Do virus-encoded suppressors of RNA silencing reduce plant eIF2a kinase activity and thereby increase susceptibility to infection?
Plant cells inhibit viral infection using a process which targets double stranded RNA (dsRNA), a necessary intermediate in viral infection. This process is known as RNA silencing. Many plant viruses, and some animal viruses, encode a suppressor of RNA silencing (a VSR) which interferes with this pro...
