IFI44 is induced by IFN treatment and IAV infection. (A) Human 293T cells were transfected with the pCAGGS plasmid expressing IFI44-HA protein (left) or treated with 150 or 750 U/ml of universal type I IFN for 12 h (right). Western blot was performed using anti-IFI44 (top) and actin (bottom) antibodies. Western blots were quantified by densitometry using ImageJ software (v1.46), and the amounts of IFI44 were normalized to the amounts of actin (numbers below the IFI44 blot). N.D., not detected. Molecular weight markers are indicated (in kilodaltons) on the right. Three different experiments were performed, with similar results. (B) Human A549 cells were infected with influenza PR8 virus at an MOI of 0.1. Total RNAs were collected at 24, 48, and 72 hpi, and the level of expression of IFI44 was evaluated by RT-qPCR and compared to the level seen with noninfected cells (0 hpi). Error bars represent standard deviations (SD) of results of measurements performed in triplicate wells. *, p < 0.05 (for comparisons between results measured for infected cells at 24, 48, and 72 hpi and those measured for noninfected cells [0 hpi] using Student's t test).

IFI44 also known as Interferon-Induced Protein 44 is a protein encoded by the IFI44 gene. This protein has a molecular mass of approximately 49 kDa. IFI44 expresses in various tissues with elevated levels observed in immune-related cells such as leukocytes. Mechanically IFI44 is known to play a role in the antiviral defense mechanisms of cells often upregulated in response to interferon stimuli. It interacts with cytoskeleton elements to mediate its cellular functions.
Biological function summary

IFI44 participates in cellular defense against viral infections by enhancing the immune response. This protein does not function independently but forms part of interferon-stimulated gene complex working together with other proteins to combat virus replication. By regulating this complex IFI44 influences cell signaling and modulates antiviral pathways contributing to the suppression of viral propagation within host cells.

Pathways

IFI44 functions prominently within the interferon signaling pathway and the innate immune response pathway. It collaborates closely with other interferon-stimulated proteins such as ISG15 and MX1 which are engaged in the virus suppression. This cooperation helps orchestrate a swift immune response to external pathogenic threats by inhibiting viral gene expression and replication processes.

IFI44 plays an important role in conditions associated with viral infections such as Hepatitis C and influenza. The protein’s interaction with viral defense proteins like ISG15 is significant in these disorders. Its expression levels often correlate with the severity of the disease serving as a biomarker for the infection state. Understanding IFI44’s precise role in these diseases could lead to novel therapeutic approaches and better management of viral infections.
