UBR5 promotes antiviral immunity by disengaging the transcriptional brake on RIG-I like receptors

ABSTRACT: RIG-I like receptors (RLRs) are the major viral RNA sensors essential for the initiation of antiviral immune responses to numerous RNA viruses. RLRs are subjected to stringent transcriptional and posttranslational regulations, of which ubiquitination is one of the most important. However, the role of ubiquitination in RLR transcription is unknown. Here, we generated, screened 375 definite ubiquitin ligase knockout cell lines and identified UBR5 as a positive regulator of RLR transcription. UBR5 deficiency (UBR5-/-) reduced antiviral immune responses to RNA viruses, while increased viral replication in primary cells and mice. Ubr5-/- mice were more susceptible to lethal RNA virus infection than Ubr5+/+ littermates. Mechanistically, UBR5 mediated the Lysine 63-linked ubiquitination of TRIM28, an epigenetic repressor of RLRs. This modification prevented intramolecular SUMOylation of TRIM28, thus disengaged the TRIM28-imposed brake on RLR transcription. In sum, UBR5 enables rapid upregulation of RLR expression to boost antiviral immune responses by ubiquitinating and de-SUMOylating TRIM28.

MicroRNA profiling in HEK293T cells after NDV infection

Project description:Mammals have highly evolved receptors for sensing invading viral pathogens. RLRs comprise of one such family of receptors involved in sensing RNA viruses. The antiviral signaling cascade is tightly regulatedd by various post transcriptional modifications however the post transcriptional regulation by microRNAs is not well understood. We performed miRNA profiling to identify miRNAs induced by virus infections with potential role in regulating RLR signaling cascade.

RIG-I and MDA5 fRIP during KSHV lytic reactivation

Project description:The RIG-I like receptors (RLRs) RIG-I and MDA5 are cytosolic RNA helicases best characterized as restriction factors for RNA viruses. However, evidence suggests RLRs participate in innate immune recognition of other pathogens, including DNA viruses. Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is a human gammaherpesvirus and the etiological agent of Kaposi's sarcoma and primary effusion lymphoma (PEL). We demonstrate that RIG-I and MDA5 restrict KSHV lytic reactivation in PEL. By performing fRIP-Seq, we define the in vivo RLR substrates and demonstrate that RIG-I and MDA5-mediated restriction is facilitated exclusively by the recognition of host-derived RNAs.

RIG-I-Like-Receptors Induce Unique and Complimentary Transcriptional Programs Following West Nile Virus Infection Leading to Macrophage Polarization and Protection

Project description:The study shows that RLRs drive distinct immune gene activation and polarization of the immune response. In our data, the RLR-dependent, WNV-induced immune response polarization overshadows the classical drivers of viral innate immune responses, interferon I (IFN) and IFN-stimulated genes, thus underscoring the importance of innate immune activation for channeling the adaptive immune system into specific effector pathways

KAP1-mediated epigenetic suppression in anti-RNA viral responses by direct targeting RIG-I and MDA5

Project description:Retinoic acid-inducible gene-I (RIG-I)-like receptors (RLRs), including RIG-I (encoded by Ddx58) and MDA5 (melanoma-differentiation-associated gene 5, encoded by Ifih1), are crucial for initiating antiviral responses. Endogenous retroviral elements (ERVs) are transposable elements derived from exogenous retrovirus that integrated into the genome. KRAB-associated protein 1 (KAP1) is a master epigenetic suppressor of ERVs, and thereby protects cells from detrimental genome instability. Increased ERV transcripts are sensed by RLRs and trigger innate immune signaling. However, whether KAP1 could directly control RLRs activity remain unclear. Here we show that KAP1 attenuates RNA viral infection induced type I IFNs and facilitates viral replication by inhibiting RIG-I/MDA5 expression in primary peritoneal macrophages of C57BL/6J mice. Kap1 deficiency increased IFN-β expression and inhibited VSV replication in C57BL/6J mice in vivo. Mechanistically, KAP1 binds to the promoter regions of Ddx58 and Ifih1, and promotes the establishment of repressive histone marks in primary peritoneal macrophages of C57BL/6J mice. Concordantly, KAP1 suppresses the expression of RIG-I and MDA5 at transcriptional level in primary peritoneal macrophages of C57BL/6J mice. Our results establish that KAP1 epigenetically suppresses host antiviral responses by direct targeting RIG-1 and MDA5, and thus facilitates the immune escape of RNA viruses.

Stress granules are shock absorbers that prevent excessive innate immune responses to dsRNA

Project description:Proper defense against microbial infection depends on the controlled activation of the immune system. This is particularly important for the innate immune receptors that recognize viral double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) and initiate antiviral immune responses with the potential of triggering systemic inflammation and immunopathology. How the functions of the dsRNA receptors and their downstream effector molecules are coordinately regulated to avoid excessive immune response is poorly understood. We here demonstrate that stress granules (SGs), biomolecular condensates that form in response to various stresses including viral dsRNA, play key roles in regulating dsRNA-triggered immune response. Upon dsRNA stimulation, SGs recruit many innate immune molecules, including RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs), protein kinase R (PKR) and oligoadenylate synthases (OASes), target these molecules and dsRNA for autophagy and limit their functions through sequestration. In the absence of SGs, dsRNA stimulation results in hyperactivation of inflammatory signaling pathways, global translational arrest and bulk RNA degradation, altogether compromising the cellular capacity to restore homeostasis and triggering cell death. In contrast to most dsRNA-induced immune signaling pathways that are hyperactivated in the absence of SGs, a sub-branch of the RLR pathway (IRF3-dependent type I interferon signaling) shows time-dependent changes, where the initial spike in signaling is followed by a significant drop due to increased caspase-dependent negative feedback regulation. This highlights the role of SGs in regulating the delicate balance between the type I interferon pathway and cell death. Altogether, our data suggest that cells utilize SGs as shock absorbers to moderate antiviral innate immune response, thereby allowing cells to guard against its own immune system as well as viruses.

RNA sequencing of zebrafish embryos under simulated microgravity conditions

Project description:To reveal the potential mechanisms involved in the dysfunction of antiviral immune responses under simulated microgravity conditions, we investigated the transcriptional changes related to the status of innate immune responses by RNA-seq with poly I:C or mock PBS treatment under Normal gravity or simulated microgravity conditions. Our results indicate that the retinoic acid inducible gene (RIG)-I-like receptor (RLR) and Toll-like receptor (TLR) signal pathways, which are both involved in the type-I interferon induction, are significantly inhibited by simulated microgravity effects.

A systems approach reveals MAVS signaling in myeloid cells as critical in resistance to Ebola virus in murine models of infection

Project description:The unprecedented 2013-16 outbreak of Ebola virus (EBOV) in West Africa resulted in over 11,300 human deaths. Host resistance to EBOV is thought to involve RIG-I-like receptor (RLR) signaling through the adaptor protein, mitochondrial antiviral signaling (MAVS), but role of RLR-MAVS in orchestrating anti-EBOV responses in vivo is not known. Here, we apply a systems approach to MAVS-deficient mice infected with either wild-type or mouse-adapted EBOV. MAVS controlled EBOV replication through expression of IFNα, IFN-stimulated genes, and regulation of inflammatory responses in the spleen, and prevented cell death in the liver, with macrophages implicated as a major cell-type influencing host resistance. A dominant role for RLR signaling in macrophages was confirmed following conditional deletion of MAVS in LysM+ myeloid cells. These findings reveal tissue-specific transcriptional pathways controlled by RLR signaling in resistance to EBOV, and suggest that EBOV adaptation to cause disease in mice is linked in part to increased antagonism of RLR-dependent signaling.

Y RNAs are conserved endogenous RIG-I ligands across RNA virus infection and are targeted by HIV-1

Project description:Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) protect against microbial invasion by detecting specific molecular patterns found in pathogens and initiating an immune response. While microbial-derived PRR ligands have been extensively characterized, the contribution and relevance of endogenous ligands to PRR activation remains overlooked. Here, we characterize the landscape of endogenous ligands that engage RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs) upon infection by different RNA viruses. In each infection, several RNAs transcribed by RNA polymerase III (Pol3) specifically engaged RLRs, particularly the family of Y RNAs. Sensing of Y RNAs was dependent on their mimicking of viral secondary structure and their 5’-triphosphate extremity. Further, we found that HIV-1 triggered a VPR-dependent downregulation of RNA triphosphatase DUSP11 in vitro and in vivo, inducing a transcriptome-wide change of cellular RNA 5’-triphosphorylation that licenses Y RNA immunogenicity. Overall, our work uncovers the contribution of endogenous RNAs to antiviral immunity and demonstrates the importance of this pathway in HIV-1 infection.
