Abstract: Post-translational modifications (PTMs), as epigenetic modifications, are significant in the interaction between virus and its host. However, it is unclear whether rotavirus (RV) causes changes in both the host cell epigenetic protein modification and the regulatory mechanism of viral replication. Here, we analyzed the proteome of Caco-2 cells to determine if acetylation modification occurred within the cells after RV infection. We found that glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), a protein involved in glycolysis, was deacetylated at lysine 219 via histone deacetylase 9 (HDAC9) in 50 h after the RV infection. Remarkably, the deacetylation of GAPDH promoted RV replication. Finally, we found that glycolysis was alterable in Caco-2 cells by RV or the deacetylation of GAPDH lysine 219, using the Seahorse XF Glycolysis Stress Test. In conclusion, our results demonstrate for the first time that RV infection promoted deacetylation of GAPDH at lysine 219 in order to increase its own viral replication in Caco-2 cells.
