NS1 binds PKR

Influenza virus inhibits the host double-stranded-RNA-activated protein kinase (PKR) in several steps. First, PKR binds the viral non-structural protein NS1, an interaction in which the NS1 N terminus is critical. This interaction inhibits PKR dimerization and autophosphorylation, resulting in sustained general protein translation despite the presence of dsRNA. The inhibition of PKR is an indispensable contribution of NS1 to the viral life cycle (Tan & Katze, 1998; Hatada et al, 1999; Bergmann et al, 2000; Li et al, 2006; Dauber et al, 2006; Schierhorn et al, 2017).
