Abstract

Human MxA (MX1) protein is an interferon-induced restriction factor for a diverse range of viruses, whereas the related MxB (MX2) protein was thought to lack such activity. Three recent papers, including one in this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, show that MxB inhibits human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection.
