Structures of Arenaviral Nucleoproteins with Triphosphate dsRNA Reveal a Unique Mechanism of Immune Suppression

A hallmark of severe Lassa fever is the generalized immune suppression, the mechanism of which is poorly understood. Lassa virus (LASV) nucleoprotein (NP) is the only known 3′-5′ exoribonuclease that can suppress type I interferon (IFN) production possibly by degrading immune-stimulatory RNAs. How t...
