MDA5 disease variant M854K prevents ATP-dependent structural ... - Nature
Nov 18, 2021 · We show that the M854K mutation abrogates ATPase activity, stabilizes MDA5-dsRNA complexes, increases IFN-β transcription, and dampens the cooperativity of signal …
MDA5 - Wikipedia
MDA5 (melanoma differentiation-associated protein 5) is a RIG-I-like receptor dsRNA helicase enzyme that is encoded by the IFIH1 gene in humans. [5] MDA5 is part of the RIG-I-like …
Activation of MDA5 Requires Higher-Order RNA Structures …
Recognition of virus presence via RIG-I (retinoic acid inducible gene I) and/or MDA5 (melanoma differentiation-associated protein 5) initiates a signaling cascade that culminates in …
