The innate immune response is the first line of defense against invading pathogens. Virus infection rapidly activates the intracellular signaling pathways, resulting in antiviral and inflammatory responses. The inflammatory response is beneficial for the early protection against the virus infection; however, unregulated inflammation is harmful to the host. We report a cellular antiinflammatory mechanism that inhibits the virus-induced inflammatory gene expression. Using cellular and mouse models, we reveal IRF3, a critical component of innate antiviral immunity, inhibits the activity of NF-κB, the pro-inflammatory transcription factor. Mechanistically, IRF3 binds the NF-κB–p65 subunit and prevents its translocation to the nucleus. It appears, therefore, that we have uncovered a previously unknown function for IRF3 in regulating viral inflammation. Interferon (IFN) regulatory factor 3 (IRF3) is a transcription factor activated by phosphorylation in the cytoplasm of a virus-infected cell; by translocating to the nucleus, it induces transcription of IFN-β and other antiviral genes. We have previously reported IRF3 can also be activated, as a proapoptotic factor, by its linear polyubiquitination mediated by the RIG-I pathway. Both transcriptional and apoptotic functions of IRF3 contribute to its antiviral effect. Here, we report a nontranscriptional function of IRF3, namely, the repression of IRF3-mediated NF-κB activity (RIKA), which attenuated viral activation of NF-κB and the resultant inflammatory gene induction. In Irf3−/− mice, consequently, Sendai virus infection caused enhanced inflammation in the lungs. Mechanistically, RIKA was mediated by the direct binding of IRF3 to the p65 subunit of NF-κB in the cytoplasm, which prevented its nuclear import. A mutant IRF3 defective in both the transcriptional and the apoptotic activities was active in RIKA and inhibited virus replication. Our results demonstrated IRF3 deployed a three-pronged attack on virus replication and the accompanying inflammation.
