Résumé

The Piwi-interacting RNA (piRNA) pathway has been shown to be involved in the antiviral defense against RNA viruses, especially in mosquitoes, but its universality has been questioned. Here, we used the Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) -infected silkworm as a model to explore the effects of the key factors of piRNA pathway, BmAgo3 and Siwi, on replication of a large DNA virus (belonging to the family of Baculoviridae). We demonstrated that BmAgo3 and Siwi could promote the replication of BmNPV through both overexpression and knockdown experiments in BmN cell lines and silkworm larvae. In addition, we also studied the effect of PIWI-class genes on Autographa californica nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) replication in the Spodoptera frugiperda cell line Sf9. By knocking down the expression of PIWI-class genes in Sf9, we found that Piwi-like-1 and Piwi-like-2-3 could inhibit AcMNPV replication, while Piwi-like-4-5 promoted virus replication. Our study provides compelling evidence that the piRNA pathway affects host infection by exogenous viruses in Lepidoptera. Also, our results reflect the diversity of the roles of PIWI-class genes in virus infection of the host across species. This study is the first to explore the interaction of PIWI-class proteins with DNA viruses, providing new insights into the functional roles of the piRNA pathway.
