ZMPSTE24 Is Downstream Effector of Interferon-Induced Transmembrane Antiviral Activity
8 Jun 2017
Abstract excerpt
The zinc metalloprotease ZMPSTE24 is a constitutively and ubiquitously expressed host restriction factor that is responsible for limiting infection by a broad spectrum of enveloped viruses, including influenza A, vesicular stomatitis, zika, ebola, Sindbis, cowpox, and vaccinia viruses, but not murine leukemia or adenovirus.
