Abstract
It was demonstrated by subtractive hybridization that the infection of a human embryonic kidney cell line with tick-borne encephalitis virus causes an approximately tenfold transcription activation of the RIG-1 gene, which encodes a protein of the DExH/D-box-containing RNA helicase family. A possible involvement of the protein in antiviral cell systems is discussed.
