Beschreibungen/Notizen

• RNA interference (RNAi) provides antiviral defense in many organisms, including plants, insects, and nematodes. In this issue of Immunity, Fang et al. (2021) utilize designer peptides targeting viral suppressors of RNAi to provide evidence for the relevance of RNAi to antiviral immunity in mammals, also revealing the potential of this approach toward antiviral therapy.
