STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH 
       [0001]    This invention was made with U.S. Government support under grant number R03A1110174, awarded by the National Institutes of Health. The U.S. government has certain rights in the invention. 
     
    
     BACKGROUND 
       [0002]    Nuclear migration, e.g., HIV nuclear migration and integration, is a decisive step in the establishment of viral infection, or viral latency when cellular conditions are not favorable. Studying HIV nuclear migration is critically important for understanding regulations of viral infection and latency, as exemplified by recent studies showing dramatic effects on viral nuclear migration by chemokines. However, currently, no convenient tools for measuring HIV nuclear migration exist. At present, viral nuclear localization can be measured by a surrogate maker, the 2-LTR circle, which only accumulates in the nucleus. Viral nuclear DNA can also be directly measured by performing nuclear fractionation to quantify total viral DNA in the nucleus. Both of these assays have limitations. The 2-LTR circle quantification is insensitive at early time points (before 12 hours), and particularly in resting CD4 T cells, where 2-LTR circles are difficult to detect without T cell activation. Frequently, early nuclear migration in resting T cells can only be measured by nuclear fractionation, which requires multiple fractionation controls, and is both time-consuming and prone to experimental errors. 
         [0003]    Despite advances in methods to determine nuclear migration, e.g., HIV nuclear migration and integration, there is still a scarcity of rapid, convenient, and sensitive methods and compositions to determine nuclear migration. These needs and other needs are satisfied by the present invention.

       BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES 
         [0012]    The accompanying figures, which are incorporated in and constitute a part of this specification, illustrate several aspects and together with the description serve to explain the principles of the invention. 
           [0013]      FIG. 1A  shows a schematic representation of pNL4-3 (alternatively referred to as the HIV-1 NL4-3  proviral plasmid).  FIG. 1B  shows a schematic representation of a representative disclosed recombinant DNA construct comprising a CMV promotor (designated as “CMV” in the figure) operably linked to a coding region encoding a fusion protein comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a luciferase polypeptide (designated as “NL” in the figure) inframe with a nucleotide sequence encdoing a LMO2 polypeptide inframe with a nucleotide sequence encoding a Vpr polypeptide, with the coding region operably linked to a polyadenylation signal sequence (designated as “pA” in the figure).  FIG. 1C  shows a schematic representation of a disclosed assay method. Briefly, a recombinant DNA construct for a fusion protein comprising a luciferase polypeptide, a LMO2 polypeptide, and a Vpr polypeptide (designated as “NanoLuc-LMO2-Vpr”) is provided in trans during virion production from a proviral plasmid (designated as “HIVNL4-3 Proviral Plasmid” in the figure), resulting in the packaging of the reporter protein. Infection of a target cell results in nuclear trafficking of the Vpr fusion protein, whereupon it can interact with the BRET acceptor fusion protein comprising a LDB1 polypeptide and a reporter polypeptide, HaloTag (designated as “Ldb1-HaloTag” in the figure), in the target cell, resulting in a BRET emission, which can be detected and is a measure of the nuclear localization of the Vpr. 
           [0014]      FIGS. 2A-2D  show representative data showing that LDB1 and LMO2 interact in the context of the disclosed fusion proteins. Briefly, FRET is observed when the fusion construct, EGFP-LMO2-Vpr, and the fusion construct, LDB1-mCherry, are cotransfected into HEK293T cells (see  FIGS. 2A  and 2B). Bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (“BRET”) was observed in a BRET control, as well as when the fusion constructs, NL-LMO2-Vpr and Ldb1-HaloTag, are cotransfected, but only when HaloTag ligand is provided (see  FIG. 2C ). BRET is also observed when the fusion construct, NL-LMO2-Vpr, is virally transduced into HEK293T cells transfected with a recombinant DNA construct encoding a Ldb1-HaloTag fusion protein (see  FIG. 2D ). BRET is only observed when HaloTag ligand in provided. 
           [0015]      FIGS. 3A-3D  show representative data pertaining to the expression, intracellular stability, and nuclear localization of disclosed fusion constructs. The fusion constructs are EGFP-LMO2-Vpr (encoded on a recombinant DNA construct designated as pEGFP-LMO2-Vpr in the figure) and LDB1-Luciferase (encoded on a recombinant DNA construction designated as pCMV6-XL4-Ldb1-NanoLuc in the figure). The recombinant DNA constructs were trasnsfected into HEK293 T cells by Lipofectamine 2000 transfection (Invitrogen). In brief, 4 μg of pCMV6-XL4-Ldb1-NanoLuc or pEGFP-LMO2-Vpr were transfected into HEK293T cells in each well of a 6-well plate. At 48 hours post-transfection, samples were taken for luminometric, flow cytometric analysis, or fluoresecent microscopy. For NanoLuc luminometric analysis, high-levels of luciferase reading from pCMV6-XL4-Lbdl-NanoLuc were observed (see  FIG. 3A ). The EGFP-LMO2-Vpr was observed by flow cytometry ( FIGS. 3B and 3C ). Fluoresecent microscopy confirmed that the EGFP-LMO2-Vpr expression was exclusively nuclear ( FIG. 3D ). 
           [0016]      FIGS. 4A-4E  show representative data demonstrating that Arp3 knockdown diminishes HIV-1 infection and viral nuclear migration. Briefly, Arp3 knockdown in shArp-12, shArp-13, and the control shNTC cells was analyzed by Western Blot (see  FIG. 4A ). shArp-12, shArp-13, and shNTC cells were infected with HIVNL4-3 to monitor viral replication by p24 release (see  FIG. 4B ). Viral etnry into shArp-12, shArp-13, and shNTC was measured with a Nef-luciferase-based entry assay (see  FIG. 4C ). shArp-12, shArp-13, and shNTC cells were infected with a single-cycle HIV-1(Env) that was pseudotyped with HIV-1 gp160. Cells were infected for 2 hours, washed, and then taken at different time points for PCR quantification of viral DNA (see  FIG. 4D ). Viral 2-LTR circles following HIV infection at 48 hours were also measured (see  FIG. 4E ). 
           [0017]      FIGS. 5A-5D  show representative data demonstrating that CK548 inhibits HIV-1 infection and viral nuclear migration. Briefly, CEM-SS T cells were pre-treated with DMSO or CK548 for 1 hour, and then infected with HIV-1NL4-3. Viral replication was measured by p24 release (see  FIG. 5A ). Drug cytotoxicity was meaured in CK548-treated and infected cells by PI staining and flow cytometry (see  FIG. 5B ). Shown is the percentage of PI-positive cells. No drug cytotoxicity was detectable at 50 μM and below CEM-SS T cells were pretreated with DMSO or CK548 for 1 hour, and then infected with a single-cycle HIV-1(Env) that was pseudotyped with HIV-1 gp160. Cells were infected for 2 hours, washed, and cultured in the presence of the drug for 48 hours. Total cellular DNA was extracted at 48 hours post infection and then PCR-amplified to quantify viral DNA (for results see  FIG. 5C ). Viral 2-LTR-circles were also measured (see  FIG. 5D ). The relative ratio of 2-LTR circles to viral total DNA was also plotted. “ND” in the figure indicates that the signal was not detectable. 
           [0018]      FIG. 6  shows representative data demonstrating that the use of a pair of disclosed fusion constucts in a disclosed method provides a functional BRET pair. The two fusion constructs were: a) a luciferase-LMO2-vpr fusion construct (designated as pNanoluc-LMO2-Vpr in the figure); and b) a LDB1-HaloTag fusion construct (designated as pLdb1-HaloTag in the figure). Briefly, pNL-LMO2-Vpr and pLdb1-HT were co-transfected into HEK293T cells with either 500 or 50 ng of the pNL-LMO2-Vpr vector. For comparison, 4 μg of pNanoBRET control plasmid was also transfected. mBRET Units were calculated by subtracting the BRET ratio from the acceptor without ligand from the BRET ratio of the acceptor with ligand (618 ligand) and multiplying by 1000. 
           [0019]      FIG. 7  shows representative data demonstrating that infection of cells with disclosed recombinant viral particle can induce BRET. HEK293T cells were transfected with pLdb1-HT (comprising a recombinant DNA construct comprising a promoter operably linked to a nucleotide sequence encoding a fusion construct comprising LDB land HaloTag). After 24 hours post-transfection, the transfected cells were infected with 2, 1, or 0.5 ml of virus particles comprising a fusion construction comprising a luciferase polypeptide, a LMO2 polypeptide, and a Vpr polypeptide. The data are plotted in terms of corrected mBRET units; mBRET units are as defined for  FIG. 6 . 
           [0020]      FIG. 8  shows confirmation of pLKO.1 MCS Puro Lbd1-HT by restriction enzyme digest and agarose gel electrophoresis. 
           [0021]      FIGS. 9A-9C  show the results of screening HeLa JC53 and A3R5.7 for Halotage expression.  FIG. 9A  shows vLKO.1 MCS Puro Ldb1-HT polyclonal transduced cells (FACS R110 direct ligand).  FIG. 9B  shows vLKO.1 MCS Puro Ldb1-HT transduced HeLa JC53 representative clones (FACS R110 direct ligand).  FIG. 9C  shows vLKO.1 MCS Puro Ldb1-HT transduced A3R5.7 representative clones (FACS R110 direct ligand). 
           [0022]      FIGS. 10A-10B  show a summary of vLKO.1 MCS Puro Ldb1-HT transduced HeLa JC53 and A3R5.7 clones tested (FACS R110 direct ligand).  FIG. 10A  is a bar graph showing the summary of vLKO.1 MCS Puro Ldb1-HT transduced HeLa JC53 clones tested (FACS R110 direct ligand).  FIG. 10B  is a bar graph showing the summary of vLKO.1 MCS Puro Ldb1-HT transduced A3R5.7 clones tested (FACS R110 direct ligand). 
           [0023]      FIG. 11  compares the infectivity of vNL-LMO2-Vpr versus the Clone 8 Rev-dependent GFP reporter cell line.

       [0027]    Additional advantages of the invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or can be learned by practice of the invention. The advantages of the invention will be realized and attained by means of the elements and combinations particularly pointed out in the appended claims. It is to be understood that both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory only and are not restrictive of the invention, as claimed. 
       DESCRIPTION 
       [0028]    The present invention can be understood more readily by reference to the following detailed description of the invention and the Examples included therein. 
       A. DEFINITIONS 
       [0029]    As used in the specification and the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an” and “the” include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. Thus, for example, reference to “a functional group,” “an alkyl,” or “a residue” includes mixtures of two or more such functional groups, alkyls, or residues, and the like. 
         [0030]    Ranges can be expressed herein as from “about” one particular value, and/or to “about” another particular value. When such a range is expressed, a further aspect includes from the one particular value and/or to the other particular value. Similarly, when values are expressed as approximations, by use of the antecedent “about,” it will be understood that the particular value forms a further aspect. It will be further understood that the endpoints of each of the ranges are significant both in relation to the other endpoint, and independently of the other endpoint. It is also understood that there are a number of values disclosed herein, and that each value is also herein disclosed as “about” that particular value in addition to the value itself. For example, if the value “10” is disclosed, then “about 10” is also disclosed. It is also understood that each unit between two particular units are also disclosed. For example, if 10 and 15 are disclosed, then 11, 12, 13, and 14 are also disclosed. 
         [0031]    As used herein, the terms “optional” or “optionally” means that the subsequently described event or circumstance can or can not occur, and that the description includes instances where said event or circumstance occurs and instances where it does not. 
         [0032]    Unless otherwise expressly stated, it is in no way intended that any method set forth herein be construed as requiring that its steps be performed in a specific order. Accordingly, where a method claim does not actually recite an order to be followed by its steps or it is not otherwise specifically stated in the claims or descriptions that the steps are to be limited to a specific order, it is no way intended that an order be inferred, in any respect. This holds for any possible non-express basis for interpretation, including: matters of logic with respect to arrangement of steps or operational flow; plain meaning derived from grammatical organization or punctuation; and the number or type of embodiments described in the specification. 
         [0033]    In various aspects, the disclosed methods comprise a reporter system for nuclear migration based upon Bioluminesce Resonance Energy Transfer (BRET), which is analogous to the better-known FRET (Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer). In an aspect, the disclosed methods are based on the nucleus-specific and high-affinity interaction between two nuclear factors, LMO2 and Ldb1, which only interact in the nucleus. In an aspect, the disclosed methods comprise a HIV-1 Vpr N-terminally fused to EGFP and LMO2 protein. In an aspect, concomitantly, target cells are transduced to express a fusion protein, Ldb1-luciferase, e.g., the Nanoluc luciferase, which is a a high-efficiency luciferase. Without wishing to be bound by a particular theory, tagged virions carry the EGFP-LMO2-Vpr protein into the cells and nucleus. After this, the EGFP-LMO2-Vpr protein interacts with nuclear Lbd1-Nanoluc, exclusively in the nucleus, as this interaction only occurs in the nucleus. Thus, only true nuclear migration can be detected. Following protein-protein interaction, the addition of Nanoluc luminogenic substrate will then result in EGFP excitation and emission of the Ldb1-EGFP fusion protein. The signal can be measured quantitatively by photometer or flow cytometer. The disclosed methods has numerous advantages: (i) faster, signals are measured within hours of infection; (ii) convenient, signals are directly measured without the need for DNA extraction and quantification; (iii) more sensitive, nuclear migration in resting T cells can be measured within hours, and does not require T cell activation; (iv) direct, it is a direct measurement of the nuclear migration of PIC rather than a measurement of the surrogate DNA circles. In addition, given that the assay is performed in live cells, it will also allow monitoring nuclear migration over a time course. Furthermore, this reporter system would be amenable to high-throughput screening of HIV-1 nuclear migration inhibitors. 
         [0034]    Integration of viral DNA is a decisive step in HIV infection and the establishment of viral latency. Successful integration requires three obligatory steps: viral entry, reverse transcription, and nuclear migration. For virology research, all of these steps need to be quantified. Notably, only two of them have fast, convenient, and quantitative assays—the BlaM- or Luciferase-based fusion assays (1, 2) and the quantitative real-time PCR (3). For measuring viral nuclear migration, a common method is to use the HIV 2-LTR circle as a surrogate, as it is only formed in the nucleus in the presence of host repair factors that mediate non-homologous end-joining (4). An alternative method requires nuclear fractionation, and a subsequent qRT-PCR of viral DNA in the nucleus (5). Both of these assays have limitations. At early times, only a small percentage of viral nuclear DNA forms 2-LTR circles, whereas following second round replication, 2-LTR circles accumulate in a significant amount. In particular, in HIV infection of resting CD4 T cells, the 2-LTR circle quantification is insensitive at early time points (before 12 hours), and frequently requires T cell activation and second round viral replication for quantification (5). In addition, certain drugs and viral mutations, such as the integrase inhibitors and the integrase mutation, lead to a dramatic aberrant accumulation of 2-LTR circles up to several hundreds&#39; fold (6). As such, at best, the 2-LTR circle methodology is an inadequate correlative of viral nuclear migration. Alternatively, for measuring HIV early nuclear migration in resting CD4 T cells, nuclear fractionation is often used (5, 7). The method is tedious, requires multiple fractionation controls, and there is a significant risk of contamination from the cytoplasmic compartment. Additionally, both assays are not amenable to high-throughput screening. 
         [0035]    The disclosed nuclear migration reporter assay is predicated on the high-affinity interaction of two nuclear proteins, LMO2 and Ldb1 (8, 9). LMO2 and Ldb1 canonically form multimeric transcription factor complexes in the nucleus that mediate transactivation or repression of target genes (10). Specifically, viral Vpr can be fused to LMO2 and EGFP. The resulting protein is designated as EGFP-LMO2-Vpr. The proper processing and virion incorporation of Vpr fusion proteins have been previously characterized for tracking viral entry and nuclear migration (1, 11, 12). This EGFP-LMO2-Vpr fusion protein can be provided in trans with the proviral plasmid, pNL4-3, to produce viral particles carrying the fusion protein. Simultaneously, target cells can be transduced to express the BRET donor, Ldb1-Nanoluc (or Ldb1-NL). As such, after infection and nuclear migration in the target cells, association of EGFP-LMO2-Vpr with Ldb1-NL can occur exclusively in the nucleus. Upon addition of luminogenic Nanoluc substrate, the Ldb1-NL protein will produce light capable of exciting EGFP-LMO2-Vpr. Emission from EGFP, the result of BRET, will be a quantitative readout of nuclear migration. Due to the nucleus-specific distribution of these proteins, only true nuclear migration can be detected. 
         [0036]    The use of Vpr fusion protein ensures nuclear localization. The use of Nanoluc as the BRET donor has additional advantages (13). For instance, Nanoluc exhibits 100-150-fold high activity than the more-conventional Renillia or firefly luciferases. This, along with the virion incorporation of Vpr, will ensure maximum sensitivity. More broadly, the use of BRET offers other advantages. Unlike FRET, where laser excitation wavelengths can “bleed into” the emission channel, BRET requires no extrinsic excitation laser. This reduces background and increases sensitivity. Additionally, because the resultant product is EGFP emission, this assay will allow for nuclear migration quantification in fluorescent microscopy, flow cytometry, and standard fluorometry. This unique combination of factors makes this approach highly innovative, and ensures that the resultant reporter assay will be extremely sensitive, specific, quantitative, and have broad utility in the field of retrovirology research.

         [0055]    1. BRET-Based LMO2-LDB1 Nuclear Migration Assay 
         [0056]    A pair of vectors were developed to determine interactions of the two fusion constructs using confocal microscopy with FRET detection. The vectors, designated as pNL-LMO2-Vpr (see  FIG. 1B ) and pLDB1-HT. The pEGFP-LMO2-Vpr vector comprises a promoter operably linked to a nucleotide sequence encoding a fusion protein comprising an luciferase polypeptide, a LMO2 polypeptide, and a Vpr polypeptide. The pLDB1-HT vector comprises a promoter operably linked to a nucleotide sequence encoding a fusion protein comprising an LDB1 polypeptide and a HaloTag polypeptide. The overall assay scheme is diagrammed in  FIG. 1C . Data obtained using these constructs are shown in  FIGS. 2A-2D . 
         [0057]    The disclosed assay utilizes the interaction of a BRET donor, such as a fusion protein comprising a luciferase polypeptide fused to an interactor, LMO2, and a viral protein, Vpr. Moreover, the disclosed utilizes the expression of a nucleus localized BRET acceptor, such as a fusion protein comprising a reporter, e.g., HaloTag or a GFP, and the other interacting partner, Ldb1, in the target cell. Though LMO2 and Ldb1 are known to interact in vivo, whether the above-mentioned fusion proteins interact was not known. The data shown in  FIGS. 2A-2D , using FRET and BRET, demonstrate that the fusion constructs are able to interact. For the FRET experiment, HEK293T cells were transfected with pEGFP-LMO2-Vpr and pCEP4-Ldb1-mCherry. As shown in  FIG. 2A , FRET was observed in these cells in cotransfection. Further studies demonstrated that FRET was not observed when either pEGFP-LMO2-Vpr or pCEP4-Ldb1-mCherry were transfected alone. A BRET interaction experiment using pNL-LMO2-Vpr and pLdb1-HaloTag, which was also performed in HEK293T cells. As shown in  FIG. 2B , only when the fluorescent HaloTag ligand was provided was BRET observed. 
         [0058]    For the nuclear migration assay to perform as expected, the viral particle needs to transduce enough of the BRET donor, NanoLuc-LMO2-Vpr, to be detected. Additionally, enough of the reporter needs to localize to the nucleus to observe BRET. As such, HEK293T cells were transfected with the BRET acceptor, pLdb1-HaloTag, and either incubated overnight with DMSO or the HaloTag fluorescent ligand. Cells were then subsequently infected with 2 ml, 1 ml, or 0.5 ml of virus carrying NanoLuc-LMO2-Vpr. Further studies demonstrated that sufficient NanoLuc-LMO2-Vpr was virally transduced to generate a luminescent signal 3-4 orders of magnitude above background. Additionally, as shown in  FIG. 2C , upon infection, BRET was observed between the donor-acceptor pair. For the control, BRET was not observed when the fluorescent HaloTag ligand was not provided. 
         [0059]    2. Expression, Intracellular Stability, and Nuclear Localization of the Two Reporter Proteins 
         [0060]    In order to determine the expression, intracellular stability, and nuclear localization of the two reporter proteins as described above, pEGFP-LMO2-Vpr and pCMV6-XL4-Ldb1-NanoLuc were constructed. Both expression vectors were trasnsfected into HEK293 T cells by Lipofectamine 2000 transfection (Invitrogen). In brief, 4 μg of pCMV6-XL4-Ldb1-NanoLuc or pEGFP-LMO2-Vpr were transfected into HEK293T cells in each well of a 6-well plate. 48 hours post-transfection, samples were taken for luminometric, flow cytometric analysis, or fluoresecent microscopy. For NanoLuc luminometric analysis, we observed high-levels of luciferase reading from pCMV6-XL4-Lbdl-NanoLuc ( FIG. 3A ). We also observed EGFP expression of pEGFP-LMO2-Vpr by flow cytometry ( FIG. 3B ). Fluoresecent microscopy confirmed that the EGFP expression is exclusively nuclear ( FIG. 3C ). 
         [0061]    3. Vector Construction 
         [0062]    Cloning was performed using a PCR-based cloning protocol as described by Li (14). In brief, ligation-independent cloning will be performed after high-fidelity PCR amplification of the vector and insert from plasmids, followed by mixing the two reactions. DpnI treatment will be used to remove contaminating plasmids before  E. coli  transformation. Nanoluc (Promega) will cloned into pCMV6-XL4-Ldb1 (OriGene) using the following primers: NanoLuc Forward-5′ GTCACAGGCCTCCCAGATGGTCTTCACACTCGAA 3′; NanoLuc Reverse-5′ CACAGCAGGGCCTTTTATTACGCCAGAATGCGTTC 3′; Ldb1 Forward-5′ TAAAAGGCCCTGCTGTG 3′; Ldb1 Reverse-5′ CTGGGAGGCCTGTGAC 3′. Similarly, LMO2 was cloned from pCMV6-XL5-LMO2 (OriGene) into pEGFP-Vpr (NIH AIDS Reagent Program) using the following primers: LMO2 Forward-5′ GATCTCGAGCTCAAGCTTATGTCCTCGGCCATCG 3′; LMO2 Reverse-5′ GTCTTCTGGGGCTTGTTCTATCATCCCATTGATCTTAGT 3′; pEGFP-Vpr Forward-5′ GAACAAGCCCCAGAAGAC 3′; pEGFP-Vpr Reverse-5′ AAGCTTGAGCTCGAGATC 3′. The Ldb1-NL fusion construct will further be cloned in the lentiviral vector, pLKO.1-Puro for lentiviral particle production. 
         [0063]    4. Viral Particle Construction 
         [0064]    Recombinant, HIV viral particles are produced by co-transfection of pEGFP-LMO2-Vpr, which will express the Gag-Pol-LMO2-NL polyprotein, and pNL4-3 proviral plasmid. The resulting viral particles will be competent for infection in target cells and will carry the EGFP-LMO2-Vpr fusion protein. 
         [0065]    For producing viral particles for lentiviral transduction of target cells, pLKO.1-Puro-Ldb1-NL will be cotransfected with the packaging plasmid, pCMV□8.2, and a vector expressing the HIV envelope protein gp160 or pHCMV-G, which expresses the VSV-G glycoprotein envelope. The resulting virus particles will be concentrated and used to infect target cells. 
         [0066]    5. Reporter Cell Line Construction 
         [0067]    Target cells will be tranduced with the vLKO.1-Puro-Ldb1-NL particles. Approximately 2 days post-infection, cells will be selected in puromycin to remove non-transduced cells. The transduced target cells will be ready to use following selection. 
         [0068]    6. Assay Characterization 
         [0069]    Ldb1-NL-transduced target cells will be first infected with wt HIV-1NL4-3. Nuclear migration will be measured by 3 different assays. For nuclear fractionation and 2-LTR circules, lysates will be taken at 2, 4, 6, 12, 18, and 24 hours post-infection. Subsequently, lysates will be subjected to fractionation or direct extraction to measure nuclear viral DNA and 2-LTR circle DNA, respectively. For comparison with BLNMA, target cells will be similarly infected with HIVNL4-3 (EGFP-LMO2-Vpr), and flow cytometry samples will be taken at the same time points. To induce luminescence and BRET, the Nanoluc substrate will be loaded into the flow cytometry samples immediately prior to analyzing the sample, which will allow analysis of EGFP-emitting cells in which nuclear migration has occurred. 
         [0070]    To verify the specificity of this assay further, this reporter assay will be performed in the presence of nuclear migration-promoting conditions and agents, such as spinoculation (15), or the chemokines CCL-19 and CCL-21 (16). These chemokines have been previously shown to upregulate nuclear migration of resting CD4 T cells (16). For measuring nuclear migration in resting CD4 T cells, cells will be cultured in IL-7, and then transduced with the vLKO.1-Puro-Ldb1-EGFP vector. Culturing CD4 T cells in IL-7 has been known to effectively permit them to be transduced by lentiviral vectors for gene expression (17). 
         [0071]    The nuclear migration assay was performed in two CEM-SS-based cells, shArp-12 and shArp-13, which we recently constructed. In both shArp-12 and shArp-13, the actin branching factor Arp3 was stably knockdown (80% knockdown). The cloned cells exhibited a marked defect in nuclear migration, with little impact on reverse transcription ( FIGS. 4A-4D ). As indicated, 2-LTR circles were used as a correlative of nuclear entry in our characterization of shArp-12 and shArp-13, which had a dramatic reduction of 2-LTR circles. We will re-measure the nuclear entry defect by BLNMA. In addition, recently, we also found that a novel Arp2/3 inhibitor, CK548, dramatically inhibited HIV nuclear migration while stimulating HIV DNA synthesis ( FIGS. 5A-5D ). We will also perform BLNMA to confirm the phenotype. 
         [0072]    7. Assay Results 
         [0073]    The BRET pair function in co-transfection of the two plasmids, pNanoluc-LMO2-Vpr and pLdb1-HaloTag, was tested and compared to a NanoBRET control vector from Promega ( FIG. 6 ). As shown, the BLNMA BRET pair compared favorably to the NanoBRET control. Further aspects of the assay were demonstrated using HIVNL4-3 (VSV-G, Nanoluc-LMO2-Vpr) created virions, pseudotyped with the VSV-G envelope and carrying the Nanoluc-LMO2-Vpr protein. These were used to infect HEK293T cells transfected with pLdb1-HaloTag. As shown in  FIG. 7 , infection-induced BRET was readily detected. Collectively, these data indicate the assay may work as outlined above. 
         [0074]    Identification of CCL-19/CCL-21-mediated upregulation of nuclear migration, and downregulation in shArp-12, -13 and CK548-treated cells, indicates the assay is specific to nuclear migration events. More specifically, these particular treatments reflect examples of nuclear migration modulation, and would indicate if the nuclear migration reporter assay is sensitive and quantitative enough to detect changes in nuclear migration. The CK548 treatment demonstrates the utility of the disclosed method for potential drug screening of nuclear migration inhibitors. 
         [0075]    The transduction of target cells with vLKO.1-Puro-Ldb1-NL vector is one approach for routinely used HIV target cell lines. This approach particularly fits the purpose of drug screening, where stable cell lines carrying Ldb-NL can be constructed. For resting CD4 T cells, the vector can also be used for transduction following cytokine culturing of resting CD4 T cells (17). However, there are situations where resting CD4 T cells will be directly infected. For this purpose, the disclosed method can be readily modified by using two differently labeled particles: one carrying EGFP-LMO2-Vpr, as described above, the other carrying NL-Ldb1-Vpr. The two particles will be assembled separately and mixed with at 1:1 ratio, and then used for infection. Infected cells will have LMO2-Ldb1 interaction in the nucleus following nuclear migration. 
         [0076]    The data shown herein suggest that in some apsects, the recombinant virus particle, rather than the cell, should carry a luciferase reporter, as a lower NanoLuc input signal typically increases the BRET ratio. In an aspect, the cell should harbor the fluorescent BRET acceptor. In a further aspect, the fluorescent reporter should be red-shifted. For example, it may be preferable in some aspects, to use a reporter such as HaloTag, which can be loaded with a BRET-optimized fluorescent ligand (excitation maximum at 618 nm). 
         [0077]    8. BRET Based HIV-1 Nuclear Migration Assay 
         [0078]    Disclosed herein are HIV-1 nuclear migration assaya based on the protein:protein interaction of the nuclear factors LMO2 and Ldb1. LMO2 and Ldb1 are scaffolding proteins that are constituents of a multicomponent transcriptional complex and interact with each other in the nucleus. These two nuclear factors can be utilized in the HIV-1 nuclear migration assay by creating two separate fusion proteins that, following HIV infection, interact with one another in the nucleus to generate a bioluminescent resonance energy transfer (BRET) signal. The two fusion proteins utilized to generate this signal are Nanoluc-LMO2-Vpr and Ldb1-Halotag. The Nanoluc-LMO2-Vpr fusion protein can be incorporated within the virion of wild-type HIV (NL4-3), and either HeLa JC53 or A3R5.7 cells that are susceptible to infection by HIV-1 will constitutively express the Ldb1-Halotag fusion protein. The signal generated through the interaction of these fusion proteins is based upon the NanoBRET technology developed by Promega and requires that the Nanoluc and Halotag components of the fusion proteins be in close proximity to one another to generate the assay signal. 
         [0079]    Halotag-Ldb1 Fusion Protein. Ldb1-Halotag was cloned into a modified version of the commercially available pLKO.1 lentiviral vector (MCS cloned into commercial PLKO.1). The proper pLKO.1 MCS Puro Ldb1-HT vector size was confirmed by restriction enzyme digest and agarose gel electrophoresis ( FIG. 8 ). The resulting vector was termed pLKO.1 MCS Puro Ldb1-HT and was packaged using HEK293T cells with the helper plasmid pCMVA8.2 and pCMV-VSV-G. The lentiviral particles, vPLKO.1 MCS Puro Ldb1-HT, were utilized to transduce HeLa JC53 and A3R5.7 cells to constitutively express the Ldb1-HT fusion protein. Puromycin selection was performed to propagate the transduced cells and subsequently screened via FACS for Halotag expression using the Halotag Direct Ligand R110 (Promega). Individual clones were isolated from polyclonal populations of Ldb1-HT transduced cells by limiting dilution. The HeLa JC53 and A3R5.7 clones were also screened for Halotag expression using the Halotag R110 Direct Ligand via FACS ( FIGS. 9 and 10 ). 
         [0080]    NL-LMO2-Vpr Fusion Protein. The plasmid pNL-LMO2-Vpr was provided by Promega and was packaged into the NL4-3 virion by co-transfecting pNL-LMO2-Vpr and pNL4-3 into HEK293T cells. The supernatant was harvested after 48 hours, centrifuged at 1200 rpm, decanted to remove cell debris, and 0.45μM syringe-end filtered. Aliquots of the viral particles, vNL-LMO2-Vpr (NL4-3), were stored frozen at −80° C. The infectivity of the vNL-LMO2-Vpr (NL4-3) was determined using a Rev-dependent GFP reporter cell line ( FIG. 11 ). 
         [0081]    HIV-1 Nuclear Migration BRET Assay. An assessment was performed of the BRET signal generated in the assay following the infection of either Ldb1-HT transduced HeLa JC53 or A3R5.7 cells with vNL-LMO2-Vpr (NL4-3) was evaluated. 
         [0082]    The adherent HeLa JC53 Ldb1-HT transduced cells with and without the NanoBRET 618 ligand were added to triplicate wells of a sterile white clear bottom 96-well microtiter plate (Greiner 655098) and infected with vNL-LMO2-Vpr (NL4-3) an initial 2-hour period at 37° C. At the conclusion of the 2-hour infection, the cells were washed 2× with PBS and 2004 complete culture medium was added to each well. The plates were incubated for an additional 4-hours at 37° C. (6-hour total infection time) or as otherwise indicated. At the conclusion of this incubation, the plates were washed 2× with PBS and 100 μL of PBS was added to each well. 25 μL of diluted NanoBRET substrate was added to each well and the plates were read on a Promega Glowmax Discover Luminometer using the default BRET Ratio instrument settings (donor signal-emission 450 nm/BP 80 nm; acceptor signal-emission 610 nm/LP). The NanoBRET ratio was calculated for each sample using the following formula: Acceptor Emission (618 nm) / Donor Emission (460 nm)=×1,000=milliBRET units (mBU). To account for donor-contributed background or bleed-through, the without ligand-no-acceptor control samples wee subtracted from the with ligand experimental samples to obtain the corrected NanoBRET ratio. Representative BRET results are included in  FIGS. 12 and 13 . 
         [0083]    For the suspension of the A3R5.7 Ldb1-HT transduced cells, cells with and without Halotag 618 ligand were incubated overnight at 37° C. in 5 mL polypropylene tubes with caps. At the conclusion of the overnight incubation, the cells were pelleted at 1200 rpm and re-suspended to 200 μL with PBS. The cells were infected with vNL-LMO2-Vpr (NL4-3) an initial 2-hour period at 37° C. At the conclusion of the 2-hour infection, the cells were washed 2× with PBS and re-suspended to 0.5mL with complete culture medium. The plates were incubated for an additional 4-hours at 37° C. (6-hour total infection time) or as otherwise specified. At the end of the specified incubation time, the cells were washed 2× with PBS and re-suspended to a final volume of 500 μL with PBS. 1004 of the re-suspended cells were added to sterile white clear bottom 96-well microtiter plates (Greiner 655098). 25 μL of diluted NanoBRET substrate was added to each well and the plates were read on a Promega Glowmax Discover Luminometer using the default BRET Ratio instrument settings (donor signal-emission 450 nm/BP 80 nm; acceptor signal-emission 610 nm/LP). The NanoBRET ratio was calculated for each sample using the following formula: Acceptor Emission (618 nm)/Donor Emission (460 nm)=×1,000=milliBRET units (mBU). To account for donor-contributed background or bleed-through, the without ligand-no-acceptor control samples wee subtracted from the with ligand experimental samples to obtain the corrected NanoBRET ratio. Representative BRET results are included in  FIGS. 12 and 14 .
