Zinc-finger antiviral protein inhibits replication of Senecavirus A by the short isoform activating RIG-I signaling pathway and the longer isoform targeting viral 3D.

Worldwide distributed Senecavirus A (SVA) poses a threat to pig herds, while, the role of host factor, zinc-finger antiviral protein (ZAP), in SVA infection is still unidentified. Here, ZAP inhibits replication of SVA by the short isoform (ZAP-S) activating RIG-I signaling pathway and the longer isoform (ZAP-L) targeting viral 3D was reported. Overexpression of ZAP-L and ZAP-S inhibit SVA replication, resulting in enhanced expression of interferon-beta (IFN-β) and related cytokines, and interference expression of ZAP has the opposite effect.
