ABSTRACT
 
The use of adeno-associated virus type 2 (AAV) vectors has gained attention as a potentially useful alternative to the more commonly used retrovirus and adenovirus vectors for human gene therapy. However, the transduction efficiency of AAV vectors varies greatly in different cells and tissues in vitro and in vivo. We have documented that a cellular protein that binds the immunosuppressant drug FK506, termed the FK506-binding protein (FKBP52), interacts with the single-stranded D sequence within the AAV inverted terminal repeats, inhibits viral second-strand DNA synthesis, and consequently limits high-efficiency transgene expression (K. Qing, J. Hansen, K. A. Weigel-Kelley, M. Tan, S. Zhou, and A. Srivastava, J. Virol., 75: 8968-8976, 2001). FKBP52 can be phosphorylated at both tyrosine and serine/threonine residues, but only the phosphorylated forms of FKBP52 interact with the D sequence. Furthermore, the tyrosine-phosphorylated FKBP52 inhibits AAV second-strand DNA synthesis by greater than 90%, and the serine/threonine-phosphorylated FKBP52 causes ~40% inhibition, whereas the dephosphorylated FKBP52 has no effect on AAV second-strand DNA synthesis. In the present study, we have identified that the tyrosine-phosphorylated form of FKBP52 is a substrate for the cellular T-cell protein tyrosine phosphatase (TC-PTP). Deliberate overexpression of the murine wild-type (wt) TC-PTP gene, but not that of a cysteine-to-serine (C-S) mutant, caused tyrosine dephosphorylation of FKBP52, leading to efficient viral second-strand DNA synthesis and resulting in a significant increase in AAV-mediated transduction efficiency in HeLa cells in vitro. Both wt and C-S mutant TC-PTP expression cassettes were also used to generate transgenic mice. Primitive hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells from wt TC-PTP-transgenic mice, but not from C-S mutant TC-PTP-transgenic mice, could be successfully transduced by recombinant AAV vectors. These studies corroborate the fact that tyrosine phosphorylation of the cellular FKBP52 protein strongly influences AAV transduction efficiency, which may have important implications in the optimal use of AAV vectors in human gene therapy.

TEXT
 
Adeno-associated virus type 2 (AAV) is a nonpathogenic human parvovirus that contains a single-stranded DNA as its genome and requires coinfection with a helper virus, usually adenovirus, for its optimal replication (2, 28). In the absence of coinfection with the helper virus, the wild-type (wt) AAV establishes a latent infection and the viral genome integrates into human chromosomal DNA in a site-specific manner (19, 20, 38). The nonpathogenicity of AAV and the remarkable site specificity of its integration have led to the development of recombinant AAV vectors for gene transfer and gene therapy. Although recombinant AAV genomes appear not to integrate site specifically, AAV vectors have been successfully used to deliver genes to a wide variety of cells and tissues in vitro and in vivo (3, 4, 10, 11, 14-18, 26, 29-33, 39-41, 44-46, 48). AAV vectors have also been used in phase I clinical trials for gene therapy of cystic fibrosis and hemophilia B (10, 16). However, the transduction efficiency of AAV vectors has been reported to vary widely in different cell types. Two independent laboratories have reported that the rate-limiting step in transduction by AAV vectors is viral second-strand DNA synthesis (8, 9). We have previously documented the existence of a host cell protein that we designated the single-stranded D sequence-binding protein (ssD-BP), which interacts specifically with the D sequence within the inverted terminal repeat of the AAV genome, is phosphorylated at tyrosine residues by the cellular epidermal growth factor receptor protein tyrosine kinase EGFR-PTK, and inhibits viral second-strand DNA synthesis leading to inefficient transgene expression (22, 23, 34, 36, 37). We subsequently identified the ssD-BP to be FKBP52, a cellular chaperone protein (36).

In this report, we present evidence to document that the cellular protein that binds the immunosuppressant drug FK506, termed the FK506-binding protein (FKBP52), is dephosphorylated at tyrosine residues by the cellular T-cell protein tyrosine phosphatase (TC-PTP) (21, 47). Stable transfection of a murine TC-PTP expression plasmid catalyzes tyrosine dephosphorylation of FKBP52, leads to efficient viral second-strand DNA synthesis, and results in a significant increase in AAV-mediated transduction efficiency in established human cell lines as well as in primary cells from TC-PTP-transgenic mice. These studies have important implications in the optimal use of AAV vectors in human gene therapy.

Deliberate expression of TC-PTP leads to increased AAV-mediated transgene expression in HeLa cells. It was documented previously (36) that inhibition of AAV second-strand DNA synthesis and, consequently, AAV-mediated transgene expression by FKBP52 that had been phosphorylated at tyrosine residues was significantly higher than that at serine/threonine residues. Therefore, we set out in this study to identify the cellular tyrosine phosphatase responsible for catalyzing dephosphorylation of FKBP52. We reasoned that since AAV DNA synthesis occurs in the nucleus, tyrosine dephosphorylation of FKBP52 bound to AAV D sequence might also occur in the nucleus, which would be carried out by a protein tyrosine phosphatase present in the nucleus. One such candidate enzyme is TC-PTP (21, 47). We hypothesized that if FKBP52 is indeed dephosphorylated at tyrosine residues by TC-PTP, then deliberate overexpression of TC-PTP would lead to an increase in AAV transduction efficiency in HeLa cells. These cells contain FKBP52 that has been phosphorylated predominantly at tyrosine residues; although the cells are highly susceptible to AAV infection, they are poorly transduced by AAV vectors (34). Recombinant expression plasmids containing the Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) promoter-driven murine TC-PTP cDNA, either the wt TC-PTP or a mutant in which the catalytic cysteine residue in the active site had been replaced with a serine residue (C-S mutant TC-PTP), were used to stably transfect HeLa cells. Expression plasmids containing either the wt or the C-S mutant of an additional protein tyrosine phosphatase, PEST-PTP (1, 5), were also included in these experiments. TC-PTP gene expression was analyzed by Northern blotting and could be readily detected in transfected HeLa cells, whereas there was minimal expression of the endogenous gene in untransfected, control HeLa cells (data not shown). Highly purified stocks of a recombinant AAV vector containing the ß-galactosidase (lacZ) reporter gene driven by the cytomegalovirus (CMV) immediate-early promoter (vCMVp-lacZ) were generated as described previously (32, 33). Approximately equivalent numbers of untransfected HeLa cells or HeLa cells stably transfected with wt or C-S mutant TC-PTP or PEST-PTP expression plasmids were infected at 37°C for 2 h with 5 x 103 particles per cell of the vCMVp-lacZ vector and the ß-galactosidase activity was measured 48 h postinfection as previously described (12, 36). The results are shown in Fig. 1. As can be seen, although AAV transduction efficiency in HeLa cells stably transfected with either the wt or the C-S mutant PEST-PTP was not significantly different from that in untransfected HeLa cells, a nearly fourfold increase in AAV transduction efficiency in cells stably transfected with the wt TC-PTP expression plasmid was obtained. This increase was not seen when the C-S mutant TC-PTP expression plasmid was used. These results suggest that TC-PTP catalyzes tyrosine dephosphorylation of FKBP52, thereby leading to a lack of inhibition in viral second-strand DNA synthesis and increased transgene expression. These possibilities were tested experimentally as follows.

Mock-transfected (Mock) or transfected HeLa cells were either mock infected (Control) or infected with a recombinant AAV-lacZ vector under identical conditions. Transgene expression was evaluated 48 h postinfection. These data, expressed as relative light units (RLU) per microgram of total protein, were within the linear range of the assay and represent average values from two separate experiments performed in triplicate.

TC-PTP catalyzes tyrosine dephosphorylation of FKBP52. We wished to directly examine the effect of the deliberate expression of TC-PTP on the tyrosine phosphorylation status of FKBP52 by using electrophoretic mobility-shift assays (EMSAs). Whole cell extracts (WCE) from untransfected HeLa cells and those from wt and C-S mutant PEST-PTP- and TC-PTP-transfected cells were prepared according to the method described by Muller (27). Total protein concentration was determined by the Bio-Rad protein assay kit (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, Calif.), and the extracts were frozen in liquid N2 and stored at -70°C. EMSAs were performed as described previously (36, 37). Briefly, DNA-binding reactions were performed in a volume of 20 µl with 2 µg of poly(dI)-poly(dC), 2 µg of bovine serum albumin, and 12% glycerol in HEPES buffer (pH 7.9). Ten micrograms of protein from each WCE was preincubated for 10 min at 25°C followed by the addition of 10,000 cpm of 32P-labeled D sequence synthetic oligonucleotide (5'-AGGAACCCCTAGTGATGGAG-3') in the reaction mixture. The binding reaction was allowed to proceed for 30 min at 25°C. Bound complexes were separated from the unbound probe on low-ionic strength 4% polyacrylamide gels using Tris-glycine-EDTA buffer (pH 8.5) containing 50 mM Tris-HCl, 380 mM glycine, and 2 mM EDTA. Following electrophoresis, the gel was dried in vacuuo and autoradiographed with Kodak X-Omat film at -70°C. The results are shown in Fig. 2. As can be seen, the AAV D sequence probe (lane 1) formed a complex with the tyrosine-phosphorylated form of FKBP52 in untransfected HeLa cells (lane 2), consistent with previously published results (36). Similar complexes were detected in WCE prepared from HeLa cells stably transfected with either the wt (lane 3) or the C-S mutant (lane 4) PEST-PTP expression plasmid. Interestingly, in WCE prepared from HeLa cells stably transfected with the wt TC-PTP expression plasmid (lane 5), the complex migrated faster, consistent with that of the tyrosine-dephosphorylated form of FKBP52. This mobility shift was not observed with WCE prepared from HeLa cells that had been stably transfected with the C-S mutant TC-PTP expression plasmid (lane 6). These results corroborate the hypothesis that tyrosine-phosphorylated FKBP52 is a substrate for TC-PTP.

TC-PTP expression leads to increased AAV second-strand DNA synthesis. We next examined the effect of deliberate expression of the wt and the C-S mutant TC-PTP on the extent of AAV second-strand DNA synthesis. These assays were performed by infecting HeLa cells that were either not transfected or stably transfected with the wt or the C-S mutant TC-PTP expression plasmid or with a recombinant AAV-lacZ vector as described above. HeLa cells coinfected with wt adenovirus type 2 (Ad2), which is known to significantly enhance AAV second-strand DNA synthesis (8, 9, 37), were also included as a positive control. Low-Mr DNA was isolated from these cells 48 h postinfection and analyzed on Southern blots by using a lacZ-specific DNA probe as previously described (12, 13). As shown in Fig. 3, whereas no signal was detected in mock-infected HeLa cells (lane 1), major amounts of input genomic AAV vector were present as single strands in untransfected HeLa cells (lane 2), consistent with the observed low transduction efficiency of recombinant AAV vectors in these cells (12, 13, 37). In the presence of coinfection with Ad2 (lane 3), most of the viral genomes were converted to DNA duplex forms, presumably having undergone second-strand DNA synthesis consistent with their transcriptional activity (12, 13, 37). Interestingly, the input viral genomes were also readily converted into their duplex counterparts after second-strand DNA synthesis in HeLa cells stably transfected with the wt TC-PTP expression plasmid (lane 4). This effect was not seen in HeLa cells transfected with the C-S mutant TC-PTP expression plasmid (data not shown). Thus, TC-PTP-mediated tyrosine dephosphorylation of FKBP52 leads to efficient AAV second-strand DNA synthesis and results in an increase in AAV-mediated transgene expression.

Primary murine hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells from TC-PTP-transgenic mice can be successfully transduced by recombinant AAV vectors. In order to examine the role of TC-PTP-mediated tyrosine dephosphorylation of FKBP52 on AAV-mediated transgene expression in vivo, we also generated transgenic mice expressing the murine wt or the C-S mutant TC-PTP gene, using normal C3HeB/FeJ mice. TC-PTP-transgenic mice were identified by PCR amplification of genomic DNA samples from tail snips by using the RSV promoter-TC-PTP gene-specific primer pair (5'-CGGTTAAATGTGCACAGTACTGGCC-3' and 5'-CTACAACGAGAAGGTGCGAGAGC-3'). Primitive Sca1+, lin- hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells were isolated from three nontransgenic, wt TC-PTP-, and C-S mutant TC-PTP-transgenic mice each as previously described (44) and infected with the recombinant AAV-lacZ vector under conditions identical to those described above. Transgene expression was determined 48 h postinfection. These results are shown in Fig. 4. It is evident that although AAV transduction efficiency in primary murine hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells from normal mice was low, as observed previously (34), cells from the wt TC-PTP-transgenic mice could be transduced by AAV vectors with significantly higher efficiency. Sca1+, lin- cells from the C-S mutant TC-PTP-transgenic mice, on the other hand, could not be transduced efficiently with the AAV vector. These studies further support our contention that TC-PTP-mediated tyrosine dephosphorylation of FKBP52 is a crucial determinant of AAV transduction efficiency.

  		FIG. 4. Comparative analyses of AAV-mediated transduction efficiency in primary murine ScaI+, Lin- primitive hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells from nontransgenic and wt or C-S mutant TC-PTP-transgenic mice. Cells from nontransgenic mice were either mock infected (Mock) or infected (Control) with the recombinant AAV-lacZ vector under conditions identical to those for transgenic mice. The data are from cells obtained from three animals in each group and represent the average values from two separate experiments performed in triplicate.

It has become increasingly clear that AAV vectors have gained prominence as a useful alternative to the more commonly used retroviral and adenoviral vectors for human gene therapy (24). However, it has also become clear that AAV vectors encounter at least three major obstacles in certain cell types that negatively affect high-efficiency transduction by these vectors. These obstacles include (i) lack of optimal expression of the cellular receptor heparan sulfate proteoglycan HSPG for viral binding (43) and lack of optimal expression of the coreceptors fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) and/or {alpha}Vß5 integrin for viral entry (35, 42), (ii) impaired endosomal processing leading to inefficient intracellular viral trafficking into the nucleus (6, 7, 12, 13), and (iii) the inability of AAV to synthesize its second-strand DNA to become transcriptionally active (8, 9) due to the presence of phosphorylated forms of FKBP52 (22, 23, 34, 36, 37). Of the three, it appeared that the last obstacle was most amenable to be overcome since in previous studies from our laboratory, we were able to modulate the phosphorylation status of FKBP52 to achieve high-efficiency transduction by AAV vectors by using specific inhibitors of cellular tyrosine kinases (22, 23, 34, 36, 37). However, more often than not, these inhibitors are cytotoxic to primary cells. This prompted us to explore the alternative by way of identification of the putative cellular tyrosine phosphatase responsible for catalyzing tyrosine dephosphorylation of FKBP52 in the hope of exploiting this enzyme to achieve the same objective. The potential involvement of a cellular tyrosine phosphatase in AAV-mediated transduction has previously been proposed (39). The identification of TC-PTP as the key protein tyrosine phosphatase in our present studies and its seemingly harmless deliberate expression in vitro and in vivo to significantly enhance AAV transduction efficiency both in established human cell lines and primary murine cells bode well for its eventual use in primary human cells. One such strategy we envisage is the use of recently described self-complementary AAV (scAAV) vectors (25) carrying the wt TC-PTP gene. These scAAV-TC-PTP vectors could be admixed with any conventional recombinant AAV vector prior to transduction. Under optimal conditions, transient expression of TC-PTP from the scAAV vector, which would not require viral second-strand DNA synthesis, would cause tyrosine dephosphorylation of FKBP52 which in turn would lead to more efficient second-strand DNA synthesis of the conventional AAV vector, resulting in stable, high-efficiency transgene expression.

Although this attractive possibility remains to be tested experimentally, at the very least, the availability of TC-PTP-transgenic mice should allow us to gain further knowledge of the role of this crucial protein tyrosine phosphatase in AAV-mediated gene transfer in a variety of different cell and tissue types, which should have important implications in the optimal use of recombinant AAV vectors in human gene therapy.
