8 Jun 2020
Abstract excerpt
Human infection with avian influenza A (H5N1) and (H7N9) viruses causes severe respiratory diseases.PB1-F2 protein is a critical virulence factor that suppresses early type I interferon response, but the mechanism of its action in relation to high pathogenicity is not well understood.Here we show that PB1-F2 protein of H7N9 virus is a particularly potent suppressor of antiviral signaling through formation of...
