Structural and functional characterization of salmon STAT1, STAT2 and IRF9 homologs sheds light on interferon signaling in teleosts

•The transcription factors STAT2 and IRF9 from Atlantic salmon have been identified.•STAT2 co-expressed with STAT1 translocates to the nucleus upon IFN stimulation.•STAT2 are tyrosine phosphorylated upon type I IFN and IFNγ stimulation.•STAT2 and STAT1, as well as IRF9, activates GAS elements upon I...
