ABSTRACT
NOD-like receptor (NLR) family member X1 (NLRX1) of human localizes on mitochondria and serves as a negative regulator of antiviral signaling. However, the function of NLRX1 in teleost fish still remains elusive. To explore its role in the innate immunity of teleost fish, NLRX1 homologue has been cloned and characterized from black carp (Mylopharyngodon piceus). Black carp NLRX1 (bcNLRX1) consists of 1008 amino acids, which includes a N-terminal mitochondrial targeting sequence, a central NACHT domain and a C-terminal leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domain. bcNLRX1 was identified as a cytosolic protein locating on mitochondria through immunofluorescence (IF) staining. The overlapped subcellular distribution of bcNLRX1 and black carp MAVS (bcMAVS) was detected in IF staining, and the direct interaction between these two molecules in vitro was identified through co-immunoprecipitation assay. When co-expressed with bcMAVS, bcNLRX1 fiercely reduced bcMAVS-mediated IFN induction in reporter assay. Accordingly, the antiviral activity of bcMAVS against both grass carp reovirus (GCRV) and spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) was forcefully repressed by bcNLRX1 in plaque assay. Mutagenic analyses further revealed that the NACHT domain of bcNLRX1 was essential for it to interact with bcMAVS and to suppress bcMAVS-mediated antiviral signaling. Taken together, our data support the conclusion that bcNLRX1 negatively regulates bcMAVS-mediated antiviral signaling through its NACHT domain during host innate immune activation.
