Viral infection and stimulation of pattern-recognition receptors such as the toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) in the endosomes or the RIG-I-like receptors in the cytosol leads to the activation of the IKK-related TANK binding kinase 1 (TBK1). TBK1 in turn phosphorylates the interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3). The phosphorylated IRF3 forms a dimer and translocates to the nucleus, activating the transcription of type I IFN (IFN-I) genes (Tu D et al. 2013). Non-structural protein 6 (nsp6) originated from severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) was found to interact with TBK1 in human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) cells, that were co-transfected with plasmids expressing TBK1 and tagged nsp6 (Xia H et al. 2020). Viral nsp6 antagonized IFN-I production in HEK293 cells by binding to TBK1 and suppressing phosphorylation of IRF3 (Xia H et al. 2020).
