Retrovirus-Host Cell Interaction

Head of research group: Prof. Dr. Norbert Bannert

The research work is concerned with analysing retroviral replication mechanisms to elucidate pathogenesis mechanisms and the development of strategies for infection prevention. A further focus is on investigations into cellular restrictions on the proliferation of endogenous and exogenous retroviruses with a focus on innate immunity.

In this context, work is currently being carried out on HIV-1 as part of the ProNANOS project, for which funding has been acquired from the Central Innovation Programme for SMEs (ZIM) of the Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection. The third-party funded project is analysing the role of tetraspanins during the HIV-1 infection process. The findings will be incorporated into the development of an innovative tetraspanin-based display technology (tAnchor) for infection prevention and diagnostics. In a doctoral project, research is also being conducted into the identification of HIV-1 virulence factors. Work on endogenous retroviruses is primarily being carried out on HERV-K(HML-2). HERV-K(HML-2) is the youngest and most active family of human endogenous retroviruses. Proteins and virus particles are found in tumour cells and are associated with cancer development processes, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and various autoimmune diseases.

As part of the DFG Priority Programme "Innate Sensing and Restriction of Retroviruses (SPP1923)", we focus on interferon-induced cellular sensors and restriction factors as well as on certain antiviral mechanisms against endogenous and exogenous retroviruses. A current focus is analysing the restriction of HERV-K(HML-2) by IFI16 and other proteins of the PYHIN family. The aim is to understand the recognition of retroviral nucleic acids and proteins by cellular infection sensors and the resulting consequences for transmission and virus replication as well as to work out group- and subtype-specific differences.

In another project funded by the RKI's Collaborative Research Centre (Sonderforschungsmittel), the team is working with members of the Department 34 to investigate immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 infection and vaccination in HIV patients.

The team's work should lead to a deeper understanding of the complex virus-host interactions. The knowledge gained will contribute to a more accurate assessment of the public health relevance of retroviruses and identify potential targets for new preventive measures and therapeutic interventions.

Please address enquiries about internships and Master's and Bachelor's theses to the head of the research group.
