IFITM3 variants point to a critical role in emergent virus infections

ABSTRACT Interferon-induced transmembrane protein 3 (IFITM3) is a cellular protein that restricts numerous viral infections by blocking virus–host membrane fusion. In humans, there are two IFITM3 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), rs12252-C and rs34481144-A, that decrease IFITM3 activity and ha...
