DEAD-Box Helicases: Sensors, Regulators, and Effectors for Antiviral Defense

Abstract: DEAD-box helicases are a large family of conserved RNA-binding proteins that belong to the broader group of cellular DExD/H helicases. Members of the DEAD-box helicase family have roles throughout cellular RNA metabolism from biogenesis to decay. Moreover, there is emerging evidence that cellular RNA helicases, including DEAD-box helicases, play roles in the recognition of foreign nucleic acids and the modulation of viral infection. As intracellular parasites, viruses must evade detection by innate immune sens… Show more

“…First we focused on the heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNPs), a large set of adaptor proteins, and dead-box helicases, which remodel RNA structural elements (Geuens et al, 2016;Jankowsky, 2011) . These RBP families have a wide array of cellular functions and are often recovered with host or pathogenic RNAs in binding studies (Geuens et al, 2016;Meier-Stephenson et al, 2018;Taschuk and Cherry, 2020) . The hnRNP class showed robust interaction with all 4 viruses and similar enrichments for the majority of the 20 proteins we identified ( Figure 4A ).…”

“…Interestingly, other DExD/H-box helicases, such as DDX17, DDX21, DDX6 or DDX56, are also emerging as important sentinels that influence viral sensing in multiple ways. These helicases have been shown to bind vRNAs, acting either as antiviral effectors or contributing to viral replication [ 41 ].…”

“…Whereas RNA helicases use ATP to modulate RNA structures/ functions, RNA chaperones perform those functions through binding to RNA targets without using ATP (Gilman et al, 2017;Linder and Jankowsky, 2011;Sharma and Jankowsky, 2014). Similar to cellular processes that depend on RNAs, (+)RNA viruses also require the involvement of RNA helicases and/or RNA chaperones to promote their replication and the infection process (Huang et al, 2010;Li and Nagy, 2011;Ranji and Boris-Lawrie, 2010;Taschuk and Cherry, 2020). The hosts also deploy cellular DEAD-box helicases, such as DICER, RIG-I or MDA5, which are involved in sensing the viral RNAs and initiating antiviral immune signaling or the RNAi pathway to destroy viruses (Ding, 2010;Garcia-Ruiz et al, 2010;Schroder, 2011;Taschuk and Cherry, 2020).…”
