Research Abstract |
Emergence of new epidemic viruses such as swine flu and SARS spread rapidly and sometimes causes devastating impact. Innate immune system detects viral infection and protects host with viral sensors. Cytoplasmic viral RNA sensors, RLRs, sense viral RNA and initiate antiviral response, however it has been unclear how RLRs encounter viral RNA in cytoplasm. We revealed that RLRs localized in virus-induced granules together with viral RNA and trigger antiviral signal. We termed these aggregates as antiviral stress granules (avSGs).
