Cytomegalovirus US28 regulates cellular EphA2 to maintain viral latency

Abstract: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivation from latency following immune dysregulation remains a serious risk for patients, often causing substantial morbidity and mortality. Here, we demonstrate the CMV-encoded G protein–coupled receptor, US28, in coordination with cellular Ephrin receptor A2, attenuates mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling, thereby limiting viral replication in latently infected primary monocytes. Furthermore, treatment of latently infected primary monocytes with dasatinib, a Food and Drug Ass… Show more

“…US28 expression is essential for HCMV latency in CD34+ HPCs ( 12, 14, 15, 17 ), THP1 cells ( 10, 15, 35 ), Kasumi-3 cells ( 12, 14, 15 ), and monocytes ( 10, 36, 37 ). Accordingly, we found infection of CD14+ primary peripheral blood monocytes with an HCMV mutant lacking US28 (US28Δ) failed to establish a quiescent infection, leading to rapid IE1 protein expression at 24 through 48 hours post-infection (hpi) similar to WT infection in replication permissive fibroblasts ( Fig.…”

“…However, mechanisms by which HCMV promotes the establishment of a quiescent infection within monocytes remain unclear. US28 is essential for latency/quiescence in CD34+ HPCs ( 12, 14, 15, 17 ), THP1 cells ( 10, 15, 35 ), Kasumi-3 cells ( 12, 14, 15 ), and monocytes ( 10, 36, 37 ); thus, we sought to determine the mechanism through which US28 promotes the establishment of a quiescent infection within monocytes. Herein, we demonstrate that virion-associated US28 is necessary and sufficient to dampen EGFR signaling to limit Akt activity triggered by HCMV entry.…”

“…The galK gene is a dual-selection cassette widely used in genome editing of herpesviruses [ 82 , 83 , 84 ]. The galK gene encodes galactokinase, which allows galK -deficient E. coli to grow on the medium with galactose as the sole carbon source during positive selection.…”

“…This effect is in part mediated by suppression of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) signaling pathways ( 25 ). Attenuation of MAPK signaling was recently shown to be the result of US28 interacting with the ephrin receptor A2 (EphA2) ( 30 ), whereas NF-κB signaling is subdued through rapid downregulation of interferon gamma inducible protein 16 (IFI16) by US28 ( 31 ). These functions underline an importance for HCMV immune evasion.…”
