摘要
In a recent paper in Science,Bruchez et al.1 provide new insights how host cells can fight virus infection.They show that an MHC class II transactivator(CIITA)—which normally operates as part of the interferon(IFN)-stimulated immune response—is also involved in an antiviral response,beyond its well-known function of antigen presentation.
