Mechanism of mda-5 Inhibition by paramyxovirus V proteins.
The RNA helicases encoded by melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (mda-5) and retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I) detect foreign cytoplasmic RNA molecules generated during the course of a virus infection, and their activation leads to induction of type I interferon synthesis. Paramyxoviruses limit the amount of interferon produced by infected cells through the action of their V protein...
متن کاملmda-5, but not RIG-I, is a common target for paramyxovirus V proteins.
The induction of IFN-beta by the paramyxovirus PIV5 (formerly known as SV5) is limited by the action of the viral V protein that targets the cellular RNA helicase mda-5. Here we show that 12 other paramyxoviruses also target mda-5 by a direct interaction between the conserved cysteine-rich C-terminus of their V proteins and the helicase domain of mda-5. The inhibition of IFN-beta induction is n...
متن کاملAntagonism of Innate Immunity by Paramyxovirus Accessory Proteins
Paramyxovirinae, a subfamily of Paramyxoviridae, are negative strand RNA viruses comprised of many important human and animal pathogens, which share a high degree of genetic and structural homology. The accessory proteins expressed from the P/V/C gene are major factors in the pathogenicity of the viruses, because of their ability to abrogate various facets of type I interferon (IFN) induction a...
متن کاملFunction of small hydrophobic proteins of paramyxovirus.
Mumps virus (MuV), a rubulavirus of the paramyxovirus family, causes acute infections in humans. MuV has seven genes including a small hydrophobic (SH) gene, which encodes a type I membrane protein of 57 amino acid residues. The function of the SH protein is not clear, although its expression is not necessary for growth of MuV in tissue culture cells. It is speculated that MuV SH plays a role i...
متن کاملKinetic dependence of paramyxovirus entry inhibition.
Peptides derived from conserved heptad repeat (HR) regions of paramyxovirus fusion (F) proteins inhibit viral fusion by interfering with the formation of the fusogenic six-helix bundle structure. Peptide efficacy is affected by the strength of the peptide association with the target virus's complementary HR region. Here, we show that a second basis for peptide efficacy lies in the kinetics of F...
