A two-step mechanism for RIG-I activation by influenza virus mini viral RNAs

Emmanuelle M. Pitré, Karishma Bisht, Kaleigh A. Remick…·Aartjan J.W. te Velthuis

This study identifies a two-step mechanism by which influenza virus mini viral RNAs (mvRNAs) activate RIG-I through non-canonical transcription and RNA structure-dependent binding.

Influenza A virus transcription generates capped cRNAs that activate RIG-I

Elizaveta Elshina, Emmanuelle M. Pitré, Marisa Mendes…·Aartjan J.W. te Velthuis

This study identifies a novel IAV RNA species, capped complementary RNAs (ccRNAs), which hybridize with viral RNA to activate RIG-I, revealing an alternative mechanism for innate immune activation during IAV infection.
