Journal ArticleDOI

Direct Recognition of Cytomegalovirus by Activating and Inhibitory NK Cell Receptors

TL;DR: Mouse cytomegalovirus encodes an MHC-like protein that binds to an inhibitory NK cell receptor in certain MCMV-susceptible mice, and this viral protein engages a related activating receptor and confers host protection.
Journal ArticleDOI

RIP3 mediates the embryonic lethality of caspase-8-deficient mice

TL;DR: It is found that RIP3 is responsible for the mid-gestational death of Casp8-deficient embryos and together completely dispensable for mammalian development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Toll-like Receptor 3-mediated Necrosis via TRIF, RIP3, and MLKL

TL;DR: Two small molecule RIP3 kinase inhibitors are described and employ them to demonstrate the common requirement for RIP3 Kinase in programmed necrosis induced by RIP1-RIP3, DAI- RIP3, and TRIF-RIP 3 complexes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human cytomegalovirus clinical isolates carry at least 19 genes not found in laboratory strains.

TL;DR: A dramatic level of genome sequence complexity is revealed that may explain the differences that these strains exhibit in virulence and tissue tropism and suggests that wild-type virus carries more than 220 genes, some of which are lost by large-scale deletion and rearrangement of the UL/b' region during laboratory passage.
Journal ArticleDOI

DAI/ZBP1/DLM-1 Complexes with RIP3 to Mediate Virus-Induced Programmed Necrosis that Is Targeted by Murine Cytomegalovirus vIRA

TL;DR: A role for DAI is unveiled as the RIP3 partner mediating virus-induced necrosis analogous to the RIP1-RIP3 complex controlling death receptor-induced necroptosis.
