Abstract
ABSTRACT
Avian reovirus (ARV) causes viral arthritis, chronic respiratory diseases, retarded growth, and malabsorption syndrome. The ARV p10 protein, a viroporin responsible for the induction of cell syncytium formation and apoptosis, is rapidly degraded in host cells. Our previous report demonstrated that cellular lysosome-associated membrane protein 1 (LAMP-1) interacted with p10 and was involved in its degradation. However, the molecular mechanism underlying LAMP-1-mediated p10 degradation remains elusive. We report here that the E3 ubiquitin ligase seven in absentia homolog 1 (Siah-1) is critical for p10 ubiquitylation. Our data show that Siah-1 ubiquitylated p10 and targeted it for proteasome degradation. Furthermore, the ubiquitylation of p10 by Siah-1 required the participation of LAMP-1 by forming a multicomponent complex. Thus, LAMP-1 promotes the proteasomal degradation of p10 via interacting with both p10 and the E3 ligase Siah-1. These data establish a novel host defense mechanism where LAMP-1 serves as a scaffold for both Siah-1 and p10 that allows the E3 ligase targeting p10 for ubiquitylation and degradation to suppress ARV infection.
IMPORTANCE
Avian reovirus (ARV) is an important poultry pathogen causing viral arthritis, chronic respiratory diseases, retarded growth, and malabsorption syndrome, leading to considerable economic losses to the poultry industry across the globe. The ARV p10 protein is a virulence factor responsible for the induction of cell syncytium formation and apoptosis and is rapidly degraded in host cells. We previously found that cellular lysosome-associated membrane protein 1 (LAMP-1) interacts with p10 and is involved in its degradation. Here we report that the E3 ubiquitin ligase seven in absentia homolog 1 (Siah-1) ubiquitylated p10 and targeted it for proteasomal degradation. Furthermore, the ubiquitylation of p10 by Siah-1 required the participation of LAMP-1 by forming a multicomponent complex. Thus, LAMP-1 serves as an adaptor to allow Siah-1 to target p10 for degradation, thereby suppressing ARV growth in host cells.
