Characterizing Host microRNA: Virus Interactions of Orthoavulavirus javaense.
Post-transcriptional gene regulation mediated by microRNAs (miRNAs) relies on sequence complementarity between the miRNA seed site and the target gene transcript(s). This complementarity can completely inhibit or reduce translation into protein. We hypothesized that viruses employ sequence complementarity/similarity with host miRNAs to inhibit or increase the miRNA-mediated regulation of host gene expression specifically during viral infection(s). In this study, we focus on Orthoavulavirus javaense (OAVJ), the causative of Newcastle disease, a poultry disease with significant economic impact. A computational analysis of OAVJ genomes from low-virulence (lentogenic) versus virulent (velogenic) viruses was carried out to identify viral signature motifs that potentially either mimic or complement host miRNA seed sequences. Data show that OAVJ genomes harbor viral seed mimics (vSMs) or viral seed sponges (vSSs) and can mimic host miRNAs or inhibit their regulation of host genes, disrupting cellular pathways. Our analyses showed that velogens encode a statistically significant higher number of vSMs and a lower number of vSSs relative to lentogens. The number of vSMs or vSSs did not correlate with gene length. The analysis of the secondary structures flanking these vSMs and vSSs showed structural features common to miRNA precursors. The inhibition or upregulation of vSS-miR-27b-5p altered P gene expression in a sequence-dependent manner. These data demonstrate that viral transcripts can interact with host miRNAs to alter the outcomes of infection.
期刊介绍:
Viruses (ISSN 1999-4915) is an open access journal which provides an advanced forum for studies of viruses. It publishes reviews, regular research papers, communications, conference reports and short notes. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. We also encourage the publication of timely reviews and commentaries on topics of interest to the virology community and feature highlights from the virology literature in the ''News and Views'' section. Electronic files or software regarding the full details of the calculation and experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material.
