摘要:The host factor protein TRIM5α plays an important role in restricting the host range of HIV-1, interfering with the integrity of the HIV-1 capsid. TRIM5 triggers an antiviral innate immune response by functioning as a capsid pattern recognition receptor, although the precise mechanism by which the restriction is imposed is not completely understood. Here we used an integrated magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance and molecular dynamics simulations approach to characterize, at atomic resolution, the dynamics of the capsid’s hexameric and pentameric building blocks, and the interactions with TRIM5α in the assembled capsid. Our data indicate that assemblies in the presence of the pentameric subunits are more rigid on the microsecond to millisecond timescales than tubes containing only hexamers. This feature may be of key importance for controlling the capsid’s morphology and stability. In addition, we found that TRIM5α binding to capsid induces global rigidification and perturbs key intermolecular interfaces essential for higher-order capsid assembly, with structural and dynamic changes occurring throughout the entire CA polypeptide chain in the assembly, rather than being limited to a specific protein-protein interface. Taken together, our results suggest that TRIM5α uses several mechanisms to destabilize the capsid lattice, ultimately inducing its disassembly. Our findings add to a growing body of work indicating that dynamic allostery plays a pivotal role in capsid assembly and HIV-1 infectivity.
