Show abstract
DDX3X is a multifunctional DEAD-box RNA helicase with important roles in translation initiation and antiviral innate immune signaling, yet it is currently unknown whether viral infection affects its interactions with host RNAs. Here, we define the transcriptome-wide binding landscape of endogenous DDX3X in Sendai virus-infected human cells using PAR-CLIP. We show that DDX3X maintains its preference for GC-rich, highly structured 5'UTR regions during infection, but acquires a distinct set of infection-induced targets, including IFNB1 and multiple interferon-stimulated genes. We demonstrate that DDX3X directly binds the IFNB1 5'UTR and promotes its translation, establishing a previously unrecognized post-transcriptional mechanism contributing to DDX3X-dependent IFN-{beta} production. We also evaluated DDX3Xs binding to SeV RNAs and concluded that DDX3X is likely not actively recruited by SeV or has a significant effect on its viral life cycle. Our findings add a novel dimension to DDX3Xs involvement in anti-viral immunity with implications for further therapeutic development of DDX3X inhibitors.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
