The formation of cytoplasmic stress granules and the innate immune response are two distinct cellular stress responses. Our study investigated the involvement of four innate immune proteins retinoic- acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I, also known as DDX58), melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5, also known as IFIH1), IFN-beta promoter stimulator (IPS-1, also known as MAVS) and protein kinase regulated by dsRNA (PKR, also known as EIF2AK2) in the formation of stress granules. Knockdown of IPS-1 or PKR significantly decreased the formation of stress granules induced by double-stranded (ds)RNA. IPS-1 depletion markedly attenuated the phosphorylation of PKR and eIF2 alpha that was triggered by dsRNA, and IPS-1 facilitated the in vitro autophosphorylation of PKR. In IPS-1-depleted cells, the dsRNA-mediated dimerization of PKR through its dsRNA-binding domains was significantly abrogated, suggesting that IPS-1 might be involved in PKR dimerization. By co-immunoprecipitation and pulldown assays, our data demonstrate that IPS-1 directly binds to PKR through the IPS-1 caspase activation and recruitment domain (CARD), suggesting that the effect of IPS-1 on the formation of stress granules might be exerted through interacting with PKR and mediating its activation. PKR was recruited into stress granules upon activation, whereas the majority of IPS-1 protein formed clusters on mitochondrial membranes. Our work provides the first evidence that the innate signaling molecule IPS-1 plays an essential role in stress granule formation.
