This study identifies RBM39 as a regulator of innate immunity by controlling transcription and splicing of key interferon response factors, revealing its potential as a therapeutic target.

This study shows that Hepatitis E Virus (HEV) ORF2 protein modulates plasmacytoid dendritic cell (pDC)-mediated antiviral responses by affecting pDC recognition of infected cells.

This study identifies ORF2 as a key HEV protein that suppresses antiviral responses in hepatocytes, enabling viral persistence.

The paper investigates how the position of DNA double strand breaks influences gene expression and VSG switching pathway choice in Trypanosoma brucei.

This study shows RAD50 promotes homologous recombination and limits antigenic variation in Trypanosoma brucei by controlling DNA repair mechanisms.
