Upon recognition of intracytoplasmic viral RNA, activated RIG-I is recruited to the mitochondrion-located adaptor protein VISA (also known as MAVS, CARDIF, and IPS-1). VISA then acts as a central signaling platform for linking RIG-I and downstream signaling components, such as TRAF2, 5, and 6, TBK1, and IKK, leading to activation of the kinases TBK1 and IKK. These activated kinases further phosphorylate the transcription factors IRF3/7 and NF-κB, leading to the induction of downstream antiviral genes. Here, we report a mitochondrial isoform, deoxyuridine triphosphate nucleotidohydrolase (dUTPase), DUT-M, as a positive regulator in RLR-VISA-mediated antiviral signaling. DUT-M interacts with VISA and RIG-I to facilitate the assembly of the VISA-TRAF2 complex and to augment the polyubiquitination of TRAF2, leading to potentiated activation of IRF3 dimerization and phosphorylation of P65, and enhanced VISA-mediated innate immune response. RLR-VISA-mediated IRF3 dimerization and P65 phosphorylation, were inhibited in DUT-knockdown and DUT-deficient 293 cells. Thus, DUT-M is a positive regulator of the RIG-I-VISA-mediated innate immune response to RNA viruses.
