Research Abstract |
Aichi virus is thought to be a causative agent of acute gastroenteritis in humans. Understanding the mechanism of the growth of pathogens is required for effective control of infectious diseases ; however, the mechanism of Aichi virus replication remains to be cleared. In this study, two host factors essential for Aichi virus replication were identified. The studies on other viruses report that these host proteins are involved in replication of the viruses. Findings in this study, together with the other studies, may lead to the development of drugs to control infection or growth of multiple viruses.
