NS5 Conservative Site Is Required for Zika Virus to Restrict the RIG-I Signaling
14 Feb 2020
Abstract excerpt
During host-virus co-evolution, cells develop innate immune systems to inhibit virus invasion, while viruses employ strategies to suppress immune responses and maintain infection. Here, we reveal that Zika virus (ZIKV), a re-emerging arbovirus causing public concerns and devastating complications, restricts host immune responses through a distinct mechanism. ZIKV nonstructural protein 5 (NS5) interacts with the...
