Western blot analysis of extracts from THP-1(lane 2(20ug) ,Jurkat(lane 3(20ug) and HEK293(lane 4(20ug) using MDA5 Antibody (HY-P82654) Rabbit mAb. Proteins were transferred to a PVDF membrane and blocked with 5% non-fat milk in TBST for 2 hour at room temperature. The primary antibody (1/1000) and Loading control antibody (Beta Actin, HY-P80438, 1/10000) was used in 5% non-fat milk in TBST at 4°C overnight. Goat Anti-Mouse/Rabbit IgG-HRP Secondary Antibody (1/10000) was used for 1 hour at room temperature.

Immunocytochemistry analysis of HepG2 cells labeling MDA5 with MDA5 Antibody (HY-P82654) at 1/50 dilution. Cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 15 minutes at room temperature, permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 10 minutes at room temperature, then blocked with QuickBlock™ Blocking Buffer for Immunol Staining for 10 min at room temperature. Cells were then incubated with MDA5 Antibody (HY-P82654) at 1/50 dilution in QuickBlock™ Blocking Buffer for Immunol Staining at 4 ℃. Alexa Fluor® 488-conjugated AffiniPure Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L(HY-P8002, Green) was used as the secondary antibody at 1/1,000 dilution. PBS instead of the primary antibody was used as the secondary antibody only control. The Nuclear counterstain was DAPI (Blue).

Background

Function
MDA5, encoded by IFIH1, functions as a cytoplasmic RNA sensor in innate immune responses[1]. Mechanistically, MDA5 recognizes long double-stranded RNA and assembles cooperative filaments that support antiviral signal activation[2][3]. ATP hydrolysis regulates filament dynamics, allowing MDA5 to discriminate viral dsRNA length during immune sensing[4]. RNA 2′-O-methylation also contributes to self-non-self RNA discrimination through an MDA5-dependent mechanism[5]. In disease models, MDA5 participates in antiviral defense against Paramyxoviridae infection in vivo[6]. Clinically, IFIH1/MDA5 is a dermatomyositis-specific autoantigen recognized by anti-CADM-140 antibody[1]. Compared with RIG-I, MDA5 preferentially detects longer dsRNA, whereas RIG-I responds more strongly to shorter dsRNA ligands[3]. This isoform distinction makes dsRNA length a practical design variable for experiments using poly (I:C) or viral RNA mimics[3].

Isoforms & Post-Translational Modification
Q9BYX4 has 2 isomers: Q9BYX4-1: 116689 Da (predicted); Q9BYX4-2: 25129 Da (predicted).
Sumoylated. Sumoylation positively regulates its role in type I interferon induction and is enhanced by PIAS2-beta;Ubiquitinated by RNF125, leading to its degradation by the proteasome (PubMed:17460044). USP17/UPS17L2-dependent deubiquitination positively regulates the receptor (PubMed:20368735). Ubiquitinated by TRIM25 via 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitination, promoting activation of IFIH1/MDA5 (PubMed:30193849). Ubiquitinated by TRIM40 via 'Lys-48'-linked ubiquitination; leading to proteasomal degradation (PubMed:29117565). Ubiquitinated by TRIM65 via 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitination, promoting activation of IFIH1/MDA5 (PubMed:28594402);ISGylated by ISG15. ISGylation increases upon infection with dengue (DENV) or Zika (ZIKV) viruses. ISGylation at Lys-23 and Lys-43 is dependent of dephosphorylation at Ser-88, regulates mitochondrial translocation and oligomerization. Essential for IFIH1/MDA5-mediated cytokine responses and restriction of virus replication;Phosphorylated at Ser-88 (PubMed:23499489, PubMed:33727702). Dephosphorylated by phosphatases PPP11CA/PPP11CC; dephosphorylation precedes and is required for ISGylation (PubMed:23499489, PubMed:33727702);During apoptosis, processed into 3 cleavage products. The helicase-containing fragment, once liberated from the CARD domains, translocate from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. The processed protein significantly sensitizes cells to DNA degradation;(Microbial infection) Cleaved and inactivated by the protease 2A of coxsackievirus B3, poliovirus and enterovirus 71 allowing the virus to disrupt the host type I interferon production -
Subunit
Monomer in the absence of ligands and homodimerizes in the presence of dsRNA ligands. Can assemble into helical or linear polymeric filaments on long dsRNA (PubMed:33727702). Interacts with MAVS/IPS1. Interacts (via the CARD domains) with TKFC, the interaction is inhibited by viral infection (PubMed:17600090). Interacts with PCBP2. Interacts with NLRC5. Interacts with PIAS2-beta. Interacts with DDX60. Interacts with ANKRD17. Interacts with IKBKE (PubMed:17600090). Interacts with ATG5 and ATG12, either as ATG5 and ATG12 monomers or as ATG12-ATG5 conjugates (PubMed:17709747). Interacts with ZCCHC3; leading to activate IFIH1/MDA5 (PubMed:30193849). Interacts with RNF123 (PubMed:27312109). Interacts with DDX3X (PubMed:20127681). Interacts with NOD1; this interaction promotes transcription of antiviral genes and inhibition of viral replication (PubMed:32169843). Interacts with ECSIT; this interaction bridges IFIH1 to the MAVS complex at the mitochondrion (PubMed:25228397)
