Abstract
The HIV-1 assembly process begins with a newly synthesized Gag polyprotein being targeted to the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane of the infected cells to form immature viral particles. Gag-membrane interactions are mediated through the myristoylated (Myr) N-terminal matrix (MA) domain of Gag, which eventually multimerize on the membrane to form trimers and higher order oligomers. The study of the structure and dynamics of peripheral membrane proteins like MA has been challenging for both experimental and computational studies due to the complex transient dynamics of protein-membrane interactions. Although the roles of anionic phospholipids (PIP2, PS) and the Myr group in the membrane targeting and stable membrane binding of MA are now well-established, the cooperative interactions between the MA monomers and MA-membrane remain elusive in the context of viral assembly and release. Our present study focuses on the membrane binding dynamics of a higher order oligomeric structure of MA protein (a dimer of trimers), which has not been explored before. Employing time-lagged independent component analysis (tICA) to our microsecond-long trajectories, we investigate conformational changes of the matrix protein induced by membrane binding. Interestingly, the Myr switch of an MA monomer correlates with the conformational switch of adjacent monomers in the same trimer. Together, our findings suggest complex protein dynamics during the formation of the immature HIV-1 lattice; while MA trimerization facilitates Myr insertion, MA trimer-trimer interactions in the immature lattice can hinder the same.

Abstract
Although the structural rearrangement of the membrane-bound matrix (MA) protein trimers upon HIV-1 maturation has been reported, the consequences of MA maturation on the MA-lipid interactions are not well understood. Long-timescale molecular dynamics simulations of the MA multimeric assemblies of immature and mature virus particles with our realistic asymmetric membrane model have explored MA-lipid interactions and lateral organization of lipids around MA complexes. The number of stable MA-phosphatidylserine and MA-phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) interactions at the trimeric interface of the mature MA complex is observed to be greater compared to that of the immature MA complex. Our simulations identified an alternative PIP2-binding site in the immature MA complex where the multivalent headgroup of a PIP2 lipid with a greater negative charge binds to multiple basic amino acid residues such as ARG3 residues of both the MA monomers at the trimeric interface and highly basic region (HBR) residues (LYS29, LYS31) of one of the MA monomers. Our enhanced sampling simulations have explored the conformational space of phospholipids at different binding sites of the trimer-trimer interface of MA complexes that are not accessible by conventional unbiased molecular dynamics. Unlike the immature MA complex, the 2' acyl tail of two PIP2 lipids at the trimeric interface of the mature MA complex is observed to sample stable binding pockets of MA consisting of helix-4 residues. Together, our results provide molecular-level insights into the interactions of MA trimeric complexes with membrane and different lipid conformations at the specific binding sites of MA protein before and after viral maturation.

EUROPEAN BIOPHYSICS JOURNAL : EBJ 2024; 53:57-67.

Abstract
The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) matrix protein contains a highly basic region, MA-HBR, crucial for various stages of viral replication. To elucidate the interactions between the polybasic peptide MA-HBR and lipid bilayers, we employed liquid-based atomic force microscopy (AFM) imaging and force spectroscopy on lipid bilayers of differing compositions. In 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC) bilayers, AFM imaging revealed the formation of annulus-shaped protrusions upon exposure to the polybasic peptide, accompanied by distinctive mechanical responses characterized by enhanced bilayer puncture forces. Importantly, our AFM-based force spectroscopy measurements unveiled that MA-HBR induces interleaflet decoupling within the cohesive bilayer organization. This is evidenced by a force discontinuity observed within the bilayer's elastic deformation regime. In POPC/cholesterol bilayers, MA-HBR caused similar yet smaller annular protrusions, demonstrating an intriguing interplay with cholesterol-rich membranes. In contrast, in bilayers containing anionic 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-L-serine (POPS) lipids, MA-HBR induced unique annular protrusions, granular nanoparticles, and nanotubules, showcasing its distinctive effects in anionic lipid-enriched environments. Notably, our force spectroscopy data revealed that anionic POPS lipids weakened interleaflet adhesion within the bilayer, resulting in interleaflet decoupling, which potentially contributes to the specific bilayer perturbations induced by MA-HBR. Collectively, our findings highlight the remarkable variations in how the polybasic peptide, MA-HBR, interacts with lipid bilayers of differing compositions, shedding light on its role in host membrane restructuring during HIV-1 infection.

Abstract
During the HIV-1 assembly process, the Gag polyprotein multimerizes at the producer cell plasma membrane, resulting in the formation of spherical immature virus particles. Gag-genomic RNA (gRNA) interactions play a crucial role in the multimerization process, which is yet to be fully understood. We performed large-scale all-atom molecular dynamics simulations of membrane-bound full-length Gag dimer, hexamer, and 18-mer. The inter-domain dynamic correlation of Gag, quantified by the heterogeneous elastic network model applied to the simulated trajectories, is observed to be altered by implicit gRNA binding, as well as the multimerization state of the Gag. The lateral dynamics of our simulated membrane-bound Gag proteins, with and without gRNA binding, agree with prior experimental data and help to validate our simulation models and methods. The gRNA binding is observed to affect mainly the SP1 domain of the 18-mer and the matrix-capsid linker domain of the hexamer. In the absence of gRNA binding, the independent dynamical motion of the nucleocapsid domain results in a collapsed state of the dimeric Gag. Unlike stable SP1 helices in the six-helix bundle, without IP6 binding, the SP1 domain undergoes a spontaneous helix-to-coil transition in the dimeric Gag. Together, our findings reveal conformational switches of Gag at different stages of the multimerization process and predict that the gRNA binding reinforces an efficient binding surface of Gag for multimerization, and also regulates the dynamic organization of the local membrane region itself.

Abstract
Although the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 lipid envelope has been reported to be enriched with host cell sphingomyelin and cholesterol, the molecular mechanism of the enrichment is not well understood. Viral Gag protein plays a central role in virus budding. Here, we report the interaction between Gag and host cell lipids using different quantitative and super-resolution microscopy techniques in combination with specific probes that bind endogenous sphingomyelin and cholesterol. Our results indicate that Gag in the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane colocalizes with the outer leaflet sphingomyelin-rich domains and cholesterol-rich domains, enlarges sphingomyelin-rich domains, and strongly restricts the mobility of sphingomyelin-rich domains. Moreover, Gag multimerization induces sphingomyelin-rich and cholesterol-rich lipid domains to be in close proximity in a curvature-dependent manner. Our study suggests that Gag binds, coalesces, and reorganizes pre-existing lipid domains during assembly.

Abstract
Galectin-3 (GAL3) is a β-galactoside-binding lectin expressed in CD4 T cells infected with human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1). GAL3 promotes HIV-1 budding by associating with ALIX and Gag p6. GAL3 has been shown to localize in membrane lipid rafts in dendritic cells and positively regulate cell migration. HIV-1 spreads between T cells by forming supramolecular structures (virological synapses [VSs]), whose integrity depends on lipid rafts. Here, we addressed the potential role of GAL3 in cell-to-cell transmission of HIV-1 in CD4 T cells. GAL3 expressed in donor cells was more important for facilitating HIV-1 cell-to-cell transfer than GAL3 expressed in target cells. GAL3 was found to be co-transferred with Gag from HIV-1-positive donor to HIV-1-negative target T cells. HIV-1 infection induced translocation of GAL3 together with Gag to the cell-cell interfaces and colocalize with GM1, where GAL3 facilitated VS formation. GAL3 regulated the coordinated transfer of Gag and flotillin-1 into plasma membrane fractions. Finally, depletion of GAL3 reduced the cholesterol levels in membrane lipid rafts in CD4 T cells. These findings provide evidence that endogenous GAL3 stimulates lipid raft components and facilitates intercellular HIV-1 transfer among CD4 T cells, offering another pathway by which GAL3 regulates HIV-1 infection. These findings may inform the treatment of HIV-1 infection based on targeting GAL3 to modulate lipid rafts.

Abstract
During the late stages of the HIV-1 lifecycle, immature virions are produced by the concerted activity of Gag polyproteins, primarily mediated by the capsid (CA) and spacer peptide 1 (SP1) domains, which assemble into a spherical lattice, package viral genomic RNA, and deform the plasma membrane. Recently, inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6) has been identified as an essential assembly cofactor that efficiently produces both immature virions in vivo and immature virus-like particles in vitro. To date, however, several distinct mechanistic roles for IP6 have been proposed on the basis of independent functional, structural, and kinetic studies. In this work, we investigate the molecular influence of IP6 on the structural outcomes and dynamics of CA/SP1 assembly using coarse-grained (CG) molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and free energy calculations. Here, we derive a bottom-up, low-resolution, and implicit-solvent CG model of CA/SP1 and IP6, and simulate their assembly under conditions that emulate both in vitro and in vivo systems. Our analysis identifies IP6 as an assembly accelerant that promotes curvature generation and fissure-like defects throughout the lattice. Our findings suggest that IP6 induces kinetically trapped immature morphologies, which may be physiologically important for later stages of viral morphogenesis and potentially useful for virus-like particle technologies.

Abstract
The packaging and budding of Gag polyprotein and viral RNA is a critical step in the HIV-1 life cycle. High-resolution structures of the Gag polyprotein have revealed that the capsid (CA) and spacer peptide 1 (SP1) domains contain important interfaces for Gag self-assembly. However, the molecular details of the multimerization process, especially in the presence of RNA and the cell membrane, have remained unclear. In this work, we investigate the mechanisms that work in concert between the polyproteins, RNA, and membrane to promote immature lattice growth. We develop a coarse-grained (CG) computational model that is derived from subnanometer resolution structural data. Our simulations recapitulate contiguous and hexameric lattice assembly driven only by weak anisotropic attractions at the helical CA-SP1 junction. Importantly, analysis from CG and single-particle tracking photoactivated localization (spt-PALM) trajectories indicates that viral RNA and the membrane are critical constituents that actively promote Gag multimerization through scaffolding, while overexpression of short competitor RNA can suppress assembly. We also find that the CA amino-terminal domain imparts intrinsic curvature to the Gag lattice. As a consequence, immature lattice growth appears to be coupled to the dynamics of spontaneous membrane deformation. Our findings elucidate a simple network of interactions that regulate the early stages of HIV-1 assembly and budding.

Abstract
HIV-1 recruits cellular endosomal sorting complexes required for transport (ESCRTs) to bud virions from the membrane. Disruption of the viral nucleocapsid (NC) domain integrity affects HIV-1 budding. However, the molecular mechanisms of NC's involvement in HIV budding remain unclear. We find that NC mimics the PDZ domains of syntenin, a membrane-binding adaptor involved in cell-to-cell contact/communication, to capture the Bro1 domain of ALIX, which is an ESCRTs recruiting cellular adaptor. NC binds membranes via basic residues in either the distal or proximal zinc fingers, and NC-membrane binding is essential for Bro1 capture and HIV-1 budding. Removal of RNA enhances NC membrane binding, suggesting a dynamic competition between membrane lipids and RNA for the same binding sites in NC. Remarkably, syntenin PDZ can substitute for NC function in HIV-1 budding. Thus, NC mimics syntenin PDZs to function as a membrane-binding adaptor critical for HIV-1 budding at specific microdomains of the membrane.

Abstract
Viruses have evolved many mechanisms by which to evade and subvert the immune system to ensure survival and persistence. However, for each method undertaken by the immune system for pathogen removal, there is a counteracting mechanism utilized by pathogens. The new and emerging role of microvesicles in immune intercellular communication and function is no different. Viruses across many different families have evolved to insert viral components in exosomes, a subtype of microvesicle, with many varying downstream effects. When assessed cumulatively, viral antigens in exosomes increase persistence through cloaking viral genomes, decoying the immune system, and even by increasing viral infection in uninfected cells. Exosomes therefore represent a source of viral antigen that can be used as a biomarker for disease and targeted for therapy in the control and eradication of these disorders. With the rise in the persistence of new and reemerging viruses like Ebola and Zika, exploring the role of exosomes become more important than ever.
