ABSTRACT
TAK1-binding protein 1 (TAB1) forms the protein complex with TAK1 and enhances its kinase activity in human and mammals. To elucidate the role of TAB1 in the innate immunity of teleost sï¬h, the TAB1 homologue of black carp (Mylopharyngodon piceus) (bcTAB1) has been cloned and characterized in this paper. bcTAB1 is composed of 498 amino acids and contains a typical PP2Cc domain like its mammalian counterpart. The transcription of bcTAB1 gene in vivo and ex vivo varied in response to different stimuli; and the immunoï¬uorescence staining showed that bcTAB1 was distributed in both cytoplasm and nucleus of host cell. The reporter assay showed that neither bcTAB1-expression alone nor co-expression of bcTAB1 and bcTAK1 could activate the transcription of IFN in EPC cells. Accordingly, EPC cells expressing bcTAB1 or co-expressing bcTAB1 and bcTAK1 showed no improved antiviral activity against grass carp reovirus (GCRV) and spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV). However, EPC cells co-expressing bcTAB1, bcTAK1 and bcIRF7 showed fiercely increased IFN-inducing ability in reporter assay and obviously improved antiviral activity in plaque assay compared with EPC cells co-expressing bcTAK1 and bcIRF7. The subsequent co-immunoprecipitation assay identified that bcTAB1 associated with bcTAK1 but not interacted with bcIRF7. Based on our previous finding that bcTAK1 up-regulates bcIRF7-mediated IFN signaling during host innate immune activation, the data generated in this study support the conclusion that bcTAB1 interacts with bcTAK1 and boosts bcTAK1-activated bcIRF7/IFN signaling during host antiviral innate immune response against GCRV and SVCV.
