Impaired activation of Transposable Elements in SARS-CoV-2 infection
2021-02-25
Abstract excerpt
Transposable element (TE) transcription is induced in response to viral infections. TE induction triggers a robust and durable interferon (IFN) response, providing a host defense mechanism. Still, the connection between SARS-CoV-2 IFN response and TEs remains largely unknown. Here, we analyzed TE expression changes in response to SARS-CoV-2 infection in different human cellular models. We find that compared to oth...
