Activation of cellular interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) after
infection with herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) or human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) was investigated. The level of ISG54-specific RNA in human fetal lung (HFL) or human foreskin (BJ) fibroblasts increased substantially after infection with either virus in the presence of cycloheximide. HSV-1 particles lacking glycoprotein D or
glycoprotein H failed to induce ISG54-specific RNA synthesis, demonstrating that entry of virus particles rather than binding of
virions to the cell surface was required for the effect. A DNA-binding
complex that recognized an interferon-responsive sequence motif was
induced upon infection with HSV-1 or HCMV in the presence of
cycloheximide, and the complex was shown to contain the cell proteins
interferon response factor 3 (IRF-3) and CREB-binding protein. IRF-3
was modified after infection with HSV-1 or HCMV to a form of lower
electrophoretic mobility, consistent with phosphorylation. De novo
transcription of viral or cellular genes was not required for the
activation of IRF-3, since the effect was not sensitive to inhibition
by actinomycin D. Infection of HFL fibroblasts with HSV-1 under
conditions in which viral replication proceeded normally resulted in
severely reduced levels of the IRF-3-containing complex, defining the
activation of IRF-3 as a target for viral interference with ISG
induction. In BJ fibroblasts, however, significant activation of IRF-3
was detected even when the viral gene expression program progressed to
later stages, demonstrating that the degree of inhibition of the
response was dependent on host cell type. As a consequence of IRF-3
activation, endogenous interferon was released from BJ cells and was
capable of triggering the appropriate signal transduction pathway in
both infected and uninfected cells. Activation of ISG54-specific RNA
synthesis was not detected after infection of human U-373MG glioblastoma cells, showing that the induction of the response by
infection is cell type dependent.
