Beschreibung:
Although interferon (IFN) signaling induces genes that limit viral infection, many pathogenic viruses overcome this host response. As an example, 2'-O methylation of the 5' cap of viral RNA subverts mammalian antiviral responses by evading restriction of Ifit1, an IFN-stimulated gene that regulates protein synthesis. However, alphaviruses replicate efficiently in cells expressing Ifit1 even though their genomic RNA has a 5' cap lacking 2'-O methylation. We show that pathogenic alphaviruses use secondary structural motifs within the 5' untranslated region (UTR) of their RNA to alter Ifit1 binding and function. Mutations within the 5'-UTR affecting RNA structural elements enabled restriction by or antagonism of Ifit1 in vitro and in vivo. These results identify an evasion mechanism by which viruses use RNA structural motifs to avoid immune restriction.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4209899/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉 〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4209899/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hyde, Jennifer L -- Gardner, Christina L -- Kimura, Taishi -- White, James P -- Liu, Gai -- Trobaugh, Derek W -- Huang, Cheng -- Tonelli, Marco -- Paessler, Slobodan -- Takeda, Kiyoshi -- Klimstra, William B -- Amarasinghe, Gaya K -- Diamond, Michael S -- AI049820/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- P41GM66326/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- P41RR02301/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI083383/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI104972/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- U19 AI083019/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- UL1 TR000071/TR/NCATS NIH HHS/ -- UL1TR000071/TR/NCATS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2014 Feb 14;343(6172):783-7. doi: 10.1126/science.1248465.
