Recent advances in antiviral interferon-stimulated gene biology [version 1; referees: 2 approved]

The interferon response protects cells from invading viral pathogens by transcriptionally inducing the expression of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs), some of which encode effectors with varied antiviral functions. As screening technologies improve and mouse model development quickens, more ISGs a...
