miR-homoHSV of Singapore grouper iridovirus (SGIV) inhibits expression of the SGIV pro-apoptotic factor LITAF and attenuates cell death.
Growing evidence demonstrates that various large DNA viruses could encode microRNAs (miRNAs) that regulate host and viral genes to achieve immune evasion. In this study, we report that miR-homoHSV, an miRNA encoded by Singapore grouper iridovirus (SGIV), can attenuate SGIV-induced cell death. Mechan...
