Abstract

The cytoplasmic domain of lentiviral Envelopes (EnvCD) ensures Env incorporation into nascent virions and regulates Env trafficking to and from the plasma membrane. It has also been reported to promote transcription from the viral LTR both directly and indirectly. Noticeably, the HIV-1 and SIVmac239 EnvCDs were described to trigger nuclear translocation of NF-κB (Postler, Cell Host Microbes 2012). Given the paramount importance of identifying viral and host factors regulating HIV transcription, cellular signaling pathways and latency, and given that viral replication capacity is dependent on Env, we asked whether HIV EnvCDs from different HIV-1 subtypes differently modulated NF-κB. To that aim, we evaluated the ability of primary HIV-1 Envs from subtypes B and C to activate the NF-κB pathway. Primary subtype B and C Envs all failed to activate the NF-κB pathway. In contrast, when the EnvCD of HIV-1 Envs was fused to the the CD8-α chain, it induced ~ 10-fold increase in NF-κB induction, and this increase was much stronger with a truncated form of the HIV EnvCD lacking the 76 C-terminal residues and containing the proposed TAK-1 binding domain. Our results indicate that the HIV-1 EnvCD is unlikely to trigger the NF-κB pathway in its native trimeric form.

The cytoplasmic domain (CD) of lentiviral envelopes (Env) is unusually long (~ 150 residues) compared to other retroviruses (< 50 residues) [1] and reviewed in [25]. It comprises a disordered sequence with a tyrosine-based internalization signal immediately downstream of the membrane-spanning-domain (MSD), an immunodominant epitope and three amphipathic α-helices (lentiviral lytic peptides, LLP-2, LLP-3 and LLP-1). Despite considerable sequence variation, the physicochemical and structural properties of peptides spanning the LLP regions are believed to be conserved across HIV types and subtypes [6].
The EnvCD ensures Env incorporation into the nascent virion [716]. It also regulates Env trafficking to and from the plasma membrane [17, 18] through the endolysosomal and Trans-Golgi-Network (TGN) by interacting with multiple cellular factors, including AP1–3, TIP47, Rab9, Rab11A/FIP1C and retromer components Vps26 and Vps35 [1925]. Different groups have reported that the EnvCD could also enhance viral transcription, by relieving RhoA-mediated transcriptional inhibition through the interaction of LLP-3 with p155-RhoGEF [26, 27] and by affecting the stability of the precursor of luman, a repressor of Tat-mediated HIV transcription [28]. The HIV-1 and SIVmac239 EnvCDs were also reported to induce the nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65/RelA [29]. For HIV-1, residues 759–770, encompassing the Y768HRL motif at the N-terminus of LLP-2 interact with TAK-1, leading to phosphorylation of IκB [29].
In vitro, differences in viral replication capacity across subtypes map to the viral Env [3034]. Because NF-κB activates T-lymphocytes and the viral promoter LTR contains NF-κB binding sites [35], we asked whether primary HIV-1 Envs from subtypes B and C differently trigger the NF-κB pathway.
To evaluate NF-κB induction by different primary HIV-1 Envs, HEK293T cells were cotransfected with a NF-κB-Firefly-Luciferase reporter plasmid and a panel of 13 HIV-1 full-length Envs cloned in pCDNA3.1: we used HIV-1 EnvNL4.3 [36], EnvNLAD8 [37], EnvHXB2, subtype B [38] and subtype C [39, 40] Envs. EnvNL4.3 harboring a STOP codon at position 710 (EnvΔCD) was used as negative control. All vectors express the two Rev exons. Transfection efficiency was assessed by Flow Cytometry and confirmed protein expression 37 and 48 h post-transfection, with a decrease by 48 h post-transfection (Additional file 1: Figure S1A), probably reflecting Env-induced cell death. To normalize for transfection efficiency, a plasmid expressing CMV-Renilla-Luciferase (Promega pGL4.74 hRLuc) was included in all experiments. NF-κB-Luciferase induction by each of the viral Envs was normalized using the corresponding Renilla-Luciferase signal, and calculated as the fold-change relative to the empty vector (mock), as in [29]. As shown in Fig. 1a, TNF-α (Sigma) readily induced a ~ 2 log increase in NF-κB-Luciferase, validating the system. However, neither of the HIV-1 Envs triggered NF-κB activity (p > 0.05, Kruskal-Wallis test): NF-κB-Luciferase induction ranged from 0.79 to 1.5 for subtype B Envs and from 0.36 to 1.16 for subtype C Envs 37 h post-transfection and from 0.36 to 1.04 for subtype B Envs and 0.31 to 0.80 for subtype C Envs 48 h post-transfection. Variations in NF-κB-Luciferase (Fig. 1a) did not recapitulate Env expression levels (Additional file 1: Figure S1A). When NF-κB-Luciferase induction was further normalized to Env expression levels (MFI) to account for variability in Env expression levels, NF-κB-Luciferase triggered by the viral Envs never exceeded the levels induced by the mock control (p > 0.05, Kruskal-Wallis test) (Additional file 2: Figure S2A), reflecting basal cell activation levels upon transfection and confirming that native Envs do not trigger NF-κB. Limiting serum in HEK293T cell cultures (1% Fetal Bovine Serum) to ensure minimal basal activation did not change NF-κB induction (not shown). Of note, while the HIV-1 Env ectodomain has been reported to trigger NF-κB and apoptosis [4143], this phenomenon requires CD4 and CXCR4 or a co-receptor. Here we investigated NF-κB-induction in cells that do not express the viral receptor CD4, excluding a similar phenomenon. The capacity of the HIV-1 Envs to induce transcription from the LTR was then assessed by transfecting TZM-bl cells with the same Env expression vectors. TZM-bl cells are CD4+ CXCR4+ HeLa-derived cells expressing the Firefly Luciferase and the β-galactosidase genes under the control of the viral promoter LTR. Tat-containing Env expression vectors (EnvNL4.3 + Tat, EnvNLAD8 + Tat) were used as positive controls and the CMV-Renilla-Luciferase vector was included for normalization. LTR-driven transcription was induced by the Tat-containing vectors, as expected, but not by the Env expression vectors, ranging from 0.25 to 1.51 and from 0.30 to 1.26 for subtype B and C Envs respectively (p > 0.05, Kruskal-Wallis test) (Fig. 1b).
One major difference between our experimental set-up and that of Postler et al. [29] lies in the use of Env expression vectors versus CD8-EnvCD chimeras, respectively. To verify the impact of the ectodomain on the ability of the EnvCD to trigger the NF-κB pathway, we cotransfected HEK293T cells with the NF-κB-Luciferase reporter and a construct containing the EnvCD of HXB2 (residues 707–756) fused to the extracellular and transmembrane domains of the CD8-α chain (residues 1–211) [20], a kind gift from C Berlioz-Torrent. A CD8-α construct bearing a STOP codon downstream of the transmembrane domain (CD8STOP) was used as a negative control [20]. The CMV-Renilla-Luciferase vector was included for normalization and the fold-change in NF-κB-Luciferase induction was compared (Kruskal-Wallis test). As expected, the CD8-EnvCDHXB2 chimera induced a ~ 10-fold increase in NF-κB-dependent-Luciferase expression relative to the CD8STOP construct 37 h (p < 0.001) and 48 h (p < 0.01) post-transfection (Fig. 2a), in agreement with the findings of Postler et al. using a similar chimera [29]. Using a CD8-EnvCD chimera truncated just downstream of the Y768HRL motif, CD8-EnvCDHXB2–780 (residues 707–780 of HIV-1 EnvCDHXB2), NF-κB-Luciferase activity was ~ 16-fold and ~ 40-fold higher relative to CD8STOP 37 and 48 h post-transfection, respectively (p < 0.001) (Fig. 2a), while a CD8-EnvCD chimera truncated just upstream of the motif of interest, CD8-EnvCDHXB2–760 (residues 707–760 of HIV-1 EnvCDHXB2) did not activate the NF-κB pathway (Fig. 2a), again recapitulating the results of Postler et al. using a CD8-EnvCD construct lacking the 74 C-terminal residues [29]. When NF-κB induction was further normalized to CD8-EnvCD expression levels, CD8-CDHXB2, CD8-EnvCD780 and CD8-SIVmac239 maintained the capacity to activate NF-κB compared to the CD8STOP construct (Additional file 2: Figure S2B). Taken together, these results show that the HIV-1 EnvCD triggers the NF-κB pathway only when expressed downstream of CD8-α, but not in its wild-type form downstream of the isogenic Env ectodomain. We then verified the intracellular localization of the Env-based and CD8-based constructs. As shown in Fig. 2b, EnvNL4.3 and EnvHXB2 colocalized nicely with CD8-EnvCDHXB2 and EnvΔCD colocalized with CD8STOP, arguing against the possibility that different intracellular localization accounts for this dichotomy. We also evaluated the ability of CD8-α-based chimeras fused to the EnvCDs of SIVmac239, MLV and HTLV-1 fused to the CD8-α chain [20] to trigger NF-κB. The CD8-EnvCDSIVmac239 induced a ~ 26-fold (p < 0.05) and 36-fold (p < 0.01) increase in NF-κB-Luciferase 37 and 48 h post-transfection, respectively, compared to CD8STOP (Fig. 2a). The short EnvCDs of MLV and HTLV had no impact on NF-κB activity (p > 0.05) (Fig. 2a), probably because they lack LLP domains. NF-κB induction by CD8-EnvCDHXB2 and CD8-EnvCDHXB2–780 was higher 48 h post-transfection than 37 h post-transfection, while NF-κB induction by CD8-EnvCDSIVmac239 was weaker 48 h post-transfection, probably reflecting EnvCDSIVmac239 toxicity.
Given that T lymphocyte activation is a prerequisite to HIV replication and that the viral promoter LTR contains NF-κB binding sites, identifying the factors that do promote viral transcription and induce apoptosis in a physiological setting is of major importance. It has been proposed that together with Nef, the EnvCD could provide CD4+ T-lymphocytes the two independent triggers necessary for cell activation and viral replication in vivo. Our results clearly argue against the possibility that the HIV-1 EnvCD might trigger the NF-κB pathway during HIV-1 infection. One possible explanation to the differences observed using CD8-EnvCD chimeras and full length HIV-1 Envs is that differences in conformational dynamics dictate the ability of the HIV-1 EnvCD to trigger the NF-κB pathway. Determinants involved in NF-κB induction might remain cryptic in the trimeric native form of Env while becoming exposed in the context of CD8-EnvCD chimeras. The N-terminal domain of the constructs (Env-ectodomain or CD8-α) may affect the conformation of the EnvCD. The reverse has been reported in that truncations of the HIV-1 or SIVmac239 EnvCDs affect the conformation of the corresponding extracellular domain and its susceptibility to neutralization [44, 45]. The levels of Env oligomerization may further modify the determinants of Env which are exposed. In the CD8-EnvCD chimeras, the EnvCD is most likely mono- or dimeric given that CD8 is dimeric [46]. In the native Env, the EnvCD is mainly trimeric. These possibilities are in line with the observation that truncated forms of the EnvCD are more potent NF-κB pathway activators than the full-length Env. While CD8-α-based chimeras and truncated proteins are powerful tools to dissect the biochemical properties and molecular interactions of retroviral EnvCDs, they have limitations, including potential conformational discrepancies with the native protein, as this study documents, and the fact that truncated EnvCDs are counter-selected in vivo for Env incorporation is impaired [47]. Further studies will be needed to fully appreciate the structure and functions of the HIV-1 EnvCD.

Conclusions

In conclusion, the EnvCD of HIV-1 seems to trigger NF-κB when expressed downstream of CD8-α, particularly when truncated forms of the EnvCD are used, but this effect does not extend to the native Env, arguing against the likelihood that the HIV EnvCD activates this pathway in its native form. The results reported in this study confirm the crucial role of the native trimeric structure of the HIV-1 Env protein and illustrate the need to interpret data obtained with chimeric constructs with the highest caution, first ensuring they extend to native proteins. Given that the viral Env is the target of neutralizing antibodies and given the chief role of cellular activation in the pathogenesis of HIV-AIDS, accurately identifying epitopes with potential biological functions is of major importance for the understanding of HIV pathology and for the design of protective vaccine and viral reservoir eradication strategies.
