A SOCS1/3 antagonist peptide protects mice against lethal infection with influenza A virus

We have developed an antagonist to suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 (SOCS1), pJAK2(1001-1013), that corresponds to the activation loop of the Janus kinase JAK2, which is the binding site for the kinase inhibitory region (KIR) of SOCS1. Internalized pJAK2(1001-1013) inhibits SOCS1 and SOCS3. SOCS...
