Insect dome receptor directly recognizes viral envelopes to activate JAK/STAT signaling and induce conserved antiviral viperin expression by Siyu Chen, Yupeng Tang, Chunyu Zhang, You Li, Dongsheng Jia, Taiyun Wei

“…Here, we reveal that outer capsid protein of a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) arbovirus (rice gall dwarf virus, RGDV) directly binds the Dome receptor’s extracellular domain, triggering receptor dimerization and JAK/STAT activation. Structural and mutational analyses pinpoint cysteine 743 in Dome as essential for viral recognition, establishing Dome as the first identified viral pattern recognition receptor (PRR) in insects capable of initiating JAK/STAT signaling, a pathway previously thought to be exclusively cytokine dependent. …”
