摘要: Porcine teschovirus (PTV) can cause reproductive dysfunction and respiratory diseases, with high mortality rates for sick pigs. Among Picornaviridae family virus-encoded proteins, the VP1 structural protein is critical for viral immune evasion. However, whether PTV VP1 inhibits the type I interferon (IFN) response remains unknown. Here, it shows that the PTV VP1 protein significantly hinders the activation of NF-kappa B, impairing Sendai virus-induced expression of beta IFN (IFN-beta). Further studies revealed that VP1 targets and interacts with the MDA5 factor in the RIG-I like receptors pathway. More importantly, the VP1 protein interacts with the caspase activation and recruitment domain and Hel domains of MDA5, blocking IFN-beta expression. Our findings provide evidence about the VP1 protein of PTV hinders MDA5 activation and may represent a viral mechanism to escape the innate immune response.
