Abstract
Restriction factors are cellular proteins that inhibit viruses at different steps of their replication cycle and represent an important first line of defense against viral pathogens. This SnapShot provides an overview of cell-intrinsic antiviral factors, describes their properties, and illustrates the striking variety of antiviral mechanisms as well the sophisticated viral countermeasures.
