Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research aimed to identify host factors, which regulate influenza virus genome function, and to analyze the replicational and post-replicational regulation of influenza virus genome. We identified pp32/APRIL and Prp18 as stimulatory factors of viral RNA polymerase. Further, we found that newly synthesized viral genomes are recruited to the centrosome by YB-1, and the progeny viral genome is transported to the plasma membrane via cholesterol-enriched Rab11a-positive recycling endosomes. Cholesterol is thought to be a trigger for the virus assembly concomitantly with arrival of the virus genome beneath the plasma membrane.
