An evolving arsenal: viral RNA detection by RIG-I-like receptors

Highlights • RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs) have similar architectures but unique recognition domains. • Structural diversity among RLRs provides multiple strategies for detecting viral RNA. • Viruses evade detection by exploiting RLR specificity for RNA determinants. • RLR architecture has evolved in...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs) have similar architectures but unique recognition domains. • Structural diversity among RLRs provides multiple strategies for detecting viral RNA. • Viruses evade detection by exploiting RLR specificity for RNA determinants. • RLR architecture has evolved in response to variations in viral RNA diversity.
