The NS1 protein of influenza B virus binds 5’-triphosphorylated dsRNA to suppress RIG-I activation and the host antiviral response
2023-09-25
Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Influenza A and B viruses overcome the host antiviral response to cause a contagious and often severe human respiratory disease. Here, integrative structural biology and biochemistry studies on non- structural protein 1 of influenza B virus (NS1B) reveal a previously unrecognized viral mechanism for innate immune evasion. Conserved basic groups of its C-terminal domain (NS1B-CTD) bind 5’- triphos...
