The Role of Zinc-Finger Antiviral Proteins in Immunity against Viruses
2020-04-01
Abstract excerpt
Abstract The Zinc finger antiviral proteins (ZAP) are expressed by the cells in response to different viral attacks. The ZAP marks the viral mRNA for degradation with the help of different cellular proteins for exosome.
