This dimer foreign material. In response, they release interferons (IFNs) and further assembles into high-order oligomers (24) that cleave viral activate a ubiquitously expressed pseudokinase/endoribonuclease RNAs (16, 18) and all components of the translation apparatus, RNase L. RNase L executes regulated RNA decay and halts global including mRNAs (25), tRNAs (26), and 28S/18S rRNAs (27, translation. Here, we developed a biosensor for 2′,5′-oligoadeny- 28).

Inhibition of protein synthesis arises in part from activation of the dsRNA-dependent protein kinase R (PKR) and Significance in part from signaling by conserved small RNAs that contain 2′,5′-linked oligoadenylates (2-5A) (1–4).

However, by engineering a biosensor for the RNase L which function as cytosolic dsRNA sensors using dsRNA binding pathway, we show that RNase L activation actually precedes for activation (6, 7). The activity of the OASs is normally low to IFN synthesis. Furthermore, translation of IFN evades the action allow for housekeeping protein synthesis, but it increases in the of RNase L.

Thanks to new genetic association studies additional risk factors are now being discovered. Using data from a recent genome- wide associations from the Genetics of Mortality in Critical Care (GenOMICC) consortium, we show that a haplotype at a region associated with requiring intensive care is inherited from Neandertals. It encodes proteins that activate enzymes that are important during infections with RNA viruses. As compared to the previously described Neandertal risk haplotype, this Neandertal haplotype is protective against severe COVID-19, is of more moderate effect, and is found at substantial frequencies in all regions of the world outside Africa. 1 bioRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.10.05.327197; this version posted October 9, 2020.

  • Cancer Upregulated Gene 2, a Novel Oncogene, Confers Resistance to Oncolytic Vesicular Stomatitis Virus Through STAT1-OASL2 Signaling
    Cancer Gene Therapy (2013) 20, 125–132 & 2013 Nature America, Inc. All rights reserved 0929-1903/13 www.nature.com/cgt ORIGINAL ARTICLE Cancer upregulated gene 2, a novel oncogene, confers resistance to oncolytic vesicular stomatitis virus through STAT1-OASL2 signaling W Malilas1, SS Koh2, R Srisuttee1, W Boonying1, I-R Cho1, C-S Jeong3, RN Johnston4 and Y-H Chung1 We have recently found a novel oncogene, named cancer upregulated gene 2 (CUG2), which activates Ras and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), including ERK, JNK and p38 MAPK. Because activation of these signaling pathways has previously been shown to enhance cancer cell susceptibility to oncolysis by certain viruses, we examined whether vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) could function as a potential therapeutic agent by efficiently inducing cytolysis in cells transformed by CUG2. Unexpectedly, NIH3T3 cells stably expressing CUG2 (NIH-CUG2) were resistant to VSV because of the activation of signal transducers and activators of transcription 1 (STAT1). The result was supported by evidence showing that suppression of STAT1 with short interference RNA (siRNA) renders cells susceptible to VSV. Furthermore, 20–50 oligoadenylate synthetase-like (OASL) 2 was the most affected by STAT1 expression level among anti-viral proteins and furthermore suppression of OASL2 mRNA level caused NIH-CUG2 cells to succumb to VSV as seen in NIH-CUG2 cells treated with STAT1 siRNA. In addition, Colon26L5 carcinoma cells stably expressing CUG2 (Colon26L5-CUG2) exhibited resistance to VSV, whereas Colon26L5 stably expressing a control vector yielded to VSV infection. Moreover, Colon26L5-CUG2 cells stably suppressing STAT1 succumbed to VSV infection, resulting in apoptosis.

This antibody cross-reacts with an unidentified protein of 100 kDa in some cell lines. Species Reactivity: Human Source / Purification Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Asp90 of human OAS1 protien. Background 2’-5’-oligoadenylate synthetase 1 (OAS1) is an antiviral protein induced by type 1 interferon that plays a key role in the cellular innate immune response (1). The OAS family of proteins includes OAS1, OAS2, OAS3, and OASL in humans (2). The OAS1 enzyme produces the second messenger 2’-5’-linked oligoadenylate in response to cytosolic dsRNA. These 2’-5’-linked oligoadenylates bind to the ribonuclease RNase L, which then degrades viral and cellular RNA (3). Research studies indicate that the OAS1 system inhibits protein synthesis and induces apoptosis in virally infected cells, which limits viral infection (4).

  • Oass in Defense of Mycobacterial Infection: Angels Or Demons?
    OASs in Mycobacterial Infection Zhang et al. Curr. Issues Mol. Biol. (2021) 40: 221-230. caister.com/cimb OASs in Defense of Mycobacterial Infection: Angels or Demons? Weipan Zhang, Xiaojian Cao, Gang Cao and Xi Chen* State Key laboratory of Agricultural Microbiology, College of Veterinary Medicine, Huazhong Agricultural University, Wuhan 430070, P. R. China *Corresponding author: [email protected] DOI: https://doi.org/10.21775/cimb.040.221 Abstract The interaction between pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) and pathogen- associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) induces type I interferon (IFN) responses. IFNs stimulates hundreds of genes to exert its biological effects. OASs are the members of IFN-stimulate genes (ISGs). Among them, OAS1 activates RNase L to cleave RNA viruses genome, OAS2 activates downstream immune signaling pathways of IFNs, OAS3 induces RNase L to cut the genome of RNA virus and activate IFN I response to enhance the immune effect, and OASL inhibits the survival of RNA viruses by activating RIG-I signaling pathway but promotes the reproduction of DNA viruses by inhibiting the cGAS signaling pathway. However, the role of OASs in mycobacterial infection remains incomprehensible. In this review, we summarized the latest literature regarding the roles of OASs in mycobacterial infection. Introduction Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis) is an obligate intracellular pathogen, which is capable of maintaining long-term persistence in host by modulating its innate and adaptive immune response (Toledo Pinto et al., 2018). The mechanisms by which host immune response restricts M. tuberculosis replication and transmission are still unknown. M. tuberculosis invades and induces large amounts of cytokines secretion by macrophage such as interferon (IFN), IL-1β and TNFα (Leisching et al., 2017b).
