Interferon-induced MXB protein restricts vimentin-dependent viral infection
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Type I interferon (IFN) inhibits a wide spectrum of viruses through stimulating the expression of antiviral proteins. As an IFN-induced protein, myxovirus resistance B (MXB) protein was reported to inhibit multiple highly pathogenic human viruses. It remains to be determined whether MXB employs a common mechanism to restrict different viruses. Here, we find that IFN alters the subcellular localization of hundreds of host proteins, and this IFN effect is partially lost upon MXB depletion. The results of our mechanistic study reveal that MXB recognizes vimentin (VIM) and recruits protein kinase B (AKT) to phosphorylate VIM at amino acid S38, which leads to reorganization of the VIM network and impairment of intracellular trafficking of virus protein complexes, hence causing a restriction of virus infection. These results highlight a new function of MXB in modulating VIM-mediated trafficking, which may lead towards a novel broad-spectrum antiviral strategy to control a large group of viruses that depend on VIM for successful replication.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
