Abstract

Avian reovirus (ARV) causes viral arthritis, chronic respiratory diseases, retarded growth and malabsorption syndrome. It is well established that the ARV sigma-C protein induces apoptosis in host cells. However, the underlying molecular mechanism of this induction is still unclear. We report here the identification of eukaryotic elongation factor 1 alpha 1 (EEF1A1) as the interacting partner of σC. We found that σC-induced apoptosis in DF-1 cells could be completely abolished by knockdown of EEF1A1 by siRNA. Furthermore, knockdown of EEF1A1 markedly reduced ARV-induced apoptosis associated with decreased caspase-9 and -3 activation and cytochrome C release, leading to increased ARV growth in host cells. Thus, EEF1A1 plays a critical role in σC-induced apoptosis and inhibition of viral growth.
