RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs), retinoic acid inducible gene I (RIG-I) and melanoma differentiation-associated protein 5 (MDA5), are pattern recognition receptors through which cells initially sense pathogenic RNA and trigger interferon (IFN) signaling. Herein, we report that interferon induced protein 35 (IFI35) activates the ring finger protein 125 (RNF125)-UbcH5c-dependent degradation of RLRs and represses the recognition by RIG-I and MDA5 of viral RNA to inhibit innate immunity. Furthermore, IFI35 binds selectively to different subtypes of influenza A virus (IAV) nonstructural protein 1 (NS1) with asparagine residue[SUP]207[/SUP] (N[SUP]207[/SUP]). Functionally, the NS1(N[SUP]207[/SUP])-IFI35 interaction restores the activity of RLRs, and IAV with NS1(non-N[SUP]207[/SUP]) showed high pathogenicity in mice. Big data analysis showed that the 21st century pandemic IAV are almost all characterized by NS1 protein with non-N[SUP]207[/SUP]. Collectively, our data uncovered the mechanism of IFI35 restricting the activation of RLRs and provides a new drug target comprising the NS1 protein of different IAV subtypes.
