Pivotal role for NSUN2 in the induction of type I interferon and antiviral response in vivo. (a) Immunoblot analysis in BMDCs from Nsun2+/+ mice or Nsun2+/− mice with infection by SeV for 0, 4, and 8 h. (b) qPCR analysis of Nsun2 or Irf3 mRNA in BMDCs from Nsun2+/+ mice or Nsun2+/− mice. (c) qPCR analysis of Ifnb1 mRNA in BMDCs from Nsun2+/+ mice or Nsun2+/− mice, with or without infection by SeV for 8 and 12 h, HSV-1 for 3 and 6 h, or VSV for 6 and 12 h. (d) qPCR analysis of Isg15 and Cxcl10 in BMDCs from Nsun2+/+ mice or Nsun2+/− mice, with or without infection by SeV, HSV-1, or VSV. (e) qPCR analysis of SeV-P, VSV-G or HSV-1-UL-30 RNA in BMDCs from Nsun2+/+ mice or Nsun2+/− mice, with infection by SeV, VSV or HSV-1 for 12 h. (f) RNA-seq analysis from SeV-infected BMDCs from Nsun2+/+ mice or Nsun2+/− mice. The heatmap shows the expression levels of ISGs and several signalling molecules. The genes that we focus on are labelled with asterisks. (g) The m5C-RIP-qPCR analysis of the m5C methylated mRNA levels immunoprecipitated by m5C antibody from BMDCs from Nsun2+/+ mice or Nsun2+/− mice. (h) Stability analysis of Irf3 mRNA in BMDCs from Nsun2+/+ mice or Nsun2+/− mice, with treatment of actinomycin D (ActD) for 0, 4, and 8 h. (i) qPCR analysis of Ifnb1 mRNA and the corresponding VSV-G RNA in different organs from Nsun2+/+ mice (n = 5) or Nsun2+/− mice (n = 5), injected intraperitoneally for 16 h with VSV (4 × 107 PFU per mouse).
