TRIM E3 Ligases Interfere with Early and Late Stages of the Retroviral Life Cycle

Abstract: Members of the TRIpartite interaction Motif (TRIM) family of E3 ligases have been shown to exhibit antiviral activities. Here we report a near comprehensive screen for antiretroviral activities of 55 TRIM proteins (36 human, 19 mouse). We identified ∼20 TRIM proteins that, when transiently expressed in HEK293 cells, affect the entry or release of human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV), murine leukemia virus (MLV), or avian leukosis virus (ALV). While TRIM11 and 31 inhibited HIV entry, TRIM11 enhanced N-MLV entry… Show more

“…Previous studies have shown that many TRIM proteins are induced in response to interferons and that TRIM proteins are important components of resistance to pathogens and are involved in many biological processes [20]. TRIM5 is involved in pathogen recognition and regulation of transcriptional pathways in host defense.…”

“…With respect to a role for TRIMs as viral restriction factors there has been an explosion of information in recent years [8,46,47]. In particular, a study by Uchil et al [47] in which they screened various human and mouse TRIMs, demonstrated that TRIMs act nearly every stage in viral replication (summarised in table 2).…”

“…In particular, a study by Uchil et al [47] in which they screened various human and mouse TRIMs, demonstrated that TRIMs act nearly every stage in viral replication (summarised in table 2). This section aims to provide an update on emerging TRIMs in this area and potential links with autoimmunity.…”

“…Because the TRIM5␣ coiled-coil domain controls protein oligomerization (3,6,9,11), this observation implies that the multimerization of TRIM5␣rh is not necessary for the encapsidation and that a TRIM5␣rh monomer interacts with HIV-1 Gag polyproteins during the late restriction. We note with interest the recent observation that TRIM15 can block retroviral production (31). Similar to the TRIM5␣rh-mediated late restriction, TRIM15 does not require the B30.2(PRYSPRY) or coiled-coil domains of TRIM15 to interact with the murine leukemia virus Gag in the producer cells (31).…”

Thus, recognition of retroviral Gag proteins without forming multimers may be a universal property among TRIM family proteins that affect the late phase of retroviral life cycles.…”
