Double-stranded RNA is produced by positive-strand RNA viruses and DNA viruses but not in detectable amounts by negative-strand RNA viruses 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14 下载免费PDF全文
Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) longer than 30 bp is a key activator of the innate immune response against viral infections. It is widely assumed that the generation of dsRNA during genome replication is a trait shared by all viruses. However, to our knowledge, no study exists in which the production of dsRNA by different viruses is systematically investigated. Here, we investigated the presence and localization of dsRNA in cells infected with a range of viruses, employing a dsRNA-specific antibody for immunofluorescence analysis. Our data revealed that, as predicted, significant amounts of dsRNA can be detected for viruses with a genome consisting of positive-strand RNA, dsRNA, or DNA. Surprisingly, however, no dsRNA signals were detected for negative-strand RNA viruses. Thus, dsRNA is indeed a general feature of most virus groups, but negative-strand RNA viruses appear to be an exception to that rule. 相似文献

Identification of an RNA silencing suppressor from a plant double-stranded RNA virus 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9 下载免费PDF全文
RNA silencing is a mechanism which higher plants and animals have evolved to defend against viral infection in addition to regulation of gene expression for growth and development. As a counterdefense, many plant and some animal viruses studied to date encode RNA silencing suppressors (RSS) that interfere with various steps of the silencing pathway. In this study, we report the first identification of an RSS from a plant double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) virus. Pns10, encoded by S10 of Rice dwarf phytoreovirus (RDV), exhibited RSS activity in coinfiltration assays with the reporter green fluorescent protein (GFP) in transgenic Nicotiana benthamiana line 16c carrying GFP. The other gene segments of the RDV genome did not have such a function. Pns10 suppressed local and systemic silencing induced by sense RNA but did not interfere with local and systemic silencing induced by dsRNA. Expression of Pns10 also increased the expression of beta-glucuronidase in transient assays and enhanced Potato virus X pathogenicity in N. benthamiana. Collectively, our results establish Pns10 as an RSS encoded by a plant dsRNA virus and further suggest that Pns10 targets an upstream step of dsRNA formation in the RNA silencing pathway. 相似文献

Sequestration and protection of double-stranded RNA by the betanodavirus b2 protein 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1 下载免费PDF全文
Betanodavirus B2 belongs to a group of functionally related proteins from the sense-strand RNA virus family Nodaviridae that suppress cellular RNA interference. The B2 proteins of insect alphanodaviruses block RNA interference by binding to double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), thus preventing Dicer-mediated cleavage and the subsequent generation of short interfering RNAs. We show here that the fish betanodavirus B2 protein also binds dsRNA. Binding is sequence independent, and maximal binding occurs with dsRNA substrates greater than 20 bp in length. The binding of B2 to long dsRNA is sufficient to completely block Dicer cleavage of dsRNA in vitro. Protein-protein interaction studies indicated that B2 interacts with itself and with other dsRNA binding proteins, the interaction occurring through binding to shared dsRNA substrates. Induction of the dsRNA-dependent interferon response was not antagonized by B2, as the interferon-responsive Mx gene of permissive fish cells was induced by wild-type viral RNA1 but not by a B2 mutant. The induction of Mx instead relied solely on viral RNA1 accumulation, which is impaired in the B2 mutant. Hyperediting of virus dsRNA and site-specific editing of 5-HT2C mRNA were both antagonized by B2. RNA editing was not, however, observed in transfected wild-type or B2 mutant RNA1, suggesting that this pathway does not contribute to the RNA1 accumulation defect of the B2 mutant. We thus conclude that betanodavirus B2 is a dsRNA binding protein that sequesters and protects both long and short dsRNAs to protect betanodavirus from cellular RNA interference. 相似文献

Quick and facile transient RNA interference (RNAi) is one of the most valuable plant biotechnologies for analysing plant gene functions. To establish a novel double‐strand RNA (dsRNA) delivery system for plants, we developed an ionic complex of synthetic dsRNA with a carrier peptide in which a cell‐penetrating peptide is fused with a polycation sequence as a gene carrier. The dsRNA–peptide complex is 100–300 nm in diameter and positively charged. Infiltration of the complex into intact leaf cells of Arabidopsis thaliana successfully induced rapid and efficient down‐regulation of exogenous and endogenous genes such as yellow fluorescent protein and chalcone synthase. The present method realizes quick and local gene silencing in specific tissues and/or organs in plants. 相似文献

RNA interference (RNAi) is a promising strategy to combat shrimp viral pathogens at lab-scale experiments. Development of effective orally delivered agents for double-stranded (ds)RNA is necessary for RNAi application at farm level. Since continuous shrimp cell lines have not been established, we are developing a dsRNA-delivery system in Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9) cells for studying in vitro RNAi-mediated gene silencing of shrimp virus. Sf9 cells challenged with yellow head virus (YHV) were used for validating nanoparticles as effective dsRNA carriers. Inexpensive and biodegradable polymers, chitosan and its quarternized derivative (QCH4), were formulated with long dsRNA (>100 bp) targeting YHV. Their morphology and physicochemical properties were examined. When treated with chitosan- and QCH4-dsRNA complexes, at least 50% reduction in YHV infection in Sf9 cells relative to the untreated control was evident at 24h post infection with low cytoxicity. Inhibitory effects of chitosan- and QCH4-dsRNA complexes were comparable to that of dsRNA formulated with Cellfectin(?), a commercial lipid-based transfection reagent. The natural and quaternized chitosan prepared in this study can be used for shrimp virus-specific dsRNA delivery in insect cultures, and have potential for future development of dsRNA carriers in shrimp feed. 相似文献
