Host and Viral Factors Involved in Nuclear Egress of Herpes Simplex Virus 1 viruses Review Host and Viral Factors Involved in Nuclear Egress of Herpes Simplex Virus 1 Jun Arii Division of Clinical Virology, Center for Infectious Diseases, Kobe University Graduate School of Medicine, Kobe, Hyogo 650-0017, Japan; [email protected]; Tel.: +81-78-382-6272 Abstract: Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) replicates its genome and packages it into capsids within the nucleus. HSV-1 has evolved a complex mechanism of nuclear egress whereby nascent capsids bud on the inner nuclear membrane to form perinuclear virions that subsequently fuse with the outer nuclear membrane, releasing capsids into the cytosol. The viral-encoded nuclear egress complex (NEC) plays a crucial role in this vesicle-mediated nucleocytoplasmic transport. Nevertheless, similar system mediates the movement of other cellular macromolecular complexes in normal cells. Therefore, HSV-1 may utilize viral proteins to hijack the cellular machinery in order to facilitate capsid transport. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms underlying this phenomenon. This review summarizes our current understanding of the cellular and viral factors involved in the nuclear egress of HSV-1 capsids.

Overview of Nuclear Egress of Herpesviruses 2. Overview of Nuclear Egress of Herpesviruses Herpesviruses are enveloped double-stranded DNA viruses that establish lifelong Herpesviruses are enveloped double-stranded DNA viruses that establish lifelong latent infections in their natural hosts [7]. The Herpesviridae family is subdivided into the latent infections in their natural hosts [7]. The Herpesviridae family is subdivided into the Alphaherpesvirinae, Betaherpesvirinae, and Gammaherpesvirinae subfamilies, based on their Alphaherpesvirinae, Betaherpesvirinae, and Gammaherpesvirinae subfamilies, based on their molecular and biological properties [7]. HSV-1 is the prototype of the alphaherpesvirus molecular and biological properties [7]. HSV-1 is the prototype of the alphaherpesvirus subfamily, which is comprised of the most common pathogenic agents in humans, and subfamily,causes a variety which of is conditions comprised such of the as mucocutaneousmost common pathogenic disease, keratitis, agents skinin humans, disease and and causesencephalitis a variety [8]. of Herpesviruses conditions such share as amucocu commontaneous virion disease, structure keratitis, and similar skin proliferationdisease and encephalitisstrategies.

In the cytoplasm, nucleocapsids bud into vesicles derived from trans-Golgi networks or endosomes in a process called ‘secondary envelopment’. Finally, enveloped virions are released from the cells through an exocytotic pathway [5]. This envelopment/de-envelopment model of herpesvirus egress is now generally accepted and appears to be the dominant mechanism employed by this virus. However, other routes have been proposed. For example, capsids may be transported concomitantly with nuclear envelope breakdown in certain situations [9]. It has also been reported that capsids may egress from the nucleus through defective nuclear pores [10,11]. 3. The Nuclear Egress Complex (NEC) The NEC is composed of the conserved viral proteins UL31 and UL34 and plays a crucial role in the nucleocytoplasmic transport of newly assembled nucleocapsids [5,12]. In the absence of either protein, capsids do not bud at the INM and instead accumulate inside the nucleus [13–18]. UL34

The influenza A virus genome consists of eight single-stranded RNA segments sequestered within a protein capsid and a lipid bilayer envelope. During host cell entry, cellular cues contribute to viral conformational changes that promote critical events such as fusion with late endosomes, capsid uncoating and viral genome release into the cytosol. In this focused review, we concisely describe the virus infection cycle and highlight the recent findings of host cell pathways and cytosolic proteins that assist influenza uncoating during host cell entry.

    DETERMINING FACTOR IN THE CAPACITY OF ROUS SARCOMA VIRUS TO INDUCE TUMORS IN MAMMALS* By HIDESABURO HANAFUSA AND TERUKO HANAFUSA COLLMGE DE FRANCE, LABORATOIRE DE MIDECINE EXPARIMENTALE, PARIS Communidated by Ahdre Lwoff, January 24, 1966 Since Zilber and Kriukoval and Svet-Moldavsky' demonstrated that some strains of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) are capable of inducing hemorrhagic cysts or sarcomas in newborn rats, numerous attempts have been made to induce tumors by RSVin various species of mammals.3-9 One of the remarkable aspects revealed by these investigations is the strain differences in RSV for this capacity.6-9 Certain strains, such as the Schmidt-Ruppin strain, are active, while others, such as the Bryan strain, are generally inactive in mammals. The cause of such strain differ- ences has not been elucidated. Our previous studies have shown that the Bryan high-titer strain of RSV is a defective virus which cannot reproduce without the help of any one of the avian leukosis viruses.'0 The defectiveness derives from the inability of this strain of RSV to induce the synthesis of its own viral envelope."I An essential role played by the helper virus is to provide the envelope to the RSV genome, whose replica- tion occurs in the infected cells without the aid of helper virus. Thus, several properties of RSV which presumably depend in some way on the character of the viral envelope are controlled by the helper virus used to activate the RSV.11-13 These properties include the antigenicity, the sensitivity to the interference induced by the helper virus, and the host range among genetically different chick embryos.

Abstract: Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a novel epidemic strain of Betacoronavirus that is responsible for the current viral pandemic, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID- 19), a global health crisis. Other epidemic Betacoronaviruses include the 2003 SARS-CoV-1 and the 2009 Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV), the genomes of which, particularly that of SARS-CoV-1, are similar to that of the 2019 SARS-CoV-2. In this extensive review, we document the most recent information on Coronavirus proteins, with emphasis on the membrane proteins in the Coronaviridae family. We include information on their structures, functions, and participation in pathogenesis. While the shared proteins among the different coronaviruses may vary in structure and function, they all seem to be multifunctional, a common theme interconnecting these viruses. Many transmembrane proteins encoded within the SARS-CoV-2 genome play important roles in the infection cycle while others have functions yet to be understood. We compare the various structural and nonstructural proteins within the Coronaviridae family to elucidate potential overlaps Citation: Wong, N.A.; Saier, M.H., Jr.

One limitation to using virions is that the antigen abundance is determined by the content of each protein in the virus. This caveat especially applies to viral-based influenza vaccines where the low abundance of the neuraminidase (NA) surface antigen remains a bottleneck for improving the NA antibody response. Here, we used the WHO recommended H1N1 antigens (2019-2020 season) in a systematic analysis to demonstrate that the NA to hemagglutinin (HA) ratio in virions can be improved by exchanging the viral backbone internal genes, thereby preserving the antigens. The purified inactivated virions with higher NA content show a more spherical morphology, a different balance between the HA receptor binding and NA receptor release functions, and induce a better NA inhibitory antibody response in mice.

    The Journal of Immunology Human Cytomegalovirus Envelope Glycoproteins B and H Are Necessary for TLR2 Activation in Permissive Cells1 Karl W. Boehme,* Mario Guerrero,*† and Teresa Compton2*† Human CMV (HCMV) is a ubiquitous member of the Herpesviridae family and an opportunistic pathogen that poses significant health risks for immunocompromised patients. HCMV pathogenesis is intimately tied to the immune status of the host, thus characterization of the innate immune response to HCMV infection is critical for understanding disease progression. Previously, we identified TLR2 as a host factor that detects and initiates inflammatory cytokine secretion in response to HCMV independent of viral replication. In this study, we show that two entry-mediating envelope gp, gp B (gB) and gp H (gH), display determinants recognized by TLR2. Neutralizing Abs against TLR2, gB and gH inhibit inflammatory cytokine responses to HCMV infection, suggesting that inflammatory cytokine stimulation by HCMV is mediated by interactions between these envelope gp and TLR2. Furthermore, both gB and gH coimmunoprecipitate with TLR2 and TLR1, indicating that these envelope gp directly interact with TLR2 and that a TLR2/TLR1 heterodimer is a functional sensor for HCMV. Because our previous studies were conducted in model cell lines, we also show that TLR2 is expressed by HCMV permissive human fibroblast cell strains, and that TLR2 is a functional sensor in these cells. This study further elucidates the importance and potency of envelope gp as a class of molecules displaying pathogen-associated molecular patterns that are recognized with immediate kinetics by TLRs in permissive cells.
