Contrasting functions of ATP hydrolysis by MDA5 and LGP2 in viral RNA sensing
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
Cytosolic long dsRNA, among the most potent proinflammatory signals, is recognized by melanoma differentiation-associated protein 5 (MDA5). MDA5 binds dsRNA cooperatively forming helical filaments. ATP hydrolysis by MDA5 fulfills a proofreading function by promoting dissociation of shorter endogenous dsRNs from MDA5 while allowing longer viral dsRNAs to remain bound leading to activation of interferon-β responses. Here, we show that adjacent MDA5 subunits in MDA5-dsRNA filaments hydrolyze ATP cooperatively, inducing cooperative filament disassembly. Consecutive rounds of ATP hydrolysis amplify the filament footprint, displacing tightly bound proteins from dsRNA. Our electron microscopy and biochemical assays show that LGP2 binds to dsRNA at internal binding sites through noncooperative ATP hydrolysis. Unlike MDA5, LGP2 has low nucleic acid selectivity and can hydrolyze GTP and CTP as well as ATP. Binding of LGP2 to dsRNA promotes nucleation of MDA5 filament assembly resulting in shorter filaments. Molecular modeling identifies an internally bound MDA5-LGP2-RNA complex, with the LGP2 C-terminal tail forming the key contacts with MDA5. These contacts are specifically required for NTP-dependent internal RNA binding. We conclude that NTPase-dependent binding of LGP2 to internal dsRNA sites complements NTPase-independent binding to dsRNA ends, via distinct binding modes, to increase the number and signaling output of MDA5-dsRNA complexes.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
