The innate immune system is the first line of defense against bacterial and viral infections. The recognition of pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) by the RLRs, TLRs, and cGAS leads to the induction of type-I interferons (IFN-I) by activating the transcription factor IRF-3. Although the mechanism of IRF-3 activation has been extensively studied, the structural basis of IRF-3 activation upon phosphorylation remains not fully understood. Here, we determined the crystal structures of phosphorylated human and mouse IRF-3 bound to CBP (cAMP response element binding protein (CREB)-binding protein), which reveal that phosphorylated IRF-3 forms a dimer via pSer386 (pSer379 in mouse IRF-3) and a downstream pLxIS motif. Size-exclusion chromatography and cell-based studies show that mutations of key residues interacting with pSer386 severely impair IRF-3 activation and IFN-β induction. By contrast, phosphorylation of Ser396 within the pLxIS motif of human IRF-3 only plays a moderate role in IRF-3 activation. The mouse IRF-3/CBP complex structure reveals that the mechanism of mouse IRF-3 activation is similar but distinct from human IRF-3. These structural and functional studies reveal the detailed mechanism of IRF-3 activation upon phosphorylation.
