METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR TREATING INFLUENZA

摘要

Genes relating to resistance to infection by influenza virus are identified. The genes and the gene products (i.e., the polynucleotides transcribed from and polypeptides encoded by the genes) can be used for the prevention and treatment of influenza. The genes and the gene products can also be used to screen agents that modulate the gene expression or the activities of the gene products.
