Associate Professor at Paris-Saclay University and Institute for Integrative Biology of the Cell 🇫🇷 Team « Autophagy and Antiviral Immunity » Virologist interested in biomolecular condensates induced by viral infections 🦠

🚨Proud to share the preprint from my postdoc in Yves Gaudin’s lab, in collab with Frédéric Rieux-Laucat’s lab. 🧠Our key finding?
 NAP1 plays a dual role in regulating innate immunity. 📌This work highlights how phase separation modulates antiviral responses and explains some interferonopathies. 🔗⬇️

NAP1 switches from an activator to a limiter of interferon induction by trapping TBK1 in condensates

TBK1 kinase is a central regulator of type I IFN production. Upon activation of the IFN-β induction pathway, TBK1-adaptor proteins (NAP1, SINTBAD, TANK) form condensates with liquid properties. We sho...
