Projekt
Cytomegaloviren sind prototypische Vertreter der β-Subgruppe der Herpesviren, deren wichtigste Mitglieder das humane Cytomegalovirus (CMV; HCMV; HHV-5) und das murine Cytomegalovirus (MCMV, Murid herpesvirus 1) sind. Wie alle Herpesviren, etablieren auch Cytomegaloviren nach der Primärinfektion eine lebenslange Latenz, die nach stressreichen Phasen oder durch Beeinträchtigungen des Immunsystems zu einer Reaktivierung der Viren führen kann. Dies löst wiederkehrende Infektionen aus und ermöglicht eine Übertragung auf neue Wirte. Die Mehrheit der humanen Population ist latent mit HCMV infiziert. Symptome löst die HCMV-Infektion jedoch meist nur bei Individuen aus, deren Immunsystem unterentwickelt oder beeinträchtigt ist.
Üblicherweise kommt es nach Virusinfektionen zu einer Immunreaktion, die im Erfolgsfall zu der Elimination des Virus und einer anschließenden Immunität gegenüber dem gleichen Virus führt. Bei Herpesviren ist dies jedoch nicht der Fall. Herpesviren besitzen die Fähigkeit, sich dem Immunsystem des Wirts zu entziehen und eine sterile Immunität abzuwenden. Sie haben im Laufe der Evolution unzählige molekulare Maßnahmen entwickelt, um die meisten (alle?) relevanten Immunfunktionen des Wirts zu umgehen. Wir untersuchen diese viralen Immunevasionsmechanismen mit dem Ziel, spezifische pharmakologische Wirkstoffe zu finden, die die Funktion dieser viralen Proteine blockieren, dem Immunsystem so seine Aktivität gegenüber Herpesviren zurückgeben und dem Patienten helfen, sich selbst zu helfen. Da die Genome von Herpesviren gezielt genetisch modifiziert werden können, stellen Virusmutanten, denen Immunevasionsgene fehlen, darüber hinaus interessante Kandidaten für potentielle Lebendimpfstoffe und Vakzinvektoren dar. Außerdem sind herpesvirale Proteine sehr präzise molekulare Werkzeuge für die Grundlagenforschung, mit denen zelluläre Prozesse gezielt moduliert und blockiert werden können, um grundsätzliche Erkenntnisse über die Zelle bzw. das Immunsystem zu gewinnen.
