Diverse yeast antiviral systems prevent lethal pathogenesis caused by the L-A mycovirus

Abstract excerpt

Recent studies show that antiviral systems are remarkably conserved from bacteria to mammals, demonstrating that unique insights into these systems can be gained by studying microbial organisms. Unlike in bacteria, however, where phage infection can be lethal, no cytotoxic viral consequence is known in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae even though it is chronically infected with a double-stranded RNA...
