    Abstract In the absence of an intact interferon (IFN) response, mammals may be susceptible to lethal viral infection. IFNs are secreted cytokines that activate a signal transduction cascade leading to the induction of hundreds of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs). Remarkably, approximately 10% of the genes in the human genome have the potential to be regulated by IFNs. What do all of these genes do? It is a complex question without a simple answer. From decades of research, we know that many of the protein products encoded by these ISGs work alone or in concert to achieve one or more cellular outcomes, including antiviral defense, antiproliferative activities, and stimulation of adaptive immunity. The focus of this review is the antiviral activities of the IFN/ISG system. This includes general paradigms of ISG function, supported by specific examples in the literature, as well as methodologies to identify and characterize ISG function.

    Abstract Bats are considered unique in their ability to harbor large numbers of viruses and serve as reservoirs for zoonotic viruses that have the potential to spill over into humans. However, these animals appear relatively resistant to the pathogenic effects of many viruses. Mounting evidence suggests that bats may tolerate viral infections due to unique immune features. These include evolutionary innovations in inflammatory pathways and in the molecules involved in viral sensing, interferon induction, and downstream interferon-induced antiviral effectors. We sought to determine whether interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) from the black flying fox (

    Abstract Mammalian TRIM7 is an antiviral protein that inhibits multiple human enteroviruses by degrading the viral 2BC protein. Whether TRIM7 is reciprocally targeted by enteroviruses is not known. Here, we report that the 3C protease (3Cpro) from two enteroviruses, coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) and poliovirus, targets TRIM7 for cleavage. CVB3 3Cpro cleaves TRIM7 at glutamine 24 (Q24), resulting in a truncated TRIM7 that fails to inhibit CVB3 due to dampened E3 ubiquitin ligase activity. TRIM7 Q24 is highly conserved across mammals, except in marsupials, which instead have a naturally occurring histidine (H24) that is not subject to 3Cpro cleavage. Marsupials also express two isoforms of TRIM7, and the two proteins from koalas have distinct antiviral activities. The longer isoform contains an additional exon due to alternate splice site usage. This additional exon contains a unique 3Cpro cleavage site, suggesting that certain enteroviruses may have evolved to target marsupial TRIM7 even if the canonical Q24 is missing. Combined with computational analyses indicating that TRIM7 is rapidly evolving, our data raise the possibility that TRIM7 may be targeted by enterovirus evasion strategies and that evolution of TRIM7 across mammals may have conferred unique antiviral properties.

    Abstract The innate immune sensor RIG-I recognizes viral RNA while avoiding unwanted activation by self RNA. In this issue of Immunity, Schuberth-Wagner et al. (2015) show that a histidine residue in the RNA binding pocket of RIG-I sterically excludes the cap1 structure of self RNA, thereby preventing downstream activation.

    Abstract The Receptor Transporter Protein (RTP) family is present in most, if not all jawed vertebrates. Most of our knowledge of this protein family comes from studies on mammalian RTPs, which are multi-function proteins that regulate cell-surface G-protein coupled receptor levels, influence olfactory system development, regulate immune signaling, and directly inhibit viral infection. However, mammals comprise less than one-tenth of extant vertebrate species, and our knowledge about the expression, function, and evolution of non-mammalian RTPs is limited. Here, we explore the evolutionary history of RTPs in vertebrates. We identify signatures of positive selection in many vertebrate RTP clades and characterize multiple, independent expansions of the RTP family outside of what has been described in mammals. We find a striking expansion of RTPs in the African clawed frog, Xenopus laevis, with 11 RTPs in this species as opposed to 1 to 4 in most other species. RNA sequencing revealed that most X. laevis RTPs are upregulated following immune stimulation. In functional assays, we demonstrate that at least three of these X. laevis RTPs inhibit infection by RNA viruses, suggesting that RTP homologs may serve as antiviral effectors outside of Mammalia.

    Abstract Zika virus (ZIKV) is an emerging pathogen with global health and economic impacts. ZIKV circulates as two major lineages, Asian or African. The Asian lineage has recently been associated with significant disease in humans. Numerous studies have revealed differences between African and Asian ZIKV strains with respect to cellular infectivity, pathogenesis, and immune activation. Less is known about the mechanism of ZIKV entry and whether viral entry differs between strains. Here, we characterized ZIKV entry with two Asian and two African strains. All viruses exhibited a requirement for clathrin-mediated endocytosis and Rab5a function. Additionally, all ZIKV strains tested were sensitive to pH in the range of 6.5-6.1 and were reliant on endosomal acidification for infection. Finally, we provide direct evidence that ZIKV primarily fuses with late endosomes. These findings contribute new insight into the ZIKV entry process and suggest that divergent ZIKV strains enter cells in a highly conserved manner.
