Blocking tombusvirus replication through the antiviral functions of DDX17-like RH30 DEAD-box helicase.

Positive-stranded RNA viruses replicate inside cells and depend on many co-opted cellular factors to complete their infection cycles. To combat viruses, the hosts use conserved restriction factors, such as DEAD-box RNA helicases, which can function as viral RNA sensors or as effectors by blocking RN...
