Differential time-restricted sensitivity of enveloped viruses to Sec61 translocon blockade
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
Abstract The morphogenesis of enveloped viruses relies on the trafficking of transmembrane proteins through the secretory pathway to sites of virus envelopment. The first step in this pathway, their translocation into the endoplasmic reticulum, is therefore an attractive target for broad-spectrum intervention. Here, we tested if blockade of the Sec61 translocon by the Mycobacterium ulcerans exotoxin mycolactone, a potent inhibitor of Sec61, could block the production of virus glycoproteins and subsequent production of infectious virus from a range of human enveloped viruses: the DNA virus herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV1), and the RNA viruses, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), influenza A virus (IAV), SARS coronavirus 2 (SARS CoV2) and Zika virus (ZIKV). In line with known translocation mechanisms, mycolactone blocked in vitro translocation and ectopic expression of type I transmembrane proteins but not type III, multipass or cytosolic proteins. Translocation of the type II protein RSV G was also blocked and although ectopically expressed G protein was detected, it was not glycosylated. Pretreatment of cells with mycolactone also blocked the synthesis of type I transmembrane proteins in infected cells and either the synthesis or glycosylation of type II transmembrane proteins, and the production of progeny from all viruses tested, while having no effect on virus entry or downstream synthesis of cytosolic proteins. While mycolactone treatment of HSV1 infected cells at various times after infection resulted in the immediate inhibition of virus production at the point of addition, IAV, RSV and ZIKV became resistant to the action of mycolactone surprisingly early in infection, and before virus glycoprotein synthesis was even detectable or virus production had begun. We therefore conclude that although inhibition of the translocation of virus transmembrane proteins through the Sec61 translocon can in principle block virus production, the morphogenesis of many enveloped RNA viruses requires only limited amounts of envelope proteins for successful propagation, providing novel insight into the biology of these viruses. Author Summary Many circulating human pathogens are enveloped viruses that all use the cellular secretory pathway to target their envelope proteins to cellular sites of virus particle assembly. The potential to target this pathway could therefore offer a novel broad-spectrum therapy for existing, emerging and as yet unknown human pathogens. Here we have targeted the initial step in this pathway using a highly potent Sec61 inhibitor, mycolactone, to carry out the first comprehensive assessment of translocation disruption on a range of enveloped human viruses from different virus families, including herpes simplex virus, influenza A virus and SARS-CoV2. Our results have shown that Sec61 inhibition blocks the onward trafficking of many virus envelope proteins that are essential to produce infectious virus at assembly sites. However, unexpectedly, we found that several of the viruses were resistant to the effects of this toxin when it was added early in infection, indicating that the synthesis of these essential virus proteins occurs earlier in infection than previously recognised. Hence, while this approach may not be suitable as a broad intervention strategy, it has revealed new information on virus biology and provides us with a novel tool for exploring a wide range of enveloped viruses.

Prédiction machine sur la base complète
Imitation des enseignantsNi prévalence calibrée, ni vérité terrain. Validation humaine à venir. Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
