Detection and Tracking of Dual-Labeled HIV Particles Using Wide-Field Live Cell Imaging to Follow Viral Core Integrity

Abstract: Summary Live cell imaging is a valuable technique that allows the characterization of the dynamic processes of the HIV-1 life-cycle. Here, we present a method of production and imaging of dual-labeled HIV viral particles that allows the visualization of two events. Varying release of the intravirion fluid phase marker reveals virion fusion and the loss of the integrity of HIV viral cores with the use of live wide-field fluorescent microscopy.

“…Second, we assessed the role of fusion using HIV-1 virions incorporating betalactamase-Vpr (BlaM-Vpr). In this system, fusion can be detected following loading of cells with CCF2 as this fluorescent dye is a target of BlaM and, following its cleavage, its fluorescence emission changes to the blue spectrum (447 nm) 44,45 . Importantly, CCF2 cleavage was not altered by nutrient deprivation nor by α-KG supplementation, indicating that these metabolic changes modulated infection at a post fusion level ( Supplementary Fig.…”

“…However, many of the fundamental image data management limitations holding back "[…] the routine application of automated image analysis […] to large volumes of information generated by digital imaging" (verbatim from: Swedlow et al, 2003) are still in place even several years after the initial identification of the problem. As a case in point, the utilization of viral particle tracking to draw direct real-time correlations between alterations in viral mobility and underlying perturbations in the viral and cellular states, remains a considerable challenge even at low-throughput, and it is difficult if not impossible to scale to the systems biology level (Arhel et al, 2006;McDonald et al, 2002;Mamede et al, 2017;Mamede and Hope, 2016;Sood et al, 2017). As a result, most virology studies to date rely on biochemical and genetic analyses conducted in bulk and on the microscopic analysis of fixed cells, which fail to capture viral heterogeneity and the complexity of viral infection processes.…”

“…Even point mutations in CA can compromise infectivity through altering capsid assembly and/or stability (e.g., [ 5 ]). A recently introduced microscopy assay that may indirectly monitor HIV-1 uncoating live cells is based upon the assertion that a fraction of GFP molecules produced upon cleavage of Gag-iGFP precursor [ 13 ] is trapped within an intact mature core and is released at the time of uncoating [ 14 , 15 ]. However, further validation of the notion that a detectable number of GFP molecules is trapped in a considerable fraction of mature cores is needed.…”
