HIV integrates into the host genome to create a persistent viral reservoir. Stimulation of CD4+ memory T lymphocytes with common γc-chain cytokines renders these cells more susceptible infection, making them key component reservoir itself. IL-15 is up-regulated during primary time when established. Therefore, we investigated molecular and cellular impact on T-cell infection. We found that stimulation induces SAM domain HD domain-containing protein 1 (SAMHD1) phosphorylation due cell cycle entry, relieving an early block Perturbation pathways downstream receptor (IL-15R) indicated SAMHD1 after JAK dependent.

Despite the fact that great efforts have been made in prevention and resistance of HIV-1 infection, HIV-1/AIDS remains a major threat to global human health. Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) can suppress virus replication, but it cannot eradicate latent viral reservoirs patients. Recently, clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated nuclease 9 (Cas9) system has engineered as an effective gene-editing technology with potential treat HIV-1/AIDS. It be used target cellular co-factors or genome reduce infection clear provirus, well induce transcriptional activation for elimination. This versatile gene editing successfully applied reduction cells animal models. Here, we update rapid progress CRISPR/Cas9-based research recent years discuss limitations future perspectives its application.

Abstract All life forms defend their genome against DNA invasion. Eukaryotic cells recognize incoming and limit its transcription through repressive chromatin modifications. The human silencing hub (HUSH) complex transcriptionally represses long interspersed element-1 retrotransposons (L1s) retroviruses histone H3 lysine 9 trimethylation (H3K9me3) 1–3 . How HUSH recognizes initiates of these invading genetic elements is unknown. Here we show that able to repress a broad range long, intronless transgenes. Intron insertion into HUSH-repressed transgenes counteracts repression, even in the absence intron splicing. binds transcripts from target locus, prior independent H3K9me3 deposition, essential for both initiation propagation HUSH-mediated H3K9me3. Genomic data reveal how subset endogenous genes generated retrotransposition cellular mRNAs. Thus cDNA—the hallmark reverse transcription—provides versatile way distinguish retroelements host enables protect ‘non-self’ DNA, despite there being no previous exposure element. Our findings existence transcription-dependent genome-surveillance system explain it provides immediate protection newly acquired while avoiding inappropriate repression genes.

Interferon (IFN) inhibits HIV replication by inducing antiviral effectors. To comprehensively identify IFN-induced restriction factors, we assembled a CRISPR sgRNA library of Stimulated Genes (ISGs) into modified lentiviral vector that allows for packaging sgRNA-encoding genomes in trans budding HIV-1 particles. We observed knockout Zinc Antiviral Protein (ZAP) improved the performance screen due to ZAP-mediated inhibition vector. A small panel including MxB, IFITM1, Tetherin/BST2 and TRIM5alpha together explain inhibitory effects IFN on CXCR4-tropic strain, HIV-1LAI, THP-1 cells. second with CCR5-tropic primary HIV-1Q23.BG505, described an overlapping, but non-identical, factors.

Abstract The Human Silencing Hub (HUSH) complex is necessary for epigenetic repression of LINE-1 elements. We show that HUSH-depletion in human cell lines and primary fibroblasts leads to induction interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) through JAK/STAT signaling. This effect mainly attributed MDA5 RIG-I sensing double-stranded RNAs (dsRNAs). coincides with upregulation primate-conserved LINE-1s, as well increased expression full-length hominid-specific LINE-1s produce bidirectional RNAs, which may form dsRNA. Notably, LTRs nearby ISGs are derepressed likely rendering these more responsive interferon. shRNAs can abrogate the HUSH-dependent response, while overexpression an engineered construct activates interferon Finally, we HUSH component, MPP8 frequently downregulated diverse cancers its depletion DNA damage. These results suggest drive physiological or autoinflammatory responses dsRNA gene-regulatory roles controlled by complex.
