Banerjee A, Mossman KL, Miller MS. Bat Influenza Viruses: Making a Double Agent of MHC Class II. Trends Microbiol. 2020 Apr 20.
MHC class II (MHCII) has recently been identified as a cellular receptor for bat influenza viruses. Here, we discuss the possible implications of viral exploitation of this critical host defense molecule and highlight the need for more intense study of bat-influenza virus interactions.
