    Snippet: The above data showed that NS1/126-225 blocks IFN-β induction and interacts with TRAF3. Hence, we used TRAF3 siRNA to determine whether TRAF3 is essential for the regulatory function of NS1/126-225 in 293T cells. Knockdown of TRAF3 by siRNA diminished IFN-β promoter activity triggered by RIG-I(N) (Figures 5A,B) . In cells with silenced TRAF3, after transfection of RIG-I(N), the induction of IFN-β was greatly reduced and the inhibitory effect o.....
    Document: The above data showed that NS1/126-225 blocks IFN-β induction and interacts with TRAF3. Hence, we used TRAF3 siRNA to determine whether TRAF3 is essential for the regulatory function of NS1/126-225 in 293T cells. Knockdown of TRAF3 by siRNA diminished IFN-β promoter activity triggered by RIG-I(N) (Figures 5A,B) . In cells with silenced TRAF3, after transfection of RIG-I(N), the induction of IFN-β was greatly reduced and the inhibitory effect of NS1/126-225 was markedly attenuated. Nevertheless, this inhibitory effect was rescued successfully with a TRAF3 expression plasmid ( Figure 5C) . These data suggest that TRAF3 is necessary for NS1/126-225 to decrease IFN-β activity.
