[PMID: 38289107 PMCID: PMC10878073 DOI: 10.1128/jvi.01900-23] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 12/19/2023] [Indexed: 02/21/2024] Open
Abstract
The endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) is a conserved protein machine mediating membrane remodeling and scission. In the context of viral infection, different components of the ESCRT-III complex, which serve as the core machinery to catalyze membrane fission, are involved in diverse viruses' entry, replication, and/or budding. However, the interplay between ESCRT-III and viral factors in the virus life cycle, especially for that of large enveloped DNA viruses, is largely unknown. Recently, the ESCRT-III components Vps2B, Vps20, Vps24, Snf7, Vps46, and Vps60 were determined for entry and/or egress of the baculovirus Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV). Here, we identified the final three ESCRT-III components Chm7, Ist1, and Vps2A of Spodoptera frugiperda. Overexpression of the dominant-negative forms of these proteins or RNAi downregulation of their transcripts significantly reduced infectious budded viruses (BVs) production of AcMNPV. Quantitative PCR together with confocal and transmission electron microscopy analysis revealed that these proteins were required for internalization and trafficking of BV during entry and egress of nucleocapsids. In infected Sf9 cells, nine ESCRT-III components were distributed on the nuclear envelope and plasma membrane, and except for Chm7, the other components were also localized to the intranuclear ring zone. Y2H and BiFC analysis revealed that 42 out of 64 BV-related proteins including 35 BV structural proteins and 7 non-BV structural proteins interacted with single or multiple ESCRT-III components. By further mapping the interactome of 64 BV-related proteins, we established the interaction networks of ESCRT-III and the viral protein complexes involved in BV entry and egress.IMPORTANCEFrom archaea to eukaryotes, the endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT)-III complex is hijacked by many enveloped and nonenveloped DNA or RNA viruses for efficient replication. However, the mechanism of ESCRT-III recruitment, especially for that of large enveloped DNA viruses, remains elusive. Recently, we found the ESCRT-III components Vps2B, Vps20, Vps24, Snf7, Vps46, and Vps60 are necessary for the entry and/or egress of budded viruses (BVs) of Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus. Here, we demonstrated that the other three ESCRT-III components Chm7, Ist1, and Vps2A play similar roles in BV infection. By determining the subcellular localization of ESCRT-III components in infected cells and mapping the interaction of nine ESCRT-III components and 64 BV-related proteins, we built the interaction networks of ESCRT-III and the viral protein complexes involved in BV entry and egress. These studies provide a fundamental basis for understanding the mechanism of the ESCRT-mediated membrane remodeling for replication of baculoviruses.

Abstract
The endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) machinery plays a significant role in the spread of human viruses. However, our understanding of how the host ESCRT machinery responds to viral infection remains limited. Emerging evidence suggests that the ESCRT machinery can be hijacked by viruses of different families to enhance their replication. Throughout their life cycle, these viruses can interfere with or exploit ESCRT-mediated physiological processes to increase their chances of infecting the host. In contrast, to counteract virus infection, the interferon-stimulated gene 15 (ISG15) or the E3 ISG15-protein ligase (HERC5) system within the infected cells is activated to degrade the ESCRT proteins. Many retroviral and RNA viral proteins have evolved "late (L) domain" motifs, which enable them to recruit host ESCRT subunit proteins to facilitate virus transport, replication, budding, mature, and even endocytosis, Therefore, the L domain motifs and ESCRT subunit proteins could serve as promising drug targets for antiviral therapy. This review investigated the composition and essential functions of the ESCRT, shedding light on the impact of ESCRT subunits and viral L domain motifs on the replication of viruses. Furthermore, the antiviral effects facilitated by the ESCRT machinery have been investigated, aiming to provide valuable insights to guide the development and utilization of antiviral drugs.

Abstract
The endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) is an essential molecular machinery in eukaryotic cells that facilitates the invagination of endosomal membranes, leading to the formation of multivesicular bodies (MVBs). It participates in various cellular processes, including lipid bilayer remodeling, cytoplasmic separation, autophagy, membrane fission and re-modeling, plasma membrane repair, as well as the invasion, budding, and release of certain enveloped viruses. The ESCRT complex consists of five complexes, ESCRT-0 to ESCRT-III and VPS4, along with several accessory proteins. ESCRT-0 to ESCRT-II form soluble complexes that shuttle between the cytoplasm and membranes, mainly responsible for recruiting and transporting membrane proteins and viral particles, as well as recruiting ESCRT-III for membrane neck scission. ESCRT-III, a soluble monomer, directly participates in vesicle scission and release, while VPS4 hydrolyzes ATP to provide energy for ESCRT-III complex disassembly, enabling recycling. Studies have confirmed the hijacking of ESCRT complexes by enveloped viruses to facilitate their entry, replication, and budding. Recent research has focused on the interaction between various components of the ESCRT complex and different viruses. In this review, we discuss how different viruses hijack specific ESCRT regulatory proteins to impact the viral life cycle, aiming to explore commonalities in the interaction between viruses and the ESCRT system.

Abstract
Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) GP64 is the key membrane fusion protein that mediates budded virus (BV) infection. We recently reported that BmNPV GP64's n-region of signal peptide (SP) blocked the SP-cleavage and mediated GP64 localization on the plasma membrane (PM); n-region (SP∆nGP64) absence caused GP64 intracellular localization, however, SP∆nGP64 was still incorporated into virion to generate BVs with lower infectivity. To better understand the biogenesis of the envelope of BmNPV BV, we conducted a label-free ESI mass spectrometry analysis of the envelope of purified BVs harboring PM localized GP64 or intracellular localized SP∆nGP64. The results indicated that 31 viral proteins were identified on the envelope, among which 15 were reported in other viruses. The other 16 proteins were first reported in BmNPV BV, including the BmNPV-specific protein BRO-A and proteins associated with vesicle transportation. Six proteins with significant intensity differences were detected in virions with differential localized GP64, and five specific proteins were identified in virions with GP64. Meanwhile, we identified 81 host proteins on the envelope, and seven lipoproteins were first identified in baculovirus virion; other 74 proteins are involved in the cytoskeleton, DNA-binding, vesicle transport, etc. In the meantime, eight and five specific host proteins were, respectively, identified in GP64 and SP∆nGP64's virions. The two virions shared 68 common host proteins, and 8 proteins were identified on their envelopes with a significant difference. This study provides new insight into the protein composition of BmNPV BV and a clue for further investigation of the budding mechanism of BmNPV.

J Virol 2023; 97:e0004123. [PMID: 36916914 PMCID: PMC10062136 DOI: 10.1128/jvi.00041-23] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2023] [Accepted: 02/16/2023] [Indexed: 03/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Baculovirus budded virus (BV) acquires its envelope and viral membrane fusion proteins from the plasma membrane (PM) of the host cell during the budding process. However, this classical BV egress pathway has been questioned because an intracellularly localized membrane fusion protein, SPΔnGP64 (glycoprotein 64 [GP64] lacking the signal peptide [SP] n region), was assembled into the envelope to generate infective BVs in our recent studies. Here, we identify an additional pathway for Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) BV assembly and release that differs, in part, from the currently accepted model for the egress pathway of baculovirus. Electron microscopy showed that during infection, BmNPV-infected cells contained many newly formed multivesicular body (MVB)-like compartments that included mature virions at 30 h postinfection (p.i.). Immunoelectron microscopy demonstrated that the MVBs contained CD63, an MVB endosome marker, and GP64, a BmNPV fusion glycoprotein. MVB fusion with the PM and the release of mature virions, together with naked nucleocapsids, were observed at the cell surface. Furthermore, MVB egress mediated the translocation of SPΔnGP64 to the PM, which induced cell-cell fusion until 36 h p.i. This BV egress pathway can be partially inhibited by U18666A incubation and RNA interference targeting MVB biogenesis genes. Our findings indicate that BmNPV BVs are enveloped and released through MVBs via the cellular exosomal pathway, which is a subordinate BV egress pathway that produces virions with relatively inferior infectivity. This scenario has significant implications for the elucidation of the BmNPV BV envelopment pathway. IMPORTANCE BmNPV is a severe pathogen that infects mainly Bombyx mori, a domesticated insect of economic importance, and accounts for approximately 15% of economic losses in sericulture. BV production plays a key role in systemic BmNPV infection of larvae. Despite the progress made in the functional gene studies of BmNPV, BmNPV BV egress is ill-understood. This study reports a previously unreported MVB envelopment pathway in BmNPV BV egress. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a baculovirus using dual BV egress pathways. This specific BV egress mechanism explains the cause of the non-PM-localized SPΔnGP64-rescued gp64-null bacmid infectivity, elucidating the reason underlying the retention of SP by BmNPV GP64. The data obtained elucidate an alternate molecular mechanism of baculovirus BV egress.

Abstract
Baculovirus expression vector system (BEVS) is a powerful and versatile platform for recombinant protein production in insect cells. As the most frequently used baculovirus, Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) encodes 155 open reading frames (ORFs), including a considerable number of non-essential genes for the virus replication in cell culture. Studies have shown that protein production in BEVS can be improved by removing some viral dispensable genes, and these AcMNPV vectors also offer the possibility of accommodating larger exogenous gene fragments. In this study, we, respectively, deleted 14 DNA fragments from AcMNPV genome, each of them containing at least two contiguous genes that were known nonessential for viral replication in cell culture or functionally unknown. The effects of these fragment-deletions on virus replication and exogenous protein production were examined. The results showed that 11 of the 14 fragments, containing 43 genes, were dispensable for the virus replication in cultured cells. By detecting the expression of intracellularly expressed and secreted reporter proteins, we demonstrated that nine of the fragment-deletions benefited protein production in Sf9 cells and/or in High Five cells. After combining the deletion of some dispensable fragments, we obtained two AcMNPV vectors shortened by more than 10 kb but displayed an improved capacity for recombinant protein production. The deletion strategies used in this study has the potential to further improve the BEVS.

Abstract
Coiled coils (CCs) are protein structural motifs universally found in proteins and mediate a plethora of biological interactions, and thus their reliable annotation is crucial for studies of protein structure and function. Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) is a large double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) virus and encodes 154 proteins. In this study, genome-wide scans of previously uncharacterized CC motifs throughout AcMNPV was conducted using CC prediction software. In total, 24 CC motifs in 19 CC proteins with high confidence were identified. The characteristic of viral CC motifs were analyzed. The CC proteins could be divided into 12 viral structural proteins and 7 non-structural proteins, including viral membrane fusion proteins, enzymes, and transcription factors. Moreover, CC motifs are conserved in the baculoviral orthologs of 14 of the 19 proteins. It is noted that five CC proteins, including Ac51, Ac66, Exon0, Ac13, and GP16, were previously identified to function in the nuclear egress of nucleocapsids, and Ac66 contains multiple CC motifs, the longest of which comprises 252 amino acids, suggesting a role of CC motifs in this process. Taken together, the CC motifs identified in this study are valuable resource for studying protein function and protein interaction networks during virus replication.

Abstract
The covalent conjugation of ubiquitin family proteins is a widespread post-translational protein modification. In the ubiquitin family, the ATG8 subfamily is exceptional because it is conjugated mainly to phospholipids. However, it remains unknown whether other ubiquitin family proteins are also conjugated to phospholipids. Here, we report that ubiquitin is conjugated to phospholipids, mainly phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), in yeast and mammalian cells. Ubiquitinated PE (Ub-PE) accumulates at endosomes and the vacuole (or lysosomes), and its level increases during starvation. Ub-PE is also found in baculoviruses. In yeast, PE ubiquitination is catalyzed by the canonical ubiquitin system enzymes Uba1 (E1), Ubc4/5 (E2), and Tul1 (E3) and is reversed by Doa4. Liposomes containing Ub-PE recruit the ESCRT components Vps27-Hse1 and Vps23 in vitro. Ubiquitin-like NEDD8 and ISG15 are also conjugated to phospholipids. These findings suggest that the conjugation to membrane phospholipids is not specific to ATG8 but is a general feature of the ubiquitin family.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES AcMNPV is a kind of microbial insecticide that can significantly relieve the resistance of Spodoptera frugiperda to chemical pesticides. TPP is a widely used synergist, which can reduce the use of pesticides by inhibiting carboxylesterase. It is emergently needed to develop a biological control way of Spodoptera frugiperda. RESULTS GP64 mediates low-pH-triggered membrane fusion during entry by endocytosis and participates in AcMNPV particle budding. We explored the synergistic anti-insect activity of AcMNPV-gp64-EGFP and TPP. AcMNPV-gp64-EGFP could increase progeny virus proliferation and accelerate the transcription of 38k and vp39 genes. TPP could inhibit the carboxylesterase activity in the midgut of Spodoptera frugiperda larvae infected with AcMNPV-gp64-EGFP and enhance the virulence of AcMNPV-gp64-EGFP to Spodoptera frugiperda. CONCLUSIONS TPP targeted carboxylesterase inhibition so that AcMNPV-gp64-EGFP could escape the antiviral response in insect hosts. It provided a novel strategy for the prevention of Spodoptera frugiperda.

Abstract
Analysis of orthology is important for understanding protein conservation, function, and phylogenomics. In this study, we performed a comprehensive analysis of gene orthology in the family Ascoviridae based on identification of 366 protein homologue groups and phylogenetic analysis of 34 non-single-copy proteins. Our findings revealed 90 newly annotated proteins, five newly identified core proteins for the family Ascoviridae, and 14 core proteins for the genus Ascovirus. A phylogenomic tree of 11 Ascoviridae members was constructed based on a concatenation of 35 of the 45 ortholog groups. In combination with phosphoproteomic results and conservation estimations, 30 conserved phosphorylation sites on 17 phosphoproteins were identified from a total of 176 phosphosites on 57 phosphoproteins from Heliothis virescens ascovirus 3h (HvAV-3h), providing potential research targets for investigating the role of these protein in the regulation of viral infection. This study will facilitate genome annotation and comparison of further Ascoviridae members as well as functional genomic investigations.

The amino acids of Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus P48 critical for the association with Ac93 are important for the nuclear egress of nucleocapsids and efficient formation of intranuclear microvesicles. Virus Res 2022; 308:198644. [PMID: 34813875 DOI: 10.1016/j.virusres.2021.198644] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/19/2021] [Revised: 11/13/2021] [Accepted: 11/18/2021] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) undergoes a biphasic life cycle with the production of two physically and functionally distinct virions: budded virions (BVs) and occlusion-derived virions (ODVs). Nuclear egress of nucleocapsids and intranuclear microvesicle formation are critical for the morphogenesis of BVs and ODVs, respectively, but the mechanisms and details of these two processes remain unknown. Our previous studies have shown that AcMNPV p48 (ac103) gene is essential for the nuclear egress of nucleocapsids and efficient formation of intranuclear microvesicles, and protein P48 associates with Ac93, which is also involved in the above processes in virion morphogenesis. In this study, we present evidence that alanine substitution for residues N318, V319, C320, R321, and I323 of P48 disrupted the association with Ac93. Moreover, mutation of these residues blocked the nuclear egress of nucleocapsids and efficient formation of intranuclear microvesicles, and subsequent BV formation, as well as ODV envelopment and embedding of ODVs into polyhedra. These results suggested that the association between P48 and Ac93 may be important for both BV and ODV morphogenesis.

Abstract
The endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) system consists of peripheral membrane protein complexes ESCRT-0, -I, -II, -III VPS4-VTA1, and ALIX homodimer. This system plays an important role in the degradation of non-essential or dangerous plasma membrane proteins, the biogenesis of lysosomes and yeast vacuoles, the budding of most enveloped viruses, and promoting membrane shedding of cytokinesis. Recent results show that exosomes and the ESCRT pathway play important roles in virus infection. This review mainly focuses on the roles of exosomes and the ESCRT pathway in virus assembly, budding, and infection of enveloped viruses. The elaboration of the mechanism of exosomes and the ESCRT pathway in some enveloped viruses provides important implications for the further study of the infection mechanism of other enveloped viruses.

Abstract
Despite the important roles of dendritic cells (DCs) in airway allergies, current therapeutic strategies such as drugs, allergen immunotherapy and biologics haven't been targeted at them. In this study, we established a promising DC-based therapeutic approach for the alleviation of allergic rhinitis (AR)-associated allergic reactions, using clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas9-mediated targeted gene disruption. RNA sequencing analysis revealed upregulation of vacuolar protein sorting 37 B (VPS37B) in AR-derived DCs, indicating a novel molecular target. Following antigen presentation, VPS37A and VPS37B enabled endocytosis of the mannose receptor, which recognizes the house dust mite (HDM) allergen Der p 1. DCs with targeted disruption of VPS37A/B alleviated Th2 cytokine production when co-cultured in vitro with allogeneic naïve CD4+ T cell from patients with AR. Furthermore, nasal administration of Vps37a/b-disrupted bone marrow DCs to a mouse model of AR resulted in strongly reduced AR-related symptoms. Thus, this novel modality using genetically engineered DCs can provide an effective therapeutic and preventative strategy for allergic diseases.

Abstract
Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) orf75 (ac75) is a highly conserved gene that is essential for AcMNPV propagation. However, the key domains or residues of the AC75 protein that play a role in viral propagation have not been identified. In this study, sequence alignment revealed that residues Phe-54 and Gln-81 of AC75 were highly conserved among alphabaculoviruses and betabaculoviurses. Thus, Phe-54 and Gln-81 AC75 mutation bacmids were constructed. We found that Gln-81 was not required for viral propagation, whereas mutating Phe-54 reduced budded virus production by 10-fold and impaired occlusion body formation when compared with that of the wild-type AcMNPV. Electron microscopy observations showed that the Phe-54 mutation affected polyhedrin assembly and also occlusion-derived virus embedding, whereas western blot analysis revealed that mutating Phe-54 reduced the amount of AC75 but did not affect the localization of AC75 in infected cells. A protein stability assay showed that the Phe-54 mutation affected AC75 stability. Taken together, Phe-54 was identified as an important residue of AC75, and ac75 is a pivotal gene in budding virus production and occlusion body formation.

Abstract
Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) orf13 (ac13) is a conserved gene in all sequenced alphabaculoviruses. However, its function in the viral life cycle remains unknown. In this study, we found that ac13 was a late gene and that the encoded protein, bearing a putative nuclear localization signal motif, colocalized with the nuclear lamina. Deletion of ac13 did not affect viral genome replication, nucleocapsid assembly or occlusion body (OB) formation, but reduced virion budding from infected cells by approximately 400-fold compared with the wild-type virus. Deletion of ac13 substantially impaired the egress of nucleocapsids from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, while the OB morphogenesis was unaffected. Taken together, our results indicated that ac13 was required for efficient nuclear egress of nucleocapsids during virion budding, but was dispensable for OB formation.

The ESCRT-I Subunit Tsg101 Plays Novel Dual Roles in Entry and Replication of Classical Swine Fever Virus. J Virol 2021; 95:JVI.01928-20.

Abstract
Classical swine fever (CSF), caused by classical swine fever virus (CSFV), is a highly contagious disease of swine with high morbidity and mortality that negatively affects the pig industry worldwide, in particular in China. Soon after the endocytosis of CSFV, the virus makes full use of the components of host cells to complete its life cycle. The endocytosis sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) system is a central molecular machine for membrane protein sorting and scission in eukaryotic cells that plays an essential role in many physiological metabolic processes, including invasion and egress of envelope viruses. However, the molecular mechanism that ESCRT uses to regulate the replication of CSFV is unknown. In this study, we demonstrated that the ESCRT-I complex Tsg101 protein participates in clathrin-mediated endocytosis of CSFV and is also involved in CSFV trafficking. Tsg101 assists the virus in entering the host cell through the late endosome (Rab7 and Rab9) and finally reaching the lysosome (Lamp-1). Interestingly, Tsg101 is also involved in the viral replication process by interacting with nonstructural proteins 4B and 5B of CSFV. Finally, confocal microscopy showed that the replication complex of Tsg101 and double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) or NS4B and NS5B protein was close to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), not the Golgi, in the cytoplasm. Collectively, our finding highlights that Tsg101 regulates the process of CSFV entry and replication, indicating that the ESCRT plays an important role in the life cycle of CSFV. Thus, ESCRT molecules could serve as therapeutic targets to combat CSFV infection.IMPORTANCE CSF, caused by CSFV, is a World Organization for Animal Health (OIE) notifiable disease and causes significant financial losses to the pig industry globally. The ESCRT machinery plays an important regulatory role in several members of the genera Flavivirus and Hepacivirus within the family Flaviviridae, such as hepatitis C virus, Japanese encephalitis virus, and dengue virus. Previous reports have shown that assembling and budding of these viruses require ESCRT. However, the role of ESCRT in Pestivirus infection remains to be elucidated. We determined the molecular mechanisms of the regulation of CSFV infection by the major subunit Tsg101 of ESCRT-I. Interestingly, Tsg101 plays an essential regulatory role in both clathrin-mediated endocytosis and genome replication of CSFV. Overall, the results of this study provide further insights into the molecular function of ESCRT-I complex protein Tsg101 during CSFV infection, which may serve as a molecular target for pestivirus inhibitors.

Abstract
Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV), a member of the Alphabaculovirus genus of the family Baculoviridae, is an enveloped double-stranded DNA virus. Budded virions (BVs) of AcMNPV enter host cells via clathrin-mediated endocytosis. However, the route of functional intracellular trafficking of AcMNPV BVs during entry is not well established. In the current study, we found that entering BVs were colocalized mainly with cellular Rab5 and Rab11. Expression of dominant-negative (DN) Rab5 and Rab11 or RNAi-mediated down regulation of these two cellular transcripts significantly reduced BVs entry into but not egress from Spodoptera frugiperda cells (Sf9), whereas similar treatments for Rab4 and Rab7 had no apparent effect on virus infection. Combined with data from RNAi knockdowns of dynamin, and dynasore inhibition assays, our results support a model in which AcMNPV BVs enter permissive host cells by clathrin-mediated endocytosis, followed by de-envelopment of BVs predominantly within early and maturing endosomes rather than within late endosomes. Additionally, Rab11 suppression studies suggest the Rab11-dependent recycling endosomal pathway is involved in virion entry.

Host AAA+ ATPase TER94 Plays Critical Roles in Building the Baculovirus Viral Replication Factory and Virion Morphogenesis. J Virol 2020; 94:JVI.01674-19.

Abstract
TER94 is a multifunctional AAA+ ATPase crucial for diverse cellular processes, especially protein quality control and chromatin dynamics in eukaryotic organisms. Many viruses, including coronavirus, herpesvirus, and retrovirus, coopt host cellular TER94 for optimal viral invasion and replication. Previous proteomics analysis identified the association of TER94 with the budded virions (BVs) of baculovirus, an enveloped insect large DNA virus. Here, the role of TER94 in the prototypic baculovirus Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) life cycle was investigated. In virus-infected cells, TER94 accumulated in virogenic stroma (VS) at the early stage of infection and subsequently partially rearranged in the ring zone region. In the virions, TER94 was associated with the nucleocapsids of both BV and occlusion-derived virus (ODV). Inhibition of TER94 ATPase activity significantly reduced viral DNA replication and BV production. Electron/immunoelectron microscopy revealed that inhibition of TER94 resulted in the trapping of nucleocapsids within cytoplasmic vacuoles at the nuclear periphery for BV formation and blockage of ODV envelopment at a premature stage within infected nuclei, which appeared highly consistent with its pivotal function in membrane biogenesis. Further analyses showed that TER94 was recruited to the VS or subnuclear structures through interaction with viral early proteins LEF3 and helicase, whereas inhibition of TER94 activity blocked the proper localization of replication-related viral proteins and morphogenesis of VS, providing an explanation for its role in viral DNA replication. Taken together, these data indicated the crucial functions of TER94 at multiple steps of the baculovirus life cycle, including genome replication, BV formation, and ODV morphogenesis.IMPORTANCE TER94 constitutes an important AAA+ ATPase that associates with diverse cellular processes, including protein quality control, membrane fusion of the Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum network, nuclear envelope reformation, and DNA replication. To date, little is known regarding the role(s) of TER94 in the baculovirus life cycle. In this study, TER94 was found to play a crucial role in multiple steps of baculovirus infection, including viral DNA replication and BV and ODV formation. Further evidence showed that the membrane fission/fusion function of TER94 is likely to be exploited by baculovirus for virion morphogenesis. Moreover, TER94 could interact with the viral early proteins LEF3 and helicase to transport and further recruit viral replication-related proteins to establish viral replication factories. This study highlights the critical roles of TER94 as an energy-supplying chaperon in the baculovirus life cycle and enriches our knowledge regarding the biological function of this important host factor.

Abstract
The endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) pathway is required for efficient egress of Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV). In this study, we found that Ac93, a baculovirus core protein, contains a conserved MIM1-like motif. Alanine substitutions for six leucine residues in MIM1-like motif revealed that L142, L145, L146, and L149 are required for association of Ac93 with the MIT domain of Vps4. Mutations of these residues also blocked self-association and the association of Ac93 with ESCRT-III proteins or other viral core proteins Ac76 and Ac103, and resulted in a substantial reduction of infectious virus production, less efficient nuclear egress of progeny nucleocapsids, and the defect of intranuclear microvesicles formation. Combined with the localization of the association of Ac93 with ESCRT-III/Vps4 and other viral proteins at the nuclear membrane, we propose that the coordinated action of these viral proteins and ESCRT-III/Vps4 may be involved in remodeling the nuclear membrane.

Abstract
Our previous study has shown that the Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) p48 (ac103) gene is essential for the nuclear egress of nucleocapsids and the formation of occlusion-derived virions (ODVs). However, the exact role of p48 in the morphogenesis of ODVs remains unknown. In this study, we demonstrated that p48 was required for the efficient formation of intranuclear microvesicles. To further understand its functional role in intranuclear microvesicle formation, we characterized the distribution of the P48 protein, which was found to be associated with the nucleocapsid and envelope fractions of both budded virions and ODVs. In AcMNPV-infected cells, P48 was predominantly localized to nucleocapsids in the virogenic stroma and the nucleocapsids enveloped in ODVs, with a limited but discernible distribution in the plasma membrane, nuclear envelope, intranuclear microvesicles, and ODV envelope. Furthermore, coimmunoprecipitation assays showed that among the viral proteins required for intranuclear microvesicle formation, P48 associated with Ac93 in the absence of viral infection.

The Autographa californica Multiple Nucleopolyhedrovirus ac51 Gene Is Required for Efficient Nuclear Egress of Nucleocapsids and Is Essential for In Vivo Virulence. J Virol 2019; 93:JVI.01923-18.

Abstract
Alphabaculoviruses are lepidopteran-specific nucleopolyhedroviruses that replicate within the nucleus; however, the anterograde transport of the nucleocapsids of these viruses, which is an obligatory step for progeny virion production, is not well understood. In the present study, a unique Alphabaculovirus gene with unknown function, namely, the Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) ac51 gene, was found to be required for efficient nuclear egress of AcMNPV nucleocapsids. Our results indicate that ac51 is a late gene, and Ac51 protein was detectable from 24 to 72 h postinfection using an antibody raised against Ac51. Ac51 is distributed in both the cytoplasm and nuclei of infected cells. Upon ac51 deletion, budded virion (BV) production by 96 h posttransfection was reduced by approximately 1,000-fold compared with that of wild-type AcMNPV. Neither viral DNA synthesis nor viral gene expression was affected. Ac51 was demonstrated to be a nucleocapsid protein of BVs, and ac51 deletion did not interrupt nucleocapsid assembly and occlusion-derived virion (ODV) formation. However, BV production in the supernatants of transfected cells during a viral life cycle was substantially decreased when ac51 was deleted. Further analysis showed that, compared with wild-type AcMNPV, ac51 deletion decreased nucleocapsid egress, while the numbers of nucleocapsids in the nuclei were comparable. Deletion of ac51 also eliminated the virulence of AcMNPV in vivo Taken together, our results support the conclusion that ac51 plays an important role in the nuclear egress of nucleocapsids during BV formation and is essential for the in vivo virulence of AcMNPV.

Abstract
The baculovirus Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) is a model enveloped DNA virus that infects and replicates in lepidopteran insect cells, and can efficiently enter a wide variety of non-host cells. Budded virions of AcMNPV enter cells by endocytosis and traffic to the nucleus where the virus initiates gene expression and genome replication. While trafficking of nucleocapsids by actin propulsion has been studied in detail, other important components of trafficking during entry remain poorly understood. We used a recombinant AcMNPV virus expressing an EGFP reporter in combination with an RNAi screen in Drosophila DL1 cells, to identify host proteins involved in AcMNPV entry. The RNAi screen targeted 86 genes involved in vesicular trafficking, including genes coding for VPS and ESCRT proteins, Rab GTPases, Exocyst proteins, and Clathrin adaptor proteins. We identified 24 genes required for efficient virus entry and reporter expression, and 4 genes that appear to restrict virus entry.

Abstract
Baculoviruses are large DNA viruses of insects that are highly pathogenic in many hosts. In the infection cycle, baculoviruses produce two types of virions. These virion phenotypes are physically and functionally distinct, and each serves a critical role in the biology of the virus. One phenotype, the occlusion-derived virus (ODV), is occluded within a crystallized protein that facilitates oral infection of the host. A large complex of at least nine ODV envelope proteins called per os infectivity factors are critically important for ODV infection of insect midgut epithelial cells. Viral egress from midgut cells is by budding to produce a second virus phenotype, the budded virus (BV). BV binds, enters, and replicates in most other tissues of the host insect. Cell recognition and entry by BV are mediated by a single major envelope glycoprotein: GP64 in some baculoviruses and F in others. Entry and egress by the two virion phenotypes occur by dramatically different mechanisms and reflect a life cycle in which ODV is specifically adapted for oral infection while BV mediates dissemination of the infection within the animal.

Abstract
Viruses that replicate in the host cell nucleus face challenges in usurping cellular pathways to enable passage through the nuclear envelope [1]. Baculoviruses are enveloped, double-stranded DNA viruses that infect lepidopteran insects and are tools for protein expression, cell transduction, and pest management [2-4]. The type species Autographa californica M nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) shares with other pathogens an ability to assemble host actin monomers (G-actin) into actin filaments (F-actin) to drive motility [5]. During early infection, actin-based motility in the cytoplasm speeds AcMNPV transit to the nucleus and passage through nuclear pores, enabling nuclear ingress [6, 7]. During late infection, AcMNPV assembles F-actin within the nucleus [8], which is essential for virus production [9, 10]. However, the function of nuclear F-actin is poorly understood [11], and its mechanistic role in AcMNPV infection was unknown. We show that AcMNPV mobilizes actin within the nucleus to promote egress. AcMNPV nucleocapsids exhibit intranuclear actin-based motility, mediated by the viral protein P78/83 and the host Arp2/3 complex. Viral motility drives transit to the nuclear periphery and is required for viruses to enter protrusions of the nuclear envelope. Moreover, actin polymerization is necessary for viral disruption of nuclear envelope integrity during egress. In the cytoplasm, viruses use actin-based motility to reach the plasma membrane to enable budding. Our results demonstrate that pathogens can harness actin polymerization to disrupt the nuclear envelope. Employing actin for nuclear envelope disruption may reflect viral appropriation of normal functions of nuclear actin in nuclear envelope integrity, stability, and remodeling.

The Functional Oligomeric State of Tegument Protein GP41 Is Essential for Baculovirus Budded Virion and Occlusion-Derived Virion Assembly. J Virol 2018; 92:JVI.02083-17. [PMID: 29643237 DOI: 10.1128/jvi.02083-17] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2017] [Accepted: 03/31/2018] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
gp41, one of the baculovirus core genes, encodes the only recognized tegument (O-glycosylated) protein of the occlusion-derived virion (ODV) phenotype so far. A previous study using a temperature-sensitive Autographa californica multicapsid nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) mutant showed that GP41 plays a crucial role in budded virion (BV) formation. However, the precise function of GP41 in the baculovirus replication cycle remains unclear. In this study, AcMNPV GP41 was found to accumulate around the ring zone (RZ) region within the infected nucleus and finally assembled into both BVs and ODVs. Deletion of gp41 from the AcMNPV genome showed that BVs were no longer formed and ODVs were no longer assembled, suggesting the essential role of this gene in baculovirus virion morphogenesis. In infected cells, besides the 42-kDa monomers, dimers and trimers were detected under nonreducing conditions, whereas only trimeric GP41 forms were selectively incorporated into BVs or ODVs. Mutations of all five cysteines in GP41 individually had minor effects on GP41 oligomer formation, albeit certain mutations impaired infectious BV production, suggesting flexibility in the intermolecular disulfide bonding. Single mutations of key leucines within two predicted leucine zipper-like motifs did not interfere with GP41 oligomerization or BV and ODV formation, but double leucine mutations completely blocked oligomerization of GP41 and progeny BV production. In the latter case, the usual subcellular localization, especially RZ accumulation, of GP41 was abolished. The above findings clearly point out a close correlation between GP41 oligomerization and function and therefore highlight the oligomeric state as the functional form of GP41 in the baculovirus replication cycle.IMPORTANCE The tegument, which is sandwiched between the nucleocapsid and the virion envelope, is an important substructure of many enveloped viruses. It is composed of one or more proteins that have important functions during virus entry, replication, assembly, and egress. Unlike another large DNA virus (herpesvirus) that encodes an extensive set of tegument components, baculoviruses very likely exploit the major tegument protein, GP41, to execute functions in baculovirus virion morphogenesis and assembly. However, the function of this O-glycosylated baculovirus tegument protein remains largely unknown. In this study, we identified trimers as the functional structure of GP41 in baculovirus virion morphogenesis and showed that both disulfide bridging and protein-protein interactions via the two leucine zipper-like domains are involved in the formation of different oligomeric states. This study advances our understanding of the unique viral tegument protein GP41 participating in the life cycle of baculoviruses.

Abstract
Fatty acid synthase (FASN) catalyzes the synthesis of palmitate, which is required for formation of complex fatty acids and phospholipids that are involved in energy production, membrane remodeling and modification of host and viral proteins. Presently, the roles of cellular fatty acid synthesis pathway in Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) infection is not clear. In this study, we found that the transcripts level of fasn was significantly up-regulated at the early stage of AcMNPV infection. Treatment of AcMNPV-infected Spodoptera frugiperda Sf9 cells with C75, a specific inhibitor of FASN, did not affect the internalization of budded virions into cells, but dramatically reduced the infectious AcMNPV production. Further analysis revealed that the presence of C75 significantly decreased the expression level for two reporter genes, beta-galactosidase and beta-glucuronidase, that were separately directed by the early and late promoter of AcMNPV. Similarly, Western blot analysis showed that, in C75-treated cells, the expression of viral gp64 was delayed and decreased. Additionally, treatment with C75 also resulted in a significant reduction in the accumulation of viral genomic DNA. Together, these results demonstrate that the fatty acid synthesis pathway is required for efficient replication of AcMNPV, but it might not be necessary for AcMNPV entry into insect cells.
