In the February 20 issue of Cell, report that Rift Valley Fever Virus (RVFV) targets cellular transcriptional apparatus to inhibit RNA polymerase II-mediated transcription. Unlike polio and vesicular stomatitis viruses, both of which target the TATA binding protein (TBP), RVFV appears to target the basal transcription factor THIIH to induce shut-off of host cell transcription.
在2月20日的《细胞》杂志上,有报道称裂谷热病毒(RVFV)靶向细胞转录装置以抑制RNA聚合酶II介导的转录。与脊髓灰质炎病毒和水泡性口炎病毒不同,这两种病毒都靶向TATA结合蛋白(TBP),而RVFV似乎靶向基础转录因子THIIH以诱导宿主细胞转录关闭。
