Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The interferon inducible Myxovirus (influenza virus) resistance A (MxA) is considered as a key mediator of the interferon-induced antiviral response. Mx proteins contain the typical GTP-binding motif and show significant homology to dynamin family of GTPases. Strong interaction of MxA with tubulin suggests that Mx proteins could be involved in mitosis. Studies have shown that MxA inhibit tumor...
