Effect of variants in LGP2 on MDA5-mediated activation of interferon response and suppression of hepatitis D virus replication
22 Sept 2022
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Retinoic acid inducible gene I (RIG-I)-like receptors (RLRs), including RIG-I, melanoma differentiation-associated protein 5 (MDA5), and laboratory of genetics and physiology 2 (LGP2), sense viral RNA to induce the antiviral interferon (IFN) response. LGP2, unable to activate the IFN response itself, modulates RIG-I and MDA5 signalling. HDV, a small RNA virus causing the most severe form of...
