ABSTRACT The ability of viruses to control and/or evade the host antiviral response is critical to the establishment of a productive infection. We have previously shown that West Nile virus NY (WNV-NY) delays activation of interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF-3), a transcription factor critical to the initiation of the antiviral response. Here we demonstrate that the delayed activation of IRF-3 is essential for WNV-NY to achieve maximum virus production. Furthermore, WNV-NY utilizes a unique mechanism to control activation of IRF-3. In contrast to many other viruses that impose a nonspecific block to the IRF-3 pathway, WNV-NY eludes detection by the host cell at early times postinfection. To better understand this process, we assessed the role of the pathogen recognition receptor (PRR) retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I) in sensing WNV-NY infection. RIG-I null mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs) retained the ability to respond to WNV-NY infection; however, the onset of the host response was delayed compared to wild-type (WT) MEFs. This suggests that RIG-I is involved in initially sensing WNV-NY infection, while other PRRs sustain and/or amplify the host response later in infection. The delayed initiation of the host response correlated with an increase in WNV-NY replication in RIG-I null MEFs compared to WT MEFs. Our data suggest that activation of the host response by RIG-I early in infection is important for controlling replication of WNV-NY. Furthermore, pathogenic strains of WNV may have evolved to circumvent stimulation of the host response until after replication is well under way.

ABSTRACT Intracellular pathogen resistance 1 (Ipr1) has been found to be a mediator to integrate cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)–interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3), activated by intracellular pathogens, with the p53 pathway. Previous studies have shown the process of Ipr1 induction by various immune reactions, including intracellular bacterial and viral infections. The present study demonstrated that Ipr1 is regulated by the cGAS-IRF3 pathway during pathogenic infection. IRF3 was found to regulate Ipr1 expression by directly binding the interferon-stimulated response element motif of the Ipr1 promoter. Knockdown of Ipr1 decreased the expression of immunity-related GTPase family M member 1 (Irgm1), which plays critical roles in autophagy initiation. Irgm1 promoter characterization revealed a p53 motif in front of the transcription start site. P53 was found to participate in regulation of Irgm1 expression and IPR1-related effects on P53 stability by affecting interactions between ribosomal protein L11 (RPL11) and transformed mouse 3T3 cell double minute 2 (MDM2). Our results indicate that Ipr1 integrates cGAS-IRF3 with p53-modulated Irgm1 expression.
