The Japanese Encephalitis Virus NS1′ Protein Inhibits Type I IFN Production by Targeting MAVS
29 Jan 2020
Abstract excerpt
It is produced through programmed -1 ribosomal frameshift in NS2A. Our previous study demonstrated that JEV NS1' could antagonize type I IFN (IFN-I) production, but the mechanism is still unclear. In the current study, we found that JEV NS1' inhibits the expression of MAVS, and knockdown of MAVS hampers inhibition of IFN-β induction by NS1', suggesting that JEV NS1' inhibits IFN-I production by targeting MAVS....
