IFIT3 RNA-binding activity promotes influenza A virus infection and translation efficiency
11 Jun 2025
Abstract excerpt
Host cells produce a vast network of antiviral factors in response to viral infection. The interferon-induced proteins with tetratricopeptide repeats (IFITs) are important effectors of a broad-spectrum antiviral response. In contrast to their canonical roles, we previously identified IFIT2 and IFIT3 as pro-viral host factors during influenza A virus (IAV) infection. During IAV infection, IFIT2 binds and enhances...
