Dissecting infectious bronchitis virus-induced host shutoff at the translation level.

ABSTRACT: Viruses have evolved a range of strategies to utilize or manipulate the host's cellular translational machinery for efficient infection, although the mechanisms by which infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) manipulates the host translation machinery remain unclear. In this study, we firstly demonstrate that IBV infection causes host shutoff, although viral protein synthesis is not affected. We then screened 23 viral proteins, and identified that more than one viral protein is responsible for IBV-induced host shutoff, the inhibitory effects of proteins Nsp15 were particularly pronounced. Ribosome profiling was used to draw the landscape of viral mRNA and cellular genes expression model, and the results showed that IBV mRNAs gradually dominated the cellular mRNA pool, the translation efficiency
