Tetherin is an anti-viral factor that restricts viral budding through tethering virions to the cell surface. The human parainfluenza virus type 2 (hPIV-2) V protein decreases cell surface tetherin in HeLa cells, which constitutively express endogenous tetherin. However, the role of the hPIV-2 V protein in tetherin induction remains unclear. Here, we examined whether hPIV-2 infection itself induces tetherin in HEK293 cells that have no basal expression of tetherin. Unlike influenza A virus (IAV) infection, hPIV-2 infection induced neither tetherin mRNA nor protein expression. In contrast, robust tetherin induction was observed by infection of rPIV-2s carrying V mutants, in which either three Trp residues (W178H/W182E/W192A) or Cys residues (C209/211/214A) that are important for decreasing cell surface tetherin are mutated. hPIV-2 infection also inhibited the induction of tetherin expression by IFN-α and IAV infection. Furthermore, hPIV-2 V protein but not P and VW178H/W182E/W192Asuppressed tetherin induction. Our data collectively suggest that the hPIV-2 V protein inhibits tetherin expression induced by several external stimuli.
