veterinary sciences Review Interplay between RNA Viruses and Promyelocytic Leukemia Nuclear Bodies Sabari Nath Neerukonda † Department of Animal and Food and Sciences, University of Delaware, Newark, DE 19716, USA; [email protected] † Current Address: Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Silver Spring, MD 20993, USA. Abstract: Promyelocytic leukemia nuclear bodies (PML NBs) are nuclear membrane-less sub struc- tures that play a critical role in diverse cellular pathways including cell proliferation, DNA damage, apoptosis, transcriptional regulation, stem cell renewal, alternative lengthening of telomeres, chro- matin organization, epigenetic regulation, protein turnover, autophagy, intrinsic and innate antiviral immunity. While intrinsic and innate immune functions of PML NBs or PML NB core proteins are well defined in the context of nuclear replicating DNA viruses, several studies also confirm their substantial roles in the context of RNA viruses. In the present review, antiviral activities of PML NBs or its core proteins on diverse RNA viruses that replicate in cytoplasm or the nucleus were discussed. In addition, viral counter mechanisms that reorganize PML NBs, and specifically how viruses usurp PML NB functions in order to create a cellular environment favorable for replication and pathogenesis, are also discussed.

Introduction doi.org/10.3390/vetsci8040057 Promyelocytic leukemia (PML) nuclear bodies (NBs) are observed as 5–30 membrane- less, nuclear matrix-associated, interchromatin speckles with a diameter of 0.1–2 µm in Academic Editor: Daniel Moura a majority of mammalian cell types [1]. Depending upon the cell type, cell cycle phase, de Aguiar and the physiological state, PML NB size, number and localization can vary [2]. The main scaffold protein of PML NBs is the PML protein, which belongs to the TRIM (TRIpartite Received: 18 February 2021 Accepted: 30 March 2021 Motif) family of proteins that are characterized by the presence of a highly conserved RBCC Published: 31 March 2021 motif made of tandemly arranged RING finger domain (R), cysteine-histidine rich B box domains (B1/B2) and an alpha-helical coiled coil domain (CC) (Figure1A) [ 2,3].

PML NB formation involves covalent disulphide linkage of oxidized PML monomers and non-covalent interactions between RBCC domains leading to multimeric oligomeriza- tion to form a PML NB outer shell [11–13]. RBCC oligomerization triggers the recruitment of Ubc9, a SUMO E2 conjugating enzyme that SUMOylates PML, leading to further PML– PML interactions via SUMO-SIM interactions [14]. Furthermore, SUMOylated PML recruits SIM-containing client proteins into an NB inner core via SUMO-SIM interactions, ultimately resulting in liquid–liquid phase separation into mature PML NBs (Figure1B) [ 2]. Mature PML NBs therefore serve as SUMOylation hotspots, but can also promote other mod- ifications such as phosphorylation, acetylation, methylation, ubiquitination, or protein degradation. PML SUMOylation is essential for mature NB formation and functions; PML mutants deficient of SUMOylation (3KR) or SIM interactions (DSIM) still form PML NBs exactly as wild type (WT) PML, although 3KR failed to recruit key PML NB interaction partners Sp100 and Daxx [15,16]. Mature PML NBs function in various cellular pathways, including cell proliferation, DNA damage, apoptosis, transcriptional regulation, stem cell renewal, alternative lengthening of telomeres, chromatin organization, epigenetic regulation, autophagy, intrinsic and innate antiviral immunity [2]. Type I interferons (IFNs) play a critical role in mediating innate immunity against viruses by the induction of several IFN stimulated genes (ISGs) that function at many levels of virus multiplication cycles, including entry, transcription, translation, genome replication, assembly, and release [17]. IFN production occurs upon sensing viral genomes or replication intermediates by pattern recognition receptors to initiate downstream sig- naling and IFN-β production [17,18]. PML-II specifically associates with transcription factors NFκB and STAT1, as well as the CBP, to facilitate transcriptional complex formation on gene promoters of IFN-β and numerous ISGs for an efficient induction of transcrip- tion [19]. PML-IV also potentiates IRF3 induction of IFN-β by sequestering Pin1 to PML NBs, therefore preventing Pin1 negative regulation of IRF3 via ubiquitin dependent degra- dation [20,21]. PML was found to positively regulate not only type I IFN signaling, but also type II IFN (IFN-γ) signaling [22–25]. In fact, PML NB components (PML, Sp100, Daxx) themselves are ISGs and IFN treatment

Dominated by bacteria, the microbiota also includes commensal populations of fungi, viruses, archaea, and protists. Unlike bacterial microbiota, which was extensively studied in the past two decades, these non-bacterial microorganisms, their functional roles, and their interaction with one another or with host immune system have not been as widely explored. This review covers the recent findings on the non-bacterial communities of the human gastrointestinal microbiota and their involvement in health and disease, with particular focus on the pathophysiology of inflammatory bowel disease.

    SUMO-1 Regulates the Conformational Dynamics of Thymine-DNA

    Smet-Nocca et al. BMC Biochemistry 2011, 12:4 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2091/12/4 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access SUMO-1 regulates the conformational dynamics of Thymine-DNA Glycosylase regulatory domain and competes with its DNA binding activity Caroline Smet-Nocca1, Jean-Michel Wieruszeski2, Hélène Léger1,3, Sebastian Eilebrecht1,3, Arndt Benecke1,3* Abstract Background: The human thymine-DNA glycosylase (TDG) plays a dual role in base excision repair of G:U/T mismatches and in transcription. Regulation of TDG activity by SUMO-1 conjugation was shown to act on both functions. Furthermore, TDG can interact with SUMO-1 in a non-covalent manner. Results: Using NMR spectroscopy we have determined distinct conformational changes in TDG upon either covalent sumoylation on lysine 330 or intermolecular SUMO-1 binding through a unique SUMO-binding motif (SBM) localized in the C-terminal region of TDG. The non-covalent SUMO-1 binding induces a conformational change of the TDG amino-terminal regulatory domain (RD). Such conformational dynamics do not exist with covalent SUMO-1 attachment and could potentially play a broader role in the regulation of TDG functions for instance during transcription. Both covalent and non-covalent processes activate TDG G:U repair similarly. Surprisingly, despite a dissociation of the SBM/SUMO-1 complex in presence of a DNA substrate, SUMO-1 preserves its ability to stimulate TDG activity indicating that the non-covalent interactions are not directly involved in the regulation of TDG activity. SUMO-1 instead acts, as demonstrated here, indirectly by competing with the regulatory domain of TDG for DNA binding.

    RESEARCH ARTICLE Repression of viral gene expression and replication by the unfolded protein response effector XBP1u Florian Hinte1, Eelco van Anken2,3, Boaz Tirosh4, Wolfram Brune1* 1Heinrich Pette Institute, Leibniz Institute for Experimental Virology, Hamburg, Germany; 2Division of Genetics and Cell Biology, San Raffaele Scientific Institute, Milan, Italy; 3Universita` Vita-Salute San Raffaele, Milan, Italy; 4Institute for Drug Research, School of Pharmacy, Faculty of Medicine, The Hebrew University, Jerusalem, Israel Abstract The unfolded protein response (UPR) is a cellular homeostatic circuit regulating protein synthesis and processing in the ER by three ER-to-nucleus signaling pathways. One pathway is triggered by the inositol-requiring enzyme 1 (IRE1), which splices the X-box binding protein 1 (Xbp1) mRNA, thereby enabling expression of XBP1s. Another UPR pathway activates the activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6). Here we show that murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV), a prototypic b-herpesvirus, harnesses the UPR to regulate its own life cycle. MCMV activates the IRE1-XBP1 pathway early post infection to relieve repression by XBP1u, the product of the unspliced Xbp1 mRNA. XBP1u inhibits viral gene expression and replication by blocking the activation of the viral major immediate-early promoter by XBP1s and ATF6. These findings reveal a redundant function of XBP1s and ATF6 as activators of the viral life cycle, and an unexpected role of XBP1u as a potent repressor of both XBP1s and ATF6-mediated activation. *For correspondence: [email protected] Introduction The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is responsible for synthesis, posttranslational modification, and fold- Competing interest: See ing of a substantial portion of cellular proteins.

The CCCH-type zinc finger proteins have gained attention due to their unusual ability to interact with RNA and thereby control different steps of RNA metabolism. Since virus infections interfere with RNA metabolism, dynamic changes in the CCCH-type zinc finger proteins and virus replication are expected to happen. In the present review, we will discuss how three CCCH-type zinc finger proteins, ZC3H11A, MKRN1, and U2AF1, interfere with human adenovirus replication. We will summarize the functions of these three cellular proteins and focus on their potential pro- or anti-viral activities during a lytic human adenovirus infection. Keywords: human adenovirus; zinc finger protein; CCCH-type; ZC3H11A; MKRN1; U2AF1 1. Zinc Finger Proteins Zinc finger proteins are a big family of proteins with characteristic zinc finger (ZnF) domains present in the protein sequence. The ZnF domains consists of various ZnF motifs, which are short 30–100 amino acid sequences, coordinating zinc ions (Zn2+).

Mounting experimental research associated with XIAP has shown it to be a master regulator of cell death not only in apoptosis, but also in autophagy and necroptosis. As a vital decider on cell survival, XIAP is involved in the regulation of cancer initiation, promotion and progression. XIAP up-regulation occurs in many human diseases, resulting in a series of undesired effects such as raising the cellular tolerance to genetic lesions, inflammation and cytotoxicity. Hence, anti-tumor drugs targeting XIAP have become an important focus for cancer therapy research. RNA–XIAP interaction is a focus, which has enriched the general profile of XIAP regulation in human cancer. In this review, the basic functions of XIAP, its regulatory role in cancer, anti-XIAP drugs and recent findings about RNA–XIAP interactions are discussed.

Introduction X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP), also known as inhibitor of apoptosis protein 3 (IAP3), baculoviral IAP repeat-containing protein 4 (BIRC4), and human IAPs like protein (hILP), belongs to IAP family which was discovered in insect baculovirus [1]. Eight different IAPs have been isolated from human tissues: NAIP (BIRC1), BIRC2 (cIAP1), BIRC3 (cIAP2), XIAP (BIRC4), BIRC5 (survivin), BIRC6 (apollon), BIRC7 (livin) and BIRC8 [2].

Cells infected with Ad2 wt or most of these other Ad2 Ip mutants are rounded and aggregated without cell lysis (cyt+). The cyt phenotype of d1250 resembles the cyt mutants of highly oncogenic Adl2, isolated by Takemori et al. (Virology 36:575-586, 1968). By intertypic complementation analysis, we showed that the Adl2 cyt mutants indeed map within the 19-kd tumor antigen-coding region. The transforming potential of d1250 was assayed on an established rat embryo fibroblast cell line, CREF, and on primary rat embryo fibroblasts and baby rat kidney cells.

It was previously shown that interruption of SUMOylation through the addition of the dominant negative E2 SUMO conjugating enzyme Ubc9 in mitosis causes abnormal chromosome segregation in Xenopus laevis egg extract (XEE) cell-free assays, and DNA topoisomerase IIα (TOP2A) was identified as a substrate for SUMOylation at the mitotic centromeres. TOP2A is SUMOylated at K660 and multiple sites in the C-terminal domain (CTD). We sought to understand the role of TOP2A SUMOylation at the mitotic centromeres by identifying specific binding proteins for SUMOylated TOP2A CTD. Through affinity isolation, we have identified Haspin, a histone H3 threonine 3 (H3T3) kinase, as a SUMOylated TOP2A CTD binding protein.
