(A) Luciferase activity of lysates in 293T/CypA- cells transfected for 24 hr with IFN-β-Luc and Flag-TRIM25, Flag-Smurf1, Flag-AIP4, Flag-RNF125, or Flag-RNF5, along with CypA or an empty vector and then treated with SeV for 6 hr. Results are presented relative to the luciferase activity in control cells transfected with luciferase reporter and empty vector. (B) Immunoblot analysis of lysates in 293T/CypA- cells transfected with various combinations of plasmids for 24 hr. (C) Immunoblot analysis of lysates in 293T/CypA- cells transfected with various combinations of plasmids for 24 hr, followed by immunoprecipitation with anti-MAVS antibody. (D) Immunoblot analysis of lysates in 293T/CypA- cells transfected with various combinations of plasmids for 24 hr, followed by immunoprecipitation with anti-Flag beads. (E) Immunoblot analysis of lysates in WT and Ppia−/− BMDMs infected with SeV for 6 hr, followed by immunoprecipitation with control mouse IgG or anti-MAVS antibodies. Lysates and immunoprecipitation extracts were probed with K48-Ub, MAVS and CypA antibodies. (F) Immunoblot analysis of lysates in 293T/CypA- cells transfected with various combinations of plasmids, followed by immunoprecipitation with anti-Flag beads. (G and H) Immunoblot analysis of lysates in 293T/CypA+ cells transfected for 24 hr with Flag-CypA (G) or Flag-TRIM25 (H), along with HA-tagged deletion constructs of MAVS, followed by immunoprecipitation with anti-Flag beads. (I) Immunoblot analysis of lysates in 293T/CypA+ cells transfected with HA-Ub, plus Myc-MAVS, Myc-MAVS KK-AA (K371A plus K420A), or the double point substitution construct Myc-MAVS KK-RR (K7R plus K10R), along with Flag-TRIM25 or an empty vector, followed by immunoprecipitation with anti-Myc beads. (J) Quantitative PCR analysis of IFNB1 mRNA in 293T/RIG-I−/− cells pretreated for 1 hr with BAY 11–7082 (5 μM) or DMSO, and then transfected for 48 hr with Flag-RIG-I, Flag-MAVS or an empty vector, along with scrambled siRNA or CypA siRNA (top). The phosphorylated IRF3 and p65 were detected by immunoblot (below). (K) Quantitative PCR analysis of SeV M mRNA in 293T/RIG-I−/− cells pretreated for 1 hr with BAY 11–7082 (5 μM) or DMSO, then transfected for 48 hr with Flag-RIG-I, Flag-MAVS or an empty vector, along with scrambled siRNA or CypA siRNA, and then infected with SeV for 6 hr. Results are presented relative to mRNA level of SeV M in control cells transfected with empty vector and infected with SeV. Data are shown as mean ± SD (n = 3). *p<0.05 and **p<0.01 (unpaired, two-tailed Student’s t-test). Data are representative of at least three independent experiments.
