Interferon induced transmembrane proteins 1, 2 and 3 (IFITMs) belong to a family of highly related antiviral factors that have been shown interfere with large spectrum viruses including Filoviruses, Coronaviruses, Influenza virus, Dengue virus HIV-1. In all these cases, the reported mechanism inhibition indicates pool IFITM present in target cells blocks incoming viral particles endosomal vesicles where they are subsequently degraded.In this study, we describe an additional through which...
IFITMs are broad antiviral factors that block incoming virions in endosomal vesicles, protecting target cells from infection. In the case of HIV-1, we and others reported existence an additional mechanism through which lead to production reduced infectivity. However, whether this second inhibition is unique HIV or extends other viruses currently unknown. To address question, have analyzed susceptibility a spectrum negative imprinting virion particles infectivity by IFITMs. The results...
ISG20 is a broad spectrum antiviral protein thought to directly degrade viral RNA. However, this mechanism of inhibition remains controversial. Using the Vesicular Stomatitis Virus (VSV) as model RNA virus, we show here that interferes with replication by decreasing synthesis in absence degradation. Importantly, demonstrate exerts translational control over large panel non-self substrates including those originating from transfected DNA, while sparing endogenous transcripts. This activity...

To better characterize the behavior of HIV-1 capsids we developed EURT, for Entry/Uncoating assay based on core-packaged RNA availability and Translation. EURT is an alternative to Blam-Vpr, but as reporter translation relies core opening, it can be used study viral behavior. Our reveals existence two major capsid species, a dead end one in which genome readily exposed cytoplasm functional such exposure requires artificial destabilization. Although reverse transcription drives faster loss...
IFITM proteins have been associated with the sequestration of incoming virions in endosomes (target cell protection) and production virion particles that incorporate IFITMs exhibit decreased infectivity (negative imprinting infectivity). How latter is regulated whether these two antiviral properties are related remain unknown. By examining behavior a large panel IFITM3 mutants against HIV-1, we determined essentially packaged into proportionally to their intracellular levels expression....
HIV-1, an enveloped RNA virus, produces viral particles that are known to be much more heterogeneous in size than is typical of non-enveloped viruses. We present here a novel strategy study HIV-1 Viral Like Particles (VLP) assembly by measuring the distribution these purified VLPs and subsequent cores thanks Atomic Force Microscopy imaging statistical analysis. This allowed us identify whether presence acts as modulator for heterogeneity large population particles. These results analyzed...
Touch sensation is primarily encoded by mechanoreceptors, called low-threshold mechanoreceptors (LTMRs), with their cell bodies in the dorsal root ganglia. Because of great diversity terms molecular signature, terminal endings morphology, and electrophysiological properties, mirroring complexity tactile experience, LTMRs are a model choice to study cues differentially controlling neuronal diversification. While transcriptional codes that define different LTMR subtypes have been extensively...
IFITMs are broad viral inhibitors capable of interfering with both early and late phases the replicative cycle many different viruses. By comparing 21 IFITM proteins issued from animal species for their ability to inhibit HIV-1, we have identified several that exhibit either enhanced or impaired antiviral behavior.
