Role of Adaptor TRIF in the MyD88-Independent Toll-like Receptor Signaling Pathway

In the last years, proteomics has represented a valuable approach to elucidate key aspects in the regulation of type I/III interferons (IFNs) and autophagy, two main processes involved in the response to viral infection, to unveil the molecular strategies that viruses have evolved to counteract these processes. Besides their main metabolic roles, mitochondria are well recognized as pivotal organelles in controlling signaling pathways essential to restrain viral infections. In particular, a major role in antiviral defense is played by mitochondrial antiviral signaling (MAVS) protein, an adaptor protein that coordinates the activation of IFN inducing pathways and autophagy at the mitochondrial level. Here, we provide an overview of how mass spectrometry-based studies of protein-protein interactions and post-translational modifications (PTMs) have fostered our understanding of the molecular mechanisms that control the mitochondria-mediated antiviral immunity.

RACK1 attenuates RLR antiviral signaling by targeting VISA-TRAF complexes

Simple Summary The health of Amphioctopus fangsiao, a species used in aquaculture or fish farming, can be greatly affected by infections. To understand how their immune system responds, we looked at the changes in their immune cells when exposed to substances that mimic these infections. By studying these responses, we were able to identify key parts of their immune system that change when faced with infection-causing threats. We also discovered important genes, including PKMYT1 (protein kinase, membrane associated tyrosine/threonine 1) and NAMPT (nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase), that play a crucial role in this response. Our study gives us a deeper understanding of the immune system of the Amphioctopus fangsiao. Abstract The primary influencer of aquaculture quality in Amphioctopus fangsiao is pathogen infection. Both lipopolysaccharides (LPS) and polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid (Poly I:C) are recognized by the pattern recognition receptor (PRR) within immune cells, a system that frequently serves to emulate pathogen invasion. Hemolymph, which functions as a transport mechanism for immune cells, offers vital transcriptome information when A. fangsiao is exposed to pathogens, thereby contributing to our comprehension of the species’ immune biological mechanisms. In this study, we conducted analyses of transcript profiles under the influence of LPS and Poly I:C within a 24 h period. Concurrently, we developed a Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA) to identify key modules and genes. Further, we carried out Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses to investigate the primary modular functions. Co-expression network analyses unveiled a series of immune response processes following pathogen stress, identifying several key modules and hub genes, including PKMYT1 and NAMPT. The invaluable genetic resources provided by our results aid our understanding of the immune response in A. fangsiao hemolymph and will further our exploration of the molecular mechanisms of pathogen infection in mollusks.

Viral infection triggers the innate antiviral immune response that rapidly produces type I interferons in most cell types to combat viruses invading. Upon viral infection, the cytoplasmic RNA sensors RIG-I/MDA5 recognize viral RNA, and then RIG-I/MDA5 is transported to mitochondria interacting with VISA through the CARD domain. From there, VISA recruits downstream antiviral signaling pathways molecules, such as TRAFs and TBK1. Eventually, IRF3 is phosphorylated and type I IFNs are induced to fight as the first line of defense against viruses. However, it remains unclear how VISA acts as a scaffold to assemble the signalosome in RIG-I-mediated antiviral signaling. Here, we demonstrated Sec13 as a novel component that was involved in VISA-mediated antiviral signaling pathway. The co-immunoprecipitation assays showed that Sec13 specifically interacts with VISA. Overexpression of Sec13 increases VISA’s aggregation and ubiquitination and significantly enhances the phosphorylation and dimerization of IRF3, facilitating the IFN-β production. Conversely, the knockdown of Sec13 attenuates Sendai virus-induced and VISA-mediated IRF3 activation and the production of IFNβ, thus weakens antiviral immune activity.

Mitochondrial DUT-M potentiates RLR-mediated antiviral signaling by enhancing VISA and TRAF2 association

Mitochondrial anti‑viral signaling protein (VISA), additionally termed MAVS, IPS‑1 and Cardif, is located at the outer membrane of mitochondria and is an essential adaptor in the Rig‑like receptor (RLRs) signaling pathway. Upon viral infection, activated RLRs interact with VISA on mitochondria, forming a RLR‑VISA platform, leading to the recruitment of different TRAF family members, including TRAF3, TRAF2 and TRAF6. This results in the phosphorylation and nuclear translocation of interferon regulatory factors 3 and 7 (IRF3/IRF7) by TANK binding kinase 1 (TBK1) and/or IKKe, as well as activation of NF‑κB, to induce type I interferons (IFNs) and pro‑inflammatory cytokines. It remains to be elucidated how VISA functions as a scaffold for protein complex assembly in mitochondria to regulate RLR‑VISA antiviral signaling. In the present study, it was demonstrated that HAUS augmin like complex subunit 8 (HAUS8) augments the RLR‑VISA‑dependent antiviral signaling pathway by targeting the VISA complex. Co‑immunoprecipitation verified that HAUS8 was associated with VISA and the VISA signaling complex components retinoic acid‑inducible gene I (RIG‑I) and TBK1 when the RLR‑VISA signaling pathway was activated. The data demonstrated that overexpression of HAUS8 significantly promoted the activity of the transcription factors NF‑κB, IRF3 and the IFN‑β promoter induced by Sendai virus‑mediated RLR‑VISA signaling. HAUS8 increased the polyubiquitination of VISA, RIG‑I and TBK1. Knockdown of HAUS8 inhibited the activation of the transcription factors IRF‑3, NF‑κB and the IFN‑β promoter triggered by Sendai virus. Collectively, these results demonstrated that HAUS8 may function as a positive regulator of RLR‑VISA dependent antiviral signaling by targeting the VISA complex, providing a novel regulatory mechanism of antiviral responses.
