英文摘要
Influenza and other emerging viruses represent major health concerns worldwide, and current strategies for
prevention or treatment of disease are insufficient. Type I interferon is a cytokine that induces an antiviral state
in cells by transcriptionally upregulating hundreds of genes. Some of these genes encode proteins with direct
antiviral activity, though only a small number of these proteins have been mechanistically characterized.
Among these proteins, the interferon-inducible transmembrane protein 3 (IFITM3) has been recently shown by
us and others to have broad antiviral activity against all subtypes of influenza virus tested as well as a number
of other virus families. Furthermore, this protein is unique among interferon effectors in that it appears to act
by preventing entry or fusion of viruses rather than inhibiting viral replication. Using chemical reporters, we
have shown that IFITM3 is post-translationally palmitoylated and this lipid modification regulates its antiviral
activity. Furthermore, our preliminary data indicate that IFITM3 is also ubiquitinated. The overall goal of the
proposed research is to increase understanding of innate antiviral immunity by characterizing the mechanism
of action of IFITM3 and its cellular regulation by post-translational modifications. In the K99 phase, we will
develop biochemical and microscopy assays to test the hypothesis that palmitoylation controls proper
trafficking of IFITM3 allowing it to interact with viral particles and prevent viral entry. With this knowledge in
hand we will then seek in the R00 phase to identify enzymes responsible for IFITM3 palmitoylation and look at
the global transcriptional regulation of palmitoylating enzymes during viral infections. Furthermore, we will
apply assays developed in the K99 phase to understand the role of ubiquitination in IFITM3 biology and its
interplay with palmitoylation. Analyzing the mechanism of action of IFITM3 and the control of this activity by a
unique set of post-translational modifications may provide insights necessary for harnessing the power of type I
interferon for combating viral pathogens.
