Protection against microbial infection in eukaryotes is provided by diverse cellular and
molecular mechanisms. Here, we present a comparative view of the antiviral activity of virus …

Mosquitoes live under the endless threat of infections from different kinds of pathogens such
as bacteria, parasites, and viruses. The mosquito defends itself by employing both physical …

Coronaviruses (CoVs) are large enveloped non-segmented positive-strand RNA viruses that
broadly distribute among humans and other animal species, including bats, mice and birds …

The emerging arthropod-borne flavivirus Zika virus (ZIKV) is associated with neurological
complications. Innate immunity is essential for the control of virus infection, but the innate …

The re-emergence of Zika virus (ZIKV) in the Western Hemisphere has resulted in global
public health crisis since 2015. ZIKV preferentially infects and targets human neural …

RNA has emerged as a revolutionary and important tool in the battle against emerging
infectious diseases, with roles extending beyond its applications in vaccines, in which it is …

To protect against the harmful consequences of viral infections, organisms are equipped
with sophisticated antiviral mechanisms, including cell‐intrinsic means to restrict viral …

Recently, Zika virus (ZIKV) emerged as a global public health concern and is distinct from
other flaviviruses in many aspects, for example, causing transplacental infection, fetal …

While it has long been known that the transmission of mosquito-borne viruses depends on
the establishment of persistent and nonlethal infections in the invertebrate host, specific …

The common feature of flaviviral infection is the accumulation of abundant virus-derived
noncoding RNA, named flaviviral subgenomic RNA (sfRNA) in infected cells. This RNA …
