Knockout of HDAC9 Gene Enhances Foot-and-Mouth Disease Virus Replication.

ABSTRACT: Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) is a highly contagious viral disease that mainly infects cloven-hoofed animals. Propagation of FMDV by cell culture is an important method to preserve viral biological and antigenic characteristics, which is crucial in FMD monitoring and vaccine production. However, only a few cell lines are sensitive to FMDV, and there is still a lot of room for improvement. Acetylation is an important post-translational modification, which is dynamically regulated by histone acetyltransferases (HATs) and histone deacetylases (HDACs). However, the study of the relationship between FMDV and HDACs is still unclear. HDAC9 belongs to the class II of HDACs family; in this study, HDAC9 knockout (KO) BHK-21 cells were successfully established using CRISPR/cas9 technology. The
