Dengue virus NS5 protein plays multiple functions in the cytoplasm of infected cells, enabling viral RNA replication and counteracting host antiviral responses. Here, we demonstrate a novel function of NS5 in the nucleus where it interferes with cellular splicing. Using global proteomic analysis of infected cells together with functional studies, we found that NS5 binds spliceosome complexes and modulates endogenous splicing as well as minigene-derived alternative splicing patterns. In particular, we show that NS5 alone, or in the context of viral infection, interacts with core components of the U5 snRNP particle, CD2BP2 and DDX23, alters the inclusion/exclusion ratio of alternative splicing events, and changes mRNA isoform abundance of known antiviral factors. Interestingly, a genome wide transcriptome analysis, using recently developed bioinformatics tools, revealed an increase of intron retention upon dengue virus infection, and viral replication was improved by silencing specific U5 components. Different mechanistic studies indicate that binding of NS5 to the spliceosome reduces the efficiency of pre-mRNA processing, independently of NS5 enzymatic activities. We propose that NS5 binding to U5 snRNP proteins hijacks the splicing machinery resulting in a less restrictive environment for viral replication. Mapping host-pathogen interactions has proven fundamental for understanding how viruses manipulate host machinery and how cellular processes are regulated during infection. Dengue virus poses a major threat to public health: two-thirds of the world’s population is now at risk from infection by this mosquito-borne virus. In this work, using a global proteomic approach in the context of viral infections with tagged dengue viruses, we constructed a comprehensive protein-protein interaction map of the multifunctional NS5 viral protein. NS5 is central for viral RNA replication and for immune evasion. Our studies revealed the interaction of NS5 with core components of the splicing machinery, specifically with proteins of the U5 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particle, and that viral infection reduces splicing efficiency. Mechanistic studies analyzing endogenous splicing events and in vitro splicing assays indicated that NS5 binds active spliceosomes and reduces the efficiency of pre-mRNA processing. Our results provide a new function of the dengue virus NS5 protein and support a model in which manipulation of specific splicing components favors viral infection.
