| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
NXF1 is previously known as a transporter of host mRNA. Using n vitro RNA gel-shift assay, we found that influenza virus mRNA directly binds to NXF1. In addition, we found that influenza virus mRNA can bind to MC domain of NXF1, although host mRNA binds to RBD, suggesting that binding patterns of influenza virus RNA and host RNA to NXF1 are different. Also, we developed a experimental system that can screen the compounds that can inhibit the interaction of viral mRNA and NXF1 MC domain. This may lead to develop the drugs that can inhibit influenza virus mRNA specific nuclear export.
