Cardiovirus-Mediated PKR Inhibition Results from Nucleocytoplasmic Trafficking Disruption

Romane Milcamps, Belén Lizcano-Perret, Fanny Wavreil, Marielle Lebrun, Chiara Aloise, Didier Vertommen, Gaëtan Herinckx, Frank J. M. van Kuppeveld, Catherine Sadzot, Thomas Michiels

This study shows that cardiovirus L protein disrupts nucleocytoplasmic trafficking, leading to PKR inhibition by sequestering PKR in nucleoli and releasing nuclear RNA-binding proteins into the cytosol.

PLoS Pathogens · Dec 17, 2025Peer-reviewedImmunology

The leader proteins of Theiler's virus and Boone cardiovirus use a combination of Short Linear Motifs (SLiMs) to target RSK kinases to the nuclear pore complex.

Belén Lizcano-Perret, Fanny Wavreil, Martin Veinstein, Camille Duflos, Romane Milcamps, Frédéric Sorgeloos, Thomas Michiels

This paper identifies a second SLiM in cardiovirus L proteins that enables RSK kinases to target the nuclear pore complex via RAE1 interaction.

Journal of Virology · Sep 10, 2025Peer-reviewedMicrobiology

The "DDVF" motif used by viral and bacterial proteins to hijack RSK kinases evolved as a mimic of a short linear motif (SLiM) found in proteins related to the RAS-ERK MAP kinase pathway.

Martin Veinstein, Vincent Stroobant, Fanny Wavreil, Thomas Michiels, Frédéric Sorgeloos

The paper identifies human proteins that interact with RSK kinases via DDVF-like SLiMs, showing pathogens mimic these motifs to alter RAS-ERK MAPK pathway regulation.
