Inhibition of selenoprotein synthesis by Zika virus may contribute to congenital Zika syndrome and microcephaly by mimicking SELENOP knockout and the genetic disease PCCA
Selenium status plays a major role in health impacts of various RNA viruses. We previously reported potential antisense interactions between viral mRNAs and host mRNAs encoding isoforms of the antioxidant selenoprotein thioredoxin reductase (TXNRD). Here, we examine possible targeting of selenoprote...
