microRNA(miRNAs)通常通过miRNAs的5′“种子”区和mRNA的3′非翻译区(3′UTR)之间有限的碱基配对相互作用来下调靶mRNA的蛋白质表达。与这种既定的作用模式相反,肝脏特异性人miR-122在丙型肝炎病毒(HCV)5′UTR内的两个位点结合,导致感染性病毒体的产生增加。我们发现两个拷贝的miR-122与HCV 5′UTR在病毒转录本5′端附近的部分重叠位置相互作用,形成稳定的三元复合物。两个miR-122结合位点都涉及种子序列外的广泛碱基配对;然而,它们具有显著不同的相互作用亲和力。结构探测揭示了HCV 5′UTR与miR-122相互作用时发生的结构变化。然而,与以前的报道相反,使用重组胞质核酸外切酶Xrn 1和肝细胞提取物的结果表明,miR-122介导的HCV RNA降解保护与体内病毒繁殖的刺激无关。因此,miR-122:HCV三元复合物可能在病毒生命周期的其他关键步骤中发挥作用。
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) typically downregulate protein expression from target mRNAs through limited base-pairing interactions between the 5′ ‘seed’ region of the miRNA and the mRNA 3′ untranslated region (3′UTR). In contrast to this established mode of action, the liver-specific human miR-122 binds at two sites within the hepatitis C viral (HCV) 5′UTR, leading to increased production of infectious virions. We show here that two copies of miR-122 interact with the HCV 5′UTR at partially overlapping positions near the 5′ end of the viral transcript to form a stable ternary complex. Both miR-122 binding sites involve extensive base pairing outside of the seed sequence; yet, they have substantially different interaction affinities. Structural probing reveals changes in the architecture of the HCV 5′UTR that occur on interaction with miR-122. In contrast to previous reports, however, results using both the recombinant cytoplasmic exonuclease Xrn1 and liver cell extracts show that miR-122-mediated protection of the HCV RNA from degradation does not correlate with stimulation of viral propagation in vivo. Thus, the miR-122:HCV ternary complex likely functions at other steps critical to the viral life cycle.
