Abstract

As a RIG-I-like Receptor, MDA5 plays a critical role in Antiviral innate immunity by acting as a cytoplasmic double-stranded RNA sensor capable of initiating type I interferon pathways. Here, we show that RNF144B specifically interacts with MDA5 and promotes K27/K33-linked polyubiquitination of MDA5 at lysine 23 and lysine 43, which promotes autophagic degradation of MDA5 by p62. Rnf144b deficiency greatly promotes IFN production and inhibits EMCV replication in vivo. Importantly, Rnf144b-/- mice has a significantly higher overall survival rate than wild-type mice upon EMCV Infection. Collectively, our results identify RNF144B as a negative regulator of innate Antiviral response by targeting CARDs of MDA5 and mediating autophagic degradation of MDA5.
