Lysine methyltransferase SMYD2 inhibits antiviral innate immunity by promoting IRF3 dephosphorylation

Abstracts Phosphorylation of IRF3 is critical to induce type I interferon (IFN-I) production in antiviral innate response. Here we report that lysine methyltransferase SMYD2 inhibits the expressions of IFN-I and proinflammatory cytokines in macrophages upon viral infections. The Smyd2-deficient mice...
