Cellular non-membranous RNA-granules, P-bodies (RNA processing bodies, PB) and stress granules (SG), are important components of the innate immune response to virus invasion. Mechanisms governing how a virus modulates PB formation remain elusive. Here, we report the important roles of GW182 and DDX6, but not Dicer, Ago2 and DCP1A, in PB formation, and that Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) lytic infection reduces PB formation through several specific interactions with viral RNA-binding protein ORF57. The wild-type ORF57, but not its N-terminal dysfunctional mutant, inhibits PB formation by interacting with the N-terminal GW-domain of GW182 and the N-terminal domain of Ago2, two major components of PB. KSHV ORF57 also induces nuclear Ago2 speckles. Homologous HSV-1 ICP27, but not EBV EB2, shares this conserved inhibitory function with KSHV ORF57. By using time-lapse confocal microscopy of HeLa cells co-expressing GFP-tagged GW182, we demonstrated that viral ORF57 inhibits primarily the scaffolding of GW182 at the initial stage of PB formation. Consistently, KSHV-infected iSLK/Bac16 cells with reduced GW182 expression produced far fewer PB and SG, but 100-fold higher titer of infectious KSHV virions when compared to cells with normal GW182 expression. Altogether, our data provide the first evidence that a DNA virus evades host innate immunity by encoding an RNA-binding protein that promotes its replication by blocking PB formation.
