The Cytomegalovirus m155 Gene Product Subverts Natural Killer Cell Antiviral Protection by Disruption of H60–NKG2D Interactions
Natural killer (NK) cells are an important early mediator of host immunity to murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) infection. However, MCMV has evolved mechanisms to elude recognition and clearance by NK cells. We have identified an MCMV immune evasion protein that impairs NKG2D-mediated NK cell antiviral...
