Zinc finger antiviral protein (ZAP) inhibits PCV2 replication by targeting ORF1, ORF2 and ORF3 mRNA
Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the primary cause of post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) and other PCV-associated diseases (PCVAD). Here we report the antiviral properties of porcine ZAP long isoform (pZAPL), encoded by ZC3HAV1 gene, against PCV2, a single-stranded circular DNA virus. The expression of porcine ZAP responds to PCV2 infection in vivo and in vitro. Notably, the antiviral activity of pZAPL appears to be stronger than short isoform of pZAP (pZAPS). Further dual luciferase and RNA immunoprecipitation analyses showed that pZAPL targeted the ORF1, ORF2 and ORF3 mRNAs of PCV2. Overexpression of pZAPL could impact the mRNA stability of ORF1, ORF2, and ORF3. In summary, porcine ZAPL inhibits the replication of PCV2 by targeting the mRNA of ORF1, ORF2 and ORF3. The findings from this study further extend the understanding of the role of pZAP in porcine antiviral innate immunity.
期刊介绍:
Veterinary Microbiology is concerned with microbial (bacterial, fungal, viral) diseases of domesticated vertebrate animals (livestock, companion animals, fur-bearing animals, game, poultry, fish) that supply food, other useful products or companionship. In addition, Microbial diseases of wild animals living in captivity, or as members of the feral fauna will also be considered if the infections are of interest because of their interrelation with humans (zoonoses) and/or domestic animals. Studies of antimicrobial resistance are also included, provided that the results represent a substantial advance in knowledge. Authors are strongly encouraged to read - prior to submission - the Editorials (''Scope or cope'' and ''Scope or cope II'') published previously in the journal. The Editors reserve the right to suggest submission to another journal for those papers which they feel would be more appropriate for consideration by that journal.
Original research papers of high quality and novelty on aspects of control, host response, molecular biology, pathogenesis, prevention, and treatment of microbial diseases of animals are published. Papers dealing primarily with immunology, epidemiology, molecular biology and antiviral or microbial agents will only be considered if they demonstrate a clear impact on a disease. Papers focusing solely on diagnostic techniques (such as another PCR protocol or ELISA) will not be published - focus should be on a microorganism and not on a particular technique. Papers only reporting microbial sequences, transcriptomics data, or proteomics data will not be considered unless the results represent a substantial advance in knowledge.
Drug trial papers will be considered if they have general application or significance. Papers on the identification of microorganisms will also be considered, but detailed taxonomic studies do not fall within the scope of the journal. Case reports will not be published, unless they have general application or contain novel aspects. Papers of geographically limited interest, which repeat what had been established elsewhere will not be considered. The readership of the journal is global.
