Coronavirus non-structural protein 14 (nsp14) is involved in viral RNA replication and modification and subverts host immune regulatory pathways to facilitate immune evasion. In this study, we demonstrated that BCoV nsp14 mediates TNF receptor-associated factor 3 (TRAF3) degradation through the coordinated targeting of the ubiquitin-proteasome and autophagy-lysosomal pathways, thereby potentiating viral replication. During autophagic degradation, nsp14 recruits and interacts with the E3 ubiquitin ligase STUB1 to ubiquitinate the TRAF3 protein. This ubiquitinated TRAF3 is then recognized and delivered via the cargo receptor Tollip for autophagic degradation. RNA interference-mediated knockdown of STUB1 or Tollip inhibited selective autophagic flux, increased the steady-state levels of TRAF3, and prevented nsp14-mediated TRAF3 degradation. Overall, we describe a new mechanism related to BCoV-mediated IFN-β suppression to promote viral replication and provided a rationale for developing therapies that target the nsp14-TRAF3 axis.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":23551,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary microbiology","volume":"310 ","pages":"Article 110708"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145020526","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Equine influenza virus (EIV) of the H3N8 subtype was mainly detected in heavy draft horse populations in Kumamoto Prefecture and the Tokachi area of Hokkaido. In total, 10 EIVs were isolated from infected horses and then were used for genetic and serological analyses. Phylogenetic analysis of all eight genes revealed that all Japanese isolates were clustered with the Florida sublineage clade 1 (Fc1) viruses and were closely related to North American Fc1 viruses detected in 2024–2025. The results suggest that the epidemic virus was introduced from North America to Japan. The high sequence identity across all eight genes in these Japanese isolates indicates that EIVs from a common origin spread in Kumamoto Prefecture and the Tokachi area of Hokkaido. These two places are separated by a straight-line distance of approximately 1500 km, but draft horses are regularly transported between the two places and infected horses may have moved before movement restrictions were imposed. The virus neutralization assay showed that the horse antisera against A/equine/South Africa/4/2003 (a Fc1 vaccine strain recommended by the World Organisation for Animal Health) and A/equine/Ibaraki/1/2007 (a Fc1 vaccine strain in Japan) cross-neutralized well with two viruses isolated in Kumamoto Prefecture and the Tokachi area of Hokkaido in 2025. This suggests that the current Fc1 vaccine strains are effective against the epidemic Fc1 isolates in Japan in 2025.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":23551,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary microbiology","volume":"310 ","pages":"Article 110701"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144933824","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
