SUMMARY
The organelles within a eukaryotic host are manipulated by viruses to
support successful virus replication and spread of infection, yet the global
impact of viral infection on host organelles is poorly understood. Integrating
microscopy, sub-cellular fractionation, mass spectrometry, and functional
analyses, we conducted a cell-wide study of organelles in primary fibroblasts
throughout the timecourse of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection. We used
label-free and isobaric-labeling proteomics to characterize nearly 4,000 host
and 100 viral proteins, then classified their specific subcellular locations
over time using machine learning. We observed a global reorganization of
proteins across the secretory pathway, plasma membrane, and mitochondria,
including reorganization and processing of lysosomal proteins into distinct
subpopulations and translocations of individual proteins between organelles at
specific timepoints. We also demonstrate that MYO18A, an unconventional myosin
that translocates from the plasma membrane to the viral assembly complex, is
necessary for efficient HCMV replication. This study provides a comprehensive
resource for understanding host and virus biology during HCMV pathogenesis.
