MARCH8 promotes the proteasomal degradation of foot-and-mouth disease virus VP1, VP2, and VP3 to negatively regulate viral replication
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The host cell membrane-associated RING-CH8 protein (MARCH8) functions as an antiviral host factor by targeting viral envelope glycoproteins. Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) is a non-enveloped, positive-sense, single-stranded RNA virus. The potential impact of MARCH8 on FMDV replication remains uncertain. Here, we found that the overexpression of MARCH8 significantly inhibited FMDV replication in a dose-dependent manner. Conversely, the knockdown of MARCH8 facilitated FMDV replication. Specifically, MARCH8 interacted with VP1, VP2, and VP3, mediating their degradation in a proteasome-dependent manner. MARCH8 catalyzed the K33-linked polyubiquitination of VP1, VP2, and VP3. Moreover, the Lys210 residue of VP1, the Lys63 residue of VP2, and the Lys118 residue of VP3 were identified as critical target sites for MARCH8-mediated degradation. Overall, we conclude that MARCH8 is an intrinsic antiviral factor against FMDV.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
