METHODS FOR SCREENING SUBSTANCES CAPABLE OF MODULATING THE REPLICATION OF AN INFLUENZA VIRUS

摘要

The present invention relates to methods for screening substances capable of modulating the replication of an influenza virus. More particularly, the present invention relates to methods for screening a plurality of substances capable of modulating the replication of an influenza virus in a host cell comprising the step consisting of identifying a substance that modulates the specific interaction of a host cell protein with a viral protein required for viral replication as depicted in table 1 or identifying a substance that modulates the specific interaction of a first host cell protein as depicted in table 1 with a second host cell protein present in cellular network of the first host cell protein or identifying a substance that modulates the expression of a host cell protein as depicted in table 1, or identifying a substance that modulates the activity of a host cell protein as depicted in table 1
