LY6E mediates an evolutionarily conserved enhancement of virus infection by targeting a late entry step

Abstract: Interferons (IFNs) contribute to cell-intrinsic antiviral immunity by inducing hundreds of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs). In a screen to identify antiviral ISGs, we unexpectedly found that LY6E, a member of the LY6/uPAR family, enhanced viral infection. Here, we show that viral enhancement by ectopically expressed LY6E extends to several cellular backgrounds and affects multiple RNA viruses. LY6E does not impair IFN antiviral activity or signaling, but rather promotes viral entry. Using influenza A virus … Show more

“…We validated that YFVΔSK/Nluc gene expression was neutralized by YFV-specific antibodies and was dependent on several known pathways of flavivirus entry, including clathrin-and dynamin-mediated endocytosis (10,30,(65)(66)(67), endosomal acidification (45,(66)(67)(68)(69), E protein-dependent fusion (31), and dependence on LY6E (32,33) and RPLP1 (34).…”

“…Furthermore, YFV-mediated Nluc expression was reduced by genetic ablation of LY6E ( Fig. 2H), a host factor that facilitates internalization of flaviviruses and other viruses (32,33), or by RNAi-mediated knockdown of RPLP1 ( Fig. 2I), a ribosomal protein required for efficient flavivirus translation (34).…”

“…LY6E is ubiquitously expressed in many cell types and functions in modulation of cell signal transduction (41). Recent studies revealed that human LY6E promotes the entry of HIV (46, 47) and multiple enveloped RNA viruses from several viral families (48). Moreover, the enhancement of RNA viral infection is a conserved function of all the mammalian LY6E orthologs examined thus far.…”

“…To further investigate the role of INPP5E in early HSV1 infection, we separately assessed cell attachment or internalization of virions using two parallel cold-binding assays (Fig. 5F, schema in top panel) that quantified virus particles via qPCR of HSV1 genomic DNA (gDNA) copies 54 . In the attachment assay, 6.8-and 4.3-fold more viral DNA was found associated with the surface-bound fraction in Inpp5e CRISPR#1 and Inpp5e CRISPR#2 vs. Inpp5e +/+ cells, respectively (Fig.…”
