Abstract Dengue virus (DENV) non-structural protein 5 (NS5) is critical for viral RNA synthesis within endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-derived replication complexes in the cytoplasm; however a proportion of NS5 is known to be localized to the nucleus of infected cells. The importance of nuclear DENV NS5 on viral replication and pathogenesis is still unclear. We recently discovered a nuclear localization signal (NLS) residing in the C-terminal 18 amino acid (Cter(18)) region of DENV NS5 and that a single NS5 P884T amino acid substitution adjacent to the NLS is sufficient to relocalize a significant proportion of DENV2 NS5 from the nucleus to the cytoplasm of infected cells. Here, in vitro studies show that the DENV2 NS5 P884T mutant replicates similarly to the parental wild-type infectious clone-derived virus while inducing a greater type I interferon and inflammatory cytokine response, in a manner independent of NS5's ability to degrade STAT2 or regulate SAT1 splicing. In both AG129 mouse and Aedes aegypti mosquito infection models, the P884T virus exhibits lower levels of viral replication only at early timepoints. Intriguingly, there appears to be a tendency for selection pressure to revert to the wild-type proline in P884T-infected Ae. aegypti, in agreement with the high conservation of the proline at this position of NS5 in DENV2, 3, and 4. These results suggest that the predominant nuclear localization of DENV NS5, while not required for viral RNA replication, may play a role in pathogenesis and modulation of the host immune response and contribute to viral fitness in the mosquito host.
