Abstract

DDX3 belongs to the DEAD box RNA helicase family and is a multifunctional protein affecting the life cycle of a variety of viruses. However, its role in influenza virus infection is unknown. In this study, we explored the potential role of DDX3 in influenza virus life cycle and discovered that DDX3 is an antiviral protein. Since many host proteins affect virus life cycle by interacting with certain components of the viral machinery, we first verified whether DDX3 has any viral interaction partners. Immunoprecipitation studies revealed NS1 and NP as direct interaction partners of DDX3. Stress granules (SGs) are known to be antiviral and do form in influenza virus-infected cells expressing defective NS1 protein. Additionally, a recent study showed that DDX3 is an important SG-nucleating factor. We thus explored whether DDX3 plays a role in influenza virus infection through regulation of SGs. Our results showed that SGs were formed in infected cells upon infection with a mutant influenza virus lacking functional NS1 (del NS1) protein, and DDX3 colocalized with NP in SGs. We further determined that the DDX3 helicase domain did not interact with NS1 and NP; however, it was essential for DDX3 localization in virus-induced SGs. Knockd...Continue Reading
