Research projects in our group focus on the interaction of retroviruses with their host cells.

Projects

Research projects in our group address different aspects of retroviral biology. A long-term interest of the group is the formation and architecture of the infectious human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) particle. A major current focus in the lab is the study of entry and post-entry stages in the life cycle of HIV‑1 and murine leukemia virus and the role of innate immune responses in these processes. We combine conventional and super-resolution microscopy as well as correlative-light and electron microscopy (CLEM) to study the composition and architecture of entering subviral complexes and the interaction with cellular proteins and structures. Other projects address the role of lipids for virus assembly and cell entry, the use of CRISP/Cas based approaches for HIV‑1 elimination, and the spread of influenza virus in complex cell systems. Our main research interests are:

  • Morphogenesis and structure of HIV
  • Post-entry stages in retroviral replication
  • Role of lipids in virus replication
Figure 1: Tomogram of HIV particles (red) budding at the plasma membrane (blue)

Assembly and budding of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is directed by the main structural polyprotein Gag and occurs at the plasma membrane of the infected cell. The virus is initially released as immature non-infectious particle consisting of mostly uncleaved Gag polyproteins. The immature virion consists of approximately 2500 Gag molecules arranged as spherical protein shell. Particle maturation occurs after proteolytic processing of Gag at five different cleavage sites, which is mediated by the virus-encoded, virion-associated protease (PR). Maturation leads to disassembly of the immature Gag layer, followed by a second assembly stage forming the mature cone-shaped capsid that incorporates the condensed viral genome associated with replication proteins.

The assembly of immature particles requires only the viral Gag polyprotein and can be mimicked in vitro using bacterially purified Gag-derived proteins. We have developed in vitro assembly systems to analyze the molecular architecture of capsid assemblies, to study the effect of mutations on mature and immature particle formation and identify inhibitors of HIV assembly. These studies are complemented by analyses of HIV particle formation in tissue culture.

We employ structural analyses including transmission EM, cryo-EM and tomography to obtain detailed three-dimensional images of mature and immature virions, as well as viral budding sites, of wild-type and mutant HIV. These provide a better understanding of the mechanisms and protein interfaces governing assembly and maturation.

Figure 2: Post-entry steps in retroviral replication. The retroviral capsid which houses the viral RNA is released in the cytoplasm of the infected cell. The capsid has to navigate through a hostile cytoplasmic environment while the RNA genome is reverse transcribed into DNA. Numerous host cell factors can target viral replication complexes. We are particularly interested in (i) cGAS, a component of the innate immune system that detects the presence of viral DNA, (ii) TREX1 digests abortive viral cDNA thus downregulating the immune response to MLV and HIV-1 infection, (iii) NONO, that binds directly to capsid and is essential for cGAS activation and relocalization to the nucleus.

Delivery of the genome-containing retroviral capsid into the cytoplasm of a newly infected cell is followed by reverse transcription of the viral RNA and transport of the resulting cDNA to the host cell DNA, where the genetic information of the virus is integrated. These early post-entry replication steps occur within poorly charaterized subviral complexes termed reverse-transcription and pre-integration complexes (RTC/PIC). Increasing evidence indicates that the viral capsid plays a central role throughout this replication phase.

A detailed understanding of post-entry is hampered by the fact that reverse transcription, intracellular transport and capsid uncoating are tightly intertwined. Furthermore, numerous host cell dependency and restricition factors affect these processes in a cell type dependent manner. Finally, there are fundamental differences not only between different types of host cells, but also between different retroviruses. While many retroviruses (e.g. moloney leukemia virus, MLV) depend on cell division to gain access to host cell genome, lentiviruses, e.g. HIV-1, can enter the intact nucleus through nuclear pores.

Our work on retroviral post-entry comprises a number of different projects, in which we

  • characterize the composition and structure of retroviral replication complexes in different cells and at different intracellular localizations,
  • investigate the function of host cell dependency (e.g. CPSF6, Nup153) and restriction factors that interact with the incoming viral capsid and of cellular sensors (e.g. cGAS, TREX1) that detect the viral cDNA,
  • assess the role of capsid stability in post-entry processes
  • and compare replication pathways and cellular immune responses in HIV-1 and MLV infected cells.

For this, we combine advanced labeling technologies (e.g. EdU-click labeling of viral DNA, 3D FISH ANCHOR visualization) with state-of-the-art microscopy (STED nanoscopy, correlative light and electron microscopy, (cryo)electron tomography, live cell imaging), molecular biological (e.g. digital droplet PCR), virological and biochemical approaches. In these projects, we collaborate with different groups within the Collaborative Research Center SFB 1129 and the Priority Program SPP 1923, funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG).

Figure 3: The HIV-1 Lipodome

HIV is an enveloped virus. Its protein capsid is surrounded by a lipid envelope, which is derived from the host cell membrane in the viral budding process. During infection of new host cells, this lipid envelope fuses to the cellular plasma membrane. Thus, lipids are involved in virus entry and egress, and they may play functional roles in viral protein composition, particle stability and infectivity. However, unlike viral proteins, viral lipids and their functional role a poorly understood.

In collaboration with Britta Brügger we have determined the lipidome of  HIV using mass spectroscopy and biochemical approaches. We are currently analyzing the influence of host cells and viral proteins on the lipid compostion of the envelope and study the influence of lipid composition on the properties of the virus.

In order to study the lipid and protein organization at HIV-1 assembly sites, we have developed a system that allows us to recruit the viral structural protein Gag to the plasma membrane at a defined time point. Using clickable lipid analogs, STED and MINFLUX nanoscopy we investigate the (re)distribution of distinct lipids during the viral assembly process.
