title: Overexpression of CIN85 suppresses the growth of herpes simplex virus in HeLa cells.
abstract: The adaptor protein CIN85 is widely distributed in different tissues and has three Src homology 3 (SH3) domains, a proline-rich region (PRR), and a coiled-coil domain. During studies on the function of CIN85, it was reported to form a complex with herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) infected cell protein 0 (ICP0), which plays a key role in enabling viral replication. Here, we demonstrate that plaque formation by HSV-1 is reduced on HeLa cells expressing CIN85 ectopically. The PRR of CIN85 was found to be essential for the inhibition of virus growth, whereas the three SH3 domains were not required. CIN85 also suppressed HSV-1 growth in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells expressing the receptor for herpes simplex virus entry (herpes virus entry mediator A; HVEM). However, immunoprecipitation experiments showed that CIN85 did not interact with HVEM directly, indicating that CIN85 is not involved in the HSV-1 cell-entry pathway, but rather in another downstream pathway. Collectively, our data indicate that CIN85 might play an important role in HSV-1 infection.
