The results from Figure 1C suggest that ORF6 inhibits IFN-β production through IRF3 or a component downstream of IRF3. Thus, we examined the effect of ORF6 on IRF3 nuclear translocation. Upon poly(I:C) treatment, IRF3 translocated to the cell nucleus in the absence of ORF6, whereas the expression of ORF6 blocked its nuclear translocation (Figure 2D). Karyopherin α 1–6 (KPNA1–6) are importing factors for nuclear translocation of cargos, including IRF3, IRF7, and STAT1 (Chook and Blobel, 2001). Co-immunoprecipitation showed that ORF6 selectively interacted with KPNA2, but not the other KPNAs (Figure 2E), suggesting that ORF6 inhibits IFN-β production by binding to KPNA2 to block IRF3 nuclear translocation (Figure 2F). |
