Influenza virus non-structural protein 1 (NS1) counteracts host antiviral innate immune responses by inhibiting Retinoic acid inducible gene-I (RIG-I) activation. However, whether NS1 also specifically regulates RIG-I transcription is unknown. Here, we identify a CCAAT/Enhancer Binding Protein beta (C/EBPβ) binding site in the RIG-I promoter as a repressor element, and show that NS1 promotes C/EBPβ phosphorylation and its recruitment to the RIG-I promoter as a C/EBPβ/NS1 complex. C/EBPβ overexpression and siRNA knockdown in human lung epithelial cells resulted in suppression and activation of RIG-I expression respectively, implying a negative regulatory role of C/EBPβ. Further, C/EBPβ phosphorylation, its interaction with NS1 and occupancy at the RIG-I promoter was associated with RIG-I transcriptional inhibition. These findings provide an important insight into the molecular mechanism by which influenza NS1 commandeers RIG-I transcriptional regulation and suppresses host antiviral responses.

The picornavirus 3C protein plays a crucial role in viral infection. One of its functions is inhibiting the immune response by cleaving or degrading innate immune-related proteins to promote viral infection. Annexin A2 (ANXA2) is a multifunctional host protein that plays a key role in various cellular processes, it also participates in viral infection.

Heat shock cognate 70 (HSC70), a highly conserved molecular chaperone in the heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) family, plays an essential role in maintaining the homeostasis of the cellular environment. Furthermore, although previous studies have investigated potential function of HSC70 in innate antiviral immunity, further research is still required to fully elucidate its role. In this study, we cloned and characterized the HSC70 homolog gene from black carp (Mylopharyngodon piceus), which consists of 1950 nucleotides encoding 650 amino acids, migrates at approximately 71 kDa on SDS-PAGE, and is distributed in the cytoplasm.

The proteins encoded by Influenza A virus (IAV) evade the innate immune system through diverse strategies to facilitate their replication. However, the regulatory mechanisms remain not fully understood. In this study, we identified that the H9N2 PB1 protein suppressed the activities of the IFN-β, ISRE, and NF-κB promoters.
