ABSTRACT
Alterations in cell cycle regulation contribute to Zika virus (ZIKV)-associated pathogenesis and may have implications for the development of therapeutic avenues. As a matter of fact, ZIKV alters cell cycle progression at multiple stages, including G1, S, G2, and M phases. During a cell cycle, the progression of mitosis is particularly controlled to avoid any abnormalities in cell division. In this regard, the critical metaphase-anaphase transition is triggered by the activation of anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) by its E3 ubiquitin ligase subunit Cdc20. Cdc20 recognizes substrates by interacting with a destruction box motif (D-box). Recently, the ZIKV nonstructural protein 5 (NS5), one of the most highly conserved flavivirus proteins, has been shown to localize to the centrosome in each pole and to spindle fibers during mitosis. Inducible expression of NS5 reveals an interaction of this viral factor with centrosomal proteins leading to an increase in the time required to complete mitosis. By analyzing the NS5 sequence, we discovered the presence of a D-box. Taken together, these data support the idea that, in addition to its role in viral replication, NS5 plays a critical role in the control of the cell cycle of infected cells and, more specifically, in the regulation of the mitotic spindle. Here we propose that the NS5 protein may interfere with the metaphase-anaphase progression, and thus cause the observed delay in mitosis via the regulation of APC/C.
