Nuclear Marginalization of Host Cell Chromatin Associated with Expansion of Two Discrete Virus-Induced Subnuclear Compartments during Baculovirus Infection
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the chromatin behavior in baculovirus-infected cells and visualized the intracellular localization of chromatin by their transient expression in live infected cells.

Co-expression of four baculovirus proteins, IE1, LEF3, P143, and PP31, elicits a cellular chromatin-containing reticulate structure in the nuclei of uninfected cells.
TL;DR: The dynamic structure of VS is investigated using a GFP-tagged PP31 molecule (GFP-PP31) and the spatial arrangements of the four proteins within the induced reticulum were the same as those within VS Reticulum, suggesting that the two reticula are formed by a similar mechanism.

TL;DR: This paper showed that leukocyte cell-derived chemotaxin 2 (LECT2), a hepatokine and ligand of the MET receptor tyrosine kinase is an antiviral regulator that promotes the RIG-I-mediated innate immune response.
