Abstract:The untranslated regions (UTRs) located at the 5' and 3' ends of the Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) genome, a positive-sense RNA, are involved in viral translation, the initiation of RNA synthesis, and the packaging of nascent virions. The cellular and viral proteins that participate in these processes are expected to interact with the UTRs. In this study, we used biotinylated RNA-protein pulldown and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analyses to identify that the far upstream element (FUSE) binding protein 1 (FBP1) binds with JEV 5' and 3' UTRs. The impact of FBP1 on JEV infection was determined in cells with altered FBP1 expression. JEV replication was enhanced by knockdown and reduced by the overexpression of FBP1, indicating a negative role for FBP1 in JEV infection. FBP1, a nuclear protein, was redistributed to the perinuclear region and appeared as cytoplasmic foci that partially colocalized with JEV RNA in the early stage of JEV infection. By using a JEV replicon reporter assay, FBP1 appeared to suppress JEV protein expression mediated by the 5' and 3' UTRs. Thus, we suggest that FBP1 binds with the JEV UTR RNA and functions as a host anti-JEV defense molecule by repressing viral protein expression.
