PRKX down-regulates TAK1/IRF7 signaling in the antiviral innate immunity of black carp Mylopharyngodon piceus.

ABSTRACT: TGF-β-activated kinase-1 (TAK1), tightly related to innate immunity, is phosphorylated and activated by X-linked protein kinase (PRKX) in humans and mammals, which belongs to the c-AMP-dependent protein kinase family. However, the relationship between PRKX and TAK1 remains unknown in teleost. It has been reported in vertebrates for the first time that TAK1 of black carp (bcTAK1) interacts with bcIRF7 and is capable to up-regulate bcIRF7-mediated IFN signaling in our previous study. In this study, the role of PRKX homologue of black carp (Mylopharyngodon piceus) (bcPRKX) in bcTAK1/IFN signaling has been explored. Overexpression of bcPRKX suppressed the transcription of interferon promoters but enhanced the transcription of NF-κB promoter. Mylopharyngodon piceus kidney (MPK) ce
