VISA—A pass to innate immunity
Abstract
Virus-induced signaling adaptor (VISA) is essential for host innate immune responses against double-stranded RNA viral infection and viral replication. It is an adaptor that activates the transcription factors nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) and interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3) that regulate the expression of type I interferons. The localization of VISA to the outer membrane of mitochondria and the cellular consequences of its activation implicate this protein in the cellular etiology of neurodegenerative disorders.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
