The nucleolus is the largest structure in the nucleus, and it plays roles in mediating cellular stress responses and regulating cell proliferation, as well as in ribosome biosynthesis. The nucleolus is composed of a variety of nucleolar factors that interact with each other in a complex manner to enable its function. Many viral proteins interact with nucleolar factors as well, affecting cellular morphology and function. Here, to investigate the association between mumps virus (MuV) infection and the nucleolus, we evaluated the necessity of nucleolar factors for MuV proliferation by performing a knockdown of these factors with small interfering (si)RNAs. Our results reveal that suppressing the expression of Treacle, which is required for ribosome biosynthesis, reduced the proliferative potential of MuV. Additionally, the one-step growth kinetics results indicate that Treacle knockdown did not affect the viral RNA and protein synthesis of MuV, but it did impair the production of infectious virus particles. Viral matrix protein (M) was considered a candidate Treacle interaction partner because it functions in the process of particle formation in the viral life cycle and is partially localized in the nucleolus. Our data confirm that MuV M can interact with Treacle and colocalize with it in the nucleolus. Furthermore, we found that viral infection induces relocalization of Treacle in the nucleus. Together, these findings suggest that interaction with Treacle in the nucleolus is important for the M protein to exert its functions late in the MuV life cycle. The nucleolus, which is the site of ribosome biosynthesis, is a target organelle for many viruses. It is increasingly evident that viruses can favor their own replication and multiplication by interacting with various nucleolar factors. In this study, we found that the nucleolar protein Treacle, known to function in the transcription and processing of pre-rRNA, is required for the efficient propagation of mumps virus (MuV). Specifically, our data indicate that Treacle is not involved in viral RNA or protein synthesis but is important in the processes leading to viral particle production in MuV infection. Additionally, we determined that MuV matrix protein (M), which functions mainly in viral particle assembly and budding, colocalized and interacted with Treacle. Furthermore, we found that Treacle is distributed throughout the nucleus in MuV-infected cells. Our research shows that the interaction between M and Treacle supports efficient viral growth in the late stage of MuV infection.
