    Evidence of Aberrant Immune Response by Endogenous Double‐Stranded RNAs: Attack from Within
    with Yongsuk Ku, Jayoung Ku, and Yoosik Kim
    Bioessays 41 (7): 1900023. 2019.
    Many innate immune response proteins recognize foreign nucleic acids from invading pathogens to initiate antiviral signaling. These proteins mostly rely on structural characteristics of the nucleic acids rather than their specific sequences to distinguish self and nonself. One feature utilized by RNA sensors is the extended stretch of double‐stranded RNA (dsRNA) base pairs. However, the criteria for recognizing nonself dsRNAs are rather lenient, and hairpin structure of self‐RNAs can also trigge…Read more
