metabolism | the enzyme significantly inhibits imiquimod-induced cytokine production through suppressing the activation of transcription factors IRF-3, NF-kappaB and AP-1. Western blot analysis with anti-Lys48 and anti-Lys63 ubiquitin antibodies indicates the SARS-CoV PLPro removes Lys63-linked ubiquitin chains of TRAF3 and TRAF6, but not Lys48-linked ubiquitin chains in un-treated and treated cells. The decrease in the activated state of TRAF3 and TRAF6 correlates with the inactivation of TBK1 in response to imiquimod by papain-like protease (PLPro). The results reveal that the antagonism of SARS-CoV PLPro on TLR7-mediated innate immunity is associated with the negative regulation of TRAF3/6-TBK1-IRF3/NF-kappaB/AP1 signals | Severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus |
