doi: 10.1128/spectrum.02484-25

Figure Lengend Snippet: ALSV VP2 suppresses IFN-I production by targeting the upstream of TBK1.

At 24 hpt, cells were subjected to the luciferase activity assay and immunoblotting analysis using the phosphorylation and total antibodies of IRF3 and TBK1, along with the tag antibodies. Gray-scale statistical analysis of phosphorylation relative to total protein is conducted.
