In its culture viral infections are constant threats, thus understanding antiviral defences is a key factor for a successful industry. Mx proteins are IFN-induced proteins widespread in eukaryotes; however, their antiviral activity is unclear and the results variable among species. Therefore assessment of the putative Mx antiviral activity in each species is of interest. Our group has recently cloned the Senegalese sole Mx (SsMx) cDNA and in this study its antiviral activity was assessed by infecting CHSE-214 cells expressing recombinant SsMx, with sole aquabirnavirus. The antiviral activity against this pathogen was demonstrated by reduction in induced cytopathic effects, reduction in virus yield and decrease in viral transcripts. These findings contribute to our understanding of fish antiviral mechanisms and open the possibility of using this protein as a tool for fighting viral infections in aquaculture.
