No one: @pshahlab: Another musically-inspired review article? Absolutely. The Archer and the Prey, our review on virus interactions with PAF1C is out! Special thanks to @taylorswift13 for inspiring us. Congrats to first author, Matthew Kenaston. mdpi.com/1999-4915/15/5/1032

The Archer and the Prey: The Duality of PAF1C in Antiviral Immunity

In the ongoing arms race between virus and host, fine-tuned gene expression plays a critical role in antiviral signaling. However, viruses have evolved to disrupt this process and promote their own...
