An ancient anthozoan protein reveals an alternative evolutionary path of antiviral signaling

Ton Sharoni, Adrian Jaimes‐Becerra, Sydney Birch…·Yehu Moran

The paper identifies CARDIB, an ancient anthozoan protein that represses immune genes but is essential for antiviral activation, revealing an alternative evolutionary path of antiviral signaling.
