Modulation of macrophage functions by sheeppox virus provides clues to understand interaction of the virus with host immune system [PDF]
Background Poxviruses encode a range of immunomodulatory genes to subvert or evade the challenges posed by the innate and adaptive immune responses. However, the inactivated poxviruses possessed immunostimulating capacity and were used as a prophylactic ...

Molecular Determinants of Species-Specific Interactions Between Protein Kinase R and Poxvirus K3 Orthologs [PDF]
Protein kinase R (PKR) is an antiviral protein that is involved in molecular “arms races” with viral antagonists. As a result, some PKR inhibitors, including the vaccinia virus (VACV) protein K3 and its orthologs from other poxviruses only inhibit PKRs ...
