Herc5, an interferon-induced HECT E3 enzyme, is required for conjugation of ISG15 in human cells.
ISG15 is an interferon (IFN)-alpha/beta-induced ubiquitin-like protein that is conjugated to cellular proteins during innate immune responses to viral and bacterial infections. A recent proteomics study identified 158 human proteins targeted for ISG15 conjugation, including the ISG15 E1 and E2 enzymes (Ube1L and UbcH8, respectively) and a HECT E3 enzyme, Herc5. Like the genes encoding Ube1L and...
متن کاملAntiviral Properties of ISG15
The type I interferon system plays a critical role in limiting the spread of viral infection. Viruses induce the production of interferon (IFN), which after binding to the IFN-α/β receptor (IFNAR), and triggering of the JAK/STAT signaling cascade, results in the induction of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs). These ISGs function to inhibit viral replication and to regulate the host immune resp...
متن کاملNegative feedback regulation of RIG-I-mediated antiviral signaling by interferon-induced ISG15 conjugation.
RIG-I senses intracellular virus-specific nucleic acid structures and initiates an antiviral response that induces interferon (IFN) production, which, in turn, activates the transcription of RIG-I to increase RIG-I protein levels. Upon intracellular poly(I:C) stimulation, however, the levels of RIG-I protein did not correlate with the expression patterns of RIG-I transcripts. When the ISG15 con...
متن کاملISG15 modification of filamin B negatively regulates the type I interferon-induced JNK signalling pathway.
Interferon (IFN)-induced signalling pathways have essential functions in innate immune responses. In response to type I IFNs, filamin B tethers RAC1 and a Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK)-specific mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) module--MEKK1, MKK4 and JNK--and thereby promotes the activation of JNK and JNK-mediated apoptosis. Here, we show that type I IFNs induce the conjugation of filamin ...
متن کاملBudding of Enveloped Viruses: Interferon-Induced ISG15—Antivirus Mechanisms Targeting the Release Process
Pathogenic strains of viruses that infect humans are encapsulated in membranes derived from the host cell in which they infect. After replication, these viruses are released by a budding process that requires cell/viral membrane scission. As such, this represents a natural target for innate immunity mechanisms to interdict enveloped virus spread and recent advances in this field will be the sub...
