    Abstract:
    Singapore grouper iridovirus (SGIV) is a large double-stranded DNA virus that has caused significant economic losses to the grouper aquaculture industry. So far, the structure and function of SGIV proteins have been successively reported. In the present paper, the protein of SGIV VP146 was cloned and identified. VP146 was whole-cell distributed in GS cells. VP146 promoted SGIV replication and inhibited the transcription of interferon-related genes as well as pro-inflammatory cytokines in GS cells. In addition, VP146 was involved in the regulation of the cGAS-STING signaling pathway, and decreased cGAS-STING induced the promoter of ISRE and NF-κB. VP146 interacted with the proteins of cGAS, STING, TBK1, and IRF3 from grouper, but did not affect the binding of grouper STING to grouper TBK1 and grouper IRF3. Interestingly, grouper STING was able to affect the intracellular localization of VP146. Four segment structural domains of grouper STING were constructed, and grouper STING-CTT could affect the intracellular localization of VP146. VP146 had no effect on the self-binding of EcSITNG, nor on the binding of EcSTING to EcTBK1 and EcIRF3. Together, the results demonstrated that SGIV VP146 modulated the cGAS-STING signaling pathway to escape the interferon immune response.
