Species-independent contribution of ZBP1/DAI/DLM-1-triggered necroptosis in host defense against HSV1
26 Jul 2018
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Necroptosis complements apoptosis as a host defense pathway to stop virus infection. Herpes simplex virus shows a propensity to trigger necroptosis of mouse cells and mice even though cell death is blocked in human cells through UL39-encoded ICP6. This ribonucleotide reductase large subunit (R1) nucleates RHIM-dependent oligomerization of RIP3 kinase (RIPK3, also known as RIP3) in mouse cells but...
