The influenza A endoribonuclease PA-X regulates virulence and transmission of the virus by reducing host gene expression and thus regulating immune responses to influenza A virus. Despite this key function in viral biology, the levels of PA-X protein remain markedly low during infection, and previous results suggest that these low levels are not solely the result of regulation of the level of translation and RNA stability. How PA-X is regulated post-translationally remains unknown. We now report that the PA-X protein is rapidly turned over. PA-X from multiple viral strains are short-lived, although the half-life of PA-X ranges from ∼30 minutes to ∼3.5 hours depending on the strain. Moreover, sequences in the variable PA-X C-terminal domain are primarily responsible for regulating PA-X half-life, although the N-terminal domain also accounts for some differences among strains. Interestingly, we find that the PA-X from the 2009 pandemic H1N1 strain has a longer half-life compared to the other variants we tested.from the 2009 pandemic H1N1 strain correlates with its reported higher activity. https://www.selleckchem.com/ Therefore, PA-X stability may be a way to regulate its activity and may contribute to the differential virulence of influenza A virus strains.The limited antiviral options and lack of an effective vaccine against human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) highlight the need for a novel antiviral therapy. One alternative is to identify and target the host factors required for viral infection. Here, using RNA interference to knock down Rab proteins, we provide multiple lines of evidence that Rab5a is required for RSV infection (a) Rab5a is upregulated both in RSV-A2-infected A549 cells and RSV-A2-challenged BALB/c mice's airway epithelial cells at early infection phase; (b) shRNA-mediated knockdown of Rab5a is associated with reduced lung pathology in RSV A2 challenged mice; (c) Rab5a expression is correlated with disease severity of RSV infection of infants. Knockdown of Rab5a increases IFN-λ (lambda) production by mediating IRF1 nuclear translocation. Our results highlight a new role for Rab5a in RSV infection, such that its depletion inhibits RSV infection by stimulating the endogenous respiratory epithelial antiviral immunity, which suggests that Rab5a is a potential target for novel therapeutics against RSV infection.Importance This study highlights the important role of Rab5a in RSV infection, such that its depletion inhibits RSV infection by stimulating the endogenous respiratory epithelial antiviral immunity and attenuates inflammation of the airway, which suggests that Rab5a is a powerful potential target for novel therapeutics against RSV infection.Tetraspanins are four-span transmembrane proteins that organize the membrane by forming tetraspanin-enriched microdomains. These have been shown to be important for virus entry. The human herpesvirus (HHV)-6A receptor CD46 is known to form complexes with the tetraspanin CD9 and β1-integrins, however the significance of this for HHV-6A infection remains unexplored. Using a genetic approach, we demonstrate that knock out of CD46 abolishes binding to and infection of SupT1 cells by both HHV-6A and HHV-6B, establishing CD46 as a necessary receptor for productive infection of these cells. Knock out of CD9 in SupT1 cells had no effect on binding of either virus to the cell surface, but it reduced expression of immediate early transcripts to between 25-60% compared with the wild type cells. Although HHV-6B required CD46 for infection of SupT1, infection of Molt3 cells was independent of CD46 expression. Conversely, the absence of CD9 expression promoted infection of Molt3 cells with HHV-6B, indicating a negative rol additional receptor for HHV-6B entry exists. Moreover, elimination of CD9 and subsequent reconstitution experiments demonstrated that CD9 promoted infection with HHV-6A and HHV-6B mediated by CD46, but inhibited infection with HHV-6B that occurred independent of CD46. Together, this demonstrated a CD46-dependent role of CD9 during infection with HHV-6A and HHV-6B and emphasized that HHV-6B may employ different entry mechanisms in various cells.Peste des petits ruminants virus (PPRV) is an important pathogen that seriously influences the productivity of small ruminants worldwide. PPRV has evolved several mechanisms to evade IFN-I responses. We report that a novel microRNA in goat PBMCs, novel miR-3, was upregulated by PPRV to facilitate virus infection. Furthermore, PPRV V protein alone was sufficient to induce novel miR-3 expression, and NF-κB and p38 pathway may involved in the induction of novel miR-3 during PPRV infection. Importantly, we demonstrated that novel miR-3 was a potent negative regulator of IFN-α production by targeting IRAK1, which resulted in the enhancement of PPRV infection. In addition, we found that PPRV infection can activated ISGs through IFN independent and IRF3 dependent pathway. Moreover, our data revealed that novel miR-3 mediated regulation of IFN-α production may involve in the differential susceptibility between goat and sheep to PPRV. Taken together, our findings identified a new strategy taken by PPRV to escape IFN-Iractions, and revealed a potential therapeutic target for antiviral intervention.The cure for HIV-1 is currently stalled by our inability to specifically identify and target latently infected cells. HIV-1 viral RNA/DNA or viral proteins are recognized by cellular mechanisms and induce interferon responses in virus producing cells, but changes in latently infected cells remain unknown. HIVGKO contains a GFP reporter under the HIV-1 promoter and an mKO2 reporter under the internal EF1α promoter. This viral construct enables direct identification of HIV-1 both productively and latently infected cells. In this study we aim to identify specific cellular transcriptional responses triggered by HIV-1 entry and integration using Cap Analysis of Gene Expression (CAGE).We deep sequenced CAGE tags in uninfected, latently and productively infected cells and compared their differentially expressed transcription start site (TSS) profiles. Virus producing cells had differentially expressed TSSs related to T-cell activation and apoptosis when compared to uninfected cells or latently infected cells. Surprisingly, latently infected cells had only 33 differentially expressed TSSs compared to uninfected cells.
