G3BP1 inhibits RNA virus replication by positively regulating RIG-I-mediated cellular antiviral response.

ABSTRACT: Retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I) is a pattern recognition receptor and is involved in the innate immune response against RNA viruses infection. Here, we demonstrate that the Ras-GTPase-activating protein SH3-domain-binding protein 1 (G3BP1) serves as a positive regulator of the RIG-I-mediated signaling pathway. G3BP1-deficient cells inhibited RNA virus-triggered induction of downstream antiviral genes. Furthermore, we found that G3BP1 inhibited the replication of Sendai virus and vesicular stomatitis virus, indicating a positive regulation of G3BP1 to cellular antiviral responses. Mechanistically, G3BP1 formed a complex with RNF125 and RIG-I, leading to decreased RNF125 via its auto-ubiquitination; thus, promoting expression of RIG-I. Overall, the results suggest a novel mechanism for G3BP1 in the positive regulation of antiviral signaling mediated by RIG-I.

Project description:The activation of host cells by interferon gamma (IFNγ) is essential for inhibiting the intracellular replication of most microbial pathogens. Although significant advances have been made in identifying IFNγ-dependent host factors that suppress intracellular bacteria, little is known about how IFNγ enables cells to recognize, or restrict, the growth of pathogens that replicate in the host cytoplasm. The replication of the cytosolic bacterial pathogen Shigella flexneri is significantly inhibited in IFNγ-stimulated cells, however the specific mechanisms that mediate this inhibition have remained elusive. We found that S. flexneri efficiently invades IFNγ-activated mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) and escapes from the vacuole, suggesting that IFNγ acts by blocking S. flexneri replication in the cytosol. This restriction on cytosolic growth was dependent on interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF1), an IFNγ-inducible transcription factor capable of inducing IFNγ-mediated cell-autonomous immunity. To identify host factors that restrict S. flexneri growth, we used whole genome microarrays to identify mammalian genes whose expression in S. flexneri-infected cells is controlled by IFNγ and IRF1. Among the genes we identified was the pattern recognition receptor (PRR) retanoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I), a cytoplasmic sensor of foreign RNA that had not been previously known to play a role in S. flexneri infection. We found that RIG-I and its downstream signaling adaptor mitochondrial antiviral signaling protein (MAVS)--but not cytosolic Nod-like receptors (NLRs)--are critically important for IFNγ-mediated S. flexneri growth restriction. The recently described RNA polymerase III pathway, which transcribes foreign cytosolic DNA into the RIG-I ligand 5'-triphosphate RNA, appeared to be involved in this restriction. The finding that RIG-I responds to S. flexneri infection during the IFNγ response extends the range of PRRs that are capable of recognizing this bacterium. Additionally, these findings expand our understanding of how IFNγ recognizes, and ultimately restricts, bacterial pathogens within host cells.
