Cytomegalovirus m154 hinders CD48 cell-surface expression and promotes viral escape from host natural killer cell control.
Receptors of the signalling lymphocyte-activation molecules (SLAM) family are involved in the functional regulation of a variety of immune cells upon engagement through homotypic or heterotypic interactions amongst them. Here we show that murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) dampens the surface expression...
