Popis: Retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I) plays a critical role in the recognition of intracytoplasmic viral RNA. Upon binding to the RNA of invading viruses, the activated RIG-I translocates to mitochondria, where it recruits adapter protein MAVS, causing a series of signaling cascades. In this study, we demonstrated that Hsp70 binding protein 1 (HSPBP1) promotes RIG-I-mediated signal transduction. The overexpression of HSPBP1 can increase the stability of RIG-I protein by inhibiting its K48-linked ubiquitination, and promote the activation of IRF3 and the production of IFN-β induced by Sendai virus. Knockdown and knockout of HSPBP1 leads to down-regulation of virus-induced RIG-I expression, inhibits IRF3 activation, and reduces the production of IFNB1. These results indicate that HSPBP1 positively regulates the antiviral signal pathway induced by inhibiting the K48-linked ubiquitination of RIG-I.
