FIG. 1.
Diagrammatical representation of select poxvirus-encoded immunomodulatory proteins. Poxvirus proteins that participate in virostealth (orange), virotransduction (green), and viromimicry (viroreceptors [red] and virokines [blue]) are indicated. GPCR, G-protein-coupled receptor; GIF, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor/IL-2 factor; IMP, inflammation modulatory protein; vEGF, viral epidermal growth factor; vVEGF, viral vascular endothelial growth factor.
