    To establish productive infection, a retrovirus must insert a DNA replica of its genome into host cell chromosomal DNA1,2. This process is operated by the intasome, a nucleoprotein complex composed of an integrase tetramer (IN) assembled on the viral DNA ends3,4. The intasome engages chromosomal DNA within a target capture complex to carry out strand transfer, irreversibly joining the viral and cellular DNA molecules. Although several intasome/transpososome structures from the DDE(D) recombinase superfamily have been reported4,5,6, the mechanics of target DNA capture and strand transfer by these enzymes remained unclear. Here we report crystal structures of the intasome from prototype foamy virus in complex with target DNA, elucidating the pre-integration target DNA capture and post-catalytic strand transfer intermediates of the retroviral integration process. The cleft between IN dimers within the intasome accommodates chromosomal DNA in a severely bent conformation, allowing widely spaced IN active sites to access the scissile phosphodiester bonds. Our results resolve the structural basis for retroviral DNA integration and provide a framework for the design of INs with altered target sequences.

    Electron cryotomography of bacterial cells

    , Jove-Journal of Visualized Experiments, Vol: 39, ISSN: 1940-087X

    While much is already known about the basic metabolism of bacterial cells, many fundamental questions are still surprisingly unanswered,including for instance how they generate and maintain specific cell shapes, establish polarity, segregate their genomes, and divide. In orderto understand these phenomena, imaging technologies are needed that bridge the resolution gap between fluorescence light microscopy andhigher-resolution methods such as X-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy.Electron cryotomography (ECT) is an emerging technology that does just this, allowing the ultrastructure of cells to be visualized in a near-nativestate, in three dimensions (3D), with "macromolecular" resolution (~4nm).1, 2 In ECT, cells are imaged in a vitreous, "frozen-hydrated" state ina cryo transmission electron microscope (cryoTEM) at low temperature (< -180°C). For slender cells (up to ~500 nm in thickness3), intact cellsare plunge-frozen within media across EM grids in cryogens such as ethane or ethane/propane mixtures. Thicker cells and biofilms can alsobe imaged in a vitreous state by first "high-pressure freezing" and then, "cryo-sectioning" them. A series of two-dimensional projection imagesare then collected through the sample as it is incrementally tilted along one or two axes. A three-dimensional reconstruction, or "tomogram" canthen be calculated from the images. While ECT requires expensive instrumentation, in recent years, it has been used in a few labs to reveal thestructures of various external appendages, the structures of different cell envelopes, the positions and structures of cytoskeletal filaments, andthe locations and architectures of large macromolecular assemblies such as flagellar motors, internal compartments and chemoreceptor arrays.1,2In this video article we illustrate how to image cells with ECT, including the processes of sample preparation, data collection, tomogramreconstruction, and interpre
