NS1 lacks RNAi suppression in mammalian cells; challenges cross-species extrapolation and leaves open RNAi contributions to human antiviral defense.
Does Influenza A virus NS1 protein suppress RNA interference in mammalian cells?
The study demonstrates that unlike in plants and Drosophila, the Influenza A virus NS1 protein does not suppress RNA interference in mammalian cells, highlighting a significant difference in RNAi mechanisms.
Kok et al. (2006) studied this question.
