. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms underlying this phenomenon. This review summarizes our current understanding of the cellular and viral factors involved in the nuclear egress of HSV-1 capsids.

Abstract
RIG-I and MDA5 are cytoplasmic RNA sensors that mediate cell intrinsic immunity against viral pathogens. While it has been well-established that RIG-I and MDA5 recognize RNA viruses, their interactive network with DNA viruses, including herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1), remains less clear. Using a combination of RNA-deep sequencing and genetic studies, we show that the γ134.5 gene product, a virus-encoded virulence factor, enables HSV growth by neutralization of RIG-I dependent restriction. When expressed in mammalian cells, HSV-1 γ134.5 targets RIG-I, which cripples cytosolic RNA sensing and subsequently suppresses antiviral gene expression. Rather than inhibition of RIG-I K63-linked ubiquitination, the γ134.5 protein precludes the assembly of RIG-I and cellular chaperone 14-3-3ε into an active complex for mitochondrial translocation. The γ134.5-mediated inhibition of RIG-I-14-3-3ε binding abrogates the access of RIG-I to mitochondrial antiviral-signaling protein (MAVS) and activation of interferon regulatory factor 3. As such, unlike wild type virus HSV-1, a recombinant HSV-1 in which γ134.5 is deleted elicits efficient cytokine induction and replicates poorly, while genetic ablation of RIG-I expression, but not of MDA5 expression, rescues viral growth. Collectively, these findings suggest that viral suppression of cytosolic RNA sensing is a key determinant in the evolutionary arms race of a large DNA virus and its host.

Abstract
Intracellular organelles enwrapped in membranes along with a complex network of vesicles trafficking in, out and inside the cellular environment are one of the main features of eukaryotic cells. Given their central role in cell life, compartmentalization and mechanisms allowing their maintenance despite continuous crosstalk among different organelles have been deeply investigated over the past years. Here, we review the multiple functions exerted by the endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) machinery in driving membrane remodeling and fission, as well as in repairing physiological and pathological membrane damages. In this way, ESCRT machinery enables different fundamental cellular processes, such as cell cytokinesis, biogenesis of organelles and vesicles, maintenance of nuclear–cytoplasmic compartmentalization, endolysosomal activity. Furthermore, we discuss some examples of how viruses, as obligate intracellular parasites, have evolved to hijack the ESCRT machinery or part of it to execute/optimize their replication cycle/infection. A special emphasis is given to the herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) interaction with the ESCRT proteins, considering the peculiarities of this interplay and the need for HSV-1 to cross both the nuclear-cytoplasmic and the cytoplasmic-extracellular environment compartmentalization to egress from infected cells.

Abstract
The envelope glycoprotein M (gM), a surface virion component conserved among alphaherpesviruses, is a multiple-transmembrane domain-containing glycoprotein with a complex N-linked oligosaccharide. The gM mediates a diverse range of functions during the viral life cycle. In this review, we summarize the biological features of gM, including its characterization and function in some specicial alphaherpesviruses. gM modulates the virus-induced membrane fusion during virus invasion, transports other proteins to the appropriate intracellular membranes for primary and secondary envelopment during virion assembly, and promotes egress of the virus. The gM can interact with various viral and cellular components, and the focus of recent research has also been on interactions related to gM. And we will discuss how gM participates in the life cycle of alphaherpesviruses.

Abstract
Viruses are obligatory intracellular parasites. For their efficient replication, many require access to the nuclear interior. Yet, only few viral particles are small enough to passively diffuse through the nuclear pore complexes, calling for alternative strategies to bypass the nuclear envelope barrier. Some viruses will await mitotic nuclear envelope breakdown to gain access, whereas others will exploit more active means, for instance by hijacking nuclear pore transport or by directly targeting constituents of the nuclear envelope so as to remodel and temporarily perturb its integrity. After replication, newly produced viral DNA complexes need to cross the same barrier to exit the nucleus and enter the cytoplasm, where the final stages of virion maturation take place. There are also different flavours to the feat of nuclear egress that vary in delicacy and intensity. In this review, we define the major entry and egress strategies that are exploited by different viruses and describe the molecular details thereof. Ultimately, a deeper understanding of these pathways may help identifying molecular targets for blocking viral reproduction or spreading.

Abstract
The mechanistic evolutionary origin of the eukaryotic cell nucleus remains unknown. Among several plausible hypotheses, the most controversial is that large DNA viruses, such as poxviruses, led to the emergence of the eukaryotic cell nucleus. Several recent findings, including the discovery of a nucleus-like structure in prokaryotic viruses and prokaryotes possessing nucleus-like inner membranes, suggest genomic DNA compartmentalization not only in eukaryotes but also in prokaryotes. The sophisticated viral machinery of mimiviruses is thought to resemble the eukaryotic nucleus: DNA replicates both inside the viral factory and nucleus, which is at least partially surrounded by membranes and is devoid of ribosomes. Furthermore, several features of the recently identified Acanthamoeba castellanii medusavirus suggest that the evolutionary relationship between ancestral viral factory and eukaryotic nucleus. Notably, Ran, DNA polymerase, and histones show molecular fossils of lateral transfer of nuclear genes between the virus and host. These results suggest viral innovation in the emergence of the eukaryotic nucleus. According to these results, a new scenario explaining the origin of the eukaryotic nucleus from the perspective of viral participation is proposed. This new scenario could substantially impact the study of eukaryogenesis and stimulate further discussion about viral contributions to the evolution of the eukaryotic nucleus.

Abstract
The nuclear lamins are the major components of the nuclear lamina in the nuclear envelope. Lamins are involved in numerous functions, including a role in providing structural support to the cell and the mechanosensing of the cell. Mutations in the genes encoding for lamins lead to the rare diseases termed laminopathies. However, not only laminopathies show alterations in the nuclear lamina. Deregulation of lamin expression is reported in multiple cancers and several viral infections lead to a disrupted nuclear lamina. The structural and mechanical effects of alterations in the nuclear lamina can partly explain the phenotypes seen in disease, such as muscular weakness in certain laminopathies and transmigration of cancer cells. However, a lot of answers to questions about the relation between changes in the nuclear lamina and disease development remain elusive. Here, we review the current understandings of the contribution of the nuclear lamina in the structural support and mechanosensing of healthy and diseased cells.

Abstract
During viral replication, herpesviruses utilize a unique strategy, termed nuclear egress, to translocate capsids from the nucleus into the cytoplasm. This initial budding step transfers a newly formed capsid from within the nucleus, too large to fit through nuclear pores, through the inner nuclear membrane to the perinuclear space. The perinuclear enveloped virion must then fuse with the outer nuclear membrane to be released into the cytoplasm for further maturation, undergoing budding once again at the trans-Golgi network or early endosomes, and ultimately exit the cell non-lytically to spread infection. This first budding process is mediated by two conserved viral proteins, UL31 and UL34, that form a heterodimer called the nuclear egress complex (NEC). This review focuses on what we know about how the NEC mediates capsid transport to the perinuclear space, including steps prior to and after this budding event. Additionally, we discuss the involvement of other viral proteins in this process and how NEC-mediated budding may be regulated during infection.

Abstract
In humans, (A549) cells impaired H9N2 virus nuclear export of the ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex contrasted with the early and efficient nuclear export of the H1N1/WSN and pH1N1 virus RNP complexes. Although nuclear export of the RNP complex occurred via the nuclear pore complex, H9N2 virus infection also induced modifications in the nuclear envelope and induced cell cytotoxicity. Reduced PA protein levels in H9N2 virus-infected A549 cells occurred, and this phenomenon was independent of virus infection. Silencing the H1N1/WSN PA protein expression leads to impaired nuclear export of RNP complexes, suggesting that the impaired nuclear export of the H9N2 virus RNP complex may be one of the consequences of reduced PA protein levels. Early and efficient export of the RNP complex occurred in H9N2 virus-infected avian (CEF) cells, although structural changes in the nuclear envelope also occurred. Collectively our data suggest that a combination of delayed nuclear export and virus-induced cell cytotoxicity restricts H9N2 virus transmission in A549 cells. However, the early and efficient export of the RNP complex mitigated the effects of virus-induced cytotoxicity on H9N2 virus transmission in CEF cells. Our findings highlight the multi-factorial nature of host-adaptation of the polymerase proteins of avian influenza viruses in non-avian cell environments.

Abstract
Circoviruses are the smallest DNA viruses known to infect mammalian and avian species. Although circoviruses are known to be associated with a range of clinical diseases, the details of circovirus DNA release still remain unknown. Here, we identified p32 as a key regulator for porcine circoviral nuclear egress. Upon porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) infection, p32 was recruited into the nucleus by the viral capsid (Cap) protein; simultaneously, protein kinase C isoform δ (PKC-δ) was phosphorylated at threonine 505 by phospholipase C (PLC)-mediated signaling at the early stage of infection, which was further amplified by Jun N-terminal protein kinase (JNK) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling at the late infection phase. p32 functioned as an adaptor to recruit phosphorylated PKC-δ and Cap to the nuclear membrane to phosphorylate lamin A/C, resulting in a rearrangement of nuclear lamina and thus facilitating viral nuclear egress. Consistent with these findings, knockout (KO) of p32 in PCV2-infected cells markedly reduced the phosphorylation of PKC-δ and impeded the recruitment of p-PKC-δ and Cap to the nuclear membrane, hence abolishing the phosphorylation of lamin A/C and the rearrangement of nuclear lamina. As a result, p32 depletion profoundly impaired the production of cell-free viruses during PCV2 infection. We further identified the N-terminal 24RRR26 of Cap to be crucial for binding to p32, and mutation of these three arginine residues significantly weakened the replication and pathogenesis of PCV2 in vivo In summary, our findings highlight a critical role of p32 in the activation and recruitment of PKC-δ to phosphorylate lamin A/C and facilitate porcine circoviral nuclear egress, and they certainly help understanding of the mechanism of PCV2 replication.IMPORTANCE Circovirus infections are highly prevalent in mammalian and avian species. Circoviral capsid protein is the only structural protein of the virion that plays an essential role in viral assembly. However, the machinery of circovirus nuclear egress is currently unknown. In this work, we identified p32 as a key regulator of porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) nuclear egress that forms a complex with the viral capsid (Cap) protein to enhance protein kinase C isoform δ (PKC-δ) activity; this resulted in a recruitment of phosphorylated PKC-δ to the nuclear membrane, which further phosphorylates lamin A/C to promote the rearrangement of nuclear lamina and facilitate viral nuclear egress. Notably, we found that the N-terminal 24RRR26 of Cap, a highly conserved motif among circovirus species, was required for interacting with p32, and that mutation of this motif markedly impeded PCV2 nuclear egress. These data indicate that p32 is a critical regulator of PCV2 nuclear egress and reveal the importance of this finding in circovirus replication.

Roles of the Interhexamer Contact Site for Hexagonal Lattice Formation of the Herpes Simplex Virus 1 Nuclear Egress Complex in Viral Primary Envelopment and Replication. J Virol 2019; 93:JVI.00498-19. [PMID: 31043535 DOI: 10.1128/jvi.00498-19] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2019] [Accepted: 04/29/2019] [Indexed: 01/15/2023] Open
Abstract
During the nuclear export of nascent nucleocapsids of herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1), the nucleocapsids acquire a primary envelope by budding through the inner nuclear membrane into the perinuclear space between the inner and outer nuclear membranes. This unique budding process, termed primary envelopment, is initiated by the nuclear egress complex (NEC), composed of the HSV-1 UL31 and UL34 proteins. Earlier biochemical approaches have shown that the NEC has an intrinsic ability to vesiculate membranes through the formation of a hexagonal lattice structure. The significance of intrahexamer interactions of the NEC in the primary envelopment of HSV-1-infected cells has been reported. In contrast, the contribution of lattice formation of the NEC hexamer to primary envelopment in HSV-1-infected cells remains to be elucidated. Therefore, we constructed and characterized a recombinant HSV-1 strain carrying an amino acid substitution in a UL31 residue that is an interhexamer contact site for the lattice formation of the NEC hexamer. This mutation was reported to destabilize the interhexamer interactions of the HSV-1 NEC. Here, we demonstrate that the mutation causes the aberrant accumulation of nucleocapsids in the nucleus and reduces viral replication in Vero and HeLa cells. Thus, the ability of HSV-1 to form the hexagonal lattice structure of the NEC was linked to an increase in primary envelopment and viral replication. Our results suggest that the lattice formation of the NEC hexamer has an important role in HSV-1 replication by regulating primary envelopment.IMPORTANCE The scaffolding proteins of several envelope viruses required for virion assembly form high-order lattice structures. However, information on the significance of their lattice formation in infected cells is limited. Herpesviruses acquire envelopes twice during their viral replication. The first envelop acquisition (primary envelopment) is one of the steps in the vesicle-mediated nucleocytoplasmic transport of nascent nucleocapsids, which is unique in biology. HSV-1 NEC, thought to be conserved in all members of the Herpesviridae family, is critical for primary envelopment and was shown to form a hexagonal lattice structure. Here, we investigated the significance of the interhexamer contact site for hexagonal lattice formation of the NEC in HSV-1-infected cells and present evidence suggesting that the lattice formation of the NEC hexamer has an important role in HSV-1 replication by regulating primary envelopment. Our results provide insights into the mechanisms of the envelopment of herpesviruses and other envelope viruses.

Abstract
Oncolytic herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1), devoid of the γ134.5 gene, exerts antitumor activities. However, the oncolytic effects differ, ranging from pronounced to little responses. Although viral and host factors are involved, much remains to be deciphered. Here we report that engineered HSV-1 ΔN146, bearing amino acids 147 to 263 of γ134.5, replicates competently in and lyses malignant cells refractory to the γ134.5 null mutant. Upon infection, ΔN146 precludes phosphorylation of translation initiation factor eIF2α (α subunit of eukaryotic initiation factor 2), ensuring viral protein synthesis. On the other hand, ΔN146 activates interferon (IFN) regulatory factor 3 (IRF3) and IFN expression, known to prime immunity against virus and tumor. Nevertheless, ΔN146 exhibits sustained replication even exposed to exogenous IFN-α. In a 4T1 tumor model, ΔN146 markedly reduces tumor growth and metastasis formation. This coincides with viral replication or T cell infiltration in primary tumors. ΔN146 is undetectable in normal tissues in vivo Targeted HSV-1 editing results in a unique antineoplastic agent that enables inflammation without major interference of viral growth within tumor cells.IMPORTANCE Oncolytic herpes simplex virus 1 is a promising agent for cancer immunotherapy. Due to a complex virus-host interaction, less is clear about what viral signature(s) constitutes a potent oncolytic backbone. Through molecular or genetic dissection, we showed that selective editing of the γ134.5 gene enables viral replication in malignant cells, activation of transcription factor IRF3, and subsequent induction of type I IFN. This translates into profoundly reduced primary tumor growth and metastasis burden in an aggressive breast carcinoma model in vivo Our work reveals a distinct oncolytic platform that is amendable for further development.

Abstract
Turan and Grosche et al. show that herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) infection leads to autophagic degradation of nuclear lamins in immature dendritic cells, facilitating HSV-1 nuclear egress and the formation of infectious progeny virus. In mature dendritic cells, autophagy is inhibited due to elevated KIF1B and KIF2A protein levels. Dendritic cells (DCs) are crucial for the induction of potent antiviral immune responses. In contrast to immature DCs (iDCs), mature DCs (mDCs) are not permissive for infection with herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1). Here, we demonstrate that HSV-1 infection of iDCs and mDCs induces autophagy, which promotes the degradation of lamin A/C, B1, and B2 in iDCs only. This in turn facilitates the nuclear egress of progeny viral capsids and thus the formation of new infectious particles. In contrast, lamin protein levels remain stable in HSV-1–infected mDCs due to an inefficient autophagic flux. Elevated protein levels of KIF1B and KIF2A in mDCs inhibited lamin degradation, likely by hampering autophagosome–lysosome fusion. Therefore, in mDCs, fewer progeny capsids were released from the nuclei into the cytosol, and fewer infectious virions were assembled. We hypothesize that inhibition of autophagic lamin degradation in mDCs represents a very powerful cellular counterstrike to inhibit the production of progeny virus and thus viral spread.

Herpes Simplex Virus 1 γ 134.5 Protein Inhibits STING Activation That Restricts Viral Replication. J Virol 2018; 92:JVI.01015-18. [PMID: 30045990 DOI: 10.1128/jvi.01015-18] [Citation(s) in RCA: 52] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2018] [Accepted: 07/19/2018] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
The γ134.5 gene of herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) encodes a virulence factor that promotes viral pathogenesis. Although it perturbs TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1) in the complex network of innate immune pathways, the underlying mechanism is obscure. Here we report that HSV-1 γ134.5 targets stimulator of interferon genes (STING) in the intracellular DNA recognition pathway that regulates TBK1 activation. In virus-infected cells the γ134.5 protein associates with and inactivates STING, which leads to downregulation of interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3) and IFN responses. Importantly, HSV-1 γ134.5 disrupts translocation of STING from the endoplasmic reticulum to Golgi apparatus, a process necessary to prime cellular immunity. Deletion of γ134.5 or its amino-terminal domain from HSV-1 abolishes the observed inhibitory activities. Consistently, an HSV mutant that lacks functional γ134.5 replicated less efficiently in STING+/+ than in STING-/- mouse embryonic fibroblasts. Moreover, reconstituted expression of human STING in the STING-/- cells activated IRF3 and reduced viral growth. These results suggest that control of the DNA sensing pathway by γ134.5 is advantageous to HSV infection.IMPORTANCE Viral inhibition of innate immunity contributes to herpes simplex virus pathogenesis. Although this complex process involves multiple factors, the underlying events remain unclear. We demonstrate that an HSV virulence factor γ134.5 precludes the activation of STING, a central adaptor in the intracellular DNA sensing pathway. Upon HSV infection, this viral protein engages with and inactivates STING. Consequently, it compromises host immunity and facilitates HSV replication. These observations uncover an HSV mechanism that is likely to mediate viral virulence.

Abstract
Many viruses, enveloped or non-enveloped, remodel host membrane structures for their replication, assembly and escape from host cells. Herpesviruses are important human pathogens and cause many diseases. As large enveloped DNA viruses, herpesviruses undergo several complex steps to complete their life cycles and produce infectious progenies. Firstly, herpesvirus assembly initiates in the nucleus, producing nucleocapsids that are too large to cross through the nuclear pores. Nascent nucleocapsids instead bud at the inner nuclear membrane to form primary enveloped virions in the perinuclear space followed by fusion of the primary envelopes with the outer nuclear membrane, to translocate the nucleocapsids into the cytoplasm. Secondly, nucleocapsids obtain a series of tegument proteins in the cytoplasm and bud into vesicles derived from host organelles to acquire viral envelopes. The vesicles are then transported to and fuse with the plasma membrane to release the mature virions to the extracellular space. Therefore, at least two budding and fusion events take place at cellular membrane structures during herpesviruses assembly and egress, which induce membrane deformations. In this review, we describe and discuss how herpesviruses exploit and remodel host membrane structures to assemble and escape from the host cell.

Abstract
Vesicle-mediated nucleocytoplasmic transport is a nuclear pore-independent mechanism for the nuclear export of macromolecular complexes, but the molecular basis for this transport remains largely unknown. Here we show that endosomal sorting complex required for transport-III (ESCRT-III) is recruited to the inner nuclear membrane (INM) during the nuclear export of herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1). Scission during HSV-1 budding through the INM is prevented by depletion of ESCRT-III proteins. Interestingly, in uninfected human cells, the depletion of ESCRT-III proteins induces aberrant INM proliferation. Our results show that HSV-1 expropriates the ESCRT-III machinery in infected cells for scission of the INM to produce vesicles containing progeny virus nucleocapsids. In uninfected cells, ESCRT-III regulates INM integrity by downregulating excess INM. The endosomal sorting complex required for transport-III (ESCRT-III) has been implicated in the packaging of HIV and HSV-1 viruses in the cytoplasm. Here the authors show that ESCRT-III proteins are required for the transport of HSV-1 nucleocapsids from nucleoplasm to cytosol through the nuclear envelope and confirm that the same mechanism is also used for the nucleocytoplasmic transport of RNP in Drosophila cells.

Abstract
Herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1) causes lifelong recurrent pathologies without a cure. How infection by HSV-1 triggers disease processes, especially in the immune-privileged avascular human cornea, remains a major unresolved puzzle. It has been speculated that a cornea-resident molecule must tip the balance in favor of pro-inflammatory and pro-angiogenic conditions observed with herpetic, as well as non-herpetic, ailments of the cornea. Here, we demonstrate that heparanase (HPSE), a host enzyme, is the molecular trigger for multiple pathologies associated with HSV-1 infection. In human corneal epithelial cells, HSV-1 infection upregulates HPSE in a manner dependent on HSV-1 infected cell protein 34.5. HPSE then relocates to the nucleus to regulate cytokine production, inhibits wound closure, enhances viral spread, and thus generates a toxic local environment. Overall, our findings implicate activated HPSE as a driver of viral pathogenesis and call for further attention to this host protein in infection and other inflammatory disorders.

Abstract
Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is a neuroinvasive human pathogen that has the ability to infect and replicate within epithelial cells and neurons and establish a life-long latent infection in sensory neurons. HSV-1 depends on the host cellular cytoskeleton for entry, replication, and exit. Therefore, HSV-1 has adapted mechanisms to promote its survival by exploiting the microtubule and actin cytoskeletons to direct its active transport, infection, and spread between neurons and epithelial cells during primary and recurrent infections. This review will focus on the currently known mechanisms utilized by HSV-1 to harness the neuronal cytoskeleton, molecular motors, and the secretory and exocytic pathways for efficient virus entry, axonal transport, replication, assembly, and exit from the distinct functional compartments (cell body and axon) of the highly polarized sensory neurons.

Abstract
Actin filaments, microtubules and intermediate filaments form the cytoskeleton of vertebrate cells. Involved in maintaining cell integrity and structure, facilitating cargo and vesicle transport, remodelling surface structures and motility, the cytoskeleton is necessary for the successful life of a cell. Because of the broad range of functions these filaments are involved in, they are common targets for viral pathogens, including the alphaherpesviruses. Human-tropic alphaherpesviruses are prevalent pathogens carried by more than half of the world’s population; comprising herpes simplex virus (types 1 and 2) and varicella-zoster virus, these viruses are characterised by their ability to establish latency in sensory neurons. This review will discuss the known mechanisms involved in subversion of and transport via the cytoskeleton during alphaherpesvirus infections, focusing on protein-protein interactions and pathways that have recently been identified. Studies on related alphaherpesviruses whose primary host is not human, along with comparisons to more distantly related beta and gammaherpesviruses, are also presented in this review. The need to decipher as-yet-unknown mechanisms exploited by viruses to hijack cytoskeletal components—to reveal the hidden cytoskeletons in the closet—will also be addressed.

Abstract
Recent observations in laminopathy patient cells and cancer cells have revealed that the nuclear envelope (NE) can transiently rupture during interphase. NE rupture leads to an uncoordinated exchange of nuclear and cytoplasmic material, thereby deregulating cellular homeostasis. Moreover, concurrently inflicted DNA damage could prime rupture-prone cells for genome instability. Thus, NE rupture may represent a novel pathogenic mechanism that has far-reaching consequences for cell and organism physiology.

Role of Herpes Simplex Virus 1 γ34.5 in the Regulation of IRF3 Signaling. J Virol 2017; 91:JVI.01156-17.

Abstract
During viral infection, pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) and their associated adaptors recruit TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1) to activate interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3), resulting in production of type I interferons (IFNs). ICP0 and ICP34.5 are among the proteins encoded by herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) that modulate type I IFN signaling. We constructed a recombinant virus (ΔXX) that lacks amino acids 87 to 106, a portion of the previously described TBK1-binding domain of the γ34.5 gene (D. Verpooten, Y. Ma, S. Hou, Z. Yan, and B. He, J Biol Chem 284:1097-1105, 2009, https://doi.org/10.1074/JBC.M805905200). These 20 residues are outside the γ34.5 beclin1-binding domain (BBD) that interacts with beclin1 and regulates autophagy. Unexpectedly, ΔXX showed no deficit in replication in vivo in a variety of tissues and showed virulence comparable to that of wild-type and marker-rescued viruses following intracerebral infection. ΔXX was fully capable of mediating the dephosphorylation of eIF2α, and the virus was capable of controlling the phosphorylation of IRF3. In contrast, a null mutant in γ34.5 failed to control IRF3 phosphorylation due to an inability of the mutant to sustain expression of ICP0. Our data show that while γ34.5 regulates IRF3 phosphorylation, the TBK1-binding domain itself has no impact on IRF3 phosphorylation or on replication and pathogenesis in mice.IMPORTANCE Interferons (IFNs) are potent activators of a variety of host responses that serve to control virus infections. The Herpesviridae have evolved countermeasures to IFN responses. Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) encodes the multifunctional neurovirulence protein ICP34.5. In this study, we investigated the biological relevance of the interaction between ICP34.5 and TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1), an activator of IFN responses. Here, we establish that although ICP34.5 binds TBK1 under certain conditions through a TBK1-binding domain (TBD), there was no direct impact of the TBD on viral replication or virulence in mice. Furthermore, we showed that activation of IRF3, a substrate of TBK1, was independent of the TBD. Instead, we provided evidence that the ability of ICP34.5 to control IRF3 activation is through its ability to reverse translational shutoff and sustain the expression of other IFN inhibitors encoded by the virus. This work provides new insights into the immunomodulatory functions of ICP34.5.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nuclear replication represents a common hallmark of herpesviruses achieved by a number of sequentially unrolled regulatory processes. A rate-limiting step is provided by nucleo-cytoplasmic capsid export, for which a defined multiregulatory protein complex, namely, the nuclear egress complex (NEC), is assembled comprising both viral and cellular components. The NEC regulates at least 3 aspects of herpesviral nuclear replication: (1) multimeric recruitment of NEC-associated effector proteins, (2) reorganization of the nuclear lamina and membranes, and (3) the docking to nuclear capsids. Here, we review published data and own experimental work that characterizes the NEC of HCMV and other herpesviruses. METHODS A systematic review of information on nuclear egress of HCMV compared to selected alpha-, beta-, and gamma-herpesviruses: proteomics-based approaches, high-resolution imaging techniques, and functional investigations. RESULTS A large number of reports on herpesviral NECs have been published during the last two decades, focusing on protein-protein interactions, nuclear localization, regulatory phosphorylation, and functional validation. The emerging picture provides an illustrated example of well-balanced and sophisticated protein networking in virus-host interaction. CONCLUSIONS Current evidence refined the view about herpesviral NECs. Datasets published for HCMV, murine CMV, herpes simplex virus, and Epstein-Barr virus illustrate the marked functional consistency in the way herpesviruses achieve nuclear egress. However, this compares with only limited sequence conservation of core NEC proteins and a structural conservation restricted to individual domains. The translational use of this information might help to define a novel antiviral strategy on the basis of NEC-directed small molecules.

Abstract
Herpes simplex virus (HSV-1) lytic infection results in global changes to the host cell proteome and the proteins associated with host chromatin. We present a system level characterization of proteome dynamics during infection by performing a multi-dimensional analysis during HSV-1 lytic infection of human foreskin fibroblast (HFF) cells. Our study includes identification and quantification of the host and viral proteomes, phosphoproteomes, chromatin bound proteomes and post-translational modifications (PTMs) on cellular histones during infection. We analyzed proteomes across six time points of virus infection (0, 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15 h post-infection) and clustered trends in abundance using fuzzy c-means. Globally, we accurately quantified more than 4000 proteins, 200 differently modified histone peptides and 9000 phosphorylation sites on cellular proteins. In addition, we identified 67 viral proteins and quantified 571 phosphorylation events (465 with high confidence site localization) on viral proteins, which is currently the most comprehensive map of HSV-1 phosphoproteome. We investigated chromatin bound proteins by proteomic analysis of the high-salt chromatin fraction and identified 510 proteins that were significantly different in abundance during infection. We found 53 histone marks significantly regulated during virus infection, including a steady increase of histone H3 acetylation (H3K9ac and H3K14ac). Our data provide a resource of unprecedented depth for human and viral proteome dynamics during infection. Collectively, our results indicate that the proteome composition of the chromatin of HFF cells is highly affected during HSV-1 infection, and that phosphorylation events are abundant on viral proteins. We propose that our epi-proteomics approach will prove to be important in the characterization of other model infectious systems that involve changes to chromatin composition.

Abstract
Herpesviruses assemble and package their genomes into capsids in the nucleus, but complete final assembly of the mature virion in the cell cytoplasm. This requires passage of the genome-containing capsid across the double-membrane nuclear envelope. Herpesviruses have evolved a mechanism that relies on a pair of conserved viral gene products to shuttle the capsids from the nucleus to the cytoplasm by way of envelopment and de-envelopment at the inner and outer nuclear membranes, respectively. This complex process requires orchestration of the activities of viral and cellular factors to alter the architecture of the nuclear membrane, select capsids at the appropriate stage for egress, and accomplish efficient membrane budding and fusion events. The last few years have seen major advances in our understanding of the membrane budding mechanism and helped clarify the roles of viral and cellular proteins in the other, more mysterious steps. Here, we summarize and place into context this recent research and, hopefully, clarify both the major advances and major gaps in our understanding.
