摘要:
A method can be used for treating or reducing likelihood of an influenza A virus-induced disease in a mammal. The method includes administering a polynucleotide to the mammal. Theis polynucleotide includes a gene encoding Mx protein having a TRAF2 and/or a TRAF6 binding domain. The TRAF2 and/or TRAF6 binding domain can be represented by the sequences P-X-Q/E-E, P-X-Q/E-X-X-D, or P-X-E-E-X-E. The TRAF2 and/or TRAF6 binding domain can also be located in the Mx protein in a position which corresponds to the position of the hexapeptide PEEESE in the bovine Mx1 protein or in a position which is up to 20 amino acid residues upstream or downstream of that position.
