Abstract

The role of accessory proteins during cell-to-cell transmission of HIV-1 has not been explicitly defined. In part, this is related to difficulties in measuring virus replication in cell cocultures with high accuracy, as cells coexist at different stages of infection and separation of effector cells from target cells is complicated. In this study, we used replication-dependent reporter vectors to determine requirements for Vif, Vpu, Vpr, or Nef during one cycle of HIV-1 cell coculture and cell-free infection in lymphoid and nonlymphoid cells. Comparative analysis of HIV-1 replication in two cell systems showed that, irrespective of transmission way, accessory proteins were generally less required for virus replication in 293T/CD4/X4 cells than in Jurkat-to-Raji/CD4 cell cocultures. This is consistent with a well-established fact that lymphoid cells express a broad spectrum of restriction factors, while nonlymphoid cells are rather limited in this regard. Remarkably, Vpu deletion reduced the level of cell-free infection, but enhanced the level of cell coculture infection and increased the fraction of multiply infected cells. Nef deficiency did not influence or moderately reduced HIV-1 infection in nonlymphoid and lymphoid cell cocultures, respectively, but strongly affected cell-free infection. Knockout of BST2—a Vpu antagonizing restriction factor—in Jurkat producer cells abolished the enhanced replication of HIV-1 ΔVpu in cell coculture and prevented the formation of viral clusters on cell surface. Thus, BST2-tethered viral particles mediated cell coculture infection more efficiently and at a higher level of multiplicity than diffusely distributed virions. In conclusion, our results demonstrate that the mode of transmission may determine the degree of accessory protein requirements during HIV-1 infection.

  • Cell-to-cell infection enhances co-transmission of two different strains of HIV-1 in vitro and in vivo; cell-cell contact can increase multiplicity of infection and diversity of HIV.

    “Law et al. have shown that cell-to-cell infection enhances co-transmission of two different strains of HIV-1 in vitro and in vivo [129]. This is well consistent with our results obtained using cell lines and two reporter vectors, inGFPt and in-mCherry [131], suggesting that cell-cell contact can increase multiplicity of infection and diversity of HIV.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
