Orthopoxvirus K3 orthologs show virus- and host-specific inhibition of the antiviral protein kinase PKR.
The antiviral protein kinase R (PKR) is an important host restriction factor, which poxviruses must overcome to productively infect host cells. To inhibit PKR, many poxviruses encode a pseudosubstrate mimic of the alpha subunit of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 (eIF2), designated K3 in v...
