The Cowpox Virus SPI-3 and Myxoma Virus SERP1 Serpins Are Not Functionally Interchangeable despite Their Similar Proteinase Inhibition Profiles in Vitro [PDF]
The myxoma virus (MYX) serpin SERP1 is a secreted glycoprotein with anti-inflammatory activity that is required for full MYX virulence in vivo. The cowpox virus (CPV) serpin SPI-3 (vaccinia virus ORF K2L) is a nonsecreted glycoprotein that blocks cell ...

Poxvirus-encoded TNF decoy receptors inhibit the biological activity of transmembrane TNF [PDF]
© 2015 The Authors. Poxviruses encode up to four different soluble TNF receptors, named cytokine response modifier B (CrmB), CrmC, CrmD and CrmE. These proteins mimic the extracellular domain of the cellular TNF receptors to bind and inhibit the activity
