UL46 is one of the most abundant tegument proteins of HSV-1, but a well-established function has yet to be found. We found that the HSV-1 UL46 protein interacts with and colocalizes with STING. A ΔUL46 virus displayed growth defects and activated innate immunity, but both effects were alleviated in STING knockdown cells. UL46 was also required for the inhibition of the 2',3'-cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAMP)-dependent immune responses during infection. In cells expressing UL46, out of the context of the infection, innate immunity to a ΔICP0 virus was largely compromised, and that permitted ICP0-deficient mutants to replicate. The UL46-expressing cell lines also rescued the defects of the ΔUL46 virus and enhanced wild-type virus infection. The UL46-expressing cell lines did not activate interferon-stimulated gene (ISG) transcription following treatment with the noncanonical cyclic dinucleotide 2',3'-cGAMP, suggesting that the STING pathway may be compromised. Indeed, we found that both proteins STING and IFI16 were eliminated in cells constitutively expressing UL46 and that the accumulation of their transcripts was blocked. Finally, we demonstrated that UL46 via its N terminus binds to STING and, via its C terminus, to TBK1. These interactions appear to modulate the functions of STING during HSV-1 infection. Taken together, our studies describe a novel function for one of the least-studied proteins of HSV, the tegument protein UL46, and that function involves the evasion of foreign DNA-sensing pathways.IMPORTANCE Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) afflicts 80% of the population worldwide, causing various diseases. After initial infection, the virus establishes latent reservoirs in sensory neurons and persists for life. Here we describe novel interactions between HSV-1 and the DNA sensor STING. We found that (i) HSV-1 tegument protein UL46 interacts with and colocalizes with STING; (ii) UL46 expressed out of the context of the infection blocks type I interferon triggered by STING stimuli, through the elimination of STING and of interferon-inducible protein 16 (IFI16); (iii) a ΔUL46 virus displayed growth defects, which were rescued in STING knockdown cells; (iv) the ΔUL46 virus failed to block innate immunity triggered by ligands of STING such as 2',3'-cGAMP and also activated IFN-β and ISG expression; and (v) UL46 binds to both STING and TBK1 through different domains. We conclude that UL46 counteracts the actions of STING during HSV-1 infection."xsd:string
