Tag: RIG‑I. Innate immunity
RIG‑I
RIG‑I is a cytosolic pattern‑recognition receptor that detects viral RNA and activates innate immunity. Its CARD domains become exposed and ubiquitinated by TRIM25, enabling RIG‑I to bind MAVS and trigger interferon production. Through this pathway, RIG‑I converts viral RNA detection into a strong antiviral response.
