Retinoic acid inducible gene-I (RIG-I) is a cytosolic pathogen recognition receptor that initiates the immune response against many RNA viruses. Upon RNA ligand binding, RIG-I undergoes a conformational change facilitating its homo-oligomerization and activation that results in its translocation from the cytosol to intracellular membranes to bind its signaling adaptor protein, mitochondrial antiviral-signaling protein (MAVS). Here we show that RIG-I activation is regulated by reversible acetylation. Acetyl-mimetic mutants of RIG-I do not form virus-induced homo-oligomers, revealing that acetyl-lysine residues of the RIG-I repressor domain prevent assembly to active homo-oligomers. During acute infection, deacetylation of RIG-I promotes its oligomerization upon ligand binding. We identify histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) as the deacetylase that promotes RIG-I activation and innate antiviral immunity to recognize and restrict RNA virus infection.
视黄酸诱导基因-I(RIG-I)是一种胞质病原体识别受体,可引发针对多种 RNA 病毒的免疫反应。在 RNA 配体结合后,RIG-I 发生构象变化,促进其同源寡聚化和激活,从而使其从细胞质易位到细胞内膜以结合其信号转导衔接蛋白,线粒体抗病毒信号蛋白(MAVS)。在这里,我们表明 RIG-I 的激活受到可逆乙酰化的调节。RIG-I 的乙酰模拟突变体不能形成病毒诱导的同源寡聚体,这表明 RIG-I 抑制结构域的乙酰化赖氨酸残基阻止其组装成活性同源寡聚体。在急性感染期间,RIG-I 的去乙酰化作用促进其在配体结合时寡聚化。我们确定组蛋白去乙酰化酶 6(HDAC6)为促进 RIG-I 激活和先天抗病毒免疫的去乙酰化酶,以识别和限制 RNA 病毒感染。
