Betanodavirus Quantification and IFN I-Antagonism Detection Using Luciferase Reporter Systems Based on Fish mx Promoters. [PDF]

J Fish Dis
ABSTRACT Mx genes display strong and quick induction in response to viral infections, which varies according to the viral virulence; furthermore, mx transcription is blocked by several viruses as part of their immune evasion strategies. Therefore, the level and time course of mx induction reflect virus–host interplay. This idea prompted the development
