More Details: ABSTRACT: Protein arginine methyltransferases (PRMTs) in mammals play a role in various signaling pathways, such as virus infection, inflammasome responses, and cancer growth. While some PRMTs have been found to regulate interferon production in mammals, the mechanism in chickens remains to be fully understood. This study focused on investigating the function of chicken PRMTs. Our findings indicate that chicken PRMTs act as inhibitors of interferon production in response to dsRNA or MDA5 stimulation. Each PRMT is involved in different stages of interferon induction through the MDA5-MAVS-TBK1 pathway. Furthermore, we observed the colocalization of multiple PRMTs with the viral protein VP3 of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV). Among the chicken PRMTs studied, PRMT3 was found to be widely expressed in various organs and its expression was upregulated during IBDV infection. Notably, PRMT3 supported IBDV replication, as demonstrated by ectopic expression and inhibition studies using SGC-707. Silencing of PRMT3 led to enhanced interferon production and inhibition of IBDV replication. This study provides novel insights into the role of chicken PRMTs, particularly PRMT3, in promoting IBDV replication by suppressing interferon signaling.
