Outline of Final Research Achievements

We previously showed that rRNA degradation occurs in Bombyx cells (BM-N cells) as an antiviral immune response during abortive infection with heterologous nucleopolyhedroviruses (NPVs). In the present study, we examined the induction mechanisms of rRNA degradation in Autographa californica NPV (AcMNPV) infected BM-N cells. We identified AcMNPV p143 (ac-p143) as an inducer of rRNA degradation. And then, we investigated the domain of Ac-P143 responsible for rRNA degradation, the cellular factors interacting with Ac-P143, and the signal transduction factors responsible for induction of rRNA degradation.
