    Proposal model underlying PTBP1 interacts with ZIKV NS1 to inhibit viral replication. Upon ZIKV infection, ROS is initiated, and the HIF-1α signal is activated to promote PTBP1 expression. Meanwhile, ZIKV viral RNA is translated into structural and nonstructural proteins, which participate in viral replication. The HIF-1α-induced PTBP1 interacts with ZIKV NS1 and then promotes the degradation of the NS1 protein in a lysosomal pathway and finally disrupts ZIKV replication.

( E – H ) RT-qPCR and western blot analyses of on-target EZH2 and three gRNA-dependent off-target genes bound by the RfxCas13d-EZH2-g2 complex, with comparisons between non-targeting and EZH2-g2 targeting conditions. RT-qPCR data are presented as mean ± SD ( n = 3). Relative changes in protein abundance were quantified by densitometric analysis and are indicated as red numbers at the bottom of each panel.
