Kilinc OC, Ugurlu S. Clinical features of dermatomyositis patients with anti-TIF1 antibodies: A case based comprehensive review. Autoimmun Rev 2023; 22:103464. [PMID: 37863375 DOI: 10.1016/j.autrev.2023.103464] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2023] [Accepted: 10/13/2023] [Indexed: 10/22/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Dermatomyositis is chronic autoimmune disease primarily affecting skin and muscles. Antibodies are key players of pathogenesis and are in strong correlation with distinct clinical phenotypes. We present a case and a comprehensive review of the literature on dermatomyositis patients with Anti TIF1 antibodies. METHODS PubMed and Web of Science databases were reviewed. 166 articles were identified; 95 of them were evaluated; 79 of them included to the study. 45 of the included articles were case reports 9 were case series and 25 were research articles. In total 1065 patients were identified but number of patients with available information for different clinical features varied. RESULTS 69.6% of the patients with Anti TIF1-γ were female. Prevalence of malignancy was 42.6% among patients with Anti TIF1-γ. Muscle weakness (83%), Gottron sign (82.2%), heliotrope rash (73.7%), nailfold capillary changes (67.7%), dysphagia (38.4%), and joint involvement (31.1%) were the most common clinical features seen in patients with Anti TIF1-γ. Interstitial lung disease (ILD) was reported among 8.7% of patients with Anti TIF1-γ. Advanced age, male gender, dysphagia, and V-neck rash were significant risk factors for malignancy, whereas juvenile age, ILD, TIF1-β antibodies and joint involvement were associated with a decreased risk for malignancy. Advanced age, malignancy, dysphagia, and muscle involvement were associated with an increased risk for mortality. CONCLUSIONS Patients with advanced age, male gender, dysphagia, and V-neck rash require strict cancer screening. Patients with advanced age, malignancy, dysphagia, and muscle involvement have poor prognosis and should receive aggressive treatment.

De La Cruz-Herrera CF, Tatham MH, Siddiqi UZ, Shire K, Marcon E, Greenblatt JF, Hay RT, Frappier L. Changes in SUMO-modified proteins in Epstein-Barr virus infection identifies reciprocal regulation of TRIM24/28/33 complexes and the lytic switch BZLF1. PLoS Pathog 2023; 19:e1011477. [PMID: 37410772 DOI: 10.1371/journal.ppat.1011477] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2023] [Accepted: 06/12/2023] [Indexed: 07/08/2023] Open
Abstract
SUMO modifications regulate the function of many proteins and are important in controlling herpesvirus infections. We performed a site-specific proteomic analysis of SUMO1- and SUMO2-modified proteins in Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) latent and lytic infection to identify proteins that change in SUMO modification status in response to EBV reactivation. Major changes were identified in all three components of the TRIM24/TRIM28/TRIM33 complex, with TRIM24 being rapidly degraded and TRIM33 being phosphorylated and SUMOylated in response to EBV lytic infection. Further experiments revealed TRIM24 and TRIM33 repress expression of the EBV BZLF1 lytic switch gene, suppressing EBV reactivation. However, BZLF1 was shown to interact with TRIM24 and TRIM33, resulting in disruption of TRIM24/TRIM28/TRIM33 complexes, degradation of TRIM24 and modification followed by degradation of TRIM33. Therefore, we have identified TRIM24 and TRIM33 as cellular antiviral defence factors against EBV lytic infection and established the mechanism by which BZLF1 disables this defence.

The adenoviral E4orf3/4 is a regulatory polypeptide with cell transforming properties in vitro. Tumour Virus Res 2023; 15:200254. [PMID: 36707050 DOI: 10.1016/j.tvr.2023.200254] [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: 12/06/2022] [Revised: 01/05/2023] [Accepted: 01/24/2023] [Indexed: 01/26/2023] Open
Abstract
The human adenovirus species C type 5 (HAdV-C5) early region 4 (E4) encodes several distinct polypeptides, defined as E4orf1 to E4orf6/7 according to the order and arrangement of the corresponding open reading frames (ORFs). All E4 gene products operate through a complex network of interactions with key viral and cellular regulatory proteins involved in transcription, apoptosis, cell cycle control, and DNA repair. Here, we generated a set of virus mutants carrying point mutations in the individual E4 genes. The phenotypic characterizations of these mutants revealed that mutations of these ORFs had no or only moderate effects on virus replication. Even a triple mutant that fails to produce E4orf3, E4orf4, and the yet uncharacterized alternatively spliced E4orf3/4 fusion protein, was replicating to wild type levels. The E4orf3/4 protein consists of the N-terminal 33 amino acid residues from E4orf3 and the C-terminal 28 amino acid residues from E4orf4. Intriguingly, we found that, similar to E4orf3, E4orf3/4 possesses properties that support the E1A/E1B-induced transformation of primary rodent cells. These results identify and functionally characterize E4orf3/4 and conclude that E4orf3/4 is another E4 region protein that is dispensable for virus replication but promotes the E1A/E1B-induced transformation of primary rodent cells.

Abstract
Promyelocytic leukemia nuclear bodies (PML-NBs) were considered to maintain antiviral capacity, as these spherical complexes are antagonized by viruses. Actual work provides evidence, that PML-NB-associated factors might also be beneficial for distinct viral processes indicating why genomes and replication centers of nuclear replicating viruses are often found juxtaposed to PML-NBs. Several early HAdV proteins target PML-NBs, such as E4orf3 that promotes redistribution into track-like structures. PML-associated dependency factors that enhance viral gene expression, such as Sp100A remain in the nuclear tracks while restrictive factors, such as Daxx, are inhibited by either proteasomal degradation or relocalization to repress antiviral functions. Here, we did a comprehensive analysis of nuclear PML isoforms during HAdV infection. Our results show cell line specific differences as PML isoforms differentially regulate productive HAdV replication and progeny production. Here, we identified PML-II as a dependency factor that supports viral progeny production, while PML-III and PML-IV suppress viral replication. In contrast, we identified PML-I as a positive regulator and PML-V as a restrictive factor during HAdV infection. Solely PML-VI was shown to repress adenoviral progeny production in both model systems. We showed for the first time, that HAdV can reorganize PML-NBs that contain PML isoforms other then PML-II. Intriguingly, HAdV was not able to fully disrupt PML-NBs composed out of the PML isoforms that inhibit viral replication, while PML-NBs composed out of PML isoforms with beneficial influence on the virus formed tracks in all examined cells. In sum, our findings clearly illustrate the crucial role of PML-track formation in efficient viral replication. IMPORTANCE Actual work provides evidence that PML-NB-associated factors might also be beneficial for distinct viral processes indicating why genomes and replication centers of nuclear replicating viruses are often found juxtaposed to PML-NBs. Alternatively spliced PML isoforms I-VII are expressed from one single pml gene containing nine exons and their transcription is tightly controlled and stimulated by interferons and p53. Several early HAdV proteins target PML-NBs, such as E4orf3, promoting redistribution into track-like structures. Our comprehensive studies indicate a diverging role of PML isoforms throughout the course of productive HAdV infection in either stably transformed human lung (H1299) or liver (HepG2) cells, in which we observed a multivalent regulation of HAdV by all six PML isoforms. PML-I and PML-II support HAdV-mediated track formation and efficient formation of viral replication centers, thus promoting HAdV productive infection. Simultaneously, PML-III, -IV,-V, and -VI antagonize viral gene expression and particle production.

Adenovirus Remodeling of the Host Proteome and Host Factors Associated with Viral Genomes. mSystems 2021; 6:e0046821. [PMID: 34463575 DOI: 10.1128/msystems.00468-21] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/15/2021] [Accepted: 08/09/2021] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Viral infections are associated with extensive remodeling of the cellular proteome. Viruses encode gene products that manipulate host proteins to redirect cellular processes or subvert antiviral immune responses. Adenovirus (AdV) encodes proteins from the early E4 region which are necessary for productive infection. Some cellular antiviral proteins are known to be targeted by AdV E4 gene products, resulting in their degradation or mislocalization. However, the full repertoire of host proteome changes induced by viral E4 proteins has not been defined. To identify cellular proteins and processes manipulated by viral products, we developed a global, unbiased proteomics approach to analyze changes to the host proteome during infection with adenovirus serotype 5 (Ad5) virus. We used whole-cell proteomics to measure total protein abundances in the proteome during Ad5 infection. Since host antiviral proteins can antagonize viral infection by associating with viral genomes and inhibiting essential viral processes, we used Isolation of Proteins on Nascent DNA (iPOND) proteomics to identify proteins associated with viral genomes during infection with wild-type Ad5 or an E4 mutant virus. By integrating these proteomics data sets, we identified cellular factors that are degraded in an E4-dependent manner or are associated with the viral genome in the absence of E4 proteins. We further show that some identified proteins exert inhibitory effects on Ad5 infection. Our systems-level analysis reveals cellular processes that are manipulated during Ad5 infection and points to host factors counteracted by early viral proteins as they remodel the host proteome to promote efficient infection. IMPORTANCE Viral infections induce myriad changes to the host cell proteome. As viruses harness cellular processes and counteract host defenses, they impact abundance, post-translational modifications, interactions, or localization of cellular proteins. Elucidating the dynamic changes to the cellular proteome during viral replication is integral to understanding how virus-host interactions influence the outcome of infection. Adenovirus encodes early gene products from the E4 genomic region that are known to alter host response pathways and promote replication, but the full extent of proteome modifications they mediate is not known. We used an integrated proteomics approach to quantitate protein abundance and protein associations with viral DNA during virus infection. Systems-level analysis identifies cellular proteins and processes impacted in an E4-dependent manner, suggesting ways that adenovirus counteracts potentially inhibitory host defenses. This study provides a global view of adenovirus-mediated proteome remodeling, which can serve as a model to investigate virus-host interactions of DNA viruses.

Double-edged role of PML nuclear bodies during human adenovirus infection. Virus Res 2020; 295:198280.

Abstract
PML nuclear bodies are matrix-bound nuclear structures with a variety of functions in human cells. These nuclear domains are interferon regulated and play an essential role during virus infections involving accumulation of SUMO-dependent host and viral factors. PML-NBs are targeted and subsequently manipulated by adenoviral regulatory proteins, illustrating their crucial role during productive infection and virus-mediated oncogenic transformation. PML-NBs have a longstanding antiviral reputation; however, the genomes of Human Adenoviruses and initial sites of viral transcription/replication are found juxtaposed to these domains, resulting in a double-edged capacity of these nuclear multiprotein/multifunctional complexes. This enigma provides evidence that Human Adenoviruses selectively counteract antiviral responses, and simultaneously benefit from or even depend on proviral PML-NB associated components by active recruitment to PML track-like structures, that are induced during infection. Thereby, a positive microenvironment for adenoviral transcription and replication is created at these nuclear subdomains. Based on the available data, this review aims to provide a detailed overview of the current knowledge of Human Adenovirus crosstalk with nuclear PML body compartments as sites of SUMOylation processes in the host cells, evaluating the currently known principles and molecular mechanisms.

Abstract
Virus–host cell interactions include several skirmishes between the virus and its host, and the DNA damage response (DDR) network is one of their important battlegrounds. Although some aspects of the DDR are exploited by adenovirus (Ad) to improve virus replication, especially at the early phase of infection, a large body of evidence demonstrates that Ad devotes many of its proteins, including E1B-55K, E4orf3, E4orf4, E4orf6, and core protein VII, and utilizes varied mechanisms to inhibit the DDR. These findings indicate that the DDR would strongly restrict Ad replication if allowed to function efficiently. Various Ad serotypes inactivate DNA damage sensors, including the Mre11-Rad50-Nbs1 (MRN) complex, DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK), and Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1). As a result, these viruses inhibit signaling via DDR transducers, such as the ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) and ATM- and Rad3-related (ATR) kinases, to downstream effectors. The different Ad serotypes utilize both shared and distinct mechanisms to inhibit various branches of the DDR. The aim of this review is to understand the interactions between Ad proteins and the DDR and to appreciate how these interactions contribute to viral replication.

Abstract
Viruses alter host cell processes to optimize their replication cycle. Human adenoviruses (Ad) encode proteins that promote viral macromolecular synthesis and counteract innate and adaptive responses to infection. The focus of this review is on how Ad evades innate cellular responses to infection, including an interferon (IFN) response and a DNA damage response (DDR). Ad blocks the IFN response by inhibiting cytoplasmic signaling pathways and the activation of IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs), as well as the functions of ISG products, such as PML. Ad also inhibits DDR sensors, for instance, the Mre11-Rad50-Nbs1 complex, and DDR effectors like DNA ligase IV. These innate cellular responses impact many different viruses, and studies on Ad have provided broad insight into these areas.

Abstract
Transcriptional intermediary factor 1 γ (TIF1γ), also known as TRIM33, RFG7, PTC7, or Ectodermin, is an E3 ubiquitin-ligase family member with a ring-box-coiled-coil region. It can regulate TGF-β/Smad signaling in two different ways in different cellular contexts. On one hand, TIF1γ can monoubiquitinate Smad4 to inhibit the formation of Smad2/3/4 nuclear complexes. On the other hand, TIF1γ can function as a cofactor of phosphorylated (p)-Smad2/3, competing with Smad4 to inhibit the formation of the Smad2/3/4 complex. In addition, TIF1γ has been reported to play a role in transcription elongation, cellular differentiation, embryonic development, and mitosis. As transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily signaling plays an important role in the occurrence and development of cancer, and TIF1γ was reported to be involved in the regulation of TGF-β superfamily signaling, studies on TIF1γ during the last decade have focused on its role in the development of cancer. However, TIF1γ can function either as a tumor suppressor or promoter in different cellular contexts, yet there are few reviews focusing on the roles of TIF1γ in cancer. Hence, in this paper we systematically review and discuss the roles of TIF1γ in cancer. Firstly, we review the biological features, the regulatory mechanisms and the related signaling pathways of TIF1γ. Next, we illustrate the roles of TIF1γ in different tumors. We then provide a tentative hypothesis that explains the dual roles of TIF1 γ in cancer. Finally, we provide our viewpoint regarding the future developments of cancer research focusing on TIF1γ, especially in relation to the effects of TIF1γ on tumoral immunity.

Adenovirus E1B 55-Kilodalton Protein Targets SMARCAL1 for Degradation during Infection and Modulates Cellular DNA Replication. J Virol 2019; 93:JVI.00402-19. [PMID: 30996091 DOI: 10.1128/jvi.00402-19] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2019] [Accepted: 04/10/2019] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Here, we show that the cellular DNA replication protein and ATR substrate SMARCAL1 is recruited to viral replication centers early during adenovirus infection and is then targeted in an E1B-55K/E4orf6- and cullin RING ligase-dependent manner for proteasomal degradation. In this regard, we have determined that SMARCAL1 is phosphorylated at S123, S129, and S173 early during infection in an ATR- and CDK-dependent manner, and that pharmacological inhibition of ATR and CDK activities attenuates SMARCAL1 degradation. SMARCAL1 recruitment to viral replication centers was shown to be largely dependent upon SMARCAL1 association with the RPA complex, while Ad-induced SMARCAL1 phosphorylation also contributed to SMARCAL1 recruitment to viral replication centers, albeit to a limited extent. SMARCAL1 was found associated with E1B-55K in adenovirus E1-transformed cells. Consistent with its ability to target SMARCAL1, we determined that E1B-55K modulates cellular DNA replication. As such, E1B-55K expression initially enhances cellular DNA replication fork speed but ultimately leads to increased replication fork stalling and the attenuation of cellular DNA replication. Therefore, we propose that adenovirus targets SMARCAL1 for degradation during infection to inhibit cellular DNA replication and promote viral replication.IMPORTANCE Viruses have evolved to inhibit cellular DNA damage response pathways that possess antiviral activities and utilize DNA damage response pathways that possess proviral activities. Adenovirus has evolved, primarily, to inhibit DNA damage response pathways by engaging with the ubiquitin-proteasome system and promoting the degradation of key cellular proteins. Adenovirus differentially regulates ATR DNA damage response signaling pathways during infection. The cellular adenovirus E1B-55K binding protein E1B-AP5 participates in ATR signaling pathways activated during infection, while adenovirus 12 E4orf6 negates Chk1 activation by promoting the proteasome-dependent degradation of the ATR activator TOPBP1. The studies detailed here indicate that adenovirus utilizes ATR kinase and CDKs during infection to promote the degradation of SMARCAL1 to attenuate normal cellular DNA replication. These studies further our understanding of the relationship between adenovirus and DNA damage and cell cycle signaling pathways during infection and establish new roles for E1B-55K in the modulation of cellular DNA replication.

Abstract
The first line of defense in cells during viral infection is the innate immune system, which is activated by different viral products. PKR is a part of this innate immune system and is induced by interferon and activated by dsRNA produced by DNA and RNA viruses. PKR is such an important part of the antiviral response that many viral families have gene products to counteract its activation or the resulting effects of its activity. Although a few RNA viruses degrade PKR, this method of counteracting PKR has not been reported for any DNA viruses. MAV-1 does not encode virus-associated RNAs, a human adenoviral defense against PKR activation. Instead, MAV-1 degrades PKR, and it is the first DNA virus reported to do so. The innate immune evasion by PKR degradation is a previously unidentified way for a DNA virus to circumvent the host antiviral response. Protein kinase R (PKR) plays a major role in activating host immunity during infection by sensing double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) produced by viruses. Once activated by dsRNA, PKR phosphorylates the translation factor eukaryotic initiation factor 2α (eIF2α), halting cellular translation. Many viruses have methods of inhibiting PKR activation or its downstream effects, circumventing protein synthesis shutdown. These include sequestering dsRNA or producing proteins that bind to and inhibit PKR activation. Here we describe our finding that in multiple cell types, PKR was depleted during mouse adenovirus type 1 (MAV-1) infection. MAV-1 did not appear to be targeting PKR at the transcriptional or translational level, because total PKR mRNA levels and levels of PKR mRNA bound to polysomes were unchanged or increased during MAV-1 infection. However, inhibiting the proteasome reduced the PKR depletion seen in MAV-1-infected cells, whereas inhibiting the lysosome had no effect. This suggests that proteasomal degradation alone is responsible for PKR degradation during MAV-1 infection. Time course experiments indicated that the degradation occurs early after infection. Infecting cells with UV-inactivated virus prevented PKR degradation, whereas inhibiting viral DNA replication did not. Together, these results suggest that an early viral gene is responsible. Degradation of PKR is a rare mechanism to oppose PKR activity, and it has been described in only six RNA viruses. To our knowledge, this is the first example of a DNA virus counteracting PKR by degrading it.

Abstract
Regulation of a variety of different cellular processes, including posttranslational modifications, is critical for the ability of many viruses to replicate efficiently within host cells. The adenovirus (Ad) E4-ORF3 protein assembles into polymers and forms a unique nuclear scaffold that leads to the relocalization and sequestration of cellular proteins, including small ubiquitin-like modifiers (SUMOs). Previously, we showed that E4-ORF3 functions as a SUMO E3 ligase of transcriptional intermediary factor-1 gamma (TIF-1γ) and promotes poly-SUMO chain formation. Here, we present cellular and biochemical data to further understand E4-ORF3 SUMO ligase activity. E4-ORF3 proteins from five different Ad species were found to possess SUMO E3 ligase activities in vitro In infected cells, SUMO modifications of target proteins occurred only when the proteins were recruited into E4-ORF3 polymeric structures. By analyzing SUMO-deficient TIF-1γ, we demonstrated that SUMO conjugations are not required for E4-ORF3-mediated relocalization of target proteins in infected cells, implying that sequestration is followed by SUMO modification. In vitro SUMO conjugation assays revealed the Ad E1B-55K oncoprotein as a new viral target of E4-ORF3-mediated SUMOylation. We also verified a direct function of E4-ORF3 as a SUMO ligase for multiple cellular proteins, including transcription factor II-I (TFII-I), Nbs1, and Mre11. Moreover, we discovered that E4-ORF3 associates with SUMO-bound UBC9, and E4-ORF3 polymerization is crucial for this ternary interaction. Together, our findings characterize E4-ORF3 as a novel polymer-type SUMO E3 ligase and provide mechanistic insights into the role of E4-ORF3 in SUMO conjugation.IMPORTANCE Viruses interplay with the host SUMOylation system to manipulate diverse cellular responses. The Ad E4-ORF3 protein forms a dynamic nuclear network to interfere with and exploit different host processes, including the DNA damage and interferon responses. We previously reported that E4-ORF3 is a SUMO E3 ligase. Here, we demonstrate that this activity is a conserved function of evolutionarily diverse human Ad E4-ORF3 proteins and that E4-ORF3 functions directly to promote SUMO conjugations to multiple cellular proteins. Recruitment of cellular substrates into E4-ORF3 nuclear inclusions is required for SUMO conjugation to occur in vivo We probed the mechanism by which E4-ORF3 functions as a SUMO E3 ligase. Only multimeric, but not dimeric, E4-ORF3 binds to the SUMO E2 conjugation enzyme UBC9 in vitro only in a trimeric complex with SUMO. These results reveal a novel mechanism by which a conserved viral protein usurps the cellular SUMO conjugation machinery.

Abstract
Productive HIV-1 replication requires viral integrase (IN), which catalyzes integration of the viral genome into the host cell DNA. IN, however, is short lived and is rapidly degraded by the host ubiquitin-proteasome system. To identify the cellular factors responsible for HIV-1 IN degradation, we performed a targeted RNAi screen using a library of siRNAs against all components of the ubiquitin-conjugation machinery using high-content microscopy. Here we report that the E3 RING ligase TRIM33 is a major determinant of HIV-1 IN stability. CD4-positive cells with TRIM33 knock down show increased HIV-1 replication and proviral DNA formation, while those overexpressing the factor display opposite effects. Knock down of TRIM33 reverts the phenotype of an HIV-1 molecular clone carrying substitution of IN serine 57 to alanine, a mutation known to impair viral DNA integration. Thus, TRIM33 acts as a cellular factor restricting HIV-1 infection by preventing provirus formation. HIV-1 integration into host DNA is mediated by the viral integrase (IN). Here, using siRNA screen and high-content microscopy, the authors identify the host E3 RING ligase TRIM33 to affect IN stability and show that TRIM33 prevents viral integration by triggering IN proteasome-mediated degradation.

Abstract
Currently, 88 different Human Adenovirus (HAdV) types are grouped into seven HAdV species A to G. Most types (57) belong to species HAdV-D. Recombination between capsid genes (hexon, penton and fiber) is the main factor contributing to the diversity in species HAdV-D. Noteworthy, species HAdV-C contains so far only five types, although species HAdV-C is highly prevalent and clinically significant in immunosuppressed patients. Therefore, the evolution of species HAdV-C was studied by generating 51 complete genome sequences from circulating strains. Clustering of the whole genome HAdV-C sequences confirmed classical typing results (fifteen HAdV-C1, thirty HAdV-C2, four HAdV-C5, two HAdV-C6). However, two HAdV-C2 strains had a novel penton base sequence and thus were re-labeled as the novel type HAdV-C89. Fiber and early gene region 3 (E3) sequences clustered always with the corresponding prototype sequence but clustering of the E4 region indicated recombination events in 26 out of the 51 sequenced specimens. Recombination of the E1 gene region was detected in 16 circulating strains. As early gene region sequences are not considered in the type definition of HAdVs, evolution of HAdV-C remains on the subtype level. Nonetheless, recombination of the E1 and E4 gene regions may influence the virulence of HAdV-C strains.

Abstract
Infection by most DNA viruses activates a cellular DNA damage response (DDR), which may be to the detriment or advantage of the virus. In the case of adenoviruses, they neutralize antiviral effects of DDR activation by targeting a number of proteins for rapid proteasome-mediated degradation. We have now identified a novel DDR protein, tankyrase 1 binding protein 1 (TNKS1BP1) (also known as Tab182), which is degraded during infection by adenovirus serotype 5 and adenovirus serotype 12. In both cases, degradation requires the action of the early region 1B55K (E1B55K) and early region 4 open reading frame 6 (E4orf6) viral proteins and is mediated through the proteasome by the action of cullin-based cellular E3 ligases. The degradation of Tab182 appears to be serotype specific, as the protein remains relatively stable following infection with adenovirus serotypes 4, 7, 9, and 11. We have gone on to confirm that Tab182 is an integral component of the CNOT complex, which has transcriptional regulatory, deadenylation, and E3 ligase activities. The levels of at least 2 other members of the complex (CNOT3 and CNOT7) are also reduced during adenovirus infection, whereas the levels of CNOT4 and CNOT1 remain stable. The depletion of Tab182 with small interfering RNA (siRNA) enhances the expression of early region 1A proteins (E1As) to a limited extent during adenovirus infection, but the depletion of CNOT1 is particularly advantageous to the virus and results in a marked increase in the expression of adenovirus early proteins. In addition, the depletion of Tab182 and CNOT1 results in a limited increase in the viral DNA level during infection. We conclude that the cellular CNOT complex is a previously unidentified major target for adenoviruses during infection. IMPORTANCE Adenoviruses target a number of cellular proteins involved in the DNA damage response for rapid degradation. We have now shown that Tab182, which we have confirmed to be an integral component of the mammalian CNOT complex, is degraded following infection by adenovirus serotypes 5 and 12. This requires the viral E1B55K and E4orf6 proteins and is mediated by cullin-based E3 ligases and the proteasome. In addition to Tab182, the levels of other CNOT proteins are also reduced during adenovirus infection. Thus, CNOT3 and CNOT7, for example, are degraded, whereas CNOT4 and CNOT1 are not. The siRNA-mediated depletion of components of the complex enhances the expression of adenovirus early proteins and increases the concentration of viral DNA produced during infection. This study highlights a novel protein complex, CNOT, which is targeted for adenovirus-mediated protein degradation. To our knowledge, this is the first time that the CNOT complex has been identified as an adenoviral target.

Abstract
Adenovirus has evolved strategies to usurp host-cell factors and machinery to facilitate its life cycle, including cell entry, replication, assembly and egress. Adenovirus continues, therefore, to be an important model system for investigating fundamental cellular processes. The role of adenovirus E1B-55k in targeting host-cell proteins that possess antiviral activity for proteasomal degradation is now well established. To expand our understanding of E1B-55k in regulating the levels of host-cell proteins, we performed comparative proteome analysis of wild-type, and E1B-55k-deletion, adenovirus-infected cancer cells. As such we performed quantitative MS/MS analysis to monitor protein expression changes affected by viral E1B-55k. We identified 5937 proteins, and of these, 69 and 58 proteins were down-regulated during wild-type and E1B-55k (dl1520) adenovirus infection, respectively. This analysis revealed that there are many, previously unidentified, cellular proteins subjected to degradation by adenovirus utilizing pathways independent of E1B-55k expression. Moreover, we found that ALCAM, EPHA2 and PTPRF, three cellular proteins that function in the regulation of cell-cell contacts, appeared to be degraded by E1B-55k/E4orf3 and/or E1B-55k/E4orf6 complexes. These molecules, like integrin α3 (a known substrate of E1B-55k/E4orf6), are critical regulators of cell signalling, cell adhesion and cell surface modulation, and their degradation during infection is, potentially, pertinent to adenovirus propagation. The data presented in this study illustrate the broad nature of protein down-regulation mediated by adenovirus.

Abstract
Autoantibodies specific for idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (myositis-specific autoantibodies (MSAs)) are clinically useful biomarkers to help the diagnosis of polymyositis/dermatomyositis (PM/DM). Many of these are also associated with a unique clinical subset of PM/DM, making them useful in predicting and monitoring certain clinical manifestations. Classic MSAs known for over 30 years include antibodies to Jo-1 (histidyl transfer RNA (tRNA) synthetase) and other aminoacyl tRNA synthetases (ARS), anti-Mi-2, and anti-signal recognition particle (SRP). Anti-Jo-1 is the first autoantibodies to ARS detected in 15-25 % of patients. In addition to anti-Jo-1, antibodies to seven other aminoacyl tRNA synthetases (ARS) have been reported with prevalence, usually 1-5 % or lower. Patients with any anti-ARS antibodies are associated with anti-synthetase syndrome characterized by myositis, interstitial lung disease (ILD), arthritis, Raynaud's phenomenon, and others. Several recent studies suggested heterogeneity in clinical features among different anti-ARS antibody-positive patients and anti-ARS may also be found in idiopathic ILD without myositis. Anti-Mi-2 is a classic marker for DM and associated with good response to steroid treatment and good prognosis. Anti-SRP is specific for PM and associated with treatment-resistant myopathy histologically characterized as necrotizing myopathy. In addition to classic MSAs, several new autoantibodies with strong clinical significance have been described in DM. Antibodies to transcription intermediary factor 1γ/α (TIF1γ/α, p155/140) are frequently found in DM associated with malignancy while anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5; CADM140) are associated with clinically amyopathic DM (CADM) complicated by rapidly progressive ILD. Also, anti-MJ/nuclear matrix protein 2 (NXP-2) and anti-small ubiquitin-like modifier-1 (SUMO-1) activating enzyme (SAE) are recognized as new DM-specific autoantibodies. Addition of these new antibodies to clinical practice in the future will help in making earlier and more accurate diagnoses and better management for patients.

Abstract
The human adenovirus genome is transported into the nucleus, where viral gene transcription, viral DNA replication, and virion assembly take place. Posttranslational modifications by small ubiquitin-like modifiers (SUMOs) are implicated in the regulation of diverse cellular processes, particularly nuclear events. It is not surprising, therefore, that adenovirus modulates and utilizes the host sumoylation system. Adenovirus early proteins play an important role in establishing optimal host environments for virus replication within infected cells by stimulating the cell cycle and counteracting host antiviral defenses. Here, we review findings on the mechanisms and functional consequences of the interplay between human adenovirus early proteins and the host sumoylation system.

Abstract
The adenovirus (Ad) early region 4 (E4)-ORF3 protein regulates diverse cellular processes to optimize the host environment for the establishment of Ad replication. E4-ORF3 self-assembles into multimers to form a nuclear scaffold in infected cells and creates distinct binding interfaces for different cellular target proteins. Previous studies have shown that the Ad5 E4-ORF3 protein induces sumoylation of multiple cellular proteins and subsequent proteasomal degradation of some of them, but the detailed mechanism of E4-ORF3 function remained unknown. Here, we investigate the role of E4-ORF3 in the sumoylation process by using transcription intermediary factor (TIF)-1γ as a substrate. Remarkably, we discovered that purified E4-ORF3 protein stimulates TIF-1γ sumoylation in vitro, demonstrating that E4-ORF3 acts as a small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) E3 ligase. Furthermore, E4-ORF3 significantly increases poly-SUMO3 chain formation in vitro in the absence of substrate, showing that E4-ORF3 has SUMO E4 elongase activity. An E4-ORF3 mutant, which is defective in protein multimerization, exhibited severely decreased activity, demonstrating that E4-ORF3 self-assembly is required for these activities. Using a SUMO3 mutant, K11R, we found that E4-ORF3 facilitates the initial acceptor SUMO3 conjugation to TIF-1γ as well as poly-SUMO chain elongation. The E4-ORF3 protein displays no SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligase activity in our assay system. These studies reveal the mechanism by which E4-ORF3 targets specific cellular proteins for sumoylation and proteasomal degradation and provide significant insight into how a small viral protein can play a role as a SUMO E3 ligase and E4-like SUMO elongase to impact a variety of cellular responses.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Modulation of host cell transcription, translation, and posttranslational modification processes is critical for the ability of many viruses to replicate efficiently within host cells. The human adenovirus (Ad) early region 4 open reading frame 3 (E4-ORF3) protein forms unique inclusions throughout the nuclei of infected cells and inhibits the antiviral Mre11-Rad50-Nbs1 DNA repair complex through relocalization. E4-ORF3 also induces SUMOylation of Mre11 and Nbs1. We recently identified additional cellular targets of E4-ORF3 and found that E4-ORF3 stimulates ubiquitin-like modification of 41 cellular proteins involved in a wide variety of processes. Among the proteins most abundantly modified in an E4-ORF3-dependent manner was the general transcription factor II-I (TFII-I). Analysis of Ad-infected cells revealed that E4-ORF3 induces TFII-I relocalization and SUMOylation early during infection. In the present study, we explored the relationship between E4-ORF3 and TFII-I. We found that Ad infection or ectopic E4-ORF3 expression leads to SUMOylation of TFII-I that precedes a rapid decline in TFII-I protein levels. We also show that E4-ORF3 is required for ubiquitination of TFII-I and subsequent proteasomal degradation. This is the first evidence that E4-ORF3 regulates ubiquitination. Interestingly, we found that E4-ORF3 modulation of TFII-I occurs in diverse cell types but only E4-ORF3 of Ad species C regulates TFII-I, providing critical insight into the mechanism by which E4-ORF3 targets TFII-I. Finally, we show that E4-ORF3 stimulates the activity of a TFII-I-repressed viral promoter during infection. Our results characterize a novel mechanism of TFII-I regulation by Ad and highlight how a viral protein can modulate a critical cellular transcription factor during infection. IMPORTANCE Adenovirus has evolved a number of mechanisms to target host signaling pathways in order to optimize the cellular environment during infection. E4-ORF3 is a small viral protein made early during infection, and it is critical for inactivating host antiviral responses. In addition to its ability to capture and reorganize cellular proteins, E4-ORF3 also regulates posttranslational modifications of target proteins, but little is known about the functional consequences of these modifications. We recently identified TFII-I as a novel target of E4-ORF3 that is relocalized into dynamic E4-ORF3 nuclear structures and subjected to E4-ORF3-mediated SUMO modification. Here, we show that TFII-I is targeted by E4-ORF3 for ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation and that E4-ORF3 stimulates gene expression from a TFII-I-repressed viral promoter. Our findings suggest that the specific targeting of TFII-I by E4-ORF3 is a mechanism to inactivate its antiviral properties. These studies provide further insight into how E4-ORF3 functions to counteract host antiviral responses.

KAP1 Is a Host Restriction Factor That Promotes Human Adenovirus E1B-55K SUMO Modification. J Virol 2015; 90:930-46.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Once transported to the replication sites, human adenoviruses (HAdVs) need to ensure decondensation and transcriptional activation of their viral genomes to synthesize viral proteins and initiate steps to reprogram the host cell for viral replication. These early stages during adenoviral infection are poorly characterized but represent a decisive moment in the establishment of a productive infection. Here, we identify a novel host viral restriction factor, KAP1. This heterochromatin-associated transcription factor regulates the dynamic organization of the host chromatin structure via its ability to influence epigenetic marks and chromatin compaction. In response to DNA damage, KAP1 is phosphorylated and functionally inactive, resulting in chromatin relaxation. We discovered that KAP1 posttranslational modification is dramatically altered during HAdV infection to limit the antiviral capacity of this host restriction factor, which represents an essential step required for efficient viral replication. Conversely, we also observed during infection an HAdV-mediated decrease of KAP1 SUMO moieties, known to promote chromatin decondensation events. Based on our findings, we provide evidence that HAdV induces KAP1 deSUMOylation to minimize epigenetic gene silencing and to promote SUMO modification of E1B-55K by a so far unknown mechanism. IMPORTANCE Here we describe a novel cellular restriction factor for human adenovirus (HAdV) that sheds light on very early modulation processes in viral infection. We reported that chromatin formation and cellular SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling play key roles in HAdV transcriptional regulation. We observed that the cellular chromatin-associated factor and epigenetic reader SPOC1 represses HAdV infection and gene expression. Here, we illustrate the role of the SPOC1-interacting factor KAP1 during productive HAdV growth. KAP1 binds to the viral E1B-55K protein, promoting its SUMO modification, therefore illustrating a crucial step for efficient viral replication. Simultaneously, KAP1 posttranslational modification is dramatically altered during infection. We observed an HAdV-mediated decrease in KAP1 SUMOylation, known to promote chromatin decondensation events. These findings indicate that HAdV induces the loss of KAP1 SUMOylation to minimize epigenetic gene silencing and to promote the SUMO modification of E1B-55K by a so far unknown mechanism.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Adenovirus E4-ORF3 and E1B-55K converge in subverting critical overlapping cellular pathways to facilitate virus replication. Here, we show that E1B-55K and E4-ORF3 induce sumoylation and the assembly of SUMO2/3 viral genome replication domains. Using a conjugation-deficient SUMO2 construct, we demonstrate that SUMO2/3 is recruited to E2A viral genome replication domains through noncovalent interactions. E1B-55K and E4-ORF3 have critical functions in inactivating MRN and ATM to facilitate viral genome replication. We show that ATM kinase inhibitors rescue ΔE1B-55K/ΔE4-ORF3 viral genome replication and that the assembly of E2A domains recruits SUMO2/3 independently of E1B-55K and E4-ORF3. However, the morphology and organization of SUMO2/3-associated E2A domains is strikingly different from that in wild-type Ad5-infected cells. These data reveal that E1B-55K and E4-ORF3 specify the nuclear compartmentalization and structure of SUMO2/3-associated E2A domains, which could have important functions in viral replication. We show that E4-ORF3 specifically targets and sequesters the cellular E3 SUMO ligase PIAS3 but not PIAS1, PIAS2, or PIAS4. The assembly of E4-ORF3 into a multivalent nuclear matrix is required to target PIAS3. In contrast to MRN, PIAS3 is targeted by E4-ORF3 proteins from disparate adenovirus subgroups. Our studies reveal that PIAS3 is a novel and evolutionarily conserved target of E4-ORF3 in human adenovirus infections. Furthermore, we reveal that viral proteins not only disrupt but also usurp SUMO2/3 to transform the nucleus and assemble novel genomic domains that could facilitate pathological viral replication. IMPORTANCE SUMO is a key posttranslational modification that modulates the function, localization, and assembly of protein complexes. In the ever-escalating host-pathogen arms race, viruses have evolved strategies to subvert sumoylation. Adenovirus is a small DNA tumor virus that is a global human pathogen and key biomedical agent in basic research and therapy. We show that adenovirus infection induces global changes in SUMO localization and conjugation. Using virus and SUMO mutants, we demonstrate that E1B-55K and E4-ORF3 disrupt and usurp SUMO2/3 interactions to transform the nucleus and assemble highly structured and compartmentalized viral genome domains. We reveal that the cellular E3 SUMO ligase PIAS3 is a novel and conserved target of E4-ORF3 proteins from disparate adenovirus subgroups. The induction of sumoylation and SUMO2/3 viral replication domains by early viral proteins could play an important role in determining the outcome of viral infection.

Abstract
The transcription accessory factor TIF1γ/TRIM33/RFG7/PTC7/Ectodermin functions as a tumor suppressor that promotes development and cellular differentiation. However, its precise function in cancer has been elusive. In the present study, we report that TIF1γ inactivation causes cells to accumulate chromosomal defects, a hallmark of cancer, due to attenuations in the spindle assembly checkpoint and the post-mitotic checkpoint. TIF1γ deficiency also caused a loss of contact growth inhibition and increased anchorage-independent growth in vitro and in vivo. Clinically, reduced TIF1γ expression in human tumors correlated with an increased rate of genomic rearrangements. Overall, our work indicates that TIF1γ exerts its tumor-suppressive functions in part by promoting chromosomal stability.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Promyelocytic leukemia nuclear bodies (PML-NBs) are nuclear structures that accumulate intrinsic host factors to restrict viral infections. To ensure viral replication, these must be limited by expression of viral early regulatory proteins that functionally inhibit PML-NB-associated antiviral effects. To benefit from the activating capabilities of Sp100A and simultaneously limit repression by Sp100B, -C, and -HMG, adenoviruses (Ads) employ several features to selectively and individually target these isoforms. Ads induce relocalization of Sp100B, -C, and -HMG from PML-NBs prior to association with viral replication centers. In contrast, Sp100A is kept at the PML tracks that surround the newly formed viral replication centers as designated sites of active transcription. We concluded that the host restriction factors Sp100B, -C, and -HMG are potentially inactivated by active displacement from these sites, whereas Sp100A is retained to amplify Ad gene expression. Ad-dependent loss of Sp100 SUMOylation is another crucial part of the virus repertoire to counteract intrinsic immunity by circumventing Sp100 association with HP1, therefore limiting chromatin condensation. We provide evidence that Ad selectively counteracts antiviral responses and, at the same time, benefits from PML-NB-associated components which support viral gene expression by actively recruiting them to PML track-like structures. Our findings provide insights into novel strategies for manipulating transcriptional regulation to either inactivate or amplify viral gene expression. IMPORTANCE We describe an adenoviral evasion strategy that involves isoform-specific and active manipulation of the PML-associated restriction factor Sp100. Recently, we reported that the adenoviral transactivator E1A targets PML-II to efficiently activate viral transcription. In contrast, the PML-associated proteins Daxx and ATRX are inhibited by early viral factors. We show that this concept is more intricate and significant than originally believed, since adenoviruses apparently take advantage of specific PML-NB-associated proteins and simultaneously inhibit antiviral measures to maintain the viral infectious program. Specifically, we observed Ad-induced relocalization of the Sp100 isoforms B, C, and HMG from PML-NBs juxtaposed with viral replication centers. In contrast, Sp100A is retained at Ad-induced PML tracks that surround the newly formed viral replication centers, acting as designated sites of active transcription. The host restriction factors Sp100B, -C, and -HMG are potentially inactivated by active displacement from these sites, whereas Sp100A is retained to amplify Ad gene expression.

The Mre11 Cellular Protein Is Modified by Conjugation of Both SUMO-1 and SUMO-2/3 during Adenovirus Infection. ACTA ACUST UNITED AC 2014.

Abstract
The adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) E1B 55 kDa and E4 Orf6 proteins assemble a Cullin 5-E3 ubiquitin (Ub) ligase that targets, among other cellular proteins, p53 and the Mre11-Rad50-Nbs1 (MRN) complex for degradation. The latter is also inhibited by the E4 Orf3 protein, which promotes the recruitment of Mre11 into specific nuclear sites to promote viral DNA replication. The activities associated with the E1B 55 kDa and E4 Orf6 viral proteins depend mostly on the assembly of this E3-Ub ligase. However, E1B 55 kDa can also function as an E3-SUMO ligase, suggesting not only that regulation of cellular proteins by these viral early proteins may depend on polyubiquitination and proteasomal degradation but also that SUMOylation of target proteins may play a key role in their activities. Since Mre11 is a target of both the E1B/E4 Orf6 complex and E4 Orf3, we decided to determine whether Mre11 displayed similar properties to those of other cellular targets, in Ad5-infected cells. We have found that during Ad5-infection, Mre11 is modified by SUMO-1 and SUMO-2/3 conjugation. Unexpectedly, SUMOylation of Mre11 is not exclusively dependent on E1B 55 kDa, E4 Orf6, or E4 Orf3, rather it seems to be influenced by a molecular interplay that involves each of these viral early proteins.

Abstract
Background Avian influenza A (AI) viruses of subtypes H5 can cause serious disease outbreaks in poultry including panzootic due to H5N1 highly pathogenic (HP) viruses. These viruses are a threat not only for animal health but also public health due to their zoonotic potential. The domestic duck plays a major role in the epidemiological cycle of influenza virus subtypes H5 but little is known concerning host/pathogen interactions during influenza infection in duck species. In this study, a subtracted library from duck trachea (a primary site of influenza virus infection) was constructed to analyse and compare the host response after a highly or low pathogenic (LP) H5N1-infection. Results Here, we show that more than 200 different genes were differentially expressed in infected duck trachea to a significant degree. In addition, significant differentially expressed genes between LPAI- and HPAI-infected tracheas were observed. Gene ontology annotation was used and specific signalling pathways were identified. These pathways were different for LPAI and HPAI-infected tracheas, except for the CXCR4 signalling pathway which is implicated in immune response. A different modulation of genes in the CXCR4 signalling pathway and TRIM33 was induced in duck tracheas infected with a HPAI- or a LPAI-H5N1. Conclusion First, this study indicates that Suppressive Subtractive Hybridization (SSH) is an alternative approach to gain insights into the pathogenesis of influenza infection in ducks. Secondly, the results indicate that cellular gene expression in the duck trachea was differently modulated after infection with a LPAI-H5N1 or after infection with a HPAI-H5N1 virus. Such difference found in infected trachea, a primary infection site, could precede continuation of infection and could explain appearance of respiratory symptoms or not.

Abstract
PML nuclear bodies (PML NBs), also called ND10, are matrix-bound nuclear structures that have been implicated in a variety of functions, including DNA repair, transcriptional regulation, protein degradation, and tumor suppression. These domains are also known for their potential to mediate an intracellular defense mechanism against many virus types. This is likely why they are targeted and subsequently manipulated by numerous viral proteins. Paradoxically, the genomes of various DNA viruses become associated with PML NBs, and initial sites of viral transcription/replication centers are often juxtaposed to these domains. The question is why viruses start their transcription and replication next to their supposed antagonists. Here, we report that PML NBs are targeted by the adenoviral (Ad) transactivator protein E1A-13S. Alternatively spliced E1A isoforms (E1A-12S and E1A-13S) are the first proteins expressed upon Ad infection. E1A-13S is essential for activating viral transcription in the early phase of infection. Coimmunoprecipitation assays showed that E1A-13S preferentially interacts with only one (PML-II) of at least six nuclear human PML isoforms. Deletion mapping located the interaction site within E1A conserved region 3 (CR3), which was previously described as the transcription factor binding region of E1A-13S. Indeed, cooperation with PML-II enhanced E1A-mediated transcriptional activation, while deleting the SUMO-interacting motif (SIM) of PML proved even more effective. Our results suggest that in contrast to PML NB-associated antiviral defense, PML-II may help transactivate viral gene expression and therefore play a novel role in activating Ad transcription during the early viral life cycle.

Abstract
It is clear that a number of host-cell factors facilitate virus replication and, conversely, a number of other factors possess inherent antiviral activity. Research, particularly over the last decade or so, has revealed that there is a complex inter-relationship between viral infection and the host-cell DNA-damage response and repair pathways. There is now a realization that viruses can selectively activate and/or repress specific components of these host-cell pathways in a temporally coordinated manner, in order to promote virus replication. Thus, some viruses, such as simian virus 40, require active DNA-repair pathways for optimal virus replication, whereas others, such as adenovirus, go to considerable lengths to inactivate some pathways. Although there is ever-increasing molecular insight into how viruses interact with host-cell damage pathways, the precise molecular roles of these pathways in virus life cycles is not well understood. The object of this review is to consider how DNA viruses have evolved to manage the function of three principal DNA damage-response pathways controlled by the three phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)-related protein kinases ATM, ATR and DNA-PK and to explore further how virus interactions with these pathways promote virus replication.

Abstract
The early region 4 open reading frame 3 protein (E4-ORF3; UniProt ID P04489) is the most highly conserved of all adenovirus-encoded gene products at the amino acid level. A conserved attribute of the E4-ORF3 proteins of different human adenoviruses is the ability to disrupt PML nuclear bodies from their normally punctate appearance into heterogeneous filamentous structures. This E4-ORF3 activity correlates with the inhibition of PML-mediated antiviral activity. The mechanism of E4-ORF3-mediated reorganization of PML nuclear bodies is unknown. Biophysical analysis of the purified WT E4-ORF3 protein revealed an ordered secondary/tertiary structure and the ability to form heterogeneous higher-order multimers in solution. Importantly, a nonfunctional E4-ORF3 mutant protein, L103A, forms a stable dimer with WT secondary structure content. Because the L103A mutant is incapable of PML reorganization, this result suggests that higher-order multimerization of E4-ORF3 may be required for the activity of the protein. In support of this hypothesis, we demonstrate that the E4-ORF3 L103A mutant protein acts as a dominant-negative effector when coexpressed with the WT E4-ORF3 in mammalian cells. It prevents WT E4-ORF3-mediated PML track formation presumably by binding to the WT protein and inhibiting the formation of higher-order multimers. In vitro protein binding studies support this conclusion as demonstrated by copurification of coexpressed WT and L103A proteins in Escherichia coli and coimmunoprecipitation of WT·L103A E4-ORF3 complexes in mammalian cells. These results provide new insight into the properties of the Ad E4-ORF3 protein and suggest that higher-order protein multimerization is essential for E4-ORF3 activity.

Abstract
Human adenovirus type 5 (HAdV5) E4orf6 (early region 4 open reading frame 6 protein) is a multifunctional early viral protein promoting efficient replication and progeny production. E4orf6 complexes with E1B-55K to assemble cellular proteins into a functional E3 ubiquitin ligase complex that not only mediates proteasomal degradation of host cell substrates but also facilitates export of viral late mRNA to promote efficient viral protein expression and host cell shutoff. Recent findings defined the role of E4orf6 in RNA splicing independent of E1B-55K binding. To reveal further functions of the early viral protein in infected cells, we used a yeast two-hybrid system and identified the homeobox transcription factor HoxB7 as a novel E4orf6-associated protein. Using a HoxB7 knockdown cell line, we observed a positive role of HoxB7 in adenoviral replication. Our experiments demonstrate that the absence of HoxB7 leads to inefficient viral progeny production, as HAdV5 gene expression is highly regulated by HoxB7-mediated activation of various adenoviral promoters. We have thus identified a novel role of E4orf6 in HAdV5 gene transcription via regulation of homeobox protein-dependent modulation of viral promoter activity.
