Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) causes severe acute lower respiratory tract disease. Retinoic acid-inducible gene-I (RIG-I) serves as an innate immune sensor and triggers antiviral responses upon recognizing viral infections including RSV. Since tripartite motif-containing protein 25 (TRIM25)-mediated K63-polyubiquitination is crucial for RIG-I activation, several viruses target initial RIG-I activation through ubiquitination. RSV NS1 and NS2 have been shown to interfere with RIG-I-mediated antiviral signaling. In this study, we explored the possibility that NS1 suppresses RIG-I-mediated antiviral signaling by targeting TRIM25. Ubiquitination of ectopically expressed RIG-I-2Cards domain was decreased by RSV infection, indicating that RSV possesses ability to inhibit TRIM25-mediated RIG-I ubiquitination. Similarly, ectopic expression of NS1 sufficiently suppressed TRIM25-mediated RIG-I ubiquitination. Furthermore, interaction between NS1 and TRIM25 was detected by a co-immunoprecipitation assay. Further biochemical assays showed that the SPRY domain of TRIM25, which is responsible for interaction with RIG-I, interacted sufficiently with NS1. Suppression of RIG-I ubiquitination by NS1 resulted in decreased interaction between RIG-I and its downstream molecule, MAVS. The suppressive effect of NS1 on RIG-I signaling could be abrogated by overexpression of TRIM25. Collectively, this study suggests that RSV NS1 interacts with TRIM25 and interferes with RIG-I ubiquitination to suppress type-I interferon signaling.

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) belongs to the family Pneumoviridae and contains a negative-sense single-stranded RNA genome. RSV infection is a leading cause of severe acute lower respiratory tract disease and related hospitalization in children and the elderly [1, 2] . Despite the global burden from RSV infection, there are no available RSV-specific vaccines or effective therapeutic agents at present.

The cellular innate immune system utilizes various sensors including Retinoic acid inducible gene-I (RIG-I) and Toll-like receptors (TLRs) to detect viral infection and activate antiviral immune signaling pathways [3, 4] . Among these, RIG-I and Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) have been implicated in early antiviral immune responses against RSV infection in airway epithelial cells [5] . Deficiency 

Cells were collected and lysed in Triton X-100 cell lysis buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, 150 mM NaCl, 5mM EDTA, 0.1% Triton X-100) containing protease and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). Lysates were incubated overnight at 4 • C with the corresponding antibody. After the binding reaction, protein A/G resin (Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA) were added to samples and further incubated for 2 h at room temperature. The resin was then washed four to five times with cell lysis buffer. Anti-FLAG antibody conjugated resin (Sigma) and anti-V5 antibody conjugated resin (Sigma) were also used for Co-IP in a similar manner. Precipitated proteins were eluted with SDS sample buffer (250 mM Tris-HCl, 10% SDS, 30% glycerol, 25% mercaptoethanol, 0.05% bromophenol blue) and subjected to SDS-PAGE and immunoblotting.

To precipitate GST-tagged fusion proteins, the cell lysates were incubated with glutathioneconjugated beads (Sigma) at RT for 1-2 h. After incubation, the beads were washed four to five times with cell lysis buffer, followed by SDS-PAGE and immunoblotting.

After polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, target proteins on the gel were transferred to a PVDF membrane (Millipore, St. Charles, MO, USA). The membrane was incubated overnight at 4 • C with the indicated antibody in 5% bovine serum albumin (BSA, RMBio, Missoula, MT, USA) solution for binding. After extensive washing with PBST, the membrane was then incubated with the horseradish peroxidase (HRP) conjugated secondary antibody at RT for 2 h. Luminata Forte (Millipore) was used as the HRP substrate. Anti-V5 rabbit antibody (Cell signaling, Denvers, MA, USA, #13202), anti-V5 mouse antibody (E-bioscience, San Diego, CA, USA, #14-6796-80), anti-HA mouse antibody (SantaCruz, Santa Cruz, CA, USA, #sc-7392), anti-FLAG mouse antibody (Sigma, #F7425), anti-ubiquitin (P4D1) mouse antibody (Cell signaling, #3936), anti-GST antibody (Abcam, Cambridge, UK, #19256) and HRP conjugated antibodies (Cell signaling, #7074, #7076) were used.

HEK293T cells in 24-well plates were transfected with Interferon-β firefly luciferase (0.25 µg/well) and thymidine kinase (TK) renilla reporter plasmids (0.13 µg/well) were transfected along with other constructs as indicated [21] . After 24 h, transfected HEK293T cells were lysed in passive lysis buffer (Promega, Madison, WI, USA) at RT for 15 min. Cell lysates were then analyzed by a dual-luciferase assay according to the instruction (Promega). All assays were performed in triplicate and repeated at least three times.

Total RNAs were extracted using TRIzol (Thermo Scientific, #15596018) according to the instruction. cDNAs were generated from RNAs (1 µg) using Superscript III reverse transcriptase (Thermo Scientific, #18080093) and oligo 20 (dT) primers. Real-time PCR was conducted using synthesized cDNA (2 µL). The mRNA levels of interferon-β and interferon-stimulated gene 15 (ISG15) were determined using the following primers and normalized to those of β-actin: interferon-β-forward; 5 -AAGAGTTACACTGCCTTTGCCATC-3 , interferon-β-reverse; 5 -CACTGTCTGCTGGTGGAGTTCATC-3 , ISG15-forward; 5 -CCTCTGAGCATCCTGGT-3 , ISG15-reverse; 5 -AGGCCGTACTCCCCCAG-3 , β-actin-forward; 5 -TGGAATCCTGTGGCATCCATGAAAC-3 , β-actin-reverse; 5 -TAAAACGCAGCTCAGTAACAGTCCG-3 .

HEK293T cells were seeded onto fibronectin coated coverslips in a 24-well plate. After 24 h, cells were transfected with FLAG-tagged RSV NS1 and V5-tagged TRIM25 and incubated for 24 h. Then, cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde followed by blocking and permeabilization in Viruses 2018, 10, 716 4 of 12 permeabilization buffer (0.5% BSA, 0.2% triton X-100 in PBS) at RT in 5 min. The cells were incubated with anti-FLAG mouse and anti-V5 rabbit antibodies in 0.5% BSA solution at 4 • C overnight. Next day, the cells were extensively washed and incubated with FITC-and PE-labeled secondary antibodies at RT for 2 h. The co-localization between RSV NS1-FLAG and TRIM25-V5 was analyzed by Nanoscope K1-Fluo confocal microscope.

Data were presented as the mean ± SEM. Statistical comparisons between the control and treated groups were performed using the Student's t-test. A value of p ≤ 0.05 was considered to be significant.

To confirm the suppression of RIG-I-mediated signaling by NS1, RSV NS1 was transfected along with constitutively active RIG-I-2CARDs (RIG-IN). Ectopically expressed NS1 inhibited interferon-β promoter activity that was induced by RIG-IN as determined by the luciferase assays in HEK293T cells, confirming that NS1 itself is capable of inhibiting RIG-I-mediated antiviral signaling ( Figure 1A ). Consistently, RIG-IN-mediated induction of interferon-β and ISG15 mRNA synthesis was significantly hampered by ectopic expression of NS1 ( Figure 1B ). Similar results were obtained from experimental settings using A549 and HEp-2 cells, suggesting that NS1 is able to suppress RIG-I-mediated type-I interferon production in various cells including airway epithelial cells ( Figure 1C ,D). incubated with anti-FLAG mouse and anti-V5 rabbit antibodies in 0.5% BSA solution at 4·°C overnight.

Because TRIM25-mediated RIG-I CARD ubiquitination is an essential step for the successful induction of RIG-I-mediated antiviral responses, we explored the possibility that RSV suppresses RIG-I activation by inhibiting the TRIM25-mediated RIG-ubiquitination. First, we have tested whether RIG-I ubiquitination is suppressed by RSV infection. As seen in Figure 2A , ubiquitination of ectopically expressed GST-RIG-IN is decreased by the presence of RSV (multiplicity of infection = 4), suggesting that RSV is capable of suppressing RIG-I ubiquitination to modulate RIG-I signaling. Next, we have tested whether RIG-I ubiquitination is affected by the presence of NS1. As shown in Figure 2B , both NS1 and NS2 suppressed the TRIM25-mediated ubiquitination of RIG-IN. Increasing amounts of NS1 resulted in an augmented effect on reducing the ubiquitinated form of RIG-IN ( Figure 2C ). The results clearly showed that NS1 is capable of interfering with TRIM25-mediated RIG-I ubiquitination to suppress RIG-I-mediated interferon production. were repeated at least three times. The results show the most representative data from a single experiment conducted in triplicate.

Interaction between RIG-IN and NS1 was examined using a GST-pulldown assay to test whether NS1 interacts with RIG-IN similar to NS2. However, we could not detect any interaction (Data not shown). Therefore, interaction between TRIM25 and NS1 was investigated to determine whether NS1 targets TRIM25 to suppress RIG-I ubiquitination. Obvious interaction between ectopically expressed Viruses 2018, 10, 716 6 of 12 TRIM25 and NS1 was detected by the co-immunoprecipitation assay, whereas interaction between NS2 and TRIM25 was not detected ( Figure 3A) . Furthermore, endogenous TRIM25 was also co-precipitated with NS1, supporting that RSV NS1 targets TRIM25 ( Figure 3B ). Co-localization of NS1 and TRIM25 in the cytoplasm was detected by confocal microscopic observation ( Figure 3C ). To further dissect the interaction between NS1 and TRIM25, we determined the domain of TRIM25 that is responsible for this interaction using truncated TRIM25 domains. FLAG-tagged NS1 was expressed along with the RING domain, B-Box/CCD domain, or SPRY domain of TRIM25 and co-immunoprecipitation assays were performed. As depicted in Figure 3D , the SPRY domain sufficiently interacts with NS1, whereas the RING or B-Box/CCD domains do not show any interaction. In addition, the SPRY deleted TRIM25 mutant failed to interact with NS1, indicating that the SPRY domain is required for interaction with NS1 ( Figure 3E ). Figure 4A , Figure 4A ). To further confirm the effect of NS1 on RIG-I activation, the effect of NS1 ectopic expression on RIG-IN interaction with MAVS was examined. FLAG-tagged MAVS-CARD-PRD and GST-tagged RIG-IN was co-expressed with increasing amounts of V5-tagged NS1 followed by a co-immunoprecipitation assay using an anti-FLAG antibody. As seen in Figure 4B ,C, the clear interaction between RIG-IN and MAVS-CARD-PRD was decreased by NS1 expression in a dose-dependent manner. These results suggest that RSV NS1 expression diminishes the interaction between RIG-I and MAVS by interfering with TRIM25-mediated RIG-I ubiquitination. Since TRIM25 oligomerization is crucial for its E3-ligase activity, it has been tested whether NS1 suppresses TRIM25 E3-ligase activity by interfering the oligomerization. As seen in Figure 4D , expression of NS1 did not affect the interaction between Interaction between HA-TRIM25 and V5-TRIM25 was analyzed by co-IP and immunoblotting using indicated antibodies. All experiments were conducted at least three times with similar results.

To confirm that interaction between NS1 and TRIM25 contributes to the interferon-suppressive effect of NS1, the effect of TRIM25 overexpression on the suppression of RIG-I signaling by NS1 was investigated using interferon-β luciferase promoter assays. As shown in Figure 5A , activation of interferon-β promoter activity by polyI:C transfection was suppressed by NS1 expression. The effect of NS1 was abrogated by the overexpression of TRIM25 ( Figure 5A) . Similarly, suppression of RIG-IN-induced interferon-β promoter activity by NS1 was also reversed by the ectopic expression of TRIM25 ( Figure 5B ). These results indicate that NS1 interaction with TRIM25 contributes to its RIG-I suppressive activity.

Many viruses possess defensive mechanisms against the host immune system for their effective replication. The NS1 and NS2 proteins of RSV have been shown to effectively inhibit the host immune system. NS proteins target diverse proteins related to type-I interferon induction and signal transduction. For example, RSV NS1 upregulates SOCS1 and SOCS3 and triggers STAT2 degradation [12] . RSV NS1 also inhibits the interferon alpha response by targeting the interferon alpha receptor [13] . NS2 also degrades STAT2 to downregulate interferon-mediated JAK-STAT signaling responses [14] . In addition, NS1 and NS2 exert suppressive activities on the RIG-I-mediated antiviral signaling pathway, which is a crucial response against RSV infection. Previous studies suggest that NS1 and NS2 inhibit RIG-I-mediated signaling by inducing degradation of key molecules such as IRF3/7 [21, 22] .

In this study, we explored the possibility that these proteins interfere with RIG-I signaling by directly inhibiting RIG-I activation. Indeed, we could demonstrate that NS1 and NS2 suppressed TRIM25-mediated ubiquitination of RIG-I, which is a crucial step for RIG-I activation. Previously, NS2 has been shown to interact with RIG-I, whereas the interaction between NS1 and RIG-I could not be detected [15] .

Indeed, we could demonstrate that NS1 and NS2 suppressed TRIM25-mediated ubiquitination of RIG-I, which is a crucial step for RIG-I activation. Previously, NS2 has been shown to interact with RIG-I, whereas the interaction between NS1 and RIG-I could not be detected [15] . Thus, suppression of RIG-I ubiquitination by NS2 may be due to its interaction with RIG-I. We also could not detect interaction between NS1 and RIG-I, indicating that NS1 may utilize a separate molecular mechanism to suppress RIG-I ubiquitination. In addition, a previous study showed that NS1 co-localizes with MAVS and inhibits RIG-I interaction with MAVS [16] . Considering that RIG-I ubiquitination is required for its oligomerization and interaction with MAVS, it is conceivable that NS1 suppresses RIG-I interaction with MAVS by interfering with RIG-I ubiquitination, as shown in the current study.

Thus, it was tempting to test the hypothesis that NS1 targets TRIM25, an E3-ubiquitin ligase responsible for RIG-I ubiquitination. Moreover, several viruses utilize their proteins to interfere with TRIM25 activation and subsequent RIG-I activation. For instance, the Influenza NS1 binds to TRIM25 and inhibits TRIM25 multimerization [10] . The SARS coronavirus nucleocapsid protein binds to TRIM25 SPRY and disrupts RIG-I ubiquitination [23] . In this study, the interaction between NS1 and TRIM25 was demonstrated. Since several studies have shown that TRIM25 migrates to the mitochondria upon viral infection to interact with MAVS [24] , the interaction between MAVS and NS1 might be a result of the interaction between NS1 and TRIM25. As expected, NS1 inhibited the interaction between RIG-I CARD and MAVS. These results clearly indicate that NS1 is capable of suppressing RIG-I activation by targeting TRIM25 and inhibiting RIG-I ubiquitination through TRIM25. We have shown that NS1 could suppress the interferon-β promoter activity induced by RIG-IN and MAVS, indicating that NS1 is also capable of suppressing downstream signaling. This can be explained by previous studies showing that NS1 can trigger the degradation of critical downstream molecules such as IRF3. Nonetheless, we have shown that NS1 can suppress TRIM25-mediated ubiquitination of RIG-IN without affecting its amount and that its effect on RIG-IN-mediated interferon-β promoter activity can be reversed by an excessive amount of TRIM25. These results indicate that inhibition of TRIM25-mediated RIG-I ubiquitination by NS1 contributes to the suppression of RIG-I signaling, at least in part.

Interestingly, the biochemical domain mapping study revealed that the SPRY domain of TRIM25 is responsible for interaction with NS1. Given that the SPRY domain is responsible for interaction with RIG-I, a possible molecular mechanism is that NS1 binds to TRIM25 and sequesters it to prevent its interaction with RIG-I. However, we could not observe a significant reduction in interaction between RIG-I and TRIM25 by NS1 (Data not shown). Further studies are needed to identify the detailed molecular mechanism of RSV NS1-mediated TRIM25 dysfunction.

RSV NS2 is known to bind with RIG-I CARD and disrupts its activation [15] and we showed that RSV NS1 interacts with TRIM25 to decrease CARD ubiquitination. In a previous study, RSV NS1 and NS2 have been shown to exist as homo-or heterodimers in mammalian cells. The RSV NS1-NS2 dimer was detected in mitochondria, suggesting that NS1 and NS2 can cooperate to suppress RIG-I signaling [18] . It is also possible that the dimer of RSV NS1 and NS2 interacts with TRIM25 and RIG-I CARD through each NS protein interacting with TRIM25 or RIG-I CARD. Although we could not observe a significant synergistic effect of NS1 and NS2 co-expression in terms of suppression of RIG-I ubiquitination ( Figure 1C) , the NS1 and NS2 interaction may have additional functions in RIG-I signaling. For instance, it is possible that the NS1/NS2 complex induces RIG-I degradation followed by suppression of RIG-I K63-ubiquitination for complete inhibition of the RIG-I signaling pathway.

Collectively, this study demonstrates that RSV NS1 interacts with TRIM25 and suppresses TRIM25-mediated RIG-I activation to evade RIG-I-mediated antiviral responses. Further studies including structural analysis of protein interaction and analysis of the interaction modes between RIG-I, TRIM25, NS1 and NS2 need to be conducted.
