Viral double-strand RNA-binding proteins can enhance innate immune signaling by toll-like Receptor 3.

Viral double-strand RNA-binding proteins can enhance innate immune signaling by toll-like Receptor 3.

Toll-like Receptor 3 (TLR3) detects double-stranded (ds) RNAs to activate innate immune responses. While poly(I:C) is an excellent agonist for TLR3 in several cell lines and in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells, viral dsRNAs tend to be poor agonists, leading to the hypothesis that additional...
