Role of PKR and Type I IFNs in viral control during primary and secondary infection.

Type I interferons (IFNs) are known to mediate viral control, and also promote survival and expansion of virus-specific CD8+ T cells. However, it is unclear whether signaling cascades involved in eliciting these diverse cellular effects are also distinct. One of the best-characterized anti-viral sig...

Role of PKR and Type I IFNs in viral control during primary and secondary infection.
description Type I interferons (IFNs) are known to mediate viral control, and also promote survival and expansion of virus-specific CD8+ T cells.
