Abstract

Liver steatosis is a common health problem associated with hepatitis C virus (HCV) and an important risk factor for the development of liver fibrosis and cancer. Steatosis is caused by triglycerides (TG) accumulating in lipid droplets (LDs), cellular organelles composed of neutral lipids surrounded by a monolayer of phospholipids. The HCV nucleocapsid core localizes to the surface of LDs and induces steatosis in cultured cells and mouse livers by decreasing intracellular TG degradation (lipolysis). Here we report that core at the surface of LDs interferes with the activity of adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL), the key lipolytic enzyme in the first step of TG breakdown. Expressing core in livers or mouse embryonic fibroblasts of ATGL(-/-) mice no longer decreases TG degradation as observed in LDs from wild-type mice, supporting the model that core reduces lipolysis by engaging ATGL. Core must localize at LDs to inhibit lipolysis, as ex vivo TG hydrolysis is impaired in purified LDs coated with core but not when free core is added to LDs. Coimmunoprecipitation experiments revealed that core does not directly interact with the ATGL complex but, unexpectedly, increased the interaction between ATGL and its activator CGI-58 as well as the recruitment of both proteins to LDs. These data link the anti-lipolytic activity of the HCV core protein with altered ATGL binding to CGI-58 and the enhanced association of both proteins with LDs.

Abstract

Lysine acetylation regulates transcription by targeting histones and nonhistone proteins. Here we report that the central regulator of transcription, RNA polymerase II, is subject to acetylation in mammalian cells. Acetylation occurs at eight lysines within the C-terminal domain (CTD) of the largest polymerase subunit and is mediated by p300/KAT3B. CTD acetylation is specifically enriched downstream of the transcription start sites of polymerase-occupied genes genome-wide, indicating a role in early stages of transcription initiation or elongation. Mutation of lysines or p300 inhibitor treatment causes the loss of epidermal growth-factor-induced expression of c-Fos and Egr2, immediate-early genes with promoter-proximally paused polymerases, but does not affect expression or polymerase occupancy at housekeeping genes. Our studies identify acetylation as a new modification of the mammalian RNA polymerase II required for the induction of growth factor response genes.

Abstract

The triglyceride-synthesizing enzyme acyl CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1 (DGAT1) plays a critical role in hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection by recruiting the HCV capsid protein core onto the surface of cellular lipid droplets (LDs). Here we find a new interaction between the non-structural protein NS5A and DGAT1 and show that the trafficking of NS5A to LDs depends on DGAT1 activity. DGAT1 forms a complex with NS5A and core and facilitates the interaction between both viral proteins. A catalytically inactive mutant of DGAT1 (H426A) blocks the localization of NS5A, but not core, to LDs in a dominant-negative manner and impairs the release of infectious viral particles, underscoring the importance of DGAT1-mediated translocation of NS5A to LDs in viral particle production. We propose a model whereby DGAT1 serves as a cellular hub for HCV core and NS5A proteins, guiding both onto the surface of the same subset of LDs, those generated by DGAT1. These results highlight the critical role of DGAT1 as a host factor for HCV infection and as a potential drug target for antiviral therapy.

Abstract

Cells infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) become refractory to further infection by HCV (T. Schaller et al., J. Virol. 81:4591-4603, 2007; D. M. Tscherne et al., J. Virol. 81:3693-3703, 2007). This process, termed superinfection exclusion, does not involve downregulation of surface viral receptors but instead occurs inside the cell at the level of RNA replication. The originally infecting virus may occupy replication niches or sequester host factors necessary for viral growth, preventing effective growth of viruses that enter the cell later. However, there appears to be an additional level of intracellular competition between viral genomes that occurs at or shortly following mitosis. In the setting of cellular division, when two viral replicons of equivalent fitness are present within a cell, each has an equal opportunity to exclude the other. In a population of dividing cells, the competition between viral genomes proceeds apace, randomly clearing one or the other genome from cells in the span of 9 to 12 days. These findings demonstrate a new mechanism of intracellular competition between HCV strains, which may act to further limit HCV's genetic diversity and ability to recombine in vivo.

Abstract

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is closely tied to the lipid metabolism of liver cells. Here we identify the triglyceride-synthesizing enzyme diacylglycerol acyltransferase-1 (DGAT1) as a key host factor for HCV infection. DGAT1 interacts with the viral nucleocapsid core and is required for the trafficking of core to lipid droplets. Inhibition of DGAT1 activity or RNAi-mediated knockdown of DGAT1 severely impairs infectious virion production, implicating DGAT1 as a new target for antiviral therapy.

Abstract

Elucidating the biology of yeast in its full complexity has major implications for science, medicine and industry. One of the most critical processes determining yeast life and physiology is cellular demise. However, the investigation of yeast cell death is a relatively young field, and a widely accepted set of concepts and terms is still missing. Here, we propose unified criteria for the definition of accidental, regulated, and programmed forms of cell death in yeast based on a series of morphological and biochemical criteria. Specifically, we provide consensus guidelines on the differential definition of terms including apoptosis, regulated necrosis, and autophagic cell death, as we refer to additional cell death routines that are relevant for the biology of (at least some species of) yeast. As this area of investigation advances rapidly, changes and extensions to this set of recommendations will be implemented in the years to come. Nonetheless, we strongly encourage the authors, reviewers and editors of scientific articles to adopt these collective standards in order to establish an accurate framework for yeast cell death research and, ultimately, to accelerate the progress of this vibrant field of research.

Abstract

Steatosis is a frequent complication of hepatitis C virus infection. In mice, this condition is recapitulated by the expression of a single viral protein, the nucleocapsid core. Core localizes to the surface of lipid droplets (LDs) in infected liver cells through a process dependent on host diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1 (DGAT1), an enzyme that synthesizes triglycerides in the endoplasmic reticulum. Whether DGAT1 also plays a role in core-induced steatosis is uncertain. Here, we show that mouse embryonic fibroblasts isolated from DGAT1(-/-) mice are protected from core-induced steatosis, as are livers of DGAT1(-/-) mice expressing core, demonstrating that the steatosis is DGAT1-dependent. Surprisingly, core expression did not increase DGAT1 activity or triglyceride synthesis, thus excluding the possibility that core activates DGAT1 to cause steatosis. Instead, we find that DGAT1-dependent localization of core to LDs is a prerequisite for the steatogenic properties of the core. Using biochemical and immunofluorescence microscopy techniques, we show that the turnover of lipids in core-coated droplets is decreased, providing a physiological mechanism for core-induced steatosis. Our results support a bipartite model in which core first requires DGAT1 to gain access to LDs, and then LD-localized core interferes with triglyceride turnover, thus stabilizing lipid droplets and leading to steatosis.

Abstract

In den letzten Jahren konnte der Einzeller Saccharomyces cerevisiae als Modellorganismus für apoptotische Prozesse etabliert werden. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wurde ein altruistischer Aspekt des apoptotischen Zelltodes der Hefe aufgeklärt. Im chronologischen Altern, also unter physiologischen Bedingungen, sterben die meisten Zellen einer klonalen Kultur mit den phänotypischen Markern der Apoptose. Dieser apoptotische Zelltod ist abhängig von der Hefecaspase Yca1p und reaktiven Sauerstoffspezies (ROS). Verhindert bzw. verzögert man aber den Zelltod im chronologischen Altern durch die Deletion der Hefecaspase Yca1p birgt dies auf lange Sicht Selektionsnachteile für die Population, denn gealterte Mutantenzellen sind im adaptiven Wachstum behindert. Außerdem überlebt der Wildtyp die Mutanten in einem kompetitiven Überlebensassay, hat also im direkten Vergleich langfristig Selektionsvorteile. Es konnte zudem gezeigt werden, dass alternde Hefezellen Substanzen sezernieren, die das Überleben von anderen alten Zellen fördern. Des Weiteren konnte die durch Lsm4p Mutation ausgelöste Apoptose mechanistisch näher charakterisiert werden. Da Lsm Proteine beim mRNA splicing und decapping involviert sind, wurde untersucht, welche von beiden Funktionen bei einer Fehlregulation Apoptose auslöst. Störungen im mRNA decapping durch Mutationen oder Disruptionen der beteiligten Proteine führen zu einem Zelltod, der mit den klassischen Marken der Apoptose einhergeht. Dieser Zelltod, nicht aber die mRNA Stoffwechselstörung kann durch die Disruption der Hefecaspase Yca1p verhindert werden. During the past years, yeast has been successfully established as a model organism to study mechanisms of apoptotic regulation. In this thesis an altruistic aspect of apoptotic cell death of yeast is elucidated. During chronological aging, which represents a physiological scenario, most yeast cells of a monoclonal culture die exhibiting the phenotypic markers of apoptotic cell death. Age-induced cell death is dependent on the yeast caspase Yca1p and ROS. Disruption of age-induced apoptosis through deletion of yeast caspase YCA1 is disadvantageous for the monoclonal population, due to the fact that aged mutant cells lose the ability of regrowth. Moreover wild type cells outlast yca1 disruptants in direct competition assays indicating an evolutional advantage for wild type cells. It could be also shown that old yeast cells release substances into the medium that stimulate survival of other old cells. In addition apoptosis induced by mutation of Lsm4p was characterized further in its mechanism. As Lsm proteins have functions in mRNA splicing and decapping mechanisms, it was analyzed which process can cause apoptotic cell death. Interferences of mRNA decapping through deletion or mutation of proteins involved in this process lead to cell death accompanied by the classical markers of apoptosis. This cell death but not the disturbances in mRNA metabolism are dependent on yeast caspase Yca1p.

Abstract

The elongation competence of the RNA polymerase II complex is critically dependent on the positive transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb). P-TEFb exists in two forms in cells, an active form composed of cyclin T1 and CDK9 and an inactive form, in which cyclin T1/CDK9 is sequestered by Hexim1 and 7SK snRNA. Here, we report that partitioning of active and inactive P-TEFb is regulated by acetylation of cyclin T1. Cyclin T1 acetylation triggers dissociation of Hexim1 and 7SK snRNA from cyclin T1/CDK9 and activates the transcriptional activity of P-TEFb. This activation is lost in P-TEFb complexes containing cyclin T1 that can no longer be acetylated. An acetylation-deficient cyclin T1 mutant dominantly suppresses NF-κB-mediated activation of the interleukin-8 promoter but continues to synergize normally with the HIV Tat protein to transactivate the HIV long terminal repeat. These findings support the model that acetylation of cyclin T1 serves as a physiological switch that liberates P-TEFb from its endogenous inhibitors Hexim1 and 7SK snRNA, but is not required for the cooperative action with HIV Tat.
