text: Poxviruses are among the largest double-stranded DNA viruses, with members
such as variola virus, monkeypox virus and the vaccination strain vaccinia virus
(VACV). Knowledge about the structural proteins that form the viral core has remained
sparse. While major core proteins have been annotated via indirect experimental
evidence, their structures have remained elusive and they could not be assigned
to individual core features. Hence, which proteins constitute which layers of
the core, such as the palisade layer and the inner core wall, has remained enigmatic.
Here we show, using a multi-modal cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) approach
in combination with AlphaFold molecular modeling, that trimers formed by the cleavage
product of VACV protein A10 are the key component of the palisade layer. This
allows us to place previously obtained descriptions of protein interactions within
the core wall into perspective and to provide a detailed model of poxvirus core
architecture. Importantly, we show that interactions within A10 trimers are likely
generalizable over members of orthopox- and parapoxviruses.

text: A precise quantitative description of the ultrastructural characteristics
underlying biological mechanisms is often key to their understanding. This is
particularly true for dynamic extra- and intracellular filamentous assemblies,
playing a role in cell motility, cell integrity, cytokinesis, tissue formation
and maintenance. For example, genetic manipulation or modulation of actin regulatory
proteins frequently manifests in changes of the morphology, dynamics, and ultrastructural
architecture of actin filament-rich cell peripheral structures, such as lamellipodia
or filopodia. However, the observed ultrastructural effects often remain subtle
and require sufficiently large datasets for appropriate quantitative analysis.
The acquisition of such large datasets has been enabled by recent advances in
high-throughput cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) methods. This also necessitates
the development of complementary approaches to maximize the extraction of relevant
biological information. We have developed a computational toolbox for the semi-automatic
quantification of segmented and vectorized fila- mentous networks from pre-processed
cryo-electron tomograms, facilitating the analysis and cross-comparison of multiple
experimental conditions. GUI-based components simplify the processing of data
and allow users to obtain a large number of ultrastructural parameters describing
filamentous assemblies. We demonstrate the feasibility of this workflow by analyzing
cryo-ET data of untreated and chemically perturbed branched actin filament networks
and that of parallel actin filament arrays. In principle, the computational toolbox
presented here is applicable for data analysis comprising any type of filaments
in regular (i.e. parallel) or random arrangement. We show that it can ease the
identification of key differences between experimental groups and facilitate the
in-depth analysis of ultrastructural data in a time-efficient manner.

text: "Regulation of the Arp2/3 complex is required for productive nucleation of
branched actin networks. An emerging aspect of regulation is the incorporation
of subunit isoforms into the Arp2/3 complex. Specifically, both ArpC5 subunit
isoforms, ArpC5 and ArpC5L, have been reported to fine-tune nucleation activity
and branch junction stability. We have combined reverse genetics and cellular
structural biology to describe how ArpC5 and ArpC5L differentially affect cell
migration. Both define the structural stability of ArpC1 in branch junctions and,
in turn, by determining protrusion characteristics, affect protein dynamics and
actin network ultrastructure. ArpC5 isoforms also affect the positioning of members
of the Ena/Vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) family of actin filament
elongators, which mediate ArpC5 isoform–specific effects on the actin assembly
level. Our results suggest that ArpC5 and Ena/VASP proteins are part of a signaling
pathway enhancing cell migration.\r\n"

text: Toscana virus is a major cause of arboviral disease in humans in the Mediterranean
basin during summer. However, early virus-host cell interactions and entry mechanisms
remain poorly characterized. Investigating iPSC-derived human neurons and cell
lines, we found that virus binding to the cell surface was specific, and 50% of
bound virions were endocytosed within 10 min. Virions entered Rab5a+ early endosomes
and, subsequently, Rab7a+ and LAMP-1+ late endosomal compartments. Penetration
required intact late endosomes and occurred within 30 min following internalization.
Virus entry relied on vacuolar acidification, with an optimal pH for viral membrane
fusion at pH 5.5. The pH threshold increased to 5.8 with longer pre-exposure of
virions to the slightly acidic pH in early endosomes. Strikingly, the particles
remained infectious after entering late endosomes with a pH below the fusion threshold.
Overall, our study establishes Toscana virus as a late-penetrating virus and reveals
an atypical use of vacuolar acidity by this virus to enter host cells.

text: Regulation of the Arp2/3 complex is required for productive nucleation of
branched actin networks. An emerging aspect of regulation is the incorporation
of subunit isoforms into the Arp2/3 complex. Specifically, both ArpC5 subunit
isoforms, ArpC5 and ArpC5L, have been reported to fine-tune nucleation activity
and branch junction stability. We have combined reverse genetics and cellular
structural biology to describe how ArpC5 and ArpC5L differentially affect cell
migration. Both define the structural stability of ArpC1 in branch junctions and,
in turn, by determining protrusion characteristics, affect protein dynamics and
actin network ultrastructure. ArpC5 isoforms also affect the positioning of members
of the Ena/Vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) family of actin filament
elongators, which mediate ArpC5 isoform–specific effects on the actin assembly
level. Our results suggest that ArpC5 and Ena/VASP proteins are part of a signaling
pathway enhancing cell migration.

text: The actin cytoskeleton plays a key role in cell migration and cellular morphodynamics
in most eukaryotes. The ability of the actin cytoskeleton to assemble and disassemble
in a spatiotemporally controlled manner allows it to form higher-order structures,
which can generate forces required for a cell to explore and navigate through
its environment. It is regulated not only via a complex synergistic and competitive
interplay between actin-binding proteins (ABP), but also by filament biochemistry
and filament geometry. The lack of structural insights into how geometry and ABPs
regulate the actin cytoskeleton limits our understanding of the molecular mechanisms
that define actin cytoskeleton remodeling and, in turn, impact emerging cell migration
characteristics. With the advent of cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and advanced
computational methods, it is now possible to define these molecular mechanisms
involving actin and its interactors at both atomic and ultra-structural levels
in vitro and in cellulo. In this review, we will provide an overview of the available
cryo-EM methods, applicable to further our understanding of the actin cytoskeleton,
specifically in the context of cell migration. We will discuss how these methods
have been employed to elucidate ABP- and geometry-defined regulatory mechanisms
in initiating, maintaining, and disassembling cellular actin networks in migratory
protrusions.

text: The potential of energy filtering and direct electron detection for cryo-electron
microscopy (cryo-EM) has been well documented. Here, we assess the performance
of recently introduced hardware for cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) and subtomogram
averaging (STA), an increasingly popular structural determination method for complex
3D specimens. We acquired cryo-ET datasets of EIAV virus-like particles (VLPs)
on two contemporary cryo-EM systems equipped with different energy filters and
direct electron detectors (DED), specifically a Krios G4, equipped with a cold
field emission gun (CFEG), Thermo Fisher Scientific Selectris X energy filter,
and a Falcon 4 DED; and a Krios G3i, with a Schottky field emission gun (XFEG),
a Gatan Bioquantum energy filter, and a K3 DED. We performed constrained cross-correlation-based
STA on equally sized datasets acquired on the respective systems. The resulting
EIAV CA hexamer reconstructions show that both systems perform comparably in the
4–6 Å resolution range based on Fourier-Shell correlation (FSC). In addition,
by employing a recently introduced multiparticle refinement approach, we obtained
a reconstruction of the EIAV CA hexamer at 2.9 Å. Our results demonstrate the
potential of the new generation of energy filters and DEDs for STA, and the effects
of using different processing pipelines on their STA outcomes.

text: 'One hallmark of plant cells is their cell wall. They protect cells against
the environment and high turgor and mediate morphogenesis through the dynamics
of their mechanical and chemical properties. The walls are a complex polysaccharidic
structure. Although their biochemical composition is well known, how the different
components organize in the volume of the cell wall and interact with each other
is not well understood and yet is key to the wall’s mechanical properties. To
investigate the ultrastructure of the plant cell wall, we imaged the walls of
onion (Allium cepa) bulbs in a near-native state via cryo-focused ion beam milling
(cryo-FIB milling) and cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET). This allowed the high-resolution
visualization of cellulose fibers in situ. We reveal the coexistence of dense
fiber fields bathed in a reticulated matrix we termed “meshing,” which is more
abundant at the inner surface of the cell wall. The fibers adopted a regular bimodal
angular distribution at all depths in the cell wall and bundled according to their
orientation, creating layers within the cell wall. Concomitantly, employing homogalacturonan
(HG)-specific enzymatic digestion, we observed changes in the meshing, suggesting
that it is—at least in part—composed of HG pectins. We propose the following model
for the construction of the abaxial epidermal primary cell wall: the cell deposits
successive layers of cellulose fibers at −45° and +45° relative to the cell’s
long axis and secretes the surrounding HG-rich meshing proximal to the plasma
membrane, which then migrates to more distal regions of the cell wall.'

text: With more than 80 members worldwide, the Orthobunyavirus genus in the Peribunyaviridae
family is a large genus of enveloped RNA viruses, many of which are emerging pathogens
in humans and livestock. How orthobunyaviruses (OBVs) penetrate and infect mammalian
host cells remains poorly characterized. Here, we investigated the entry mechanisms
of the OBV Germiston (GERV). Viral particles were visualized by cryo-electron
microscopy and appeared roughly spherical with an average diameter of 98 nm. Labeling
of the virus with fluorescent dyes did not adversely affect its infectivity and
allowed the monitoring of single particles in fixed and live cells. Using this
approach, we found that endocytic internalization of bound viruses was asynchronous
and occurred within 30-40 min. The virus entered Rab5a+ early endosomes and, subsequently,
late endosomal vacuoles containing Rab7a but not LAMP-1. Infectious entry did
not require proteolytic cleavage, and endosomal acidification was sufficient and
necessary for viral fusion. Acid-activated penetration began 15-25 min after initiation
of virus internalization and relied on maturation of early endosomes to late endosomes.
The optimal pH for viral membrane fusion was slightly below 6.0, and penetration
was hampered when the potassium influx was abolished. Overall, our study provides
real-time visualization of GERV entry into host cells and demonstrates the importance
of late endosomal maturation in facilitating OBV penetration.

text: De novo loss of function mutations in the ubiquitin ligase-encoding gene Cullin3
lead to autism spectrum disorder (ASD). In mouse, constitutive haploinsufficiency
leads to motor coordination deficits as well as ASD-relevant social and cognitive
impairments. However, induction of Cul3 haploinsufficiency later in life does
not lead to ASD-relevant behaviors, pointing to an important role of Cul3 during
a critical developmental window. Here we show that Cul3 is essential to regulate
neuronal migration and, therefore, constitutive Cul3 heterozygous mutant mice
display cortical lamination abnormalities. At the molecular level, we found that
Cul3 controls neuronal migration by tightly regulating the amount of Plastin3
(Pls3), a previously unrecognized player of neural migration. Furthermore, we
found that Pls3 cell-autonomously regulates cell migration by regulating actin
cytoskeleton organization, and its levels are inversely proportional to neural
migration speed. Finally, we provide evidence that cellular phenotypes associated
with autism-linked gene haploinsufficiency can be rescued by transcriptional activation
of the intact allele in vitro, offering a proof of concept for a potential therapeutic
approach for ASDs.

text: Inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6) is an assembly cofactor for HIV-1. We report
here that IP6 is also used for assembly of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV), a retrovirus
from a different genus. IP6 is ~100-fold more potent at promoting RSV mature capsid
protein (CA) assembly than observed for HIV-1 and removal of IP6 in cells reduces
infectivity by 100-fold. Here, visualized by cryo-electron tomography and subtomogram
averaging, mature capsid-like particles show an IP6-like density in the CA hexamer,
coordinated by rings of six lysines and six arginines. Phosphate and IP6 have
opposing effects on CA in vitro assembly, inducing formation of T = 1 icosahedrons
and tubes, respectively, implying that phosphate promotes pentamer and IP6 hexamer
formation. Subtomogram averaging and classification optimized for analysis of
pleomorphic retrovirus particles reveal that the heterogeneity of mature RSV CA
polyhedrons results from an unexpected, intrinsic CA hexamer flexibility. In contrast,
the CA pentamer forms rigid units organizing the local architecture. These different
features of hexamers and pentamers determine the structural mechanism to form
CA polyhedrons of variable shape in mature RSV particles.

text: The small cellular molecule inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6) has been known
for ~20 years to promote the in vitro assembly of HIV-1 into immature virus-like
particles. However, the molecular details underlying this effect have been determined
only recently, with the identification of the IP6 binding site in the immature
Gag lattice. IP6 also promotes formation of the mature capsid protein (CA) lattice
via a second IP6 binding site, and enhances core stability, creating a favorable
environment for reverse transcription. IP6 also enhances assembly of other retroviruses,
from both the Lentivirus and the Alpharetrovirus genera. These findings suggest
that IP6 may have a conserved function throughout the family Retroviridae. Here,
we discuss the different steps in the viral life cycle that are influenced by
IP6, and describe in detail how IP6 interacts with the immature and mature lattices
of different retroviruses.

text: A precise quantitative description of the ultrastructural characteristics
underlying biological mechanisms is often key to their understanding. This is
particularly true for dynamic extra- and intracellular filamentous assemblies,
playing a role in cell motility, cell integrity, cytokinesis, tissue formation
and maintenance. For example, genetic manipulation or modulation of actin regulatory
proteins frequently manifests in changes of the morphology, dynamics, and ultrastructural
architecture of actin filament-rich cell peripheral structures, such as lamellipodia
or filopodia. However, the observed ultrastructural effects often remain subtle
and require sufficiently large datasets for appropriate quantitative analysis.
The acquisition of such large datasets has been enabled by recent advances in
high-throughput cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) methods. This also necessitates
the development of complementary approaches to maximize the extraction of relevant
biological information. We have developed a computational toolbox for the semi-automatic
quantification of segmented and vectorized filamentous networks from pre-processed
cryo-electron tomograms, facilitating the analysis and cross-comparison of multiple
experimental conditions. GUI-based components simplify the processing of data
and allow users to obtain a large number of ultrastructural parameters describing
filamentous assemblies. We demonstrate the feasibility of this workflow by analyzing
cryo-ET data of untreated and chemically perturbed branched actin filament networks
and that of parallel actin filament arrays. In principle, the computational toolbox
presented here is applicable for data analysis comprising any type of filaments
in regular (i.e. parallel) or random arrangement. We show that it can ease the
identification of key differences between experimental groups and facilitate the
in-depth analysis of ultrastructural data in a time-efficient manner.

text: Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) of cellular specimens provides insights
into biological processes and structures within a native context. However, a major
challenge still lies in the efficient and reproducible preparation of adherent
cells for subsequent cryo-EM analysis. This is due to the sensitivity of many
cellular specimens to the varying seeding and culturing conditions required for
EM experiments, the often limited amount of cellular material and also the fragility
of EM grids and their substrate. Here, we present low-cost and reusable 3D printed
grid holders, designed to improve specimen preparation when culturing challenging
cellular samples directly on grids. The described grid holders increase cell culture
reproducibility and throughput, and reduce the resources required for cell culturing.
We show that grid holders can be integrated into various cryo-EM workflows, including
micro-patterning approaches to control cell seeding on grids, and for generating
samples for cryo-focused ion beam milling and cryo-electron tomography experiments.
Their adaptable design allows for the generation of specialized grid holders customized
to a large variety of applications.

text: The actin-related protein (Arp)2/3 complex nucleates branched actin filament
networks pivotal for cell migration, endocytosis and pathogen infection. Its activation
is tightly regulated and involves complex structural rearrangements and actin
filament binding, which are yet to be understood. Here, we report a 9.0 Å resolution
structure of the actin filament Arp2/3 complex branch junction in cells using
cryo-electron tomography and subtomogram averaging. This allows us to generate
an accurate model of the active Arp2/3 complex in the branch junction and its
interaction with actin filaments. Notably, our model reveals a previously undescribed
set of interactions of the Arp2/3 complex with the mother filament, significantly
different to the previous branch junction model. Our structure also indicates
a central role for the ArpC3 subunit in stabilizing the active conformation.

text: 'Retrovirus assembly is driven by the multidomain structural protein Gag.
Interactions between the capsid domains (CA) of Gag result in Gag multimerization,
leading to an immature virus particle that is formed by a protein lattice based
on dimeric, trimeric, and hexameric protein contacts. Among retroviruses the inter-
and intra-hexamer contacts differ, especially in the N-terminal sub-domain of
CA (CANTD). For HIV-1 the cellular molecule inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6) interacts
with and stabilizes the immature hexamer, and is required for production of infectious
virus particles. We have used in vitro assembly, cryo-electron tomography and
subtomogram averaging, atomistic molecular dynamics simulations and mutational
analyses to study the HIV-related lentivirus equine infectious anemia virus (EIAV).
In particular, we sought to understand the structural conservation of the immature
lentivirus lattice and the role of IP6 in EIAV assembly. Similar to HIV-1, IP6
strongly promoted in vitro assembly of EIAV Gag proteins into virus-like particles
(VLPs), which took three morphologically highly distinct forms: narrow tubes,
wide tubes, and spheres. Structural characterization of these VLPs to sub-4Å resolution
unexpectedly showed that all three morphologies are based on an immature lattice
with preserved key structural components, highlighting the structural versatility
of CA to form immature assemblies. A direct comparison between EIAV and HIV revealed
that both lentiviruses maintain similar immature interfaces, which are established
by both conserved and non-conserved residues. In both EIAV and HIV-1, IP6 regulates
immature assembly via conserved lysine residues within the CACTD and SP. Lastly,
we demonstrate that IP6 stimulates in vitro assembly of immature particles of
several other retroviruses in the lentivirus genus, suggesting a conserved role
for IP6 in lentiviral assembly.'

text: Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) of cellular specimens provides insights
into biological processes and structures within a native context. However, a major
challenge still lies in the efficient and reproducible preparation of adherent
cells for subsequent cryo-EM analysis. This is due to the sensitivity of many
cellular specimens to the varying seeding and culturing conditions required for
EM experiments, the often limited amount of cellular material and also the fragility
of EM grids and their substrate. Here, we present low-cost and reusable 3D printed
grid holders, designed to improve specimen preparation when culturing challenging
cellular samples directly on grids. The described grid holders increase cell culture
reproducibility and throughput, and reduce the resources required for cell culturing.
We show that grid holders can be integrated into various cryo-EM workflows, including
micro-patterning approaches to control cell seeding on grids, and for generating
samples for cryo-focused ion beam milling and cryo-electron tomography experiments.
Their adaptable design allows for the generation of specialized grid holders customized
to a large variety of applications.

text: Describing the protein interactions that form pleomorphic and asymmetric viruses
represents a considerable challenge to most structural biology techniques, including
X-ray crystallography and single particle cryo-electron microscopy. Obtaining
a detailed understanding of these interactions is nevertheless important, considering
the number of relevant human pathogens that do not follow strict icosahedral or
helical symmetry. Cryo-electron tomography and subtomogram averaging methods provide
structural insights into complex biological environments and are well suited to
go beyond structures of perfectly symmetric viruses. This chapter discusses recent
developments showing that cryo-ET and subtomogram averaging can provide high-resolution
insights into hitherto unknown structural features of pleomorphic and asymmetric
virus particles. It also describes how these methods have significantly added
to our understanding of retrovirus capsid assemblies in immature and mature viruses.
Additional examples of irregular viruses and their associated proteins, whose
structures have been studied via cryo-ET and subtomogram averaging, further support
the versatility of these methods.

text: Cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) provides unprecedented insights into the
molecular constituents of biological environments. In combination with an image
processing method called subtomogram averaging (STA), detailed 3D structures of
biological molecules can be obtained in large, irregular macromolecular assemblies
or in situ, without the need for purification. The contextual meta-information
these methods also provide, such as a protein’s location within its native environment,
can then be combined with functional data. This allows the derivation of a detailed
view on the physiological or pathological roles of proteins from the molecular
to cellular level. Despite their tremendous potential in in situ structural biology,
cryo-ET and STA have been restricted by methodological limitations, such as the
low obtainable resolution. Exciting progress now allows one to reach unprecedented
resolutions in situ, ranging in optimal cases beyond the nanometer barrier. Here,
I review current frontiers and future challenges in routinely determining high-resolution
structures in in situ environments using cryo-ET and STA.

text: Retroviruses assemble and bud from infected cells in an immature form and
require proteolytic maturation for infectivity. The CA (capsid) domains of the
Gag polyproteins assemble a protein lattice as a truncated sphere in the immature
virion. Proteolytic cleavage of Gag induces dramatic structural rearrangements;
a subset of cleaved CA subsequently assembles into the mature core, whose architecture
varies among retroviruses. Murine leukemia virus (MLV) is the prototypical γ-retrovirus
and serves as the basis of retroviral vectors, but the structure of the MLV CA
layer is unknown. Here we have combined X-ray crystallography with cryoelectron
tomography to determine the structures of immature and mature MLV CA layers within
authentic viral particles. This reveals the structural changes associated with
maturation, and, by comparison with HIV-1, uncovers conserved and variable features.
In contrast to HIV-1, most MLV CA is used for assembly of the mature core, which
adopts variable, multilayered morphologies and does not form a closed structure.
Unlike in HIV-1, there is similarity between protein–protein interfaces in the
immature MLV CA layer and those in the mature CA layer, and structural maturation
of MLV could be achieved through domain rotations that largely maintain hexameric
interactions. Nevertheless, the dramatic architectural change on maturation indicates
that extensive disassembly and reassembly are required for mature core growth.
The core morphology suggests that wrapping of the genome in CA sheets may be sufficient
to protect the MLV ribonucleoprotein during cell entry.
