Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 2. Characterization of CD32-driven trogocytosis (A) 293T cells transiently expressing C-terminal GFP fusion proteins of FcgRs CD32A, CD32B, or CD32C or, as a control, the nucleocytoplasmic dNTPase SAMHD1 served as donors in co-cultures with CellTrace dye-stained SupT1 T target cells. All culture media contained IgG-depleted FCS. Shown are repre- sentative flow cytometry dot plots and the percentages of CD32+ and GFP+ target T cells. One experiment out of two is shown. (B) Schematic of topology determination of transferred CD32-GFP (top). Bottom: SupT1 T cells were co-cultured as described in (A) and stained with either an anti-GFP mAb or an isotype control antibody, both conjugated to Alexa 647, with or without prior cell permeabilization. One representative experiment is shown (n = 3). The illustration was created with BioRender.com. (C) 293T cells were co-transfected with plasmids encoding C-terminal GFP fusion proteins of CD32A, CD32B, or CD32C or, as a control, histone H2B-GFP, together with a plasmid encoding CCR5. After 2 days, cells were either left untreated or pre-treated with an anti-CD32 Ab or an isotype control Ab prior to co- cultivation with SupT1 T cells. One day later, the expression of GFP and CCR5 on the target T cells was determined by flow cytometry. Mean ± SEM are shown (n = 3). Asterisks indicate statistical significance by two-way ANOVA. p values were corrected for multiple comparison (Tukey). (D) Half-life of CD32 and CCR5 surface expression on SupT1 target cells following co-culture as in (A). Following 1 day of co-culture, SupT1 T cells positive for CD32-GFP were sorted by flow cytometry and kept in culture for an additional 9 days. The expression of CD32 (top) or CCR5 (bottom) on sorted cells was determined for up to 192 h of cultivation. One representative experiment is shown (n = 2). (E) Schematic of CD32B with important amino acids and motifs indicated. (F) Transfer of the indicated CD32B mutants, CD32A WT, CD32C WT, or H2B (GFP fusion proteins), assessed as in (A) (mean ± SEM; n = 4). Asterisks indicate statistical significance by one-way ANOVA. p values were corrected for multiple comparison (Dunnett). (G) Visualization of the material transfer from CD32B-GFP expressing 293T cells to LifeAct-mCherry-expressing SupT1 using live-cell imaging. 293T cells transiently expressing CD32B-GFP (green) were co-cultured with LifeAct-mCherry-expressing SupT1 cells (magenta), cultivated in IgG-depleted FCS and boosted with PGT151 antibody, and imaged using spinning disc microscopy for 4 h. The left panel shows the beginning of co-culture. (a) Labels the area with the first transfer event (middle panel). (b) Labels the area of the second transfer event (right panel). Dashed white box marks the area that is zoomed and depicted with individual time points before and after the transfer event (shown below). The time stamp (upper right corner, relative to the time frame which shows the transfer event (time 00:00) in zoom-ins). Scale bar, 10 mm. *p % 0.05; **p % 0.01; ***p % 0.001.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 3. CD32-driven trogocytosis is boosted by T cell-autoreactive antibodies associated with chronic HIV-1 infection (A) CD32 expression on CD4 T cells from peripheral blood of healthy donors (HD) (n = 23) and chronic HIV-1 infected patients (CHI) (n = 39). Median with 95% CI are shown. Asterisks indicate statistical significance by Mann-Whitney test. (B) 293T cells transiently co-expressing CD32B-GFP and CCR5 were pre-treated with the indicated patient sera before 1 day of co-culture with SupT1 T cells. Shown are the percentage of CD32B-GFP+ and CCR5+ target cells (median with 95% CI, each dot represents a different patient; see also Figure S7C). CHI, chronic HIV-1 infection; ART, anti-retroviral therapy; AHI, acute HIV-1 infection. Fiebig stages II-III of acute HIV-1 infection42; HIV-2, HIV type 2; HTLV-1, human T cell lymphotropic virus type 1; HCV, hepatitis C virus; DENV, dengue virus; YFV, yellow fever virus-vaccinated; SARS-CoV-2, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2; EC, Echinococcus multilocularis; SCH, Schistosoma spp.; TB, Mycobacterium tuberculosis; RA, rheumatoid arthritis; SLE, systemic lupus erythematosus; CG, cryoglobulinemia. Asterisks indicate statistical significance by Mann-Whitney test. (C) Percentage of GFP+ target cells after 1 day of co-culture with 293T cells as in (B). IgG was depleted from the sera of two healthy donor (HD) and two HIV-1 patient (CHI) samples from (B, pink and red) and input (original sera), flowthrough and eluate of the IgG depletion were used for pre-treatment of cells prior to co- culture. Mean of two donors from each category is shown. (D) Correlation of antibody binding to SupT1 T cells and CD32B-GFP trogocytosis as in (B), with sera from HIV-1 patients.
