African swine fever virus A151R protein antagonizes the antiviral activity of barrier-to-autointegration factor (BAF) by targeting its dsDNA-binding activity
ABSTRACT Barrier-to-autointegration factor (BAF) is a ubiquitous double-stranded DNA-binding protein that compacts DNA and can restrict poxvirus replication in the cytoplasm. BAF antiviral DNA-binding activity is tightly regulated by dynamic phosphorylation mediated by viral and cellular enzymes. For example, vaccinia...
