J Virol 2024; 98:e0073724. [PMID: 39016551 PMCID: PMC11338292 DOI: 10.1128/jvi.00737-24] [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: 04/24/2024] [Accepted: 06/21/2024] [Indexed: 07/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Facilitates chromatin transcription (FACT) interacts with nucleosomes to promote gene transcription by regulating the dissociation and reassembly of nucleosomes downstream and upstream of RNA polymerase II (Pol II). A previous study reported that herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) regulatory protein ICP22 interacted with FACT and was required for its recruitment to the viral DNA genome in HSV-1-infected cells. However, the biological importance of interactions between ICP22 and FACT in relation to HSV-1 infection is unclear. Here, we mapped the minimal domain of ICP22 required for its efficient interaction with FACT to a cluster of five basic amino acids in ICP22. A recombinant virus harboring alanine substitutions in this identified cluster led to the decreased accumulation of viral mRNAs from UL54, UL38, and UL44 genes, reduced Pol II occupancy of these genes in MRC-5 cells, and impaired HSV-1 virulence in mice following ocular or intracranial infection. Furthermore, the treatment of mice infected with wild-type HSV-1 with CBL0137, a FACT inhibitor currently being investigated in clinical trials, significantly improved the survival rate of mice. These results suggested that the interaction between ICP22 and FACT was required for efficient HSV-1 gene expression and pathogenicity. Therefore, FACT might be a potential therapeutic target for HSV-1 infection.IMPORTANCEICP22 is a well-known regulatory factor of HSV-1 gene expression, but its mechanism(s) are poorly understood. Although the interaction of FACT with ICP22 was reported previously, its significance in HSV-1 infection is unknown. Given that FACT is involved in gene transcription, it is of interest to investigate this interaction as it relates to HSV-1 gene expression. To determine a direct link between the interaction and HSV-1 infection, we mapped a minimal domain of ICP22 required for its efficient interaction with FACT and generated a recombinant virus carrying mutations in the identified domain. Using the recombinant virus, we obtained evidence suggesting that the interaction between ICP22 and FACT promoted Pol II transcription from HSV-1 genes and viral virulence in mice. In addition, CBL0137, an inhibitor of FACT, effectively protected mice from lethal HSV-1 infection, suggesting FACT might be a potential target for the development of novel anti-HSV drugs.

Abstract
More than 100 different herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) genes belong to three major classes, and their expression is coordinately regulated and sequentially ordered in a cascade. This complex HSV-1 gene expression is thought to be regulated by various viral and host cellular proteins. A host cellular protein, Myb-binding protein 1A (MYBBP1A), has been reported to be associated with HSV-1 viral genomes in conjunction with viral and cellular proteins critical for DNA replication, repair, and transcription within infected cells. However, the role(s) of MYBBP1A in HSV-1 infections remains unclear. In this study, we examined the effects of MYBBP1A depletion on HSV-1 infection and found that MYBBP1A depletion significantly reduced HSV-1 replication, as well as the accumulation of several viral proteins. These results suggest that MYBBP1A is an important host cellular factor that contributes to HSV-1 replication, plausibly by promoting viral gene expression.

Abstract
Multi-subunit E3 ligases facilitate ubiquitin transfer by coordinating various substrate receptor subunits with a single catalytic center. Small molecules inducing targeted protein degradation have exploited such complexes, proving successful as therapeutics against previously undruggable targets. The C-terminal to LisH (CTLH) complex, also called the glucose-induced degradation deficient (GID) complex, is a multi-subunit E3 ligase complex highly conserved from Saccharomyces cerevisiae to humans, with roles in fundamental pathways controlling homeostasis and development in several species. However, we are only beginning to understand its mechanistic basis. Here, we review the literature of the CTLH complex from all organisms and place previous findings on individual subunits into context with recent breakthroughs on its structure and function.

Abstract
Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) can productively infect multiple cell types and establish latent infection in neurons. Infected cell protein 0 (ICP0) is an HSV-1 E3 ubiquitin ligase crucial for productive infection and reactivation from latency. However, our knowledge about its targets especially in neuronal cells is limited. We confirmed that, like in non-neuronal cells, ICP0-null virus exhibited major replication defects in primary mouse neurons and Neuro-2a cells. We identified many ICP0-interacting proteins in Neuro-2a cells, 293T cells, and human foreskin fibroblasts by mass spectrometry-based interactome analysis. Co-immunoprecipitation assays validated ICP0 interactions with acyl-coenzyme A thioesterase 8 (ACOT8), complement C1q binding protein (C1QBP), ovarian tumour domain-containing protein 4 (OTUD4), sorting nexin 9 (SNX9), and vimentin (VIM) in both Neuro-2a and 293T cells. Overexpression and knockdown experiments showed that SNX9 restricted replication of an ICP0-null but not wild-type virus in Neuro-2a cells. Ubiquitinome analysis by immunoprecipitating the trypsin-digested ubiquitin reminant followed by mass spectrometry identified numerous candidate ubiquitination substrates of ICP0 in infected Neuro-2a cells, among which OTUD4 and VIM were novel substrates confirmed to be ubiquitinated by transfected ICP0 in Neuro-2a cells despite no evidence of their degradation by ICP0. Expression of OTUD4 was induced independently of ICP0 during HSV-1 infection. Overexpressed OTUD4 enhanced type I interferon expression during infection with the ICP0-null but not wild-type virus. In summary, by combining two proteomic approaches followed by confirmatory and functional experiments, we identified and validated multiple novel targets of ICP0 and revealed potential restrictive activities of SNX9 and OTUD4 in neuronal cells.

Abstract
RAN binding protein 10 (RANBP10), a ubiquitously expressed and evolutionarily conserved protein, as a RAN-GTP exchange factor (GEF) to regulate several factors involved in cellular progression. Previous studies showed that RANBP10 was overexpressed in prostate cancer cells and was responsible for androgen receptor (AR) activation. However, the biological function of RANBP10 in glioblastoma (GBM) has not been studied. Here, we found that RANBP10 was overexpressed in GBM, and high RANBP10 expression was closely linked to poor survival of patients with GBM. Downregulation of RANBP10 significantly inhibited cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and tumor growth of GBM cells. In addition, we revealed that RANBP10 could suppress the promoter activity of FBXW7, and thereby increase the protein stability of c-Myc in GBM cells. Silencing of FBXW7 in RANBP10-knockdown GBM cells could partly negate the effects induced by RANBP10 downregulation. Taken together, our findings established that RANBP10 significantly promoted GBM progression by control of the FBXW7-c-Myc axis, and suggest that RANBP10 may be a potential target in GBM.

[PMID: 33974675 PMCID: PMC8139508 DOI: 10.1371/journal.ppat.1009580] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2021] [Revised: 05/21/2021] [Accepted: 04/23/2021] [Indexed: 01/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) utilize an atypical mode of nuclear import during cell entry. Residing in the Golgi apparatus until mitosis onset, a subviral complex composed of the minor capsid protein L2 and viral DNA (L2/vDNA) is imported into the nucleus after nuclear envelope breakdown by associating with mitotic chromatin. In this complex, L2 plays a crucial role in the interactions with cellular factors that enable delivery and ultimately tethering of the viral genome to mitotic chromatin. To date, the cellular proteins facilitating these steps remain unknown. Here, we addressed which cellular proteins may be required for this process. Using label-free mass spectrometry, biochemical assays, microscopy, and functional virological assays, we discovered that L2 engages a hitherto unknown protein complex of Ran-binding protein 10 (RanBP10), karyopherin alpha2 (KPNA2), and dynein light chain DYNLT3 to facilitate transport towards mitotic chromatin. Thus, our study not only identifies novel cellular interactors and mechanism that facilitate a poorly understood step in HPV entry, but also a novel cellular transport complex. Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) cause proliferative lesions such as benign warts or malignant invasive cancers. Like other DNA viruses, HPV has to deliver its genome to the nucleus for viral genome transcription and replication. After initial attachment, HPVs are endocytosed to be eventually directed to the trans-Golgi-network (TGN) by intracellular trafficking, where they reside until cell division. Mitosis onset enables access of the virus to cellular chromatin after nuclear envelope breakdown. Tethering of the virus to mitotic chromatin ensures nuclear delivery upon reformation of the nuclear envelope after mitosis. Our previous work showed that the minor capsid protein L2 facilitates nuclear delivery. However, the detailed mechanism, namely, how HPV trafficks from cytosol to the nuclear space, is barely understood. Here, we identified for the first time cellular proteins that interacted with L2 for nuclear import. Mechanistically, the proteins formed a hitherto unknown cellular transport complex that interacted with L2 to direct the virus to mitotic chromosomes by microtubular transport. Our findings provided not only evidence for a transport mechanism of a poorly understood step of HPV entry, but also discovered a novel cellular transport complex.

Abstract
Honokiol is a pleiotropic natural compound isolated from Magnolia and has multiple biological and clinically relevant effects, including anticancer and antimicrobial function. However, the antiviral activity of honokiol has not yet been well studied. Here we showed that honokiol had no effect on herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1) entry, but inhibited HSV-1 viral DNA replication, gene expression and the production of new progeny viruses. The combination of honokiol and clinical drug acyclovir augmented inhibition of HSV-1 infection. Our results illustrate that honokiol could be a potential new candidate for clinical consideration in the treatment of HSV-1 infection alone or combination with other therapeutics.

Abstract
Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) UL51 is a phosphoprotein that functions in the final envelopment in the cytoplasm and viral cell-cell spread, leading to efficient viral replication in cell cultures. To clarify the mechanism by which UL51 is regulated in HSV-1-infected cells, we focused on the phosphorylation of UL51. Mass spectrometry analysis of purified UL51 identified five phosphorylation sites in UL51. Alanine replacement of one of the identified phosphorylation sites in UL51, serine 184 (Ser-184), but not the other identified phosphorylation sites, significantly reduced viral replication and cell-cell spread in HaCaT cells. This mutation induced membranous invaginations adjacent to the nuclear membrane, the accumulation of primary enveloped virions in the invaginations and perinuclear space, and mislocalized UL34 and UL31 in punctate structures at the nuclear membrane; however, it had no effect on final envelopment in the cytoplasm of HaCaT cells. Of note, the alanine mutation in UL51 Ser-184 significantly reduced the mortality of mice following ocular infection. Phosphomimetic mutation in UL51 Ser-184 partly restored the wild-type phenotype in cell cultures and in mice. Based on these results, we concluded that some UL51 functions are specifically regulated by phosphorylation at Ser-184 and that this regulation is critical for HSV-1 replication in cell cultures and pathogenicity in vivoIMPORTANCE HSV-1 UL51 is conserved in all members of the Herpesviridae family. This viral protein is phosphorylated and functions in viral cell-cell spread and cytoplasmic virion maturation in HSV-1-infected cells. Although the downstream effects of HSV-1 UL51 have been clarified, there is a lack of information on how this viral protein is regulated as well as the significance of the phosphorylation of this protein in HSV-1-infected cells. In this study, we show that the phosphorylation of UL51 at Ser-184 promotes viral replication, cell-cell spread, and nuclear egress in cell cultures and viral pathogenicity in mice. This is the first report to identify the mechanism by which UL51 is regulated as well as the significance of UL51 phosphorylation in HSV-1 infection. Our study may provide insights into the regulatory mechanisms of other herpesviral UL51 homologs.

Abstract
UL13 proteins are serine/threonine protein kinases encoded by herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) and HSV-2. Although the downstream effects of the HSV protein kinases, mostly those of HSV-1 UL13, have been reported, there is a lack of information on how these viral protein kinases are regulated in HSV-infected cells. In this study, we used a large-scale phosphoproteomic analysis of HSV-2-infected cells to identify a physiological phosphorylation site in HSV-2 UL13 (i.e., Ser-18) and investigated the significance of phosphorylation of this site in HSV-2-infected cell cultures and mice. Our results were as follows. (i) An alanine substitution at UL13 Ser-18 (S18A) significantly reduced HSV-2 replication and cell-to-cell spread in U2OS cells to a level similar to those of the UL13-null and kinase-dead mutations. (ii) The UL13 S18A mutation significantly impaired phosphorylation of a cellular substrate of this viral protein kinase in HSV-2-infected U2OS cells. (iii) Following vaginal infection of mice, the UL13 S18A mutation significantly reduced mortality, HSV-2 replication in the vagina, and development of vaginal disease to levels similar to those of the UL13-null and the kinase-dead mutations. (iv) A phosphomimetic substitution at UL13 Ser-18 significantly restored the phenotype observed with the UL13 S18A mutation in U2OS cells and mice. Collectively, our results suggested that phosphorylation of UL13 Ser-18 regulated UL13 function in HSV-2-infected cells and that this regulation was critical for the functional activity of HSV-2 UL13 in vitro and in vivo and also for HSV-2 replication and pathogenesis.IMPORTANCE Based on studies on cellular protein kinases, it is obvious that the regulatory mechanisms of protein kinases are as crucial as their functional consequences. Herpesviruses each encode at least one protein kinase, but the mechanism by which these kinases are regulated in infected cells remains to be elucidated, with a few exceptions, although information on their functional effects has been accumulating. In this study, we have shown that phosphorylation of the HSV-2 UL13 protein kinase at Ser-18 regulated its function in infected cells, and this regulation was critical for HSV-2 replication and pathogenesis in vivo UL13 is conserved in all members of the family Herpesviridae, and this is the first report clarifying the regulatory mechanism of a conserved herpesvirus protein kinase that is involved in viral replication and pathogenesis in vivo Our study may provide insight into the regulatory mechanisms of the other conserved herpesvirus protein kinases.

Abstract
By analyzing multitissue gene expression and genome-wide genetic variation data in samples from a vervet monkey pedigree, we generated a transcriptome resource and produced the first catalog of expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) in a nonhuman primate model. This catalog contains more genome-wide significant eQTLs per sample than comparable human resources and identifies sex- and age-related expression patterns. Findings include a master regulatory locus that likely has a role in immune function and a locus regulating hippocampal long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), whose expression correlates with hippocampal volume. This resource will facilitate genetic investigation of quantitative traits, including brain and behavioral phenotypes relevant to neuropsychiatric disorders.

Am J Cancer Res 2017; 7:2452-2462. [PMID: 28744327 PMCID: PMC5525749 DOI: 10.7150/thno.18813] [Citation(s) in RCA: 38] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2016] [Accepted: 04/18/2017] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in several neurobiological processes, including the development and progression of diseases. Previously, we identified that one specific miRNA, miR-196a, provides neuroprotective effects on Huntington's disease (HD), although the detailed mechanism is still unclear. Based on our bioinformatic analyses, we hypothesize miR-196a might offer neuroprotective functions through improving cytoskeletons of brain cells. Here, we show that miR-196a could enhance neuronal morphology, further ameliorating intracellular transport, synaptic plasticity, neuronal activity, and learning and memory abilities. Additionally, we found that miR-196a could suppress the expression of RAN binding protein 10 (RANBP10) through binding to its 3' untranslated region, and higher expression of RANBP10 exacerbates neuronal morphology and intracellular transport. Furthermore, miR-196a enhances neuronal morphology through suppressing RANBP10 and increasing the ability of β-tubulin polymerization. Most importantly, we observed higher expression of RANBP10 in the brains of HD transgenic mice, and higher expression of RANBP10 might exacerbate the pathological aggregates in HD. Taken together, we provide evidence that enhancement of neuronal morphology through RANBP10 is one of the neuroprotective mechanisms for miR-196a. Since miR-196a has also been reported in other neuronal diseases, this study might offer insights with regard to the therapeutic use of miR-196a in other neuronal diseases.
