title: Adenovirus sequesters phosphorylated STAT1 at viral replication centers and inhibits STAT dephosphorylation.
abstract: Tyrosine phosphorylation and nuclear translocation of STAT1 indicate activation of interferon (IFN) signal transduction pathways. Here, we demonstrate that tyrosine-phosphorylated STAT1 is targeted by a unique mechanism in adenovirus (Ad)-infected cells. Ad is known to suppress IFN-inducible gene expression; however, we observed that Ad infection prolongs the tyrosine phosphorylation of STAT1 induced by alpha IFN in infected cells. To understand this paradoxical effect, we examined the subcellular localization of STAT1 following Ad infection and found that nuclear, tyrosine-phosphorylated STAT1 accumulates at viral replication centers. This form of STAT1 colocalized with newly synthesized viral DNA. Viral DNA replication, but not viral late gene expression, is required for the regulation of STAT1 phosphorylation. Our results indicate that Ad infection regulates STAT1 dephosphorylation rather than STAT1 phosphorylation. Consistent with this idea, we show that Ad infection disrupts the interaction between STAT1 and its cognate protein tyrosine phosphatase, TC45. Our findings indicate that Ad sequesters phosphorylated STAT1 at viral replication centers and inhibits STAT dephosphorylation. This report suggests a strategy employed by Ad to counteract an active form of STAT1 in the nucleus of infected cells.
