Structure of the Newcastle Disease Virus L protein in complex with tetrameric phosphoprotein

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Newcastle disease virus (NDV) belongs to Paramyxoviridae and encodes a large protein (L) and phosphoprotein (P) for viral RNA synthesis. Here the authors present cryo-EM structures of the L-P complex, and propose a model of how RNA initiation/elongation ...

Melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5) is involved in the innate immune response to Paramyxoviridae infection in vivo. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2010
The early host response to pathogens is mediated by several distinct pattern recognition receptors. Cytoplasmic RNA helicases including RIG-I and MDA5 have been shown to respond to viral RNA by inducing interferon (IFN) production.
