Identifies sigma 3 as a reovirus PKR inhibitor in animal models; leaves open relevance to human antiviral responses or therapies.
The reovirus serotype 1 sigma 3 protein inhibits the interferon-induced, dsRNA-dependent protein kinase, providing a mechanism for viral evasion of host antiviral responses.
Imani et al. (1988) studied this question.
