摘要：SummaryHeterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNPs) play critical roles in the nuclear export, splicing, and sensing of RNA. However, the role of heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A/B (hnRNPAB) is poorly understood. In this study, we report that hnRNPAB cooperates with nucleoprotein (NP) to restrict viral mRNA nuclear export via inhibiting viral mRNA binding to ALY and NXF1. HnRNPAB restricts mRNA transfer from ALY to NXF1, inhibiting the mRNA nuclear export. Moreover, when cells are invaded by influenza A virus, NP interacts with hnRNPAB and interrupts the ALY-UAP56 interaction, leading to repression of ALY-viral mRNA binding, and then inhibits the viral mRNA binding to NXF1, leading to nuclear stimulation of viral mRNA. Collectively, these observations provide a new role of hnRNPAB to act as an mRNA nuclear retention factor, which is also effective for viral mRNA of influenza A virus, and NP cooperates with hnRNPAB to further restrict the viral mRNA nuclear export.Graphical abstractDisplay OmittedHighlights•HnRNPAB inhibits influenza A virus replication by repressing viral mRNA nuclear export•HnRNPAB interrupts viral mRNA transferring from ALY to NXF1•NP cooperates with hnRNPAB to further restrict viral mRNA nuclear export•The ALY-viral mRNA binding is restricted by NP-hnRNPAB complexMolecular Biology; Virology
