酰基辅酶A结合结构域蛋白3在病原微生物复制中的作用

病毒及细菌等病原微生物侵入细胞后,复制过程离不开宿主细胞内的宿主蛋白.近年来研究表明,酰基辅酶A结合结构域蛋白3(ACBD3)可以与一些病原体的蛋白质相互作用,影响病原体微生物在宿主细胞的复制.本文通过总结爱知病毒、柯萨奇病毒、脊髓灰质炎病毒、丙肝病毒、人类鼻病毒以及沙门氏菌侵染宿主细胞时,病毒蛋白质与ACBD3及磷脂酰肌醇4-激酶B(PI4KB)相互作用的研究进展,探讨ACBD3在病原微生物中的作用.     

Targeted Deletion of FGL2 Leads to Increased Early Viral Replication and Enhanced Adaptive Immunity in a Murine Model of Acute Viral Hepatitis Caused by LCMV WE

Mounting effective innate and adaptive immune responses are critical for viral clearance and the generation of long lasting immunity. It is known that production of inhibitory factors may result in the inability of the host to clear viruses, resulting in chronic viral persistence. Fibrinogen-like protein 2 (FGL2) has been identified as a novel effector molecule of CD4⁺CD25⁺ Foxp3⁺ regulatory T (Treg) cells that inhibits immune activity by binding to FCγRIIB expressed primarily on antigen presenting cells (APC). In this study, we show that infection of mice with Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis Virus WE (LCMV WE) leads to increased plasma levels of FGL2, which were detected as early as 2 days post-infection (pi) and persisted until day 50 pi. Mice deficient in FGL2 (fgl2^−/−) had increased viral titers of LCMV WE in the liver early p.i but cleared the virus by day 12 similar to wild type mice. Dendritic cells (DC) isolated from the spleens of LCMV WE infected fgl2^−/− had increased expression of the DC maturation markers CD80 and MHC Class II compared to wild type (fgl2^+/+). Frequencies of CD8⁺ and CD4⁺ T cells producing IFNγ in response to ex vivo peptide re-stimulation isolated from the spleen and lymph nodes were also increased in LCMV WE infected fgl2 ^−/− mice. Increased frequencies of CD8⁺ T cells specific for LCMV tetramers GP₃₃ and NP₃₉₆ were detected within the liver of fgl2^−/− mice. Plasma from fgl2^−/− mice contained higher titers of total and neutralizing anti-LCMV antibody. Enhanced anti-viral immunity in fgl2^−/− mice was associated with increased levels of serum alanine transaminase (ALT), hepatic necrosis and inflammation following LCMV WE infection. These data demonstrate that targeting FGL2 leads to early increased viral replication but enhanced anti-viral adaptive T & B cell responses. Targeting FGL2 may enhance the efficacy of current anti-viral therapies for hepatotropic viruses.     

The DEAD-Box RNA Helicase DDX1 Interacts with the Viral Protein 3D and Inhibits Foot-and-Mouth Disease Virus Replication

Foot-and-mouth disease virus(FMDV) can infect domestic and wild cloven-hoofed animals. The non-structural protein 3 D plays an important role in FMDV replication and pathogenesis. However, the interaction partners of 3 D, and the effects of those interactions on FMDV replication, remain incompletely elucidated. In the present study, using the yeast two-hybrid system, we identified a porcine cell protein, DEAD-box RNA helicase 1(DDX1), which interacted with FMDV 3 D. The DDX1-3 D interaction was further confirmed by co-immunoprecipitation experiments and an indirect immunofluorescence assay(IFA) in porcine kidney 15(PK-15) cells. DDX1 was reported to either inhibit or facilitate viral replication and regulate host innate immune responses. However, the roles of DDX1 during FMDV infection remain unclear. Our results revealed that DDX1 inhibited FMDV replication in an ATPase/helicase activity-dependent manner. In addition, DDX1 stimulated IFN-b activation in FMDV-infected cells. Together, our results expand the body of knowledge regarding the role of DDX1 in FMDV infection.
