Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) capsids leave the nucleus by a process of envelopment and de-envelopment at the nuclear envelope (NE) that is accompanied by structural alterations of the NE. As capsids translocate across the NE, transient primary enveloped virions form in the perinuclear space. Here, we provide evidence that torsinA (TA), a ubiquitously expressed ATPase, has a role in HSV-1 nuclear egress. TA resides within the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)/NE and functions in maintaining normal NE architecture. We show that perturbation of TA normal function by overexpressing torsinA wild type (TAwt) inhibits HSV-1 production. Ultrastructural analysis of infected cells overexpressing TAwt revealed reduced levels of surface virions in addition to accumulation of novel, double-membrane structures called virus-like vesicles (VLVs). Although mainly found in the cytoplasm, VLVs resemble primary virions in their size, by the appearance of the inner membrane, and by the presence of pUL34, a structural component of primary virions. Collectively, our data suggest a model in which interference of TA normal function by overexpression impairs de-envelopment of the primary virions leading to their accumulation in a cytoplasmic membrane compartment. This implies novel functions for TA at the NE.
