Popis: RIG-I like receptors (RLR) are key cytoplasmic receptors to recognize viral RNA, and induce type I interferons via transcription factors such as IRF3 and NF-κB. Here we describe a novel signaling pathway involving PKCα, HDAC6 and β-catenin, which is essential for IRF3-mediated gene induction after virus infection. Stable knockdown of PKCα in various human cell lines inhibited Sendai virus-mediated IFN induction and enhanced virus replication. Sendai virus infection activated PKCα, which enhanced HDAC6 activity in a signal-dependent manner. HDAC6 physically interacted with PKCα and virus infection increased the deacetylation activity of HDAC6, which was absent in PKCα knockdown cells. HDAC6-mediated deacetylation of β-catenin enhanced its nuclear translocation and promoter binding, which was also attenuated in PKCα knockdown cells. We show that in the absence of PKCα/HDAC6-mediated β-catenin nuclear translocation, IRF3, although activated, does not bind to its promoter and is unable to support transcription.
