Fine Regulation of Influenza Virus RNA Transcription and Replication by Stoichiometric Changes in Viral NS1 and NS2 Proteins

Lei Zhang et al.

Summary: In this study, it was discovered that the expression levels of NS1 and NS2 proteins in influenza virus infection can regulate viral RNA transcription and replication. NS1 protein stimulates viral transcription, while NS2 protein inhibits transcription. The expression levels of NS1 and NS2 proteins are closely related to the synthesis dynamics of viral RNA. The key functional amino acids of NS1 and NS2 involved in these regulations were also identified.

A structural understanding of influenza virus genome replication

Zihan Zhu et al.

Summary: Influenza virus replication relies on the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase and viral ribonucleoprotein complex. Recent structural data have provided insights into the molecular mechanisms of influenza virus genome replication, particularly in terms of the encapsidation of nascent RNA, de novo assembly of ribonucleoprotein complexes, and the regulation of replication initiation through interactions with host and viral cues.

The ubiquitination landscape of the influenza A virus polymerase

Franziska Guenl et al.

Summary: The replication of influenza A virus relies on ubiquitination of the viral polymerase derived from host cells. This study reveals that site-specific ubiquitination of PB1-K578 is acquired during infection and regulates the dimerization of polymerase and the binding of NP. Mass spectrometry analysis has identified 59 modified lysines across the three subunits of the viral polymerase, which affect mRNA transcription, vRNA replication, and the generation of recombinant viruses via non-proteolytic mechanisms.

An intermediate state allows influenza polymerase to switch smoothly between transcription and replication cycles

Huanhuan Li et al.

Summary: Using structural and biochemical methods, the authors reveal the existence of an intermediate state of the influenza polymerase that allows it to switch between transcription and replication. They propose a mechanism by which the polymerase achieves this functional switching through the previously unstudied intermediate state, characterized by a blocked cap-binding domain and a contracted core region. The formation of this intermediate state is necessary for both the transcription and replication activities of the polymerase.

The SUMO-interacting motif in NS2 promotes adaptation of avian influenza virus to mammals

Liuke Sun et al.

Summary: Species differences in ANP32A/B restrict avian influenza virus in mammalian cells. Adaptive mutations, such as PB2-E627K, are required for efficient replication of avian influenza viruses in mammals. We found that NS2 protein promotes avian vRNP assembly and enhances interactions with mammalian ANP32A/B, overcoming the restriction. Disrupting the conserved SUMO-interacting motif (SIM) in NS2 impairs virus replication and pathogenicity in mammals, indicating NS2 as a cofactor in the adaptation process of avian influenza virus to mammals.

The Hierarchical Sequence Requirements of the H1 SubtypeSpecific Noncoding Regions of Influenza A Virus

Minglei Pan et al.

Summary: The genome of influenza A virus consists of eight single-stranded viral RNA (vRNA) segments. The nonconserved noncoding regions (NCRs) at the 39 and 59 termini of each segment show extremely low divergence and mutation rate. They appear as segment specific among the eight segments and also subtype specific among different subtype-determinant hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) segments. In order to acquire in-depth knowledge on the sequence requirements of the segment-specific or subtype-specific NCRs (ssNCRs), we, in the context of WSN (H1N1) reverse genetics, designed a virus random nucleotide selection assay (vRNSA) in which we generated pHW2000-HA plasmid libraries with random nucleotides in each grouped nucleotide positions in the 3 ' and 5 ' H1-ssNCRs, followed by virus rescue, serial passage, and deep sequencing. The resulting sequence logos present a visualized dynamic overview of the hierarchical sequence requirements of the 39 and 59 H1-ssNCRs. It showed that, in the process of continuous passage, the 39 H1ssNCR, in general, stabilized more quickly than the 5 ' H1-ssNCR. The nucleotides close to the highly conserved 3 ' and 5 ' promoter regions showed higher sequence stringency than nucleotides away from the promoter regions. All stabilized sequences displayed a common feature of high A/U ratios. Especially with our mutational function analyses, we demonstrate that the 3 ' promoter-proximal nucleotides could cooperatively exert a direct effect on the transcription and replication of the HA segment. Together, these results provide in-depth knowledge for understanding the NCRs of influenza A virus.

The Hierarchical Sequence Requirements of the H1 Subtype-Specific Noncoding Regions of Influenza A Virus

Minglei Pan et al.

Summary: The nonconserved noncoding regions (ssNCRs) at both 3' and 5' ends of viral RNA segments of influenza A virus are largely conserved among the same segments of different viruses. However, the function-related sequence requirements of these ssNCRs remain unclear. In this study, a vRNSA approach was developed to gain insights into the sequence requirements of segment-specific or subtype-specific ssNCRs. The results showed that the 3' ssNCR stabilized more quickly than the 5' ssNCR during continuous passage, and the nucleotides close to the highly conserved promoter regions displayed higher sequence stringency. In addition, specific nucleotides in the 3' promoter-proximal region were found to directly affect viral RNA transcription and replication. This study provides in-depth knowledge for understanding the nonconserved noncoding regions of influenza A virus.
