intrinsic triggers of apoptosis?
inappropriate DNA synthesis
Extrinsic triggers of apoptosis
CTL
NK cells
Cytokines
why do some viruses perturb apoptosis?
prevent premature cell death allow an increase in viral replicatoin
why may viruses increase apoptosis?
ensure efficient spread of the virus during lytic infection
evades the inflammatory response unlike necrosis
3 extracellular mechanisms of apoptosis?
FAS ligand binding
TNFr
Death domain proteins (FADD)
how does FAS trigger extrinsic apoptosis?
interacts with fas ligand due to direct cell to cell contact
how does TNFr trigger extrinsic apoptosis?
soluable cytokines
TNF trimer binds to TNFr --> intracelular signalling
Caspase activation
Cell death
what are death domain proteins/
have specific domains which interact with other death domain proteins
activate caspases, exonucleases, proteases
lead to cell death
two proteins initiation intrinsic apoptosis
P53
BCL-2
4 viruses studied in apoptosis
ADV = linear dsDNA
HPV-16
SV40
HBV
how is p523 turned over in normal cells?
MDM-2 = ubiquitin ligase
when are p53 levels increased?
hypoxia
DNA damage
STRESS
what effect do the different types of cellular stress have on p53?
differential phosphorylation
What is the first attempt of p53 when induced?
stabilise DNA to allow for repair
if DNA can not be repaired how does p53 initiate apoptosis
binds Bax (pro-apoptotic)
what does Rb phosphorylation lead to and when?
at the end of G1 (P)Rb --> E2F dissociation and DNA replication
what control mechanism is in place to prevent over activation of genes if Rb is lost?
loss of Rb --> increased p53
how do oncogenic viruses deregulate cell cycle?
target both p53 and Rb
HPV protein interacting with Rb
HPV-16 E7
HPV protein interacting with p53?
HPV-16 E6
how does HPV target p53 for proteolytic degradation via e6?
induced E6AP binding to p53 --> ubiquitination
Viral proteins which bind to and innactivate p53
ADV - E1B
HPV - E6
SV40 - Large-T
HBV - pX
Viral proteins which bind to and inactivate Rb
ADV- E1a
HPV- E7
SV40 - large-T
What protein retains the MPTP closed?
Bcl-2 (anti-apoptotic)
PRotein opening the MPTP?
BAx (pro-apoptotic)
what does the opening of MPTP lead to?
lost of membrane potential
Cytochrome C release
Apoptosome formation
Caspase activation
DEATH
How do adenovirus, HSV, Vaccinia inhibit MPTP opeining?
encode Bcl-2 homologues
no membrane potential loss ect
how does HCMV prevent apoptosis (mitochondrial)
encodes an untranslated RNA in early infection
binds complex-I (NADH)
prevents complex-I mediated apoptosis induction

Rotenone- block HCMV
what is theER stress response triggered by?
unfolded proteins in the ER
ER stress response
BiP recruitment --> re-folding of proteins
ATF6 cleavage from BiP --> moves to nucleus to up regulate transcription
What happens if the proteins are not folded correctly after induction of ER chaperones?
UPR induction
Ca release
Caspase 12 activation
Apoptosis
how do viruses induce the UPR
viral infection --> unfolded proteins in the ER due to replicaiton sites e.g. DEngue, HCV
What is the role of PERK?
(part of ER stress response)
bound by BiP
(P) eIF2alpha
translational arrest
allows re-folding
how does HCMV block the UPR
blocks ATF6 cleavage and nuclear transloaction
no increase in UPR genes
how does TNFr cause extrinsic apoptosis?
increases phospholipase movement to membrane
activates caspase-8 which cleaves procaspase-3 initiation cell death
What does binding of FAS-L cause?
recruitment of other DD containing proteins
Apoptosis via caspase activation
which region of adenovirus expresses inhibitors of apoptosis?
E3
how does RID complex from adenovirus inhibit apoptosis?
removal of Fas from the cell surface
no ligand binding
how does ADV 14.7K block apoptosis?
inhibits caspas-8 activation
how does KSHV inhibit extrinsic apoptosis?
inhibits FADD
what do viruses encode to prevent FADD mediated caspase activation?
vFLIPS e.g. KSHV-K13
what does cowpox virus encode to inhibit extrinsic apoptosis?
CrmA - serine protease inhbitor
inhibits multiple caspases and granzyme B
how does TGF-B induce apoptosis?
triggers TF activity switching on p21 which blocks cyclin dependant kinases induces apoptosis via G1 arrest
how does latency avoid the immune system?
only LATs are produced no proteins
what is the function of LATs/
protect the neurone from apoptosis by promoting degredation of pro-apoptotic TGF-b

DICER mediated
