Disease relevance of LGP2

  • LGP2 mRNA is induced by interferon, dsRNA treatments, or Sendai virus infection and acts as a feedback inhibitor for antiviral signaling [1].
 

High impact information on LGP2

  • We also found that LGP2, a helicase related to RIG-I and MDA5 but lacking CARDs and functioning as a negative regulator of host defense, binds HCV RNA [2].
  • Shared and unique functions of the DExD/H-box helicases RIG-I, MDA5, and LGP2 in antiviral innate immunity [3].
  • Another helicase protein, LGP2, lacks the CARD region and does not activate IFN-beta gene expression [1].
  • RNA- and Virus-Independent Inhibition of Antiviral Signaling by RNA Helicase LGP2 [1].
