Loss of IKK Subunits Limits NF-κB Signaling in Reovirus-Infected Cells

Abstract excerpt

Host cells mount a response to curb virus replication in infected cells and prevent spread of virus to neighboring, as yet uninfected, cells. The NF-κB family of proteins is important for the cell to mediate this response. In this study, we show that in cells infected with mammalian reovirus, NF-κB is inactive. Further, we demonstrate that NF-κB is rendered inactive because virus infection results in reduced...
