Equine infectious anemia virus entry occurs through clathrin-mediated endocytosis.
Abstract: Entry of wild-type lentivirus equine infectious anemia virus (EIAV) into cells requires a low-pH step. This low-pH constraint implicates endocytosis in EIAV entry. To identify the endocytic pathway involved in EIAV entry, we examined the entry requirements for EIAV into two different cells: equine dermal (ED) cells and primary equine endothelial cells. We investigated the entry mechanism of several strains of EIAV and found that both macrophage-tropic and tissue culture-adapted strains utilize clathrin-coated pits for entry. In contrast, a superinfecting strain of EIAV, EIAV(vMA-1c), utilizes two mechanisms of entry. In cells such as ED cells that EIAV(vMA-1c) is able to superinfect, viral entry is pH independent and appears to be mediated by plasma membrane fusion, whereas in cells where no detectable superinfection occurs, EIAV(vMA-1c) entry that is low-pH dependent occurs through clathrin-coated pits in a manner similar to wild-type virus. Regardless of the mechanism of entry being utilized, the internalization kinetics of EIAV is rapid with 50% of cell-associated virions internalizing within 60 to 90 min. Cathepsin inhibitors did not prevent EIAV entry, suggesting that the low-pH step required by wild-type EIAV is not required to activate cellular cathepsins.

The study investigates how the equine infectious anemia virus (EIAV), a type of lentivirus, enters cells. The researchers discovered that various strains of EIAV, including both macrophage-tropic and tissue-culture adapted strains, use clathrin-coated pits for cell entry. Another strain, EIAV(vMA-1c), could enter cells through two different mechanisms.
Virus and Cell Types
- The study focused on a lentivirus known as EIAV, which is known to require a low-pH environment to enter a cell.
- The entry process of this virus was investigated in different cell types, including equine dermal (ED) cells and primary equine endothelial cells.
Study Findings
- The researchers found that both macropage-tropic and tissue culture-adapted strains of the virus used clathrin-coated pits, structures on the surface of cells involved in the process of endocytosis, for entering the cells.
- A different strain of the virus, EIAV(vMA-1c), demonstrated two distinct entry mechanisms. One involved plasma membrane fusion in certain cell types where the strain could superinfect. This process was pH-independent, contrary to what is usually required for EIAV.
- The same EIAV(vMA-1c) strain also utilized a mechanism similar to the wild-type virus in cells where it couldn’t superinfect. This involved low-pH-dependent entry through clathrin-coated pits.
- Regardless of which method the virus used to enter the cell, the internalization process was quick, with 50% of the attached viruses entering within 60 to 90 minutes.
Implications
- The researchers noted that using cathepsin inhibitors did not prevent EIAV from entering cells. This suggests that the low-pH step required for most EIAV strains is not necessary to activate cellular cathepsins, enzymes in the cell that are typically involved in intracellular protein breakdown.
- Understanding the different mechanisms viruses use to enter cells can provide valuable insights that could lead to the development of better antiviral therapies.
