The Cytomegalovirus M35 Protein Modulates Transcription of <i>Ifnb1</i> and Other IRF3-Driven Genes by Direct Promoter Binding
2023-03-21
Abstract excerpt
Induction of type I interferon (IFN) gene expression is among the first lines of cellular defence a virus encounters during primary infection. We previously identified the tegument protein M35 of murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) as an essential antagonist of this antiviral system. M35 localizes to the nucleus and interferes with type I IFN induction downstream of pattern-recognition receptor (PRR) activation. Here, w...
