The IL-1β and type I interferon-β (IFN-β) molecules are important inflammatory cytokines elicited by the eukaryotic host as innate immune responses against invading pathogens and danger signals. Recently, a predominantly nuclear gamma-interferon-inducible protein 16 (IFI16) involved in transcriptional regulation has emerged as an innate DNA sensor which induced IL-1β and IFN-β production through inflammasome and STING activation, respectively. Herpesvirus (KSHV, EBV, and HSV-1) episomal dsDNA genome recognition by IFI16 leads to IFI16-ASC-procaspase-1 inflammasome association, cytoplasmic translocation and IL-1β production. Independent of ASC, HSV-1 genome recognition results in IFI16 interaction with STING in the cytoplasm to induce interferon-β production. However, the mechanisms of IFI16-inflammasome formation, cytoplasmic redistribution and STING activation are not known. Our studies here demonstrate that recognition of herpesvirus genomes in the nucleus by IFI16 leads into its interaction with histone acetyltransferase p300 and IFI16 acetylation resulting in IFI16-ASC interaction, inflammasome assembly, increased interaction with Ran-GTPase, cytoplasmic redistribution, caspase-1 activation, IL-1β production, and interaction with STING which results in IRF-3 phosphorylation, nuclear pIRF-3 localization and interferon-β production. ASC and STING knockdowns did not affect IFI16 acetylation indicating that this modification is upstream of inflammasome-assembly and STING-activation. Vaccinia virus replicating in the cytoplasm did not induce nuclear IFI16 acetylation and cytoplasmic translocation. IFI16 physically associates with KSHV and HSV-1 genomes as revealed by proximity ligation microscopy and chromatin-immunoprecipitation studies which is not hampered by the inhibition of acetylation, thus suggesting that acetylation of IFI16 is not required for its innate sensing of nuclear viral genomes. Collectively, these studies identify the increased nuclear acetylation of IFI16 as a dynamic essential post-genome recognition event in the nucleus that is common to the IFI16-mediated innate responses of inflammasome induction and IFN-β production during herpesvirus (KSHV, EBV, HSV-1) infections. Herpesviruses establish a latent infection in the nucleus of specific cells and reactivation results in the nuclear viral dsDNA replication and infectious virus production. Host innate responses are initiated by the presence of viral genomes and their products, and nucleus associated IFI16 protein has recently emerged as an innate DNA sensor regulating inflammatory cytokines and type I interferon (IFN) production. IFI16 recognizes the herpesvirus genomes (KSHV, EBV, and HSV-1) in the nucleus resulting in the formation of the IFI16-ASC-Caspase-1 inflammasome complex and IL-1β production. HSV-1 genome recognition by IFI16 in the nucleus also leads to STING activation in the cytoplasm and IFN-β production. However, how IFI16 initiates inflammasome assembly and activates STING in the cytoplasm after nuclear recognition of viral genome are not known. We show that herpesvirus genome recognition in the nucleus by IFI16 leads to interaction with histone acetyltransferase-p300 and IFI16 acetylation which is essential for inflammasome assembly in the nucleus and cytoplasmic translocation, activation of STING in the cytoplasm and IFN-β production. These studies provide insight into a common molecular mechanism for the innate inflammasome assembly and STING activation response pathways that result in IL-1β and IFN-β production, respectively.
