Viral diseases pose major threats to humans and other animals, including the billions of chickens that are an important food source as well a public health concern due zoonotic pathogens. Unlike typical mammals, histocompatibility complex (MHC) can confer decisive resistance or susceptibility many viral diseases. An iconic example is Marek’s disease, caused by oncogenic herpesvirus with over 100 genes. Classical MHC class I II molecules present antigenic peptides T lymphocytes, it has been...
B-cell adaptor protein (BCAP) is a multimodular, multifunctional signal transducer that regulates transduction pathways in leukocytes, including macrophages, B-cells, and T-cells. In particular, BCAP suppresses inflammatory signaling by Toll-like receptors (TLRs). However, how itself regulated what its interaction partners are unclear. Here, using human immune cell lines, THP-1 cells, we characterized the complex phosphorylation patterns of used novel trapping strategy, called virotrap, to...
